Notes from the host
Maury Lake House on Eden Isle
THIS HOUSE IS THOROUGHLY CLEANED AFTER EACH USE, FOLLOWING CDC GUIDELINES IN RELATION TO COVID-19. IT IS A SAFE PLACE.
This fully furnished, large “retro” vintage home (think MAD MEN style but with modern day appliances) is located in the exclusive Eden Isle Resort community on beautiful Greer’s Ferry Lake just outside the charming town of Heber Springs AR which is located in the Ozark Mountains. A perfect spacious place to relax for any age group, and attractively appointed! Handicap access is a PLUS, which includes a ramp to get into the house, an armed chair around the commode and a shower chair in the master bathroom, an adjustable walker (with tray) and a leather recliner that has been raised to conform to a handicapped individual’s needs. (Caveat: the handicapped individual would need to be able to use the walker to access the master bathroom, as the door is not wide enough for a wheel chair) (we plan to modify that in the near future). However, this abode is a home, not just a house or cabin! The handicapped access to the home is not just for those that might want to rent it in their elder years, but a person(s) who might want to spend time in a beautiful serene environment and have a ramp to pull luggage and coolers from the car into the house. A large, covered porch deck on the back of the house has a secluded view from any neighbors, allows for watching early morning sunrises while you drink your coffee in your PJ's, but is shaded during the day and evening, permitting a relaxed atmosphere where stars shine like diamonds in the sky, as there are no interfering city lights.

Eden Isle Marina is only a block away, where boat & boating recreation rentals are available. The acclaimed Red Apple Inn and Country Club is just a few blocks away, offering golf, tennis, 2 pools, and dining options. Just 5 minutes away is the town of Heber Springs where movies, bowling, restaurants and shopping are all available (antiques too!). 15 minutes away is trout fishing on the Little Red River. This is the perfect place to relax with family and friends for a long weekend or several full weeks break from a hectic life set in a mild climate.
The home features 2 spacious living areas, which include a large den with fireplace, ample seating, a sofa bed and a large common sitting area also with ample seating and sofa bed. There are TV’s in the Master bedroom, common sitting room (with a DVD player), den, and guest bedroom. There also is a stereo system with a DVD player for the living/den/kitchen/dining area, and the house has wireless Internet.
The home has 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and the aformentioned two pull out sofa beds. The master bedroom has a king sized bed, exercise bike, electric pants presser and private bath. The guest bedroom has a queen sized bed and a medium sized attached bunk bedroom (bunked twin beds) (which can be closed off from the guest bedroom via folding doors), and has a full bath attached to the guest quarters. There is also a full bath across the hall from the den. The home has comfortable beds to accommodate 6, however with the 1 queen sized sofa bed and 1 full sized sofa bed that can accommodate 2 each, that stretches the sleeping potential to 10.
The fully stocked kitchen is well appointed with a range/oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee pot, Kitchen Aid mixer, hand mixer, food processor, pressure cooker, mixing bowls, bread machine, kitchen scales, toaster oven, blender, waffle iron, salad spinner, dustbuster and just about any item you might need including tv trays, and is open to the main living areas. There is a solid oak hand made dining table that seats 6-8 and ample room on the large, covered porch deck for “overflow” diners, which is accessible to both the kitchen and the master bed room, and is complete with a new gas grill, recently refinished wrought iron furniture, a Pauley’s Island hammock and a bench for additional seating which spans the width of the deck. There are 2 regular sized refrigerators/freezers and a separate laundry room.
A boat can be stored behind the house or slips are available for rent from the nearby Eden Isle Marina.
