Let the vacationing begin!

'la Casa is a cosy luxury suite. vacation rental for one to three guests, with homey décor and furnishings. This spacious 900 sq. ft. open concept unit. Our second unit is now ready!!! if both are rented you have an 1100 sq. ft. 2 bedroom, with an added bathroom and kitchenette.
We moved from coastal SC and wanted to bring with us a semi-coastal living atmosphere. We live upstairs in this comfortable two story brick/framed private home situated on the #6 hole of the magnificent “Cortez” golf course. ‘la Casa Cortez is located downstairs with its own dedicated keyless entry patio door. Guests have their own lighted parking pad and walkway to the entrance. Your luxury bedroom includes a king size pillow top mattress with freshly laundered bedding, including blankets and bed spreads. This spacious get-away includes a closet to store clothes, golf clubs or anything else you want to keep out of the way. You will enjoy the open concept of a cozy living room and kitchen. A special feature is a dual purpose coffee table converting to a desk for computer use or extra eating space. An electric fireplace provides both supplemental heat and a pleasurable ambiance for those romantic evenings. There are two Lazy Boy recliners and a double loveseat recliner for your comfort and relaxation. We offer free high speed wireless internet, 55 inch Samsung HD flat screen Smart TV with free Netflix and on demand features! Your kitchen is equipped with a full size refrigerator, double stainless steel sinks, micro-wave, toaster oven, convection oven, a double counter top burner and an induction plate for your meal preparation. We also provide an ample supply of items for all your kitchen and bathroom needs including paper towels, coffee & filters, salt & pepper, all season salt, flour, sugar and artificial sweetener just to name a few.
Our second unit a dorm size refrigerator., microwave, coffee maker, air fryer, TV, sofa/love seat, queen bed and eating area/desk! The unit can also be used independent of the other unit and has its own separate patio and patio door entrance.
Even though, you will have many options, you will be happy to know there are countless restaurants nearby!! We suggest trying “Debra's” which is only a short 7 min. drive, and is known throughout the village for serving an excellent breakfast and lunch. A large private patio awaits your arrival with access either through your living area or bedroom. Patio furnishings include table with four chairs, Weber charcoal grill, large gas grill and 2 additional lounge chairs and small table for relaxing enjoyment. Our unit is pet friendly and we welcome them as long as they mind their manners. A small pet fee will be required.
'la Casa Cortez is our little coastal getaway and we hope it will become your home away from home.

Perfect Spring Getaway

My husband and I travel to Hot Springs several times a year to visit my mother and we usually stay in Hot Springs National Park. This time we decided to explore beyond the city and we were so glad we did. It was worth the short drive to mom's place. We found our accommodations to be very comfortable. We enjoyed the twin Lazy Boy recliners to relax in after a long day of exploring all the hiking trails around the village. Everything was available for what we needed, even a grill with all the necessary utensils. I was impressed with the charming and comfortable beach themed style. And, everything was clean and fresh. We had a lovely picnic outside on the back patio that was overlooking a beautiful golf course. We even had a French Toast casserole and coffee with our hosts, Linda and Gary. We will definitely be back. I highly recommend this lovely casita! Mariellen & Uly Flores Lakeway, Texas

The unit was just what we needed. The hosts had provided everything that we could need, even snacks. They were available for any questions. They even gave us a ride to the golf course. The laundry was very convenient. The shower is small, but functional. The kitchen was adequate, although we only used the Keurig, microwave, and fridge. We'll be back. The info from VRBO was not updated, like the code for the door, but the host met us when we got there and gave us the code.

A Perfect Get-a-Way

Spotlessly clean and exceptionally comfortable, this property checked all the boxes! Wonderful bed, two TVs and the best outfitted kitchen we have ever seen in the numerous VRBO properties we have rented over the years. No shortage of linens, utensils, small appliances, paper goods, condiments, and the like! These owners have thought of everything to ensure that their guests lack nothing—even down to a basket of snacks & a supply of ice in the freezer! Some might “miss” a full-sized range, but the double burners, microwave, and counter oven more than met our needs—we didn’t come to Hot Springs to cook! We highly recommend this property to anyone coming to this area.

Exceeded Our Expectations

We loved the Casita, and it was clean, modern, and offered a lot more than we expected. Beautiful view, the kitchen was well stocked, including spices, tin foil, snacks and flavored creamer. What VRBO offers that, this was our first out of maybe 10 bookings at other locations. We will be back.

Lovely getaway

The property was in excellent condition, even better than pictures made it out to be. Despite being on the Cortez course and having neighbors nearby, you were still quite secluded, and surrounded by a perimeter of lovely trees. The patio and fire pit are lovely and would have gotten so much more use if it wasn’t freezing when we visited. Gary and Linda were excellent hosts! Very open for communication if we needed it and knowledgeable of trails and restaurants within the village. Would love to come here again if we’re ever in the area!
