We had a wonderful time! They thought of everything. The area is amazing! The house is perfect for a weekend stay and they helped guide us on activities and they were spot on. Thank you so much for sharing your home.
We enjoyed our stay and the property was exactly as listed. Our hosts responded quickly to our questions and even gave us some great recommendations in the area! 10/10 would stay again!!
Great place to stay. Extremely clean, all the wall switches are labeled for function, easy access & parking. Very quiet - heard nothing but the wind in the trees and the waves lapping on the shore. Very relaxing, especially with the outdoor fire pit (hardwood firewood supplied) on the outdoor patio. We'd definitely stay here again when an escape from the city noise and lights is needed.
This comfortable lakeside house was surrounded by a serene wooded area on the lake. The bed was comfortable and everything we needed was there. The property owners were respectful of privacy and a complete delight to communicate with. I would absolutely stay here again.
This one bedroom was absolutely perfect for my husband and I… for our weekend getaway! It was very clean! And had everything that we needed including a fire pit! We were looking for a place specifically on Lake Dardanelle because my son was in the college bass tournament, but we will definitely return to this place if we get the chance!! The owners were extremely friendly and provided information for area. Beautiful home, great stay!!
We enjoyed everything about our stay. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this VRBO.
This house was in a quiet neighborhood. Perfect size for my husband and I. We went to AR on our motorcycle and this house was in a central location for six scenic routes. Jerry and Amy were very welcoming and made check in/check out very easy. The house was very clean and had all the amenities you could ask for. If we stay in the area again we will check to see if this house is available.
We enjoyed our time at Lakeshore Retreat. It was perfect for the two of us and we had everything we needed. Slept very well in the king size bed and the double recliners were really comfortable. Everything was as advertised and the hosts were exceptional.
Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
House/cabin is very close to the owner's house, so if that would be a problem for you, then this would not be the place to stay. The owner's did not bother us and the place is a beautiful property, so if you just want a clean, safe place to stay for a few nights, (with a very short walk to the dock) then this is the place for you. Would definitely recommend this property. Prices were very reasonable for the accommodations!
The place was nice, clean and quiet. The only downside for me is the bedding was very scented and for someone that is sensitive to fragrances, it made sleeping less than desirable.

Hi Sue,
We have never before had a complaint about scent from laundering linens. We really wish you could have made us aware during your stay. We have extra linens we could have laundered in scent-free and changed them for you. We provide our cell numbers along with the entry code in order to promptly address problems.
The property was perfect for us and was very clean. It is in a pretty area that is surrounded by trees and sounds of nature. The dock makes for a pretty view of the lake as well. Kitchen supplies were enough to make some quick meals and the a/c works really well as we visited in summer. The hosts were very kind and made our trip more enjoyable. Mr. Falleur provided me with helpful information about the area such as kayaking and fishing. They also have a binder that lists different restaurants in the area and places of interest. Communication was great and we enjoyed our stay. Mr. and Mrs. Falleur are great hosts and I highly recommend this property if you plan on staying in that part of Arkansas.
The cottage was perfect for my wife and I to have quick little get away. It is right on the lake and close to several state parks for hiking.The cottage was clean and the owners were very friendly andres
responsive.
My husband (Jerry) and I (Amy) have lived in the Russellville-Paris-Mena area for more than 50 years. We have adventured to many places in the state during this time. We have two adult children and four grand children. Our personal interests include: food, cooking, fishing, hunting, hiking, running, walking, water-falling, site seeing, power-boating, scuba diving, canoeing and kayaking.
Why they chose this property
We were living about an hour West in the town of Charleston, I am a radiation therapist (recently retired) I took a locum tenum job in Russellville during vacation from my normal job in Fort Smith. Subsequently, I decided I would like to take a full time position that was open there. My husband was agreeable as long as we could find a place on the lake or with a very good view. He is an engineer for a company in a nearby community. After looking for a house or property in a number of area communities we discovered this property. We cleared it by hand, contracted the building of the cottage to live in while we sold our Charleston property. As luck would have it our property there sold quickly. We moved to the cottage and started construction of the house we live in now.
What makes this property unique
Our clean and modern cottage is convenient to many of the local attractions. It is a 1 minute walk on the trail to our dock on the lake. It offers a quiet peaceful, very low traffic environment. It is close to the town of Dardanelle (6 miles) & Russellville (7 miles) for restaurants and shopping. It is equipped with DSL/wireless internet and Direct TV (smart TV). It is only 0.6 miles off of State Highway 22 in a quiet and peaceful area with plenty of room for trailer parking. 2 miles from nearest boat ramp. 3.4 miles from Mount Nebo.
