Octagon house nestled in the woods w/ lots of deer, birds, & wildlife

A 2 bedroom 11/2 bath octagon house nestled in the woods offers a unique architectural experience, harmoniously blending with the surrounding nature. This eight-sided structure, provides panoramic views of the forest, allowing guests to feel immersed in the tranquility of the wilderness. Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of birds chirping and the sight of deer grazing nearby. Such a home serves as a peaceful retreat, a sanctuary where the boundaries between the indoors and the outdoors are beautifully blurred, creating an intimate connection with the natural world. It has exposed ceiling beams, beautiful wooden floors, multiple wrap-around decks, & large fire pit for family gatherings.. Just minutes from everything Hot Springs has to offer. No steps necessary to enter the house. Can park at the top of the hill and walk right in.
Has a community pool, tennis courts, frisbee golf, 18 hole PGA golf course, & walking trails. Just 20-25 minutes from the Oaklawn racetrack and Casino. It's only one mile from the Lake Catherine State Park. Come enjoy this peaceful sanctuary!

Woodsy retreat
At first we weren’t sure about this place. It is secluded and further away from town than we had imagined. This is an older property and first impressions included an odor when first entering. I had planned on calling about the odor but by the next day it had either dissipated or we got used to it. It ended up not affecting our stay. The best part of this spot is the privacy. You can’t see another property. Loved the fire pit and that they provided wood. The more often we drove to town the shorter the drive felt. Really is 20 minutes to everything.

Beautiful Location
Our family had beautiful stay at this serene location. This house is nicely setup with great views of nature and greenery, through their surrounding glass windows. The location of the house great and it is very close to all the activities in the area. Thanks to Sheri for handling the check-in process in person and giving us recommendations about the local places. The property is nicely situated on a Lake Catherine, You cannot access the water/lake from this neighborhood. Wish there is a way to access to water just to sit and enjoy the water. We felt the house is small, It will be apt for one family (of 4) only.

Fabulous cottage nestled into a forest hillside. Very clean and appealing decor. Perfect for our two night stay during Arkansas Derby week. Owner and property management both first rate and professional. What you see is what you get…can’t say that about some of my rentals in the past. Highly recommend!!

This property was perfect for our weekend getaway to Hot Springs. It was secluded and quiet, yet close to eating and entertainment. It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We loved the octagonal design of the house and the views from all the windows.

In nature without being in the middle of no where
I took my mom and nephew to this cabin for a weekend stay and it was amazing. The location was great - it felt like you were deep in the forest and hills but you really were close to several nice amenities. The only thing that was a bit wild was the driveway - very steep but I did manage to get my moms Jeep and my Challenger in and out without any issues. Would have been great to spend a few more days here when they weather wasn't quite so warm and enjoy the outdoor seating!

Didn’t Know If We Really Had A Place To Stay For Awhile
We didn’t know if we had a place to stay for awhile when we got into town. That was quite concerning with all the scammers out there now. The keys were not left as we were told. Fortunately, after going back and forth from the management office to the cabin and several calls I thought to ask the person at the gate if she knew who to contact. She gave me the management company owner’s number. He had me go back to his office to pick up the keys. I think I would have brought the keys to the cabin. I received lots of excuses from him and his step-daughter. Fortunately, the cabin was as nice as the pictures because there was no electricity to half the complex for awhile. We were happy it was back on when we returned from dinner. I know you’re supposed to relax and not work on these trips but the three of us have the type of jobs that require us to work even when we’re not at work. There was no wi-fi as stated. Instead of using lap tops or iPads we worked from our phones. I I said we enjoyed the cabin. We enjoyed our stay but had to work around a couple of things in the beginning.

Lovely setting in yurt-like home
My family and I enjoyed our stay in this cool, yurt-like home near Hot Springs. It's surrounded by tons of oak and pine trees which offer opportunity to see a bit of wildlife. The house comes fully equiped and we wanted for nothing. We played with a lot of the games provided and had a blast! The beds are firm, just so you're aware. Also, because of the design, voices and lights carry throughout the home. It's about a 25 min drive into downtown Hot Springs but it's a scienic drive thru the country. The house is in Diamondhead subdivision which is super close to Lake Catherine, a very family friendly spot for swimming and canoeing. Overall, a great spot for a weekend getaway.
