About this property

Secluded Cabin + Guest House with *Private Dock' at West End of Lake Taneycomo

A picturesque site at the 'Deep Water Chute' on Lake Taneycomo about a mile down from Table Rock Dam. Secluded across from 200 foot bluffs with massive oaks shading covered porches and decks. The primary residence cabin has 3br & 2baths, is fully appointed and provisioned, including Cable/WiFi. Adjacent to the main residence, connected by decks is a two room bungalow 'guest house' with separate mini=kitchen and full bath. The bungalow has just been redone from the floods in January 2016. Ample deck furniture including grill and 'porch swings are available. There is ample parking for as many cars as needed as well as a high double carport space for campers or motorhomes. From the deck, there are about ten steps to the large dock with a wide slip which will accommodate guest's 'trailered boat' or a boat rented from Trout Lodge Marina just 200 yards downstream. There is a public access boat-launch just 200 yards upstream from the residence. This quiet and beautiful setting is as good as it gets for a 'Trout Fishing Experience on famous Taneycomo. Of course just up the hill is The College of the Ozarks with their award winning upscale Keeter Center Restaurant. Just down the street across from Trout Lodge, is Gilberti's Italian and at the top of the hill you will find McDonalds, Country Mart Sonic, etc. The residence is about a mile down the hill from College of the Ozarks which is immediately at the Hollister exit. The 'Strip/76' exit is just 4 minutes away and The Landing' only 5 minutes away either by I-65 or the back way through downtown Hollister.

The ac didn't work and neither did the TV. The wifi was very sketchy. The water had a bad rotten egg smell for the first day and a half. The outside area could use a good power washing. It maybe that we were one of the first to stay there since it was only March.Other than that it is a great place to stay. Good atmosphere, deck area and firepit with plenty of wood. Had a great time with family.

The only things we enjoyed were our time together as a family, the view from the back deck, and the proximity to Branson.The communication from the hosts is absolutely awful. We initially were going to have 6 people(5 adults and 1 child), but ended up with 7 people(5 adults and 2 children). I let the host know in April that we were going to have a total of 7 people instead of 6. They completely ignored my message and only responded with wanting the 2nd payment several days later. I messaged them 2 days prior to our stay, asking if there were any special check in instructions, and did not receive a response until the day before our stay. We found a couple of roaches(this was reported but completely disregarded), evidence of mice, the air conditioner in the guesthouse didn't work at all(which is where my oldest daughter and son-in-law stayed)(and which I let the host know of, and they messaged me the next day saying well you only have 5 people so you could just overlook it and enjoy the lake), the air conditioner in the main house didn't work initially, the drain in the main house shower drains extremely slow and each person has to wait a while after the previous person to take a shower, one of the boards on one of the twin beds was broken, and the faucet on the sink in the kitchen was loose.

First and foremost I want to apologize to anyone who has book this place in the last week. Had I seen the most recent reviews for March 2026 I WOULD have kept looking for another place. Which is incredibly sad because the property has so much potential. Arriving we discovered poorly maintained property. The kitchen pots and pans as well as silverware had mouse droppings in them, the dinner plates were still wet and covered with food (in the cabinet) . We cleaned so we could cook. The AC DIDNT come close to cooling the home , next morning the shower backed up and the smell was sewerage. The cottage shower was equally bad. Immediately tried to contact the host-(via- phone #, text message , email) never got a response . The rental was not habitable. I made the decision after repeated attempts to locate other accommodations. I then spent the next 6 days trying to get a refund for the remaining funds. Still not having the host STILL not respond to me. Was able to finally get Vrbo to refund. I would not stay here without major improvements starting with a deep cleaning and plumbing/AC repair. The setting is incredibly beautiful but the conditions are poor.

The views are great and the outdoor spaces are amazing. The cabin has roaches, the shower doesn’t drain properly, the kitchen sink faucet is so loose that it feels like it’s going to fall off. You can tell this place used to be nice but it has gone downhill from its prime and doesn’t get the attention or care it should.

The view is everything!

The beauty of this property is outdoors! There is a lot of outdoor seating options with the dock below and the view of the flowing River is spectacular! There is ample sleeping options with the added bungalow. However, the beds are not comfortable and the cabin needs some TLC. It was clean but just needs some repairs and updates.
