A secluded, bright, clean paradise tucked away in the woods!

My family loved staying here. We had more than enough towels, bedding, & kitchen utensils/tableware/cookware.We loved enjoying the hot tub while overlooking the beautiful woodsy scenery. My kids loved exploring the woods in the back, found lots of quartz crystals!The location was fantastic too, close enough to Hot Springs but still felt like “getting away from it all”.

Wonderful long weekend

The house was a perfect size for us while spending a long weekend in Hot Springs. Very clean and the hot tub is in excellent condition and set at the perfect temperature. Location is very private and just a short drive to Hot Springs.

Perfect spot !

We really enjoyed our stay and this property. It was extremely clean and easy to steward. Laura, our host, quickly responded to all of our request and included some special treats that added to our enjoyment. The outdoor areas were so peaceful and quiet. The Windows allowed us to view birds, squirrels, and deer in the woods below. Also.... the Wi-Fi, Cell Phone, and TV signals were strong. Great A/C and plenty of hot water.

Family get away

This was meant to be a little getaway from the busy life and enjoy peace and quiet while visiting something new and that is exactly what we got! The view was amazing! Nobody around us, everything in the property was super clean and neat as expected. If you have to pick a place to stay, this is the one. We are definitely come back to this place when we come back to visit hot springs. 10/10 recommend.

Great place for family trip

This place was amazing to stay at. Its about a 20 min drive to downtown but the community was so nice and the house was off to itself in the woods. The views were amazing esp looking out from the hot tub. There were deer everywhere which the kids loved watching. The perfect little house!

Great stay! Felt far away enough from Hot Springs center to not feel the business of the crowds. A little bit of drive to get places but worth the peace in the evenings.

20th Anniversary getaway

The property was very nice and in a quiet area where we were able to rest and enjoy our time together. It was close enough to Hot Springs and the lake that there was plenty of things to do.

Clean and comfy!

Super clean, convenient, and cozy place to stay! I am the one who is always worried about the sanitation of hotels/vacations homes, but this place was one of the cleanest! Clean bed sheets, towels, bathrooms, kitchen equipments, and shining floor let me put my guard down and be happy during my stay. Our goal for this trip was to completely relax so we didn’t do much, but for those who want to explore and have fun this place is 10-15 mins from downtown. They have trails and bath houses as well as small local shops/restaurants. Hot tub was our favorite! It was clean and big enough for 4 of us. Surrounded by tall trees, view was good and air was fresh. We brought our own pillows(we always do) but I felt comfortable enough to come without ours next time, and beds were comfortable as well. Laura was an amazing host to give us prompt answers to all our questions during our stay. It was very relaxing family staycation.Thank you for sharing this place with us!

Wonderful home, relaxing stay!

This is a beautiful, comfy, and clean home. Everything that we needed was provided by the host. The home sits peacefully in the woods…a very pretty setting. The deer enjoy this setting as well. We will be returning and staying longer!

Light and airy treehouse

Step inside this lovely home and you'll feel like you are stepping into a treehouse. The home is surrounded by beautiful woods. Natural flows into the windows. It was perfect for our family of four. Clean home. Cohesive decor. All appliances worked great. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!

Cozy octagon in the woods

The house was so clean and had everything we needed including kitchenware and toiletries. The hot tub was a nice addition for a relaxing soak at the end of the day. We loved how close we were to Lake Catherine and to downtown Hot Springs - there were so many things to do! Our host was really responsive to my messages and left some snacks and a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. Everything was perfect for our family of 5. We would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful 4th of July Holiday

Our family had a wonderful time at this beautiful home in Hot Springs. It had everything we needed plus more (the property manager left us snacks and frozen treats before check-in). She was super quick in answering any questions we had before and during our stay. We all enjoyed the views, the hot tub, cooking outside, etc. Highly recommend giving this place a stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay here. It was clean, well stocked, and welcoming. We also saw around 20 deer while we were there and my kids enjoyed that. We look forward to our next trip to Hot Springs area.

Full of Charm

This house is absolutely charming. It accommodated two adults and two teens well. Tucked away in the woods, it was such a peaceful landing pad after sightseeing. I saw another review say it feels like a treehouse and I couldn’t agree more. The owner was incredibly responsive and went WAY above and beyond. The house is very well-appointed, far beyond what we typically experience in a VRBO rental. We would recommend this home to anyone who is visiting Hot Springs. Close enough to easily get to all the things, and secluded enough to breathe deeply when you’re “home. I’m already missing reading on the deck! We would definitely stay here again!

Clean and peaceful

The cabin was great and very clean and well stocked. We only had a few issues but weren’t deal breakers. The neighborhood had a community pool, but unfortunately, it was under construction. We were said to see this as this was something we checked off when searching for a place to rent. We were also never notified of the pool being closed so that was disappointing to drive up and see the construction. Also, the hot tub is almost unusable due to the location. It is on the lower deck and tucked under the house so it was very creepy and not enjoyable to sit in. It was clean, but the location made it useless. Lastly, there are zero blinds or curtains along the backside of the house. While no one can see in due to the trees, it still creeped out my children who were scared at night with all of the glass open. Again, none of those were dealbreakers. The cabin was clean and was a really neat place to stay.

The Perfect VRBO Rental

Loved everything about it - location, amenities, cleanliness, coziness (we love to be outside and the outdoor patio areas were great!) We had no issues at all and if the opportunity arises again, here is where we will book. The only bummer was that the pool was not in operation but we made do. I highly recommend this property.

My name is Laura. I am native to central Arkansas. I have spent most of my life visiting Lake Catherine. I enjoy spending time with my family golfing, vacationing and relaxing outdoors.

Why they chose this property

The Lookout is a great house to get away for a weekend or a week, or even longer! Everything you need is here. Relaxing on the deck surrounded by nature is a great way to unwind. The fenced in yard is great for your pet. Enjoy an afternoon or evening in the hot tub as well!
