Surrounded by 11 lakes, you'll have access to boating, swimming, kayaking and other water sports right at your doorstep - not to mention 9 beautifully maintained golf courses, professionally managed and operated.

Arkansas family reunion
We loved our week at Bob's large home. Being at the end of the cove was great as it was calm for us all to play in the lake and use kayaks. Lots of space for everyone to enjoy. Loved the ping pong table. Large kitchen helped to prepare meals for our big family. Having 3 refrigerators gave us ease to keep beverages and food cold. It was great having our own dock to play and fish off of. Master suite was roomy and luxurious and all other bedrooms made for enough beds for 12 people. Living room was large enough for all of us to watch the Olympics together

We had a wonderful time from the beginning to end of our stay! The house was spacious, immaculate, and very comfortable. The large kitchen had the drawers clearly labeled so we found what we needed.

Overall the house was great, nice range of dishes, pots and utensils in the kitchen; loads of refrigerator space, space at the table for all of us. Beautiful and quiet cove on the lake, where we spent lots of time on the back porch; even in the heat the breeze kept us comfortable outside there. But I most appreciated the little things: plenty of lighting to read by, nightlights strategically placed, more parking area than expected. The owner was very responsive and helpful.

Fabulous place for family vacation
Our extended family had a wonderful time in Hot Springs Village in this beautiful home. The layout of the house provides lovely views of the lake and places to gather on both stories. The master suite is huge and luxurious. The extra large, well-stocked kitchen was perfect for preparing meals for the whole family, with extra fridge/freezer space downstairs and in the garage. Bob was a wonderful host - he responded immediately to all our communication and took care of everything we needed. We rented Bob's kayaks & SUPs, which provided lots of fun on the lake. We were fortunate to have excellent late-May weather so we were able to enjoy the Hot Springs Village amenities, including nature trails and the outdoor pool. One of our rockhound family members even found an arrowhead on the Magellan Trail!

Father’s Memorial Service
Eleven family members travelled from Wisconsin and Texas for a Memorial Service for our father, grandfather and great grandfather. We sought out a property that would accommodate all of us. Bob’s property on Pantilla Way more than met our wishes. It was clean and well maintained.There were bedrooms and bathrooms that allowed us to have our own space. The kitchen was huge and incredibly well supplied. The views of the lake were terrific. The activity rooms on the lower level got lots of use. We were all very comfortable in this spacious home. Its location turned out to be very convenient fo us. The owner, Bob, was always available and responsive. We loved our stay there and would recommend it highly.

Great family getaway!
The lake house was the perfect fit for our large extended family to all be in one house but have room to spread out. We were grateful we could bring our pups with us, and the tweens and teens loved having a separate hang out space downstairs. Everyone loved the ping pong table and golf room, and the kitchen was very well stocked with every piece of equipment we could need. We spent a lovely Christmas week at the house. My favorite part was enjoying coffee on the porch while watching the sun rise over the lake.

This house was perfect for the 12 of us guys looking to get away and enjoy some golf. The house is spacious and extremely beautiful. It has everything that you would need for a large or small group. The property owner Rob was awesome to work with. The house was located perfectly in the village and close to all four golf courses that we played.
