About this property
• ON LAKE OUACHITA! Two Kings! Three Queens! No cleaning fee!
Welcome to The Boathouse! Our 4 bedroom 2 bath stationary houseboat is moored at Crystal Springs Marina Village on beautiful Lake Ouachita - just 15 minutes west of Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas. Lake Ouachita is a stunning, crystal clear lake surrounded by the Ouachita National Forest.
The Boathouse has a fully equipped kitchen with full size appliances along with central heat and air.
Jump right off the back of the boat into beautiful Lake Ouachita with a built-in ladder off the rear deck to get back on the boat easily.
Access to hiking/mountain biking... The Lake Ouachita Vista Trail (LOViT) travels up, down and along mountain slopes through a mixed hardwood and pine forest, opening up at several places to spectacular views of the lake before you. Beautiful displays of wildflowers await hikers and bikers during the spring and summer months. Along the trail, pits left by quartz speculators and the remains of a moonshiner's still are evidence of the area's colorful history. Plans call for the trail to extend 35 to 40 miles along the shores of Lake Ouachita, running through private resorts and public campgrounds and ultimately to Blakely Dam to the east. (Copied from the Forest Service website.)
Linens and towels are included but you may want to bring some extra beach towels.
Discounts available for jet ski, ski boat and pontoon boat rentals or bring your own boat and park next to The Boathouse for free. Covered boat storage may be available at Crystal Springs Marina for a fee.
Note: The Boathouse is moored at our dock which is located in a wake zone area, which means the boat will rock as other boats pass by. If you are prone to motion sickness, you may want to visit The Boathouse in the off-season when the lake isn't as busy.
