Hot Springs ON Hamilton-Swim & Boat Dock in COVE - 4BR 3.5 BA- 7S - Waterfront
Welcome to HillHouse on Hamilton located in Hot Springs, AR! Come enjoy our lakefront home on a quiet cove and in desirable 7 south area and on one of the best spots on the lake (located in area near Fisherman’s Wharf and multiple marinas)! EASY walk to the water! We have lake views from almost every spot in the house! Separate swim and boat dock available to use and plenty of yard area to play on! For our race fans it’s also an easy 5 mi drive to Oaklawn (head on Higdon Ferry and you’re there!)
Our home is 2800 sf and located on a cove that enters directly into the main channel of Lake Hamilton. When you're not enjoying the lake, the home is located right on the main strip of Hot Springs and gives direct access to shopping, grocery stores, restaurants, family activities, Oaklawn, Garvan Woodland Gardens, and so much more!
Lake is easily accessible from home through lower level of home or from the side of home. Yard gently slopes to the lake providing an easy walk to the water. Home has a swim dock and boat dock available to use (all guests are able to tie up to outside of boat dock at any time; covered part of boat dock available for guests bringing a boat during the duration of their stay if notified in advance). There are two covered back porches that extend the length of back of home.
This home is a two level home. There are lake views from all living areas and all bedrooms with king beds. We have two back decks that extend the length of the home. There are two separate living areas. The main level has the master bedroom (king bed)/master bathroom with soaker tub, half bath, living room, dining room, kitchen, and laundry room. Area you walk into is open concept (kitchen, dining, and living room). Dining room has a large table that seats 8 and a breakfast nook that seats 6. washer and dryer are available to use. There are TVs located in both living areas and in all bedrooms with king beds (no TV in bunk room). Wifi is available with streaming services loaded onto televisions. Home does provide live TV via streaming television service. For those staying in our cooler season, we do have a functioning fireplace in the main living area. The fireplace in the lower level living room is nonfunctional.
Stairs lead down to lower level (which goes to the lake). Lower level has 3 bedrooms (two king beds, two twin over full bunk beds), and two full bathrooms (shower/tub in one bath; shower only in second bath). There is also a full sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress in the living area downstairs. (Bed coverings/pillows may vary from photos) We do have an alexa dot located in both living areas. They do have the ability to have the microphone turned off or you may unplug them.
Parking available: No street parking. Parking available at top of driveway for any vehicle type (3 spots) - steps with rail leading to home. May park at driveway entrance if needed. Parking available in front of home for front wheel or AWD/4WD (2-3 spots) under normal conditions. Driveway has incline (see photo). If conditions are wet we recommend AWD/4WD for parking in front of home. If conditions are icy, use only parking available on top of property. Please use judgment on appropriate parking arrangements. We do allow children but home is not baby proofed. There are stairs present (no gates), fireplace, and balcony on both levels. Please use own discretion.
Please note: Lake Hamilton is lowered by Entergy starting in November and annual refill begins around March 1st and is typically set to be completed by the 15th at the latest. For any bookings that begin at the end of October and have a departure date in November, we are unable to move our boat from the covered area, as it must be on the lift when the lake is lowered, but guests can tie to the outside of the dock until November 1. From November 1 - March 15, unable to tie boat to dock until lake refilled.
New changes to how items are listed in quote from platform: when going to price quote for our home, what is listed as host fee is what previously used to be listed as cleaning fee and where those funds are fully used for.
After booking is completed we ask to review house rules. There will also be a short term rental agreement that will be sent and will need to be signed, as well as a copy of a government issue ID will need to be provided. We will message you once the rental agreement has been sent to you.
There are security cameras located at exterior entrances of home (front and back) for the safety of our guests and property. There are NO cameras located within the home. There is also a camera located in a locked outdoor area that is inaccessible to guests.
Please note that our listing does state we can accommodate 12 guests but for our adults only groups - we recommend 8-10 adults due to our bedding availability, as we want to ensure all guests are able to sleep comfortably. Our bedding arrangements are: king beds x3, bunk beds x 2 (twin on top / full on bottom = 2 twin beds total, 2 full beds total), and a sleeper sofa with a full size mattress. We also want to make aware that the home is not baby proofed (no gates are provided for stairs).

Lake was beautiful even in January. It was a nice little getaway. Quiet area but not too far from the casino or town. Hosts were quick to respond and made our stay very pleasant.
