Great Lake Front House with Outstanding Views and Private Beach Area
Guest rating: 4.9 / 5
Overview
This custom-built, 4,200-square-foot lakefront vacation home sits on 130 feet of shoreline on Greers Ferry Lake near Quitman, Arkansas. Positioned 400 feet back from the road, the property offers a high degree of privacy while still delivering panoramic 180-degree views of the lake's 'big water' section from its deck and crow's nest. The home features five bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a library with a sleeper sofa, making it suited to larger groups or multi-generational travel.
Interior & Living Spaces
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the main living area, which is anchored by a large fireplace, while the library offers books, games, and additional sleeping space for guests. The home is fully equipped for extended stays, with a kitchen, oven/stove, microwave, and washer, plus air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort. Cable TV and free Wi-Fi round out the in-home entertainment and connectivity options.
Outdoor Space & Recreation
A 1,000-square-foot deck, patio, and balcony give guests multiple vantage points to take in the lake views, and an outdoor gas grill supports lakeside cooking and dining. A walking path leads directly down to a private pebble beach, and a neighborhood boat launch is about 1.5 miles away, with two full-service marinas offering rental marine equipment, fuel, and service within 10 miles. Nearby, guests can arrange jet skiing, kayaking, and scuba diving, and can visit Greers Ferry Lake, the Narrows Recreation Area, and Devils Fork Recreation Area for outdoor activities.
Dining Nearby
While the home has a full kitchen for self-catering, a range of restaurants sit within roughly 6 to 12 kilometers, including Bentley's Restaurant and Buffet, The Boar House & Pizza (barbecue), Janssen's Lakefront Restaurant, Angie's Hideaway, Peggy Sue's Place, The Sawmill Grill, and Main Street Grill, giving guests a mix of casual, buffet, and lakefront dining options a short drive away.
Best for
This property is best suited to large families, multi-generational groups, and reunions seeking a private lakefront retreat with ample space, thanks to its five bedrooms, library, and 130 feet of private shoreline. It also appeals to boating and fishing enthusiasts given its proximity to marinas, a boat launch, and water sports like kayaking and jet skiing directly off the private beach.
Travel tips
The house sits 400 feet from the road down a driveway with a reported steep incline, so drivers should take extra care in wet weather. The nearest airport, Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, is about 87 kilometers away, so renting a car is recommended for the drive to Quitman and for reaching area restaurants and marinas. Plan to bring or rent kayaks or fishing gear to make the most of the private pebble beach and nearby boat launch, located about 1.5 miles from the house.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the home's beauty, cleanliness, and spaciousness, with large rooms and a well-equipped kitchen frequently mentioned. Families highlight the private rocky beach and kayaking access as a highlight, especially for children and grandchildren, along with the library's books and games. Water access and lake views are repeatedly called out as major strengths, and owner communication is described as fast and responsive. The one recurring caution is the steep driveway incline, which guests note can be tricky to navigate when the pavement is wet.
