Kids will LOVE our sunroom/family room with two enormous "Big Joe" bean bags and vintage board games & Pacman Arcade too! The grown ups will love the covered back deck with patio seating, a swing for 2, large grill and awesome views of the water. Relax in the Adirondack chairs around the firepit & make your own s'mores! Perfect spots for that morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine under the stars.

Beautiful, quiet location. Large and adequately furnished space to accommodate our group of six adults. Easy access and parking. Wonderful outdoor seating area right on the water. House was clean and well maintained. Host was accommodating and easy to communicate with.

Thank you so very much for staying with us! I’m very glad you had a wonderful time with the kayaks and the fire pit and just having family time, that’s what it’s all about!
We had our first out of state girls trip and chose this property. It was exactly what we were looking for. It was clean and spacious. It had a perfect setup for sitting and having a lot of laughs and sweet memories over a cup of coffee. I would book it again without hesitation.
This is a great location if you like the lake and also want convenience of going into Hot Springs. It’s a cute place in a quiet neighborhood, and the backyard was great for the doggies. Would stay there again!
We do make every effort to clearly post the information regarding winter pool at Lake Hamilton, the yearly water level draw down during the winter season, from November to March. Thank you for staying with us and safe travels to you.
The home was clean, roomy. The kitchen was well supplied with pots, pans, utensils, etc. The location feels secluded but it's close to everything! They even decorated for Christmas!
Retro Ranch was comfortable, convenient, and clean. Fully stocked kitchen with appliances, dishes, and pots and pans. Convenient to the marina and a short drive to town. Had a great stay!!!
