About this property

“Fun” place! — Exceptional" —near Oaklawn Park, Garvin Gardens and Restaurants

This is one of those neat, special places that you rarely get a chance to enjoy, but please be our guest to do just that.
This is a 1920s cypress and pine cabin that sits on a large lot with a great view of Moonlight Bay on Lake Hamilton.
Our cabin has been thoughtfully remodeled in 2016 to keep the great knotty pine walls and exposed rafters and updated kitchen and bath with marble counters and subway tile.
As you come in the front door, you are greeted with an inviting coffee bar to the right, and you instantly feel excited about seeing the rest of the place -----and it just has a nice feel to it.
The master bedroom has a King size bed and the smaller bedroom has two matching extra-long twin beds.

While this cabin is only 1000 square feet, it fells large and spacious. It has a large couch and TV in the great room. Outside enjoy coffee or a meal on the screened in back porch and enjoy the rock and cypress fireplace in the fall, winter and spring.
In the summer, the property sits on a half-acre of gently sloping yard with that great view of the lake. There is a small firepit for use with firewood also.
There is not direct access to the lake for swimming or fishing. While there is a subdivision boat launch 5 houses down that you are welcome to use, there is not a boat dock to tie up to. You can park your boat in the lake down at the put in and walk up and back though if you have or rent a boat. .
The cabin is only about 3 miles and a straight shot to Oaklawn park, at only 8 minutes away. Magic Springs Water and Fun Park is about 5 miles away also. The property is only about 5 minutes away from Sam’s Club, Lowes, Newks , Bed Bath and Beyond, and tons of other shopping!!!
There is a strong WIFI and the three TVs all are smart TVs.

The first thing we noticed right away was how clean the cabin was! Loved the little coffee nook and we were pleasantly surprised that was fully stocked. The kitchen had everything needed for almost any meal making. We spent most of our time on the screened in porch because of the beautiful view. The hosts were very easy to contact. Overall Great experience.

My wife and I stay at many, and I mean many vacation rentals each year as we love to travel. I must say without hesitation that this vacation stay was top of the best and most definitely a fantastic stay! The little cabin was tastefully rustic from the outside and once we stepped foot inside the modern attention to detail and updates was spot on. It was so clean, the back enclosed deck facing Lake Hamilton was amazing, the bathroom was super clean and the beds were way comfy We highly recommend this stay and we will definitely tell all friends and family that this is the go to and only place to stay if visiting Hot Springs!

I could have stayed here forever. This place is well equipped with all of the comforts of home, and then some. The screened in porch is beyond comfy and a great place to hang out. If you're looking for a peaceful place to stay while you're in Hot Springs, this is it!

Host is super communicative! They help by listing their preferences for the area to get the best experience! Loved how quiet the location was. Kitchen was super usable, we cooked lots! They even have a grill that we used! You can hang out on the patio and see the lake, we even saw ducks! Loved this location and I recommend it highly! Only thing I would recommend would be to bring a fan for your bedrooms because there aren’t ceiling fans (we came prepared).

About the host

Hosted by brian and holly

Host profile image

Brian and Holly here. We have always loved Hot Springs and spent many summers there with our family. We live close by and are excite to share our place with people.

Why they chose this property

As you can tell by the above, we think our place is special and we think that everyone will enjoy it. It is a place that we feel will be good for a couple, or family to enjoy, or even a small group. In good weather enjoy a warm fire on the porch, and spend time in the yard. The yard is big, so go out a play football, or use our crokett set on the lawn, or just sit and watch to lake view and read a book on the covered screened in porch.

What makes this property unique

our place is just that neat cool place that you will fall in love with. It has something for everyone and we think you will want to come back to.
