Great stay in Hot Springs!

Came in a week early to spend some time exploring the area before attending a wedding at the Magnolia House. Although the area is still making a comeback from the hurricane, we were able to try Vinyl Pizza, the diner and the brewery in town when not out enjoying some good front porch sitting! Cabin was well equipped. We used the hot tub once which was awesome! Very relaxing stay.

Getaway Weekend

Had a great time at this property on a weekend getaway. The weather caused some havoc but made it an adventure and enjoyed the small town and walking to get breakfast and the small shops.

Perfect weekend trip!

We had a delightful stay over the weekend. The house is the cutest cabin with a 103 year old history. It’s in walking distance of everything that we wanted to do, including experiencing the downtown brewery and pizza place and hiking lovers Leap. We encountered so many interesting people who were so nice and a bit quirky. It was right up our alley. The house is just a few feet away from the Appalachian Trail, and really embodied the feel of the town which I can’t wait to visit again.

Cute Cabin

This cabin is wonderful relaxing get away. Its so close to center of town and hiking trails. It has all you could need, so much so that you dont need to pack anything but your clothes and food. Everything else is provided. My husband and I stayed in 2015 and loved it so much we brought our kids back (13, 17). They had a great time too.

Lovely Cabin in a Small Town!

My family had a lovely time visiting this property! It is steps away from the main street in Hot Springs, everything was walkable. We loved hiking right outside the front door. The town as a great microbrewery and don't forget to do a hot spring soak. The cabin was charming and comfortable. Melanie the owner was so helpful and kind. I would absolutely stay here again!

Great location for hiking

Nice place, spacious & has many amenities, incl hot tub & firepit. Close to downtown and very close to entry to (one of) the entry to Appalachian Trail for hiking. 3 suggestions to make it perfect - 1) better mattress for master bedroom, 2) better internet (might be limited by what's available), 3) provide a keurig/nespresso or basic coffee/tea service.

Birthday weekend

The cabin is very charming with lots of character. Close enough to walk into town which we really enjoyed, the hot tub was wonderful and we also enjoyed the rocking chairs on the front porch. It's an old cabin with lots of charm and warmth, it eminded me of visiting Grandma's house. You could feel the love that used to live there. Melanie was a wonderful host and easy to communicate with.
