We were happily surprised to find the cabin better than expected. The view was amazing while enjoying the hot tub and fire pit. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed and more. Cannot say enough about this place. Already booking my next stay.

Wonderful!

The home was perfect for our family of five, including our toddler. We appreciated the pack n play and kid dishes and utensils! Exactly as pictured and described, and very clean. We ended up cooking most meals at home and were able to find everything needed! If we come back to hot springs, will definitely rebook!

Absolutely amazing

I wish I could give this place more stars. The view was absolutely amazing, the cabin itself was beautiful, and the host was very responsive. The beds were so comfortable, there is plenty of room. After a good nights rest waking up to drinking coffee on the back porch with an amazing view, what better way to spend your weekend! We will be back, and anyone still deciding, you will not regret your stay in this cabin!

Best VRBO I’ve ever stayed at.

This place is an absolute dream. The view and hot tub alone make it a 10/10. We spent every evening on the decks, singing around the fire-pit, and in the hot tub. We cooked a lot of meals in the awesome kitchen that was chock full of anything you could possibly need to make a gourmet meal. The beds were wonderfully comfy and the fans silent. We had planned far more activities than we got to, simply bc we enjoyed being at the home so much. We were all sad to leave it. Can’t recommend this enough!!!

Family gathering

Property was as nice as advertised. Hot tub and fire pit were excellent setups for younger part of our crew. Plenty of room for the 10 of us. Kitchen was well equipped for much more than our limited needs. Very clean. Property owner was very responsive and helpful. Recommend this property for anyone not needing directly on the lake.
