We can’t wait to welcome you back later this summer! I’m so glad the house was such a great fit for you! We love sharing our little slice of lake heaven! I think you may have given a 1 star by accident...☺️ Only because I know you enjoyed the home/stay and already have plan to return. I’m going to see if there’s anyway for them to change it with your permission. I will be in touch if VRBO can update after the fact. Only because we take our “5 star -service/location” very seriously! But I knew by typing here, anyone that reads comments like I do when selecting a home to stay in, will see it was an error! Thanks again for staying with us and we can’t wait to see you again! Sincerely, Courtney

Amazing host/view

The pictures don’t do it justice..the view from everywhere is amazing…and even though it is located in a neighborhood a neighbors across the lake or so far away and the way the lot of position it’s like you’re all by yourself, absolute peace and quiet. The host was perfect from start to finish from booking through the stay. She didn’t miss a beat. We will definitely stay there when we go back to Hot Springs area.

Lovely Lake house

Loved this property. Great if you have a boat you need to dock or there was a rental available on property too with plenty of water sport options as well. Kitchen was well stocked, there were even lots of kids toys. Clean, beautiful and easy. Great location. Loved everything about it.

Spring break getaway

The kids played out by the store until dark then grabbed flashlights and headlamps and played some more. Quiet neighborhood but close proximity to everything you would need. Home owner really made it feel like home away from home. Highly recommend. We will be back

Fabulous setting

Gorgeous views overlooking Lake Hamilton. So relaxing in a beautiful home with comfortable porches for enjoying outdoor cooking, dining, reading a book. Loved watching Canadian gueese fly over the water every morning! Hosts could not have been more accommodating!

“Happy Place” confirmed

A overall amazing place, even it rained everyday when we stayed. Kids were able to fish on the deck of the boat house rain or shine. It is a lake front house but we also felt like in the forest. A lot of very tall trees around the house and birds were singing all day long. Very relaxing and peaceful place. And inside is very tastefully decorated, very clean and convenience.

Amazing Gem in Hot Springs

The Lake views took our breath away from the moment we entered, and every time we moved to a different room. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the lake activities. Courtney made this vacation perfect with her little touches including the welcome basket, board games, access to lake toys, etc. We can't thank her enough for her hospitality. The home was very stylish and very clean. We highly recommend this home, and will be sure to come back!

Excellent property and home

We have stayed in several properties on Lake Hamilton and this home was was well beyond our expectations. It was beyond anything we could have ever imagined. It was truly amazing and Courtney was very helpful and responsive on everything. All I can say is “WOW”. Nothing in this house, property or location disappointed us at all. FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY, for sure!!!!

A Grand Retreat!

We stay at a lot of properties. This one is a gem. Location- It’s about 11 minutes from a grocery store and about 20 minutes from the heavy tourist areas which is my preference. Pizza & food delivery available. It’s a very quiet and peaceful location! Kitchen ready! We made a meal and were about to make coffee in the mornings. Loved the elegant and modern decor. Beds are superb- very comfy. Family friendly home with toys and games for kiddos and most importantly very clean! Beautiful views, even better in person!

A Perfect Lake House Vacation

Not a single complaint. This house had it all. No detail was missed by the owners of this property. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything and everything. All rooms were beautifully decorated, very clean. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Sitting areas were in all of the right places. During our stay we had 2 families, 6 young kids (fit perfectly in the bunk room). There were toys, games, a basket of books, and lots of grass space outdoors they enjoyed running and playing in. The house was in a perfect location on the lake. We jumped off the end of the dock and paddle boarded without any worry of boat traffic coming near. We used Walmart grocery pick up, which was about 5 minutes from the house. This house is convenient to everything in town, and a short boat ride to marinas and restaurants. We hope to be back next year!
