We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and the property well taken care of. The owners messaged us to make sure we were happy and to make sure we had everything we needed! We definitely give this rental an A rating!!!
We had a short stay here while we attended an event nearby, but we wish we could have had more time and hope to go back someday! The house was clean, and it is such a beautiful location. The owner was very helpful, made the check-in process a breeze, and checked in on us regularly to make sure there were no issues.
Great place to stay and get away, yet close enough to things to do in Conway. Best of both worlds. Great place to relax inside or outside with an open living area and large deck. Debbie and Peggy were excellent hosts and they really care if you have all you need and are very communicative. Highly recommnend!
Enjoyed our time at this well-appointed house on the lake. Had everything we needed to cook meals, sit out on the pier, watch some movies and relax! Perfect short drive to Perryville, Lake Oauchita SP and Petit Jean SP. Great communication with owner. Super peaceful stay on a holiday weekend!

Really enjoyed our visit! The view is so beautiful and very peaceful.
Debbie was an absolute blessing for a hostess. She reached out before check in to see if we had an allergy to cleaning supplies or plug ins... NOT ONE TIME has anyone ever asked these things !! Im highly scent sensitive due to migraines.. I'm just used to unplugging the plug ins wherever we stay... she had it all taken care of before we even got there. she checked in to make sure we arrived safe and said if we needed anything to reach out and many times said PRAYERS FOR SAFE TRAVELS!! The lake house was just what we wanted. Perfect views of the lake... we fished from the dock... maybe 30 minutes from Petit Jean.. we will be back and can't wait! I can't say enough good things about our kind and gracious hosts
We stayed at this home for the eclipse. It is a beautiful location right on the lake which made for a perfect clear view during the eclipse. I wish we could have stayed longer. The home had everything we needed for our stay and we had a great time.
Home had everything we needed. Only needed to bring our food. Location was very peaceful. Host (Debbie) for the property provided over the top guest service. Would definiely rent again.
The lake house was exactly as advertised and we had a fabulously peaceful week. Sitting on the back deck we heard only sounds of nature and could relax with coffee viewing the lake. We were within very reasonable driving distance to visit Conway and Little Rock or to head out to Petit Jean State Park to hike. We'll be back!
It was a home away from home. Had everything one would need to function from a supplied kitchen, to grill, and even toys for the kids. Had a wonderful time with great view of the lake. Caught quite a few fish and made some great memories!!!
What an absolute beautiful place to just get away and relax! There's absolutely no noise and the views from inside the house as well as the dock are absolutely gorgeous. You can get some of the best sunset pictures on the lake! Debbie and Rob were an absolute pleasure to work with. I will definitely be back!
The house, property and lake view was nice, quiet and so relaxing I really enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the swing and drinking coffee and grilling outside. The back porch is to die for. It was so peaceful. The place was easy to find and easy to check in. Ms Peggy was so great to work with.
The lake house is close to Petit Jean State Park where we went to for two of our days there so we could hike. If I go back to that area I would definitely stay here again.
Secluded and extremely clean and comfortable. There is a feeling of home surrounding this place. The only 4 star that was left was probably due to the Vrbo website translation of the property. This property is amazing and the lake view was breathtaking. Thank you to the owner and property managers for the cleanliness and meticulous attention to detail. At no point during our 3 night stay was there any discomfort. A+++++

Serene and relaxing!
Our family of four enjoyed 4 nights at the Harris Brake Lakehouse over Spring Break. It was so peaceful and quiet and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view is stunning and the sunsets are AMAZING! There is plenty of room to spread out sleep comfortably. We cooked most of our meals there and had everything we needed. We just picked up what we needed as far as food and the dishes and pots/pans at the house was adequate for cooking and serving. The daffodils were blooming as well as dogwood near by. It is such a nice central location. We visited Pinnacle Mountain, Pettit Jean State Park and Mount Magazine. We hope to come back here and definitely recommend this house!
Amazing location and beautiful views from the porch!
This rental exceeded our expectations.
The yard has a nice concrete path all the way to the dock. Amazing views that a camera cannot capture. We loved having our adult beverages on the porch as we watched the sun dissappear.It was perfect for what were looking for and we had great communication with the property manager that went way out of they way to make sure our needs were met. The bathroom area was a little small for a 240lbs 6ft man but was easily managed. The location is great. It allowed us to visit Hot Springs, Little Rock, and Petite Jean with minimal driving. We plan to return next year. Also the locking driveway gate was nice.
Lovely home, lovely grounds! Lakeside, and very very peaceful (most notably, no traffic noise except for an occasional boat motoring by.
The house is a little unusual in layout (one bedroom is in the laundry room?), but very open-spaced and comfortable. I was left with the impression that this wasn't originally a residential dwelling, but had some other function and was converted into one. (Not a problem, but definitely interesting!)
The well manicured yard (huge backyard!) offered plenty to do, but in our case, we spent most of our time sitting on the porch, reading and painting.
This is now our first choice for a close-by weekend getaway to relax.
Good place to rest and relax after a day of hiking trails at the nearby parks. The kitchen was adequate to prepare meals. The beds were comfortable. I slept 1-2 hours past my normal wake up time. My family was able to enjoy some good quality time together. Memories made.
Wonderful house that sits right on the lake. We loved sitting on the porch and drinking coffee in the morning. All kitchen dishes, etc that you could possibly need are available. We used the charcoal grill each night. Beds very comfortable. We took day trips to Hot Springs and Little Rock. Short walk through yard to the dock. Pole holders hooked to dock. Only down side is not many fish in the lake as it seems to need restocked. We appreciated the Dish tv available to wind down before heading to bed at night. Overall it was a relaxing getaway and would highly recommend!
If you're looking for a 5 star resort, this is not your rental. However, if you are looking for a comfortable, peaceful and relaxing getaway, this is definitely a great option. Everything you need inside and plenty of outdoor space for family activities and wonderful lake views from the house and deck. Did I mention how peaceful and quiet it was. Peggy was very a very accommodating host. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.
The home was spacious beautiful and inviting! There is so much room in the home and on the property to just relax and let your sole unwind. The owner Peggy was very kind and accommodating to my needs!
We had a wonderful time at the lake house. It was super close to Petit Jean state park. It was so nice waking up each morning and drinking coffee looking at the lake!
This was so relaxing, views are beautiful! Peaceful and quiet. The back deck is the best!!! The sunsets are spectacular. Thank you for such a wonderful vacation! Will be back!
We loved staying at the Lakehouse! We were in town to visit family and were tired of staying in a hotel. We loved waking up to the view of the lake every morning. It was such a great change of scenery. The fire pit was also awesome for when my cousin and her kids came to visit. Having the grill was perfect and allowed us to enjoy each other’s company and not have to go out to eat every night. We will definitely consider staying here again when we come to town!
