What Kind Of View Do You Most Want?

Many villagers report various snow depths during the first winter storm of 2025 (they say we may have another one around January 20th). A few friends told me they got considerably more snow than I did. We got about 6-7 inches at my house, but these friends live on top of hills and mountains, while I don’t.

Those who have never visited Hot Springs Village may not realize the diversity of topography here. There are mountaintop houses, hilltop houses, lower-land houses, golf course houses, lakefront houses, golf course community houses, and wooded area houses. Some houses have a crawl space. Some have small basements. Others have fully finished basements. While some of us have houses built on a slab without a crawlspace or a basement.

For many people, it’s all about the view—what we see when we look out our windows or sit on our front or back porches.
