Your PRIVATE Hot Springs Lake Hamilton Vacation Paradise

THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE ON LAKE HAMILTON. DOCKZILLA LAKE HAMILTON is not your average vacation rental. We are a private mini resort. We are between Hwy 70 and Hwy 270 bridges on the main channel of Lake Hamilton. By road, we are located between Royal and Sunshine in a quiet area on Timberlake Drive in Royal. We are 25 minutes from downtown Hot Springs but 25 seconds to the main channel of Lake Hamilton! With an appraised value of well over 1 MILLION DOLLARS you can rest assured you will be getting the best. Dockzilla Lake Hamilton is more than just a vacation home, it has a 6-foot privacy fence and security gate. It is a private home on Lake Hamilton that is very handicap friendly for your family or group, so there is no sharing. When you stay at Dockzilla you are the only guests at that time. Our property is actually a house on top of a house. 2 separate homes. Steve & Peggy reside on part of the upper level which makes us available to assure your stay is flawless. Consider us your staff if needed and when we are available. We can help with launching your boat, help build a fire in the outdoor fireplace and we keep the pool & spa clean and sanitized. With your reservation and booking you will get the entire lower house which includes a master bedroom with a king size bed, an oversized walk-in closet and smart TV. Enjoy your custom tile shower and walk-in handicap tub with jets. Bedroom #2 has a king size memory foam bed, wall mounted 32" LED TV w ROKU stick and an oversize walk-in closet. Bedroom #3 has a king size adjustable bed with massaging mattress and a 42" LED TV with built in DVD and a Roku stick and a small walk-in closet. Bedrooms #2 and #3 share a jack-n-jill style bathroom with full size tub/shower and double sink vanity. There is a Queen size fold out murphy bed next to dining room, so we actually sleep 10 in comfortable beds! Living room area is very large with a queen sleeper sofa, a gas log fireplace, 70" smart TV along with a DVD player. Most doors are pocket doors that make it comfortable for those in a wheelchair. Dining room seats 8 and the kitchen seats 4. Full kitchen is equipped with everything you will need to cook meals and entertain. We have installed a commercial icemaker to fill your ice chests for your convenience so no need to purchase ice. Washer and dryer are in your private laundry room. Step outside and Enjoy your Weber gas BBQ grill or charcoal grill/smoker on the covered patio. We have a large outdoor fireplace w oversize pergola seating area beside it. We provide a swamp coolers to keep you comfortable while being outside under the deck. There is a very large fenced in deck with a 16 x 28 sports pool for volleyball etc. Wonderful outdoor dining table that seats 8, three hammock chairs on the waters edge and loungers for gathering around the pool. And that's not all.... There is an elevator to take you upstairs to the party bedroom #4 where you will find another kitchen with refrigerator, ice machine, comfortable queen size fold out murphy bed, a half bathroom, an 8' Olhausen pool table and a Foosball table. There is a competition table tennis set up and electronic dart board in the garage which we allow folks to use. A 60" LED wall mounted TV with ROKU stick with a super sound system. Maybe you can talk Steve into dj'ing all the karaoke you can sing. Ample concrete/asphalt parking out front. We have plenty of space to park your boat trailers too. Just outside the upstairs party bedroom #4 is the upper deck area which we call the Oasis that overlooks the entire resort and beautiful Lake Hamilton. Enjoy our Thermospa Manhattan diamond edition spa w unbelievable views of Lake Hamilton. The lakefront includes 155' of boardwalk with the largest CUSTOM private dock permitted on Lake Hamilton. You will have your own large boat slip (14x34) and a drive on jet ski dock. We now offer our own GUEST ONLY tritoon. Check with Steve for details. If you don't want the hassle or responsibility of renting a boat elsewhere, we offer a boat charter (sightseeing cruise) on our 2023 Cobalt R30 which seats 12 and has a bathroom (check with Steve for details). Ask us about our Seadoo too. There also is a canoe with paddles which are included with your stay. With a required fishing license for those over 16 (available for purchase at just about any convenience store) you can catch all the fish you want right off the dock. We have a peddle boat which is included with your stay also. Your CUSTOM lakeside outdoor kitchen has a Weber gas BBQ grill, a Vulcan Commercial Range with oven, refrigerator and double sink with hot water. This is another perfect place to cook and entertain a large gathering of friends and family. On top of the outdoor kitchen is a large deck 16' above the water edge, perfect for small to medium size gatherings. We also offer a outdoor wedding package (plz contact us for event pricing)!

Best Family vacation ever
Such a great place to stay! Most comfortable beds on any vacation. Felt like we were staying with family not a rental. Steve and Peggy were great. Always there when we needed something. Having the tritoon boat for the whole stay was amazing. Room for everyone to be comfortable. Rainy day we enjoyed the game room. Pool was a daily stop for everybody. Well equipped kitchen helped our meal prep. Just a great time for everyone! Thank you.

The Best Family Getaway
Truly enjoyed our time at this property. Ages of family member ranged from young toddler to adults in our upper 30's. The pool and space was perfect to accomodate our needs as well as the awesome music system Steve has set up... we are music people, truly set the tone for the roght pool day. :) The lake views were top notch and the property itself is well maintained and provides plenty for families to do. Honestly, as a Mom, the little things (like laundry pods available to do a couple loads of laundry before leaving) made all the difference. No laundry after arriving home from vacation... winning! Am I right? Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

Dockzilla Birthday Weekend
We absolutely loved our weekend stay at Dockzilla! The hosts, Steve and Peggy were so helpful, kind, and very generous to allow us to have our baby’s first birthday party there! Dockzilla had a home away from home feeling and we loved everything about! It was very clean and the views are breathtaking. It was a blast and we will definitely be renting in the future!

Best Spring Break with Friends EVER!
Everything about Dockzilla was amazing. The outdoor situation was perfect for our group. The kids loved fishing off the dock, and the playground and the game room. We built a fire every night and ate all of our meals outside. There was tons of space and even though we had 12 people in our group we never felt crowded. The paddle boat and canoe was hit and so much fun. We highly recommend! Steve and Peggy were so sweet and accommodating and super duper fast to respond to questions. They are definitely super hosts. If you are looking for an awesome and beautiful stay in Arkansas close to Hot Springs, this is the place for you.

This property is a labor of love. They built this together and you can feel the genuine love and pride that seeps from every blade green grass and colorful hanging plants to the spacious bedrooms and Razorback/Cowboy game room. Steve and Peggy have given family members who live with limited mobility, the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful view with their wheelchair accessible deck, bedroom and bathroom. Seeing my disabled dad get to watch his grandkids play in the pool and hang out with his family was a blessing we owe to Dockzilla! Thank you!
