Much love, respect, and work has gone into creating "A Shore Thing" to be appreciated by family gatherings and groups wanting to bond and enjoy Lake Hamilton for its beauty, adventure and peacefulness in a clean, well cared for home. Outdoor security cameras with views of the entrances and exits have been installed. They are only monitored if neighbors inform us of excessive noise (past quiet hours) or parties occurring. We value and respect the privacy of our guests.

Make "A Shore Thing" the location for your next great vacation!

Guest Access:
The entire property, front and back yards are yours to enjoy. We are on a level lot with plenty of room for lawn games and easy access to the water.

This is a small neighborhood. The majority of residents live here year round. Please be respectful of their right to quiet enjoyment while using this vacation home.

The Neighborhood:
We are located just off the main channel on the north side of Lake Hamilton. This makes for excellent skiing, wake boarding, or tubing. We are also just a short boat ride from the famous Sam's Pizza, Bubba's Brews, Fisherman's Wharf and the Back Porch Grill on the lake. Our cove is home to many turtles and fish, so bring your rod and reel and get ready to haul in the catch of the day.

Getting Around:
- 7 min to the nearest grocery store
- 10 min to Hot Springs Airport
- 15 min to Oaklawn Racing and Gaming Casino
- 15 min to Downtown Hot Springs/ Bathhouse Row
- 20 min to Garvan Woodland Gardens
- 22 min to Magic Springs Amusement Park
- 1 hr. to Little Rock, AR

Other Things to Note:
Important: Important: Before you arrive, I'll send a link by email or text for a quick guest verification through my property management software. It helps me keep up with short-term rental regulations and gives guests and homes a little extra protection. If you finish it before you arrive, check-in is quick and easy. Maximum Occupancy is 14.

Guests must be 25 or older to book. This home isn't set up for parties. My neighbors live here year-round, so I ask everyone to keep noise down after quiet hours and to respect their right to quiet enjoyment.

The lake, dock, kayaks, and paddleboards are yours to enjoy. Please use them and swim at your own risk, since I cannot be responsible for injuries.

Entergy lowers the lake each winter for shoreline maintenance and lake health. From mid-November to mid-March, there is no water under the dock.

Cameras and privacy I value and respect your privacy. Outdoor security cameras cover the entrances and exits, and I only look at them if a neighbor reports excessive noise past quiet hours or a party.

Interaction with Guests:
Once you're booked, I'm a call or text away if you have any questions. I also have a handyman on call if something comes up that I cannot resolve by phone or text.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy and also retreat to their own room when they wanted . The owners were exceptionally quick responding to messages, and the check in/ out process was effortless.

Great spot for a good time on the water

This property was perfect for our group! With kids of all ages, being off the main part of the lake was great. They were able to kayak and paddle board without being around lots of other boats and jet skis. We also managed to make time for a movie in the movie room and play some of the games that were available in the house (pool table and board games). We had a fantastic time and would definitely stay here again if we come back the hot springs.

Thank you for a great place for our family to stay while we enjoyed the lake. Your home is lovely and provided all that we needed for a relaxing and memorable time. We used the paddle board and canoes when we weren’t on our own boat, so we appreciate the generosity. Everyone LOVED the media room!! Many games of pool were played while others were reading a book on the deck or cooking in the kitchen.

3 generation vacation

House was set up perfect for everyone to have their own space. Kids loved their own bunk room and the adults their own room with a king bed. We had one 16 year old that had his own room with a queen bed. We had 5 little ones that fished off the dock with hotdogs and caught little perch all afternoon. Game room, pool table, bar area was all great.

Very Disappointing

2 of the main bathrooms were out of service during our stay with raw sewage backing up . Host took hours to respond and it was only repaired on our last day. Porch doors weren’t functional, drier vents hot air into media room making it impossible to enjoy, master hot water faucet wouldn’t shut off…….too much more to list. This was our family vacation for all of our grown kids, grandkids and elderly parents. It’s hard enough to get family together when we all live in different states, then to have our gatherings ruined by a horrible stay. We come to Hot Springs every Summer, but I’ll never stay here again nor recommend it!

Great Home!!!

We LOVED this house so much! The view of the lake and all of the outside seating made for such a peaceful week. The theater room was a hit for the whole group. Definitely plenty of space for everyone and the bathrooms especially were really nice. It was fun to also use the paddle board and kayaks, as well as fish off the dock. Laura was always very fast to respond to any questions I had. A couple things of note for your stay. They did not have a griddle which would have been nice especially for cooking for multiple families. So bring your own if you’d like. Also the top floor was noticeably hotter than the main level. My kids were up there and often complained about how hot it was. To cool down the top floor I had to turn the AC down but then it made it pretty chilly on the main floor. Next time I’d bring a box fan for the top floor or just more blankets for those on the main floor.
