Our family of 12, ages 4 -67, had a blast at this location. Being right on the water, with their own dock, allowed us to rent a pontoon for one day and everyone had a great time. We also took advantage of the on site pool, which has an electronic cover that helped with the amount of debris the storms through around. There was also kayaking nearby, and hiking through Lake Catherine and the Hot Springs National Park. We enjoyed some time in the Hot Springs, as well as the town.
The property manager left us snacks, and some drinks that everyone enjoyed upon arrival. There are plenty of kitchen supplies (spices, dishes, pans, etc) that made cookouts easy and the grill was fantastic. The owner is very responsive via VRBO and was easy to work with. The beds were very comfortable and the AC worked well - hvac in some areas, split systems in others.
Just a few issues/recommendations: a few mini shampoos, conditioners and body wash are not enough for a family of 12. We had to buy more for each bathroom. The internet was spotty at best, even after they sent someone to work on it. Luckily we were so busy with activities this was a minor inconvenience when some wanted tv. The house is beginning to show wear and tear, mold in showers and on shower curtains, and the garbage disposal had a major blowout we had to clean up after.
The area is beautiful, and they even sent maintenance to clean after storms (great service) and not to mention how valuable it was to have 2 washers & dryers
