Welcome to "The Beehive"—your sweet spot on Lake Hamilton! This charming, pet-friendly lakefront retreat is designed for families, friends, and fur babies looking to buzz away from the daily grind.
Located in a quiet cove just minutes from Hot Springs’ main attractions, The Beehive offers the best of both worlds: peaceful water views and easy access to the action. Spend your days paddling off your private swim dock with our complimentary kayaks, grilling on the patio, or roasting s'mores around the firepit under the stars.
Inside, you'll find a bright, modern "bee-themed" haven with King beds, smart entertainment, and all the comforts of home. Whether you are here for the horse racing at Oaklawn, hiking the National Park, or just floating the day away, The Beehive is the perfect place to land.

Location & Neighborhood
The Beehive is located on the highly desirable Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
On the Water: We are in a "no-wake" zone cove, meaning the water is calm and safe for swimming and kayaking without heavy boat traffic.
Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort: ~10-minute drive.
Hot Springs National Park / Bathhouse Row: ~15-minute drive.
Magic Springs Theme Park: ~20-minute drive.
Grocery & Dining: Harps Food Store and local restaurants are just a few minutes away by car.
Other Things to Note
Lake Levels: Like all properties on Lake Hamilton, water levels are lowered by the power company annually from November 1st to March 1st. During this time, the dock may rest on the lakebed, but the yard and firepit are still fully enjoyable!
Safety: Life jackets are provided, but guests use the lake and watercraft at their own risk.
Pets: We love hosting pets! A pet fee applies to cover additional cleaning. Please ensure your furry friends are house-trained.
