There was plenty of room to spread out and get together. David and Connie were very involved whenever we needed their assistance. Everyone was very pleased to have rented this house!

Bella Vista Annual

Third time staying at this property. Everything was great with the property. The depth of the water is shallow on this side of the lake but that can’t be changed. We just went out a little farther to swim. Love the updates to the home since last time we were there. Great property for a large family or outing.

Fantastic stay!

Our annual family gathering is enhanced by the accommodations at The Lake House at Bella Vista. We look forward to returning each year, and the littles get excited about what they remember from last year as they explore the grounds each new year. Connie is such a gracious, kind, helpful, and wonderful host. She really cares about your stay and does such a great job at facilitating our gatherings, and we leave with cherished memories. The accommodations are thoughtful, a great fit for our growing family, and always so very clean. We absolutely love our time at The Lake House at Bella Vista and are already looking forward to next year!

Fantastic

House was perfect for our needs! The house is stocked with anything you could need, there is plenty of comfortable seating for everyone with views in every room. The walkout to the lake is great, a nice easy grade. Note that the water is very shallow there - great for kids to swim, but too shallow for jumping off dock. We caught several bass right there off the dock. Connie is a fabulous host and we will absolutely stay again!

Awesome first visit in Bella Vista!

Our stay and visit was a wonderful experience! Connie left the lights on for us and set the temperature to a perfect temperature knowing that we had a several hour flight delay and would not get in until after midnight. She communicated with us the following day to check in and to let us know if there was anything we needed to let her know. The house was very clean and beautiful! The water front with private dock was stunning! We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and felt so comfortable in the home. We will be going back to visit since I bought property in Bella Vista and will start building there after the first of the year. It was truly a positive experience all around! Thank you Connie for making us feel so welcome in your home!!

Paradise for 3 generations to relax and have fun

Connie's beautiful lake home served as the venue for my husband and me to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary surrounded by our three adult children, their spouses, and our 2.5-year-old granddaughter. The layout of the two-story home is ideal for people of all ages to feel right at home. Spacious, beautifully-furnished bedrooms with quality mattresses and private bathrooms provide plenty of comfort and privacy, while numerous gathering places, both indoors and out, beckon groups of various sizes to talk, watch movies, play games, or just enjoy the lake view. We appreciated Connie's accessibility and her desire to be sure we had everything we needed. It is impossible to sum up in words what our week in Connie's home meant to my family, but one thing is sure: we will be back!

Fantastic property and a great experience. Perfect weekend spot for our guys' trip with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. We took advantage of the local nature scene, but spent most of our time enjoying this great property on the lake. We had all we needed including a grill, big kitchen, lots of outdoor seating and even a comfortable patio set up on the dock. Our host Connie was so welcoming and quick to respond to any questions we had. Definitely recommend and hope to go back again!

Exceptionally clean and well stocked house. We loved that each room had its own bathroom, it makes it easier when you have families that need their own space. This was perfect for our aging parents that could stay on main floor that had only one small step to enter the house. Our adult children and grand children loved the downstairs space, they had plenty of room. The game room located on main floor was lots of fun for the grandkids. Everything labeled in the house and was easy to locate. We loved that the house had plenty of comfortable seating, this isn’t typical in a vacation rental. Everyone also said their beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. All the showers had good pressure and all are updated except the main master bedroom shower is outdated. We will definitely be coming back to enjoy the house and lake since we were unable to for this visit because we were in town celebrating my son’s wedding.

About the host

Hosted by Connie Jaquess

Host profile image
Originally from Texas, David and Connie started a Christian camp in Capitan mountains of New Mexico in 1991 called Fort Lone Tree. In 1998, they then moved to Oklahoma to live and work as the Executive Director at New Life Ranch near Siloam Springs, AR for 16 years. They retired and moved to Bella Vista the end of 2014. They love Bella Vista: the beautiful area and all the exciting things to see and experience. David passed into the presence of the Lord May 12, 2023 after a 4 year journey of thyroid cancer. Connie continues to host and maintain their lovely Lake House at Bella Vista.

Why they chose this property

David and Connie fell in love with the property when they first bought it in 2005. They were looking for a unique place to move to when they retired from New Life Ranch. They both loved the wonderful views of the lake from almost every room. They appreciated the easy slope to the lake from the house. They love sitting out on the hanging red chairs or deck enjoying the soothing view of the lake. The grand kids all love fishing and swimming off the dock or a boat ride on the seldom busy lake.

They purchased "The Lake House at Bella Vista" in 2005 with the intent to retire but in the meantime put the home in the rental market through Vacation Rentals in Bella Vista. Upon retirement, they decided to buy another house in the area to live and handle the rental of The Lake House at Bella Vista themselves. They love meeting many of the "new friends" who enjoy this comfortable home.

What makes this property unique

It has a wonderful floor plan that invites family and friends to spread out for intimate conversation or gather together to celebrate special times. We have even hosted an outdoor wedding and casual receptions.

There are two separate living areas. The casual upstairs living room has a fabulous view, gas fireplace, a 65" big screen TV, and comfortable seating. The downstairs den has a "fisherman's
cave" feel with a 70" big screen TV, comfortable seating, a game tables, a gas fireplace and a wonderful view of the lake.

Each bedroom has it's own TV and bathroom, very comfortable beds, electric fireplace and sitting areas. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of seating in the dining room of the Bella Vista room.

The game room is a favorite for many along with the outside games of horseshoes, bean bag toss, and ladder ball.

Connie likes to call her home "classic casual comfort". We hope it becomes your "home away from home:!
