Terrific home for a getaway!

Cozy two bedroom, two bath house in the woods with a private hot tub for relaxing and enjoying nature. The property has a beautiful deck for outdoor dining or lounging. Great location in Hot Springs in gated Diamond Head community with access to amenities such as golf course, pool, tennis/basketball courts, playground and more! Deli store located at front gate for food and necessities. There is a boat ramp very close if you want to take your boat out for the day. The State Park is a couple miles away and has a sandy beach great for kids, trails for hiking, boat and kayak rentals available as well.

Family get away
This was meant to be a little getaway from the busy life and enjoy peace and quiet while visiting something new and that is exactly what we got! The view was amazing! Nobody around us, everything in the property was super clean and neat as expected. If you have to pick a place to stay, this is the one. We are definitely come back to this place when we come back to visit hot springs. 10/10 recommend.

Great place for family trip
This place was amazing to stay at. Its about a 20 min drive to downtown but the community was so nice and the house was off to itself in the woods. The views were amazing esp looking out from the hot tub. There were deer everywhere which the kids loved watching. The perfect little house!

Great stay! Felt far away enough from Hot Springs center to not feel the business of the crowds. A little bit of drive to get places but worth the peace in the evenings.

20th Anniversary getaway
The property was very nice and in a quiet area where we were able to rest and enjoy our time together. It was close enough to Hot Springs and the lake that there was plenty of things to do.

Clean and comfy!
Super clean, convenient, and cozy place to stay! I am the one who is always worried about the sanitation of hotels/vacations homes, but this place was one of the cleanest! Clean bed sheets, towels, bathrooms, kitchen equipments, and shining floor let me put my guard down and be happy during my stay. Our goal for this trip was to completely relax so we didn’t do much, but for those who want to explore and have fun this place is 10-15 mins from downtown. They have trails and bath houses as well as small local shops/restaurants. Hot tub was our favorite! It was clean and big enough for 4 of us. Surrounded by tall trees, view was good and air was fresh. We brought our own pillows(we always do) but I felt comfortable enough to come without ours next time, and beds were comfortable as well. Laura was an amazing host to give us prompt answers to all our questions during our stay. It was very relaxing family staycation.Thank you for sharing this place with us!

This is a beautiful, comfy, and clean home. Everything that we needed was provided by the host. The home sits peacefully in the woods…a very pretty setting. The deer enjoy this setting as well. We will be returning and staying longer!

Light and airy treehouse
Step inside this lovely home and you'll feel like you are stepping into a treehouse. The home is surrounded by beautiful woods. Natural flows into the windows. It was perfect for our family of four. Clean home. Cohesive decor. All appliances worked great. Couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!

Cozy octagon in the woods
The house was so clean and had everything we needed including kitchenware and toiletries. The hot tub was a nice addition for a relaxing soak at the end of the day. We loved how close we were to Lake Catherine and to downtown Hot Springs - there were so many things to do! Our host was really responsive to my messages and left some snacks and a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. Everything was perfect for our family of 5. We would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful 4th of July Holiday
Our family had a wonderful time at this beautiful home in Hot Springs. It had everything we needed plus more (the property manager left us snacks and frozen treats before check-in). She was super quick in answering any questions we had before and during our stay. We all enjoyed the views, the hot tub, cooking outside, etc. Highly recommend giving this place a stay!

Full of Charm
This house is absolutely charming. It accommodated two adults and two teens well. Tucked away in the woods, it was such a peaceful landing pad after sightseeing. I saw another review say it feels like a treehouse and I couldn’t agree more. The owner was incredibly responsive and went WAY above and beyond. The house is very well-appointed, far beyond what we typically experience in a VRBO rental. We would recommend this home to anyone who is visiting Hot Springs. Close enough to easily get to all the things, and secluded enough to breathe deeply when you’re “home. I’m already missing reading on the deck! We would definitely stay here again!

Clean and peaceful
The cabin was great and very clean and well stocked. We only had a few issues but weren’t deal breakers. The neighborhood had a community pool, but unfortunately, it was under construction. We were said to see this as this was something we checked off when searching for a place to rent. We were also never notified of the pool being closed so that was disappointing to drive up and see the construction. Also, the hot tub is almost unusable due to the location. It is on the lower deck and tucked under the house so it was very creepy and not enjoyable to sit in. It was clean, but the location made it useless. Lastly, there are zero blinds or curtains along the backside of the house. While no one can see in due to the trees, it still creeped out my children who were scared at night with all of the glass open. Again, none of those were dealbreakers. The cabin was clean and was a really neat place to stay.

The Perfect VRBO Rental
Loved everything about it - location, amenities, cleanliness, coziness (we love to be outside and the outdoor patio areas were great!) We had no issues at all and if the opportunity arises again, here is where we will book. The only bummer was that the pool was not in operation but we made do. I highly recommend this property.

Safe, Clean, and Cute Under the Treed
A great trip. The property met and exceeded all expectations. Everything worked, which is odd, remotes, fans, lights, hot tub... everything. Such a surprise! Hot tub was clean, functioning and seemed to have correct chemicals. Property manager/contact was extremely helpful, prompt, responsive, etc. The 15min drive to downtown Hot Springs goes by in a flash due to beautiful country side. The front gates to the community worked perfectly once we got it down. We felt safe and private for our entire stay. We loved the property design and decor. They even had a bottle of wine waiting for us. One of our best Vrbo experiences. We were talking about booking another visit before we even left.

Peaceful Getaway
I walked in and was very shocked at how clean the property was. It is definitely the cleanest place that I have ever stayed. I also was very pleased with all the things that were included. Plenty of trash bags, towels, dishes, toilet paper, soap, tooth brushes, tooth paste, etc. All that we really needed to bring was food, clothes, and drinks. Overall very impressed and would definitely stay again! The master bed was very comfy as well.

Cozy getaway
My sisters and I stayed here for our annual girls trip. It was such a cute and quaint atmosphere that far exceeded the listing! Laura was so accommodating and quick to respond to anything I threw at her. There was a slight hiccup after our first night in the hotub the next morning it wasnt warming however she responded and it was fixed and taken care of within the hour! With goodies left at our door. We have stayed at many vrbos and i will say have never had a host this thoughtful to detail and quick with responses. My husband and I would definitely come stay here. Definitely a secluded romantic and charming vibe!

Five nights in the woods - in comfort
This property was exactly as listed. On a dead-end street nestled into the surrounding woods. It was quiet, no through traffic, very clean and up-to-date, with well-stocked kitchen and bath. The hot tub worked like a charm and was a welcome refreshment from sight-seeing. We loved it. You will, too!
