The perfect home-away-from-home! Everything you need is in this beautiful house, and even all you want to enjoy the lake. Something for every age. Julia is pleasant and communicates to make sure guests are happy. And best of all, her checkout requests are minimal
We had a fabulous time at Julia’s Lake House
We had the whole family with us to mark our 50th wedding anniversary. The house is lovely, very clean and perfect for a large group.
Julia has thought of everything a family would need to enjoy a week on the lake
Our grandkids loved the lily pad, kayaks, paddle boards, fishing gear and big raft.
Julia was so easy to communicate with and very accommodating.
The house has a beautiful view of the lake.
We highly recommend this great place and hope to return in the future.
Julia's house is extraordinary!!! We wondered if she had "this" or "that"...but found all and more in the cabinets. The kitchen was especially well equipped which was helpful because we made most of our meals. The large open spaces that faced the lake were wonderful. Everyone had their own bed (11 people) and everyone had an excellent time with: fishing, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, hiking, playing card & board games, playing pool (1st time for many) and watching old family movies on the downstairs large TV. Julia was so responsive to our questions: where is a good local restaurant for a nice family dinner (the restaurant at the marina), where can we rent a pontoon boat (one option was for multiple days and 1 was for single days at the marina). The dock and lake were excellent and the storage closet at Julia's had every imaginable piece of water equipment imaginable (life vests, floaties, donuts for pulling behind a boat, etc.) and also fishing poles and yard games. First impressions will convince you that this was a good choice, but when you open the front door and immediately see the large living area and huge windows overlooking the lake you know that this will be a great setting for what ever gathering you plan.
Took my family on a vacation, something we haven’t done as a family in 20 plus years. Wh had six adults, a two year old and 9 month old twins. The house was a perfect size for all of us in that we each had our own bedroom and bathroom. The best part was the roominess and not having to climb all over everyone or being crowded. There were plenty of pots and pansy dishes, and flatware as we cooked all our meals there. My daughter in law even made a Strawberry birthday cake for my son. The accommodations were way better than imagined. There were games available if we wanted to play. Even though we didn’t play in the water, Kayak’s and Paddle Boards were available. We sat on the porch and had our morning coffee and watched the Sun come up or sat and had a soft drink and watched the boaters out on the lake. Julia’s lake house was the perfect place for our family get together. My oldest son who doesn’t impress easily told me “ You did a good job getting this place Dad. We used our activity cards and played golf one day at the Highlands Course and hit the Driving Randy a couple more days. We wanted to play one more day but something came up and had to change our plans. Would I come here again? Absolutely I would do it again.
Julia was available and answered all my questions and if We needed anything she was there to answer question or help in any way. She was an absolute Jewel and so easy to get along with. My only regret was not being able to meet her in person.
Our fifth year at this property and it is the family’s most cherished week of the year. We have never seen a host who works harder to provide for every need you might have. Stunning, from A to Z.
Perfect holiday gathering place for the entire family. Thoughtful amenities for all ages in our group. A great time was had by all. Would like to go back again in the summer.
The house and accommodations were amazing. The house was well stock for anything you might need.. Great lake view and convenient to many attractions. Julia was great to work with during booking and when we arrived.
This beautiful house has so many living areas to enjoy, so many places to relax and enjoy the beautiful views and the lake. It is furnished with just about everything you need and more. It’s clean, spacious, and is by far the best place we’ve stayed in while visiting Bella Vista.
Absolutely the perfect home for large or small gatherings…Julia has thought of every need no matter what the want may be..Julia’s preparation was beyond our expectations and therefore all we had to do was enjoy her home!! Perfect lake and great area of NW Arkansas…we hope to return soon..👍
We had a wonderful time and this home had EVERYTHING for fun and practical needs. Julia is amazing and has thought of everything! We had ages 3-80 and every detail of our stay was perfection!!
Nine of us (five adults & 4 children) spent a week in July at this spectacular property. The house is large, immaculate, well-furnished and stocked--and situated perfectly for relaxing days and evenings on the lovely lake. Host Julia is professional, friendly, and attentive. Highly recommend.
We have had 3 years in a row of amazing vacations at this home. Julia truly is the most outstanding host and this property is incredibly maintained and stocked with everything one could need. We love it all!!!!
We stayed for a week with a couple families, younger kids, and had a great time. Toys for all the littles. Lake toys (kayaks, paddleboards, tubes) for the bigs. And plenty of space for all of us. Plus Julia is the best.
I’ve never been to a VRBO or Air B&B that put such effort into so many details. We lacked nothing! we were all super impressed and it was just beautiful!
Ten of us (grandparents, kids, grandkids) just spent five wonderful days at Julia's Lake House in Bella Vista, AR--and wish it could've been longer! The house and property were beautiful, the lake was ideal for both children and adults, and Julia took care of every detail. We also took advantage of two terrific museums in nearby Bentonville. This was our second stay at Julia's. Highly recommend.
Julia is the most on the ball and helpful person on the planet. Her home is gorgeous and stocked with everything you could wish for/you forgot 🙃. It was a perfectly delightful experience from A to Z.
The home was well appointed and equipped with everything you would need. There were so many amenities and the home had everything you needed. All we had to bring was our clothes and groceries. Highly recommended
This property is amazing! We met up with some friends and had an amazing week. Julia has everything you could want in the house and also is super responsive when you have any questions at all. We especially enjoyed having the paddle boards and kayaks. They were used a lot! We are already trying to plan our trip back next year. Thanks Julia!
Who knew you could have an awesome family vacation on a small lake in Arkansas. We were amazed at all the extras Julia puts into making sure her guests have everything they need to have a great time. We enjoyed boating, fishing, swimming, paddle boards, kayaks, adult size blow up rafts for lots of fun on the water. It didn't stop without side toys, there were puzzles, books, games, movies and more. Plus a kitchen with everything you needed ncluding any small appliance you could think of which made cooking together fun for all. Julia goes the extra mile and it shows! Thanks Julia!
Julia’s was amazing! So much space inside and out. The walk to the dock is easy and short. We spent several days out there and it was a dream. The water is shallow near the dock so it’s perfect for floating, playing and especially for littles. The house was clean and had all the amenities described. Julia clearly goes out of her way to get everything ready and perfect for guests. She’s super responsive beforehand to answer any questions and is willing to help during the stay. We had adults and kids ages 2 months to 14 and everyone had a blast. We would definitely recommend the place and would come back! It would even be great in the off-season!
