This renovated mid-century charmer, (built in 1960) has a clean open decor that transports you to those magical days depicted on the "Mad Men" television series.

Champagne and cookies await your arrival. Large picture windows in the Living Room and the King Bedroom frame a relaxing waterfront vista with mature trees and ahuge back yard going down to the lake and your private covered dock.

Located on a quiet (non-through) street, a well-appointed and upgraded kitchen, with all the appliances, pots and pans needed, will allow you to cook gourmet food, or heat up delivery meals in this clean three-bedroom home… better than any hotel.

Our favorite Time-Life mid-century cookbook is also provided to give you inspiration and a fun read with some of the best recipes ever captured in print.

The deck, outdoor dining and sitting areas, plus a new BBQ grill, overlook the scenic view.

LOCATION, location, location… 218 Little John Trail is within minutes of The Oaklawn Race Track and Casino, Walmart, Lowes, Gavin Gardens, a family friendly bowling alley, miniature golf, liquor stores, Sam’s Club, and the best shopping options in all of Hot Springs. The Spa City is known for its good food with many quality restaurants. We provide a list of places to dine out, and food delivery options, for your convenience.

Only minutes from the Downtown attractions, including The National Park Bath House Row and spas, the Promenade, and the great hiking trails on the mountains. The Ohio Club and The Vapors night club have live entertainment.

“The Art House on the Lake” offers the most unique, quality 1960s revival experience in Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas.

Great family getaway
This was a beautiful and great location to stay. The water is right down hill from your door. The dock is great to hangout on and enjoy watching your family swim. Your minutes from downtown and great restaurants. The best part is you can retreat away back into the neighborhood that this house is located and just enjoy the quite too. Great place!

Nice house
The house was very clean and the view of the lake was great! The only thing I would say is if you are bringing a boat just know the driveway is SMALL and it’s kind of awkward backing a trailer in. We had to park the trailer and unhook to park the truck beside it. Other than that it is a great place to stay!

Amazing stay in The Art House on the Lake
This house and location are amazing! There is everything you would want in a working home, from baking dishes and every kitchen utensil imaginable to plush comfy towels. When I thought of something I needed in the moment, there it was. It felt very homey yet also chic. The layout is fantastic and our stay felt extra special with the ease and comfort that this space provided. Plus the waterfowl on the lake! We heard bird calls that were so cool and different and saw a myriad of different birds the entire time. So happy we stayed here, it really added so much to our trip!

Great place for a girl’s trip!!
The house was listed accurately and was great for our girl’s trip. The lake view was beautiful and we were less than 5 miles from downtown Hot Springs. The beds were all comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and there were a ton of bath towels. When we had trouble getting in with the code initially, the owner answered immediately and fixed our issue. Would definitely recommend!

Our experience
Super quiet neighborhood with easy access to Hot Springs. Sitting on the boat dock was very enjoyable and neighbors were friendly. Good neighborhood to take a walk in. We were asked to wash towels before we left, housekeeping had left washed sheets and pillow cases in the washer that had soured, we washed and dried them and also started the towels.

Lovely home and great location
The home was so pretty inside! Retro and cool, artsy and comfortable. The master bedroom and living room view of the channel and back yard was amazing. It is not on the big lake, it’s on a channel. We enjoyed sitting on the deck when it wasn’t raining or too humid. Nice big umbrellas on the deck. Did not get to use the grill or go down to the dock much. Weather didn’t cooperate. Many mature trees and birds to watch in the yard. Neighbors were friendly. Quiet neighborhood. Super location, 5-15 minutes to everything around. The yard and exterior could use some love to match all the work done on the interior of the house, but that didn’t matter to us. Really great stay. Champagne and snacks were waiting when we arrived. It served our needs perfectly. Highly recommend!
