The Donald Ross Trail is a gorgeous five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath home, located in the Homestead Preserve's Sheep Meadow neighborhood, and is less than a mile from The Homestead Resort. Sleeping ten, this stately brick home provides all the comforts of home and then some.

Get a good night’s rest in one of the four king-sized beds or opt for one of the two twins. Each bedroom has access to a private bath, as well as a covered porch. Gather in the living room for a family movie night and enjoy the warmth of the fireplace. Cooking is not a problem in the gourmet kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and a spacious island for food prep and mealtime. Dine as a group at the eight-person dining table and then head to the back porch to kick back and enjoy the quiet seclusion of your Hot Springs vacation.

The basement is complete with a flat-screen television, a wet bar, pool table, foosball table, and an integrated sound system that allows music to be played throughout the entire house. The Donald Ross Trail includes Wi-Fi, and we encourage you to bring your four-legged friend, as pets are accommodated for an $100 additional fee.

Great weekend!
Great place for family to gather! Was nice overall, but there were some hiccups. When we first arrived, we were surprised to see a For Sale sign in front yard and dog feces at driveway. Looking out dining room window 3 dead flies on windowsill (obviously not wiped down). Under one of the beds was a balled up plastic bag, mini blind slat broken in another. One of the pool cues was strategically placed to when you picked it up you found out it was broken. We were visited by a couple who was inquiring about the sale! All in all it was a great place, but housekeeping needs to pay a bit more attention.

We thoroughly loved our time in this beautiful home. Everything looked just like it did in the pictures and we even got an early check-in. We loved how close it was to the Homestead and that we could bring our dog. The house is made for entertaining and is set up perfectly. We will definitely be back

Fantastic location, home, and get away- clean!
The property itself was amazing. The rooms were clean and nice sizes for our girls weekend getaway. There were 7 of us in our mid 40’s. Pros: Welcome boxes of toiletries. Every bathroom with shower had a welcome box with trial size shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The boxes were sealed and we thought that was a nice touch. Cleanliness: Everything was clean! Spacious: Large, open Kitchen and living room to hang out. Cons: 1.) The master bedroom had hot water, but some complained that they did not have any hot water one evening to shower. 2.) The beds are spring beds and we recommend foam mattress toppers. I woke up really sore in the mornings. 3.) The doors and window locks. The window latches made it impossible to close. They were stuck open and we felt uneasy about that. They need to be fixed. The doors also (one in the parlor) was broken and took forever to close. You have to lift the handle up, but the entire fixture was loose, making it really difficult to lock properly. We felt uneasy at night about that.

Grand Weekend
Beautiful house and property. We were looking forward to a ski weekend, but the weather didn’t cooperate, however that did not inhibit our stay. The house has everything one needs, well stocked kitchen, lots of big rooms, large open family spaces and a game room for the children. There were 8 adults and 3 children under 8. Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful Property in Hot Springs!
We had an incredible stay over New Year's! The house was amazing -- from the beautiful and spacious bedrooms and kitchen, to the incredible basement / game room -- we couldn't have been happier with our stay! An added bonus was that the property was a short walk to the Homestead resort and a number of hiking trails. Also, the folks at Natural Retreats were very helpful and accessible throughout. Looking forward to booking again in the future!

AMAZING HOME!
We celebrated my mother's 70th birthday weekend in this gorgeous home. The property managers were FANTASTIC and the home and community are nothing short of amazing. We loved the commercial grade appliances and made a wonderful dinner while there! Everything was perfectly clean and ensuite bathrooms were all so very tastefully done. The master bedroom shower was as big as a small bedroom! We will definitely return!

Beautiful house
4 adults, 6 kids aged between 4-14yrs and 2 dogs. Had a wonderful break here, the house is spacious and very comfortable, the basement games room was fantastic too! Stacey was great and checked in on us by text and called when there might have been a water problem in the area and even dropped off 2 cases of bottled water just in case we needed them! Would highly recommend this property, in a fabulous location close too both the Old Dairy and the Omni Homestead for activities to keep the kids busy. Would definitely recommend.

Great house in a great place
Our family stayed here over the holidays to find peace, quiet and time to enjoy one another. The house was a perfect setting for that to happen. The kitchen has everything you need to cook up hearty meals. There are a ton of hiking trails in the area to get up a big appetite. There are 2 bar areas in the house...one on the main floor and one in the basement area. The fireplaces on each floor were terrific. The beds were very comfortable and with a full bath in each room, everyone had their privacy! All round great trip!
