Great place!

This was a beautiful, comfortable tree house. The views from the porch were so lovely. There was plenty of space for the boys and the adults. We had an issue, and the owner came within 20 minutes, and fixed it. It was one of the lo liest stays I've had at a VBRO in years.

Great house. Awesome area. The thermostat shut the unit off at 68 degrees but it still felt like it was 76 degrees. It was very strange.

Beautiful scenery

The house had a beautiful view. We had a great time. The only thing that didn’t work for us was the hot tub had too much chlorine in it for us to use it. Other than that, all was good.

A secluded, bright, clean paradise tucked away in the woods!

My family loved staying here. We had more than enough towels, bedding, & kitchen utensils/tableware/cookware.We loved enjoying the hot tub while overlooking the beautiful woodsy scenery. My kids loved exploring the woods in the back, found lots of quartz crystals!The location was fantastic too, close enough to Hot Springs but still felt like “getting away from it all”.

Wonderful long weekend

The house was a perfect size for us while spending a long weekend in Hot Springs. Very clean and the hot tub is in excellent condition and set at the perfect temperature. Location is very private and just a short drive to Hot Springs.

20th Anniversary getaway

The property was very nice and in a quiet area where we were able to rest and enjoy our time together. It was close enough to Hot Springs and the lake that there was plenty of things to do.

Relaxing Stay

We very much enjoyed our stay here. It was clean, well stocked, and welcoming. We also saw around 20 deer while we were there and my kids enjoyed that. We look forward to our next trip to Hot Springs area.

Great place for family trip

This place was amazing to stay at. Its about a 20 min drive to downtown but the community was so nice and the house was off to itself in the woods. The views were amazing esp looking out from the hot tub. There were deer everywhere which the kids loved watching. The perfect little house!

Great stay! Felt far away enough from Hot Springs center to not feel the business of the crowds. A little bit of drive to get places but worth the peace in the evenings.

Great house, great location!

My husband and I stayed here for a delayed anniversary trip. This is a lovely house that had everything we needed. It is a great location - close to Lake Catherine State Park, Garvan Woodland Gardens and downtown Hot Springs. Plus the home offers simple relaxation surrounded by trees. We would definitely stay here again!

Why they chose this property

The Lookout is a great house to get away for a weekend or a week, or even longer! Everything you need is here. Relaxing on the deck surrounded by nature is a great way to unwind. The fenced in yard is great for your pet. Enjoy an afternoon or evening in the hot tub as well!
