Photos and Description of the Hot Springs vacation house rental
House, 5 Bedrooms, 4.5 Baths, (Sleeps 12)

NEWS FLASH! Its here, that New Boat Dock and the hot tub is now completed as well. From the instant you enter the driveway of Villa Belvedere you will be met with the feeling of entering a villa in central Italy. European elegance with its old world charm surrounds you in this beautifully decorated 4,500+ square foot home featuring a protected main entrance. As you open the large wrought-iron front door you will step into a spacious foyer located between the great room with its 23' ceiling on the left and the parlor on the right. Solid luxury and comfort is evident from the wrought iron railings and lighting fixtures, variable lighting controls, 10' ceilings, 8' walnut-stained knotty alder doors, and partially filled, chiseled-edge, travertine tile (versaille pattern) on the main floor. Also on the main level is the large gourmet kitchen with all stainless steel appliances, a large island suitable for socializing and food preparation, granite counter-tops and breakfast nook all with a fantastic view of Lake Hamilton. The great room with its large, cozy fireplace, mid-sized grand piano, and an adjoining large dinning room also with a fantastic view of the lake from almost every room which attests to the name of this home as Villa Belvedere. The entrance to the garage, the laundry room and a powder room also are within easy access on this floor. The upper floor is reached using the beautiful curved stairs. An elevator is also available if required. At the top of the stairs is the master bedroom with a grand view of the lake. Just off the master bedroom is a large walk-in closet and the master bath (with, large shower, whirlpool tub and his & her vanity). Just off the master bedroom is a spacious lanai affording a fantastic retreat to sip your cup of hot coffee and watch the sunrise across the lake and if you are really fortunate you will first hear and then see a gaggle, or two, of Canadian geese fly by. Two additional bedrooms each having their own baths and 2 more bedrooms both sharing a large bathroom are also on that level. There is a reading alcove and a library area, too. The bedrooms are carpeted except for one with oak flooring.

About The Owner

We, Van (retired health educator, high school chemistry, and earth science teacher) and Maggie (critical care nurse), have traveled a lot in Europe and have come to treasure the comfort and elegance of the time honored features of old world homes.

The Owner purchased this house in 2009
Why The Owner chose Hot Springs

We like Hot Springs and believe it is the place to retire. There is the lake, the quiet atmosphere, and the charm of downtown Hot Springs itself. We designed and built this Tuscan inspired home to last forever with a large open floor plan and plenty of space to entertain and enjoy large family gatherings, small private weddings, or corporate retreats all with fabulous views of the lake. We now have the opportunity to share this large home with others.

What makes this house unique

Everything Hot Springs has to offer is within a few minutes drive away. Not only does the Belle of Hot Springs pass close to us, but the geese fly low and along our shore as well as do other large birds. The sunrises are spectacular treating the early-riser, and the color of the sunsets are equally beautiful.

Family weekend horse racing!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 7, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
We just stayed at the Villa for the weekend and there was 10 of us, 35 to 85 years in age. It was great overall, from all the beds to the elevator. It is close to restaurants and the Oaklawn race track, and right on the water with great views of Lake Hamilton. We all thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the deck and conversing with one another. The kitchen was very high quaility and nice design. Loved the 2 refrigerators side by side. A friend stopped by, that lives on the lake, and was able to use the convienent boat dock. The lighting in the house offers a beautiful ambiance in every room. The value was very fair compared to staying in a 5 star hotel. We had the most wonderful time and would differently like to return in the future. The owner was very friendly and helpful in meeting ours needs! Thanks, Van for your hospitality!

The home is breathtaking. Just as described and pictures do not give justice to the lovely views. Perfect gettaway for families or a small group of friends. We enjoyed our stay and the owners were very nice. We were pleased with the information, directions, and courteous response to all inquiries prior to our visit. We would recommend this home for all occasions and look forward to staying again.

7 of my closest friends and I rented this house for a girls weekend. There was plenty of room and bathrooms! We had a blast! We loved this gorgeous home, there wasn't a thing to complain about. The kitchen was big enough for all 8 of us to hang out and cook in. We also really enjoyed the hot tub, we all fit in there too!! Thanks Van, for letting us turn up our music! We left the paint on the walls for ya;) I can only imagine how much fun staying in this house would be in the summer time!!
