Cabin in the woods!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the cabin! It's in a gated community with a large playground and an enormous pool, but the cabin itself is beautifully hidden in the woods surrounded by wildlife! It is close to Lake catherine state park and Garvan Gardens which we love. My son is already talking about going back!

Quiet Getaway

Location is wonderful. The woods around you make for great mornings on the screened in patio, watching the birds at the feeder. Lake Catherine Park is about 15 minutes away. Lots of nature to be enjoyed. Beds were nice and soft. The toppers were a great addition. About 25 minutes to downtown Hot Springs. This wasn’t an issue at all. The drive between town and the cabin is a nice one. Be mindful of the deer as you enjoy the curves. Great communication from booking to checkout. My kids have already ask to stay here again when we get back to Hot Springs. Thanks for the great place.

Great House

This was a great place for my family of four to stay for our spring break trip to Hot Springs. The house was very comfortable and clean. The screened-in porch was very serene. Also very well stocked with soap, toilet paper, coffee and snacks. We highly recommend staying here!

Bamboo House

Very roomy, comfortable furniture and well stocked kitchen. Loved that there was two beds in one of the bedrooms. We had our daughter and two grandchildren with us, more than enough room. Enjoyed the Garvan Gardens Christmas lights. Our grandchildren loved the bamboo down by the driveway…,

Perfect Stay

Such a beautiful home perfect for our small family. The property owner communicated great in every aspect. The home was so clean and tidy, had everything we needed to cook. It was in a very safe secluded gated community that had a beautiful drive down to the home. Perfect distance to Hot Springs and Malvern for our trip. We will definitely come again!

Bamboo Hideaway

We were very pleased with this cottage. It is very clean and comfortable. It is quiet and the lake is nearby. We enjoyed being able to sit out on the enclosed porch in the evening and for morning coffee. We were also impressed with the bamboo patch.

Perfect Diamond Head VRBO!

First, let me say that the photos don’t do this home justice. The actual space is double the size it appears. This home was absolutely perfect for us. The owner has stocked it with everything you could possibly need—and then some! The beds were very comfortable. The sofa and love seat were, too. And they had built-in recliners, which was a wonderful surprise for us, as we had entertained the idea of bringing one of ours along, as our pets like to sit next to us on the footrest. (Out of appreciation for allowing our pets, we brought our own sofa covers to protect them.) The screened patio is lovely. The kitchen is huge, and includes a dishwasher. The bathroom was great, with both a washer and dryer. There were plenty of options on the TV. Motion-sensor nightlights were super helpful. I cannot think of a thing that we needed that wasn’t supplied. On top of all of this, the owner is a wonderful person! We are so grateful that she allowed us to stay in this charming, fully stocked, spacious home with our pets.

As a single mom of three, I was so impressed with all of the small touches throughout the home that made staying in a new place with children ranging in age from 1 to 11 so much easier. We all enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and will definitely be back for a longer stay in the future.
