Nice and quiet, close to everything in town
We had a great stay. Our favorite part was sitting on the back deck overlooking the creek just watching and listening to the water. We also loved that we were in walking distance to everything in town so we hardly drove at all once we got the Boat House.

We really enjoyed the boathouse! Best part was the back deck! I only gave communication one star because I tried messaging the owner twice prior to our trip to ask a question, and I never got a response.

Creekside stay
Location was great with access to restaurants and shopping. The creek was charming. However this place needs a thorough cleaning. Ants, dirt, dust and feces on the tp holder is a start. Missed a freezer and if only the porch fan had worked...

Charming accommodation right on Spring Creek within walking distance to everything. Perfect place for relaxation and rejuvenation. Going to sleep with the sounds of the creek was magical. This will be our spot to go to in Hot Springs from now on.

Great Room - Very Peaceful
We loved our stay. Sitting on the big back porch seeing & hearing creek flowing was an added bonus. Walking distance to great restaurants & a few shops. The room was very clean & fully stocked with basic needs.

The property location can't be beat and the back porch alone is worth the stay. It's walking distance to everything. The Boathouse was very nice but the fridge and toilet plumbing could use an upgrade. The fridge doesn't keep anything cold so bring a cooler and get some ice. Also, the toilet barely flushed so we had to go off property to use the bathroom if you know what I mean. I tried messaging the number that was left for us to contact but did not receive a response. We would stay here again but I hope they make some simple necessary upgrades.

Just what I needed!
I visit Hot Springs several times a year to get away from the hustle and bustle, enjoy nature at its finest, and take a break from the real world! I've stayed at a few different places and this is my favorite! It is so nice to be able to walk to the restaurants and shops. It is an adorable space and extremely clean! My favorite part is the beautiful deck overlooking Spring Creek. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing place with others! I will be back!

Lovely Property Needs Attention
The Boathouse is in a lovely location. The rushing waters out back are very calming at all times. Both decks were enjoyable to hang out on. Inside the Boathouse is in need of a really good cleaning. Cobwebs in corners and large ants crawling on the walls and ceilings was a bit unnerving. Internet is horrible. We literally had to walk from place to place to have service. I would stay again, but only after verifying its cleanliness.

Very close to the Main Street where the shops restaurants, welcome center, and Appalachian Trail are located. Back deck is right on Spring Creek, where you can sit and listen to the water. We hiked a portion of the Appalachian Trail which goes right down Bridge Street. The interior of The Boat House was clean and well maintained. Only issue was the AC unit. Difficult to set to cool down the place. We contacted Wesley and he came out the next day to correct the situation. First night there was very hot! However, we loved the place and would go back.
