Other Things to Note:
Important: Important: Before you arrive, I'll send a link by email or text for a quick guest verification through my property management software. It helps me keep up with short-term rental regulations and gives guests and homes a little extra protection. If you finish it before you arrive, check-in is quick and easy. Maximum Occupancy is 6.

Guests must be 25 or older to book. This home is not set up for parties. My neighbors live here year-round, so I ask everyone to keep noise down after quiet hours and to respect their right to quiet enjoyment.

The lake, dock, kayaks, and paddleboards are yours to enjoy. Please use them and swim at your own risk, since I cannot be responsible for injuries.

Entergy lowers the lake each winter for shoreline maintenance and lake health. From mid-November to mid-March, there is no water on the west side of the peninsula and shallow water on the east side.

Interaction with Guests:
Once you're booked, I'm a call or text away if you have any questions. I also have a handyman on call if something comes up that I cannot resolve by phone or text.

The house was perfect! Surrounded by water with access to kayaks and paddle boards for beautiful morning sunrises on the lake. The home is very comfortable and the Garage-mahal is such a nice space for entertaining while having a view of the lake. Easy access to stores for essentials, but removes enough to feel away from it all. And the deer that live in the area are so serene. Would love to visit again!!

Work Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Chalet. Very roomy and loved having the kayaks available. We were in town working in Malvern and decided to get out of the hotel and found this place. Laura was a great host. Enjoyed several outdoor fires in the fire pits.

Peaceful & entertaining!

We really enjoyed our time in Hot Springs, especially the amenities and property at the Chalet on Cape Catherine. The house is located near enough to all the fun Hot Springs area activities but, tucked back on a peaceful peninsula. We can’t say enough wonderful things about the property. The garage entertainment room was such a smart idea and a big hit with our family. Just a note about the rooms and property surrounding the house was incredible.

The home is very nice. The game room is large and was perfect for watching games. The home is very well kept and frankly the beds were more comfortable than most anywhere I have stayed. It was perfect for a trip to Oaklawn. You might look at a map and think it is off the path from Oaklawn, or Hot Springs but the ride was very short. The owners were great to rent form.

Perfect place!

It was a wonderful quiet getaway! It was nice being away from everything. The water surrounding the house was stunning esp with the ducks! We absolutely loved the big game room area! I would say it needs some darts that work, They were all broken except one. We loved all the bedrooms and bathrooms! Although the middle bedroom tv and the living room tv we couldn’t get the Roku to work. Thankyou for having such a nice place to stay. The summer would prob be more fun so we can use the kayaks. We will be back for sure!

The host was quick to respond to any messages that I sent. And the location was very nice for a lake cabin with boat dock. I have a 22’ pontoon boat and it fit with room to spare in one of the two covered slips on the boat dock.
