Waterfront! Firepit~3 King bedrms~playroom~kayaks~near restaurants

ON LAKE HAMILTON! Amazing location close to everything! Boats welcome! Firepit! Kayaks! 10 minutes to downtown! Comfortably sleeps 8. 3 KING beds, one in each bedroom, while kids/friends may enjoy the 2 futon sleepers & additional fold out twin in the ottoman in the sunroom/funroom! Sunroom can sleep 3-4 smaller people! Firepit, Charcoal Grill, Pacman Arcade game, cornhole & board games! Fun! We have two separate living areas so everyone has room to spread out in our designer mid century modern (mcm) vibe home.

You won't find a more convenient location in the area. We're less than 2 miles from I-70 and only 3 miles to Oaklawn Racing and Gaming! Starbucks, Walmart, Kroger and lots and lots of shops and restaurants are all within 5 minutes of the house.

Have a boat? You can can launch it just around the corner at Hot Springs Marina - only 1/2 mile away! Dock tie-up in season: March - October. Plenty of parking for a trailer in our circle driveway.
Don't have a boat? Pontoon rentals are also available at the marina. Or enjoy our two kayaks - free for our guests to use during your stay along with water toys! *Winter pool is November to March with lower water levels & no boat docking at rear of home during winter pool. *In summer pool season, Average sized boats (pontoon/bass/fish & ski) may tie up to the walkout/tie up dock-(not the slip) boat questions? Just ask us!

Kids will LOVE our sunroom/family room with two enormous "Big Joe" bean bags and vintage board games & Pacman Arcade too! The grown ups will love the covered back deck with patio seating, a swing for 2, large grill and awesome views of the water. Relax in the Adirondack chairs around the firepit & make your own s'mores! Perfect spots for that morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine under the stars.

note: one of the futons is in the master bedroom, the other 2 futons (each sleep one) plus the twin foldout bed are all in the sunroom

We LOVE our mid century modern designer lakefront vacation home and we know you will too. Book today and make your own memories at Retro Ranch on Lake Hamilton!

Spring Break get-a-way

We stayed at the retro ranch for a few days over spring break. It is so cute and very clean! The outdoor area is especially nice and my kids loved the bonus room with Pac-Man and big bean bag chairs. It is easy to get anywhere in Hot Springs, and we had a great little trip! Thanks!
