Family-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Ouachita

We rented Dennis's condo for my daughter's 16th birthday. It was everything she wanted! She and her friends went kayaking, swam off the dock and at the beach, relaxed in the hot tub, and made s'mores at the fire pit. There was plenty of space for the 5 of them to sleep (as well as a place upstairs for my husband and myself!). Dennis was in communication with us to make sure we had everything we needed. It was a wonderful experience, and I hope we are able to visit again for a family trip.

What a lovely place! The location is perfect - very convenient, an easy 15 minute walk to downtown, yet it's beautiful and feels very quiet and tucked away. We loved the decor, along with the layout of the space. The beds were comfortable, all spaces were equipped with everything we needed, and there are many very sweet sitting areas to choose from, making it a great place to spend quality time with your people (or yourself). Anna is a sweet and responsive host, and as other reviews mention, cabinets, light switches, etc are are all labeled, making it much easier to find your way around the space. I really wanted to take advantage of the hot tub, but timing didn't work out. We will definitely look forward to staying again!

Loved the house. Beautiful views. Great property, very comfortable and well equipped.

Jessica was an awesome host - responding rapidly to accommodate my family after Military orders changed last minute and our entire family could come together. And the house is a gem! The kitchen is a chef’s dream with double ovens, griddle and 6 burner Thermador professional stove. It was perfect for preparing and enjoying our Thanksgiving meal. The 80” TV/family room for movies and football was just what we wanted. . Great lake-view from a the private corner of the cove. We did not use the hot tub or pool area, but the back deck and grill was perfect for steaks and cocktails. Can’t recommend the place enough for large groups looking to eat, socialize and enjoy Hot Springs NP and Lake Hamilton. It is priced a bit over other spots in the area, but the quality of the home and extra space is more than worth the upgrade to treat your friends and family well. We will be back.

We really enjoyed the beautiful and clean condo. We loved how spacious it was for our family of five..all over the age of 15! We had coffee each morning on the balcony and spent some time playing pool and ping pong in the recreation room before lounging in the hot tub. We cooked breakfast one morning and had everything we needed, plus coffee was there and I was so thankful since I’d left mine home! Would love to stay again soon!

Our family of twelve had a wonderful time together. We used the standup paddleboard, the canoe and the kayak. We also rented a pontoon boat for two of our days. We went to a local quarry to dig quartz for the morning and we hiked to a waterfall in the state park. It was A trip we will never forget. Thank you Erik.

The house was amazing, stayed there with 9 friends comfortably, the hot tub was amazing to have. The house was well cleaned and maintained. Overall it was a great choice for a vacation.

I can’t state in proper words how excellent our stay was. Very quiet, quaint, and the host was on top of everything requested. This will 100% be added to any upcoming business trips. My recommendation, stay for a week if you can! It’s absolutely beautiful!!

the stay was very peaceful. great communication!

Beautiful place to stay! Very peaceful. Our boys enjoyed fishing every day.

We had the best time. This place is just like the photos. The a/c was amazing. It is very spacious. It was everything we expected and more. The hosts were very responsive. We would stay again.

We had a lovely mini reunion at Mark’s place with our two kids, spouses and granddaughter. The house provided plenty of space for the 7 of us to gather as well as have our own quiet space when needed. It was nice to have a dining room table big enough for all of us to gather around. We took advantage of the kayaks and just sitting on the dock. The porches were so relaxing too. We mostly stayed at the house but did venture out to a resturant (there were plenty to choose from) and to Balboa beach a couple of times. I was hesitant to book something as big as this house but it really turned out perfect for us. The only hiccup was that Airbnb did not email us the code to the door but one quick phone call to Mark resolved that issue. I had one other question during the weekend and he was prompt to email me back. I would love to return to this Paradise on the Lake.

Great stay! Would book again!

Ronald’s place was perfect for our weekend getaway. We traveled with our 11 year old and our dog, and we had plenty of room and very much appreciated the fenced-in back yard. The house was extremely clean and everything was as described in the listing. We will likely return the next time we visit Hot Springs!

We had an absolutely perfect stay at Stan’s lake house! The home was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The views of the lake were stunning, and we loved spending time outside enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Stan was a wonderful host—friendly, responsive, and made sure we felt right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily come back again!

The house was very clean and well maintained. Responsive hosts that were very accommodating of us and our dogs. On one or two occasions we were able to hear walking upstairs but they were not during the night or morning. Overall I highly recommend

We were in Hot Springs for a dance competition and the place was great for the chaos that comes with competitions. The kitchen was clean and ready for all the leftovers and food we needed to store and the place was clean and welcoming after a busy day of dance. It is located about 20 minutes away from the arena and downtown area but it is located by plenty of food spots. We were too busy and didn’t really get a chance to enjoy the balcony or pool but it was a nice touch to see the boats from the living room and master bedroom. If we needed to stay in the area again, we would book this place again.

It was a nice and cozy place.

The condo was awesome, just a couple of minor things . I have rented from will before and i have never been disappointed in any of the rentals. They are stocked well and clean and the location of this one was awesome and it was so roomy! Our 2025 girls trip was great and having a beautiful place to stay made it perfect! Thanks Will and I will rent from you again!! Paula B.

The family and I had a wonderful stay here for the 4th of July. Our previous arrangements fell through just as we arrived in Hot Springs and luckily Vanessa was very responsive and allowed us to book immediately. She helped us get into the house and showed us where everything was located. The place was a perfect little peaceful getaway on the golf course and close to town/activities. We really enjoyed the fire pit as well, we were able to roast some smores while they launched fireworks over the golf course. Will definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area.

Very nice property and was better than described. Very comfortable beds and everything we needed for a wonderful weekend stay! Thank you Carla!

The place was great. As others have said, the check-in is a bit arcane. You have to go to an office and get the packet out of a lock-box (without any actual interaction). That's all fine but the office is 30 min away from the place in the opposite direction of how most people come, from Little Rock. So make sure if you're on a schedule to allot 45-60 minutes extra to get north after dropping off the keys. Other than that the place is great, definitely a little water pressure issue if more than one fixture is used at a time so don't plan on having multiple people get ready at once.

Absolutely stunning place. The private stream and waterfall are very private. Host is very helpful and friendly. Would definitely come back.

The communication with Sami was the best we have experienced within all of our years using Airbnb. The pictures match exactly what you will have... no surprises. Sami goes above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and went above / beyond with her special touches. Everything you would possible need is within the condo. No issues and will definitely stay within one of Sami's properties upon our next visit.
