About the host

Hosted by Donald and Diana

Host profile image
We are from Iowa and I have been visiting Hot Springs as long as I can remember. My parents bought this house from a friend of my dad’s parents who lived next door. My husband started coming down with my family in 1978. We married in 1982 and had 4 boys in 12 years. Our boys loved it, every summer we would fill our conversion van with them and 3 or 4 of their cousins or friends to come with us. My poor mother, she welcomed us every trip and with only 2 bedrooms and a hide a bed in the living room and one bathroom. God bless my mother. Our boys have so many memories of their grandparents and our trips here. They now bring their families to make memories with us. It’s not the same without my parents here, we miss them greatly. Mom would tell me she loves to have us come, but it was good to see us go. I totally understand that now. LOL
We purchased the home from my father in 2012 and added the second story in 2015.
My dad died in 2015, b4 the upstairs was finished. My mother would have loved the larger kitchen and more bedrooms and bathrooms. She passed away in 2004. Carrying on my parent’s dream, but with a larger home now.

Why they chose this property

we are from Iowa and have been visiting Hot Springs yearly all my life.
my parents had friends here and purchased this home in 1972. We purchased the home from my dad in 2012. We remodeled in 2015.
We added a second story and 3 more bedrooms and another bathroom upstairs. We have 4 grown boys with families now and they all come down for vacations with their kids. So much easier with more bedrooms and bathrooms. We hope others can enjoy our home and make memories while we cannot be here to enjoy it.

What makes this property unique

we chose this property, well because it feels like home and the view is great, the neighbors could not be any nicer. We drive 10 hours to enjoy our home away from home and it is worth every hour of the drive to get here. Close to most anything you would want to do in Hot Springs and only steps away from the lake. We are located in a quiet cove off the main channel. Great swimming off the dock.
