My husband and I wanted to spend some time in the Village to explore the area thinking we might want to buy a winter home there (we’re from Michigan). We booked this home because we liked the view and the number of bedrooms/baths in case family came to visit.
We arrived Feb 5 and fell in love with the home immediately. It was so clean, had all the amenities of home, open floor plan, beautiful kitchen, comfy couches and mattresses, nice TVs, and a gorgeous view.
The location was wonderful…close to the West gate, walking trails, golf, and only 30 min from the historic downtown Hot Springs. For five weeks we played golf, mountain biked, hiked, played tennis, played pickle ball, worked out at the fitness center, and met a lot of wonderful people we now call friends.
My husband and I work remote so if we weren’t “playing”, we were working. The home has a wonderful desk area in the master bedroom (with a printer!!). I worked at the kitchen table with a view of the lake. The wifi worked great!! There are areas of the village in which this is not the case.
The communication with the home owner could not have been better. Since we were going to stay for 5 weeks, I knew I would do a lot of cooking. I contacted him a couple weeks prior to our stay asking if they had a crock pot and glass storage containers. I told him I would bring mine if the home didn’t have it. He said he would buy some so I didn’t have to pack it. So thoughtful!!!
We had family come and visit for a few days. They loved the home as well. It was so nice for them to have their own bedroom and bathroom, yet have a wonderful open floor plan for us to all be together comfortably to hang out.
We’re on our drive back to Michigan now and I’m sad to leave. This was our home for over a month and it was perfect. I highly recommend this home, whether it’s for a weekend or an extended stay. You will not be disappointed.
You will also fall in love with everything the Village has to offer. We loved it so much, we bought a lot and hope to begin building this summer. Thank you Rodney for letting us stay in your beautiful home. It was lovely in every way.