This house is spotless and way more beautiful and new than the pictures look. The house has everything you need. All the essentials were fully stocked. Every applicant is high-ended.We love it and enjoy our living there. The host also replied very quickly and is very responsible. Be careful about the steep drive way. 4W vehicle is definitely needed if you want to park near the garage instead of the upper parking lots.
This was by far the best Home we have rented on VRBO. Fabulous communication with the owners. Well stocked home highly exceeded anything we have had in the past. Beautiful lake front property with plenty of space in this 4 bedroom home for a larger family vacation. One of my favorite features is the multiple level decks that overlook the property/Lake. The one thing I would say is this property is best accessed with a 4wheel drive or awd vehicle for the driveway to the home. This home is very close to all the stores in town and things to do. Thank you so much for a great home on the lake to make memories with our parents.
We loved our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner. A lovely home in a lovely area. Plenty of room for kids and grandkids
Great place to stay. Close to the attractions but far away enough for privacy. Great house and great time. Well stocked and great communication. Highly recommend
beautiful comfortable and clean home on lake hamilton. kitchen is well stocked with spices, storage bags, foil etc.
host is very helpful super fast to respond to any questions.
loved every minute of our stay and would not hesitate to book again!
This house was lovely. We had a large family group and enjoyed the outdoor space and the comfortable beds. The pictures were very accurate and the space was very accommodating. Thank you!
We have stayed in many properties on lake Hamilton over the years and this is by far the best! It was immaculately clean and had everything you would need supplied for you. The owners were very helpful and accommodating. We will be back!
We couldn’t have been more pleased. Everything was as presented on the website. Definitely the best home we’ve ever booked. The hosts were so attentive and helpful in making our stay everything we hoped. This is definitely the place to stay if you’re going to Lake Hamilton. We’ll definitely be coming back.
Perfect place for a vacation. Everything was as described there’s no need to bring anything. Kitchen fully stocked, two living areas, plenty of space for everyone. The beds were very comfortable. The location you just can’t beat it’s close to everything. The hosts are very friendly and checks in to make sure everything is ok. We will definitely book here again in the future.
The spacious accommodations were perfect for our group, allowing for separate congregating spaces for adults and teen children.
The house was immaculate and every essential was provided for- plenty of linens, towels, Kleenex, kitchen supplies etc.
The view was perfect with plenty of outdoor deck seating.
If life brings us back to Arkansas we would definitely choose this property again.
After our other VRBO cnxl , we call last sec trying to save our grandsons graduation trip. Not only did the host help us out, the house was more than anyone could expect. Really, really clean, great and clear direction on use of the property. Just all great! We will absolutely recommend staying there.
The house is excellent! It has everything you need! It was very clean. Perfect for our group! The owners are so nice. They respond right away when you have a question. Don’t let the driveway scare you!!! It is steep, but very doable. Perfect location! We would definitely rent again!!
Loved the property. Fit our group perfectly with three-plus bedrooms, three bathrooms. Location to town was a huge plus as well.
Kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked with everything you might need for an overnight stay.
We wanted for nothing but knew the owners were just a message away should we encounter any issues. Loved our time in the house…could not have asked for a better experience! Thank you!
This property is gorgeous. The view is so peaceful and just what we needed to relax. I’ve never rented a VRBO that was so well stocked. We did not have to run out for paper towels, toilet tissue, dish soap, etc. They even had tissues in the bathrooms. They provided lots of beach towels. The array of water toys was such a huge help with the boys.
I love this house and the hosts were very easy to communicate with. They deserve an AAAplus.
This was our second time to stay here. The host is very communicative and helpful. The house is very clean and well stocked. We have stayed in probably 10 different vrbo and this house was the best at providing everything you need. The beach towels, life vests, and swim floats were such a great help. We had kids ages 5,10,13 and 14 and all found a life vest that fit. The kids fished right off the dock and caught probably 30 little sunfish. This kept them busy for hours. We rented a boat and having use of the covered boat dock was helpful. Beds were comfortable. The 2 living areas was great as kids got their own space downstairs to watch movies and adults had their space upstairs. The walk down to the water was easy. The location on the cove is perfect for kids to swim safely. The only thing that could improve the stay would be an umbrella on the swim dock as it does get warm with no shade. We ate at Fisherman’s Wharf twice as it is very close to the house and good. We will be back!
