The space
The house is located almost exactly at the midpoint of the main channel of Lake Hamilton, which results in wonderful views of both the lake and Mount Rianti from throughout the house. On the main level, there are picture windows running nearly the entire length of the back of the house and wrapping around on one side. There are also interior windows separating the living room from the sunroom, allowing for a truly beautiful view of the lake from almost every room in the house, whether you are eating a meal at full-size dining room table, prepping a meal on the island in the kitchen, watching TV in the living room, or playing a game of foosball in the sunroom.

The kitchen, dining area, sun room and living are open format, allowing guests to easily move around, while the various bedrooms and variety of outdoor spaces, allow for privacy when desired.

There is both a paved patio area with both covered and uncovered sections, as well as a wooden deck. A variety of patio furniture, a gas grill, and small propane fire pit allow for a variety of gathering spaces and feels, in full shade, full sun, and everything in between. The short distance down the hill to the lake means that there’s almost always a breeze up on the deck and patio.

The property also features a private boardwalk and swim deck, great for sunbathing, taking a dip, or watching the sunrise or sunset. The back yard also has numerous comfortable spots for a lawn chair or a beach towel and several mature pine, oak, and hickory trees.

The house includes a variety of sleeping options. The master bedroom has a king sized bed and attached bathroom with tub and shower. The second bedroom on the main level is on the opposite end of the house and features a queen sized bed, a desk/work station, and a full-length mirror. There is an adjacent ¾ bathroom (shower). There are also three full-sized sofas on the ground floor, including one sleeper sofa.

The third and fourth bedroom are located down one flight of stairs, directly below the sunroom. The first lower level bedroom has a queen sized bed, a window with a lake view, a 43’ TV with Roku Streaming Device, a desk/workspace, and a full-length mirror. The room also has a door the opens to the outside with three wooden steps down to the backyard, just below the main deck, allowing for direct/private access to the lake. A short hallway connects the third bedroom to the fourth bedroom (Note: guests must pass through Bedroom 3 to access Bedroom 4). A shared bathroom with shower with small window with lake view is accessed via the hallway. The fourth bedroom includes two Twin XL beds and a window with lake view.

All bedrooms have closets or wardrobes with hangers as well as folding luggage racks.

There is a 58” TV in the living room with Roku Streaming Device, BlueRay/DVD player, and a gas log fireplace.

The kitchen is fully equipped with cooking utensils and equipment, place setting for twelve (12), as well as an electric range, oven, microwave, refrigerator, ice maker, coffee station (Chemex and drip machine), toaster, blender, and other items to prepare and serve meals.

A full-sized washer and dryer are located on the ground floor and are available for guest use anytime.

Hello! We're glad you're here. My wife Kathy and I were born and raised in Hot Springs, and have lived on Lake Hamilton for 20+ years. We're both now semi-retired. Kathy is very active in our church, loves to knit, and volunteer in the community. I'm active in the local chapter of the Master Naturalists, where I love to lead hikes and educational programs about nature. Our son Joe, who lives in NW Arkansas, also helps us manage the property as Co-Host and keeps his finger on the pulse of the best things to see, do, and eat during your visit. Our daughter Sarah, along with our granddaughters, live in Chicago and help with our social media accounts. In our spare time, we love to travel and visit our children and grandchildren.
