Spring break stay

The host was extremely prompt in her communications with us. She answered all questions in a timely manner. The location was great. The neighborhood was great for taking walks. Easy walk/hike to the Avalon beach and kids liked the park there. The play house is in rough shape and not as photographed. The bedding wasn’t in the best shape. All said the house served its purpose and we had a great trip. Probably could have been more thoroughly cleaned.

wonderful weekend

We loved everything about the house. It is very functional for a family and the view of the lake is amazing. Only downfall is the journey to the dock. Too steep for toddlers or elderly. All in all a wonderful stay.

Great place for a girls getaway

The house was nice for our 4 night getaway. The layout of the house provided several indoor areas for relaxation. The kitchen was spacious and easy to cook together. The beds were comfortable and had nice linens. There was good water pressure in the showers We were there in October, so we did not spend time on the lake. The wooden stairs to the lake were very steep and the condition was not the best. The dock was larger, but also very basic. The lake was very quiet and pretty. The screened in porch was long and narrow and could use a good cleaning and maintenance. The two bedrooms in the finished basement were connected and there is no door between them for any privacy. We enjoyed the space but it could use a bit of cleaning and updating.

Great location, in need of repair

Positives: Overall accurate as to location and amenities described, bedding and bathrooms very clean. Negatives: The home is in disrepair and photos do not accurately portray the inconvenience of lake access. This place is neglected, torn screens on the patio, broken door, unusable grill, dock fridge does not work, kitchen fridge barely keeps food cool and the ice maker does not work. The stairs down to the dock are overgrown and the kayaks are not watertight. We ended up buying an outdoor charcoal grill to cook outside. Overall an enjoyable stay tarnished by disrepair and lack of TLC to what was once a beautiful home.

Perfect amount of space

There were nine of us who stayed at this property. It had so much space for the teens to hang downstairs, the baby to sleep in the laundry room where it was quiet and adult bedrooms. The only negative for us was through no fault of the owner. There are 144 steep steps to the dock which was a significant task for most of the adults. The steps were extremely slick after a light rain making it too treacherous. We went to the POA beach and had to pay $5 a person even tho we had the activity pass which just allowed us to enter the beach. Note: we travelled with a family member in a wheelchair. We brought our own 8 ft ramp and used the garage entrance to get them inside. The open floor plan and the spacious master bedroom was perfect for our adaptive needs!

Listing Photo is Not Accurate

The location, size and floor plan worked great; however, the condition and furnishing are not as depicted in the online listing. Very few of the furnishings shown in the listing are currently in the house up to and including missing sliding glass door curtains in the master bedroom, meaning no privacy. Patio spaces have screens falling, rotten framing, old ripped cushions, etc. Given the $500+ cost per night, we were expecting, a much higher end home.

Beautiful relaxing lake home

Picked up son at U of Ark for a long weekend. Really happy with house. Nice elevated house above the lake. Plenty of room for a big family, even though only 2 of us. Good for our dog with screened in porch area for him to chill. 5 golf courses within 10 minutes. Eureka Springs only an hour away. I hope to return soon.

Plenty of space

There was plenty of space for the 4 kids and 6 adults on our trip. The dock had a large number of steep stairs to get to the water but once down there the swimming was great off the dock and the kayaks were fun! We had a great time playing ping pong and hanging out on the screened in balcony. Overall it was a perfect place for our family trip.

Beautiful house, beautiful location

We very much enjoyed our stay in Bella Vista. The house is the perfect size for a multi-generational get-together with plenty of space for everyone. The views are stunning. Kids loved the ping-pong table and firepit. Those traveling with older adults or young children should be aware that it is 140 steep (!!) steps down to the dock (not for the faint of heart). Our solution was to rent a pontoon and tie it up to the dock so the grandparents could also enjoy the water. There were some minor maintenance and upkeep issues (Old showerhead in the downstairs bathroom, some broken dock furniture and kayak, etc.) that didn't stop us from having a great vacation.

Family reunion

We traveled from Michigan for a family reunion with 8 people. Loved that the home had enough space to accommodate everyone comfortably. It rained nearly every day so we didn’t spend as much time outside as we hoped but managed a swim off the dock on our final day. Highly recommend.

Gorgeous lake house

A wonderful house for a short vacation in Bentonville! 20 minutes from the Square, quick access to wonderful, biking trails, and a great gorgeous lake! The only thing I would bring up is that it is a lot of stairs to get down to the lake, so if you have old knees, it’s a little bit of an effort. We will be back!

Great Layout

The layout of the house was great. Everything about the home was amazing. If you’re going to spend time at the lake, realize the stairs to the water are extremely steep. We used the guest passes for the beach because our young kids couldn’t safely make the trip up and down the steps.
