Everything was just as pictured in the listing. Mountain Harbor is a great boating destination, and this condominium was close by all of the boat docks, and right next door to the spa.

We enjoyed our stay at this lake retreat. It was my family of 4 with 2 kids ( 5 and 8 years old). The condo fit us all comfortably. I loved how we could walk down to the lake for swimming and fishing and how you are out in the ouachita national forest. Unfortunately the pool right next to the condo was closed so that was unfortunate. There are other pools on the property but not within walking distance. The hosts were very responsive and had all cooking utensils for grill and over. It would have been nice to have a few more kitchen staples such as condiments and some spices since food options are limited so you will want to cook. Also I would have like to know that this condo is in a dry county in Arkansas so if you like to have a drink of choice at the lake bring it with you since it is 20 min drive to the next wet county. Overall I would definitely return for another relaxing vacation.

Quick Family Getaway

We traveled to the Mt. Ida/Mountain Harbor area for a quick 3 day getaway over spring break to do some exploring, hiking & fishing. This property was a perfect fit. Great 2nd bedroom with a bunk for sleeping and the video game console for some fun while they wind down after a long day outside. Walkable to the lake and endless options for fishing/hiking within just minutes!

We recently stayed at this lake condo and was beyond impressed. From the moment we arrived, everything felt fresh, welcoming, and immaculately clean. The attention to detail in maintaining the space was obvious—floors spotless, linens crisp, and not a speck of dust in sight.The house itself was beautifully designed, with cozy furnishings and large windows that offered stunning views. We spent our mornings sipping coffee on the deck and our evenings watching the wildlife. Pure bliss.Whether you're looking for a peaceful getaway or a fun-filled weekend with friends, this lake house is a perfect choice. I’d absolutely stay here again!

Best Unit We've Stayed At in Mountain Harbor

Unit was spotlessly clean, bright, nicely decorated. This will be our go to unit in the future. Two Items to Note: Make note of the very accurate walkway pictures on owner's web page. It's a mild walk from the parking lot to the unit front door. No big deal unless you're carrying heavy stuff. Maybe a flashlight for night time if you're not spry and sure footed. Approximately 3 sets of 7-steps to navigate. Also, no TV in master bedroom. Again, no big deal. Forced us to break the bad habit of watching TV in bed. Great TV in living room with quality swivel mount. Super quiet. Ample parking. Easy to find. New, good quality appliances. WiFi worked flawlessly. Unit owner super responsive.
