The check-in process went smoothly and Andre kept us informed timely of the process. The property was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It is perfectly located, close to attractions and restaurants as well as being able to disconnect and enjoy nature.

Fantastic Value
Fantastic property in a great location that was exactly as advertised. The home had plenty of space for our group with a gorgeous multi-tiered deck and friendly neighbors. The house rules and checkout procedures were incredibly reasonable. Perfect stay, no notes.
We had a fabulous time staying at the property. Andrew responded very quickly and was excellent about helping out. All of the neighbors were very kind and also spoke highly of him! The house offered plenty of space for our group, the outdoor seating was fabulous, and the view was great. We’ll be back!

Lyndsey, thanks for the awesome review. It would be our pleasure to host you again at any of our three properties.
Overall very clean. Furniture in living room especially is a bit dated. Kitchen is nice but appliances are low end or mid grade. Bedrooms are small but comfortable. Bathrooms are small and shower and bathroom fixtures are older.Location is great and all decks provide great views. Owner was very responsive to an issue with the hot tub.Would suggest having bath soap available.
This was a fantastic property that checked all the boxes. Definitely will plan on staying again

Relaxing and Serene
My stay was relaxing and serene—exactly what I was hoping for! Everything listed in the description and amenities was available and just as described. The host was friendly and easy to communicate with, making the experience smooth from start to finish. I especially loved the beautiful lake views from the various sitting areas around the property. A peaceful getaway I’d definitely recommend!

Great Place to Stay!
Andrew is a great host! We truly enjoyed this home! It had everything we needed! We would definitely stay here again!
We stayed 3 nights in late September and enjoyed our three nights. It was quiet and the accommodations were great. We loved the location and would recommend for a getaway or family vacation
Nice place to stay in the fairly secluded Cove we were able to bring our boat and park it on the side of the dock which worked out perfect with plenty of bumpers just around the corner. There’s a nice restaurant the boathouse which is a very upscale place has a swim up pool bar. There’s three gas stations within half hour mile of the place the lake is very great miles of boat rides and things to see caught some fish while we’re there we definitely will be back

This place was Amazing!
Just like home! The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were so comfy, and the view from the large decks was so amazing! This home was spotless and decorated perfectly. Don't hesitate, just go ahead and book now! The owner was very nice and quick to respond to my questions. There is also a nice big driveway and only a couple of steps, which made it so easy for me to carry my luggage inside. Thank you for the great memories.
Wife & I enjoyed the time we spent here. Great place, quite, very clean and very relaxing ! Highly recommended if you wanna get away. Foliage was beautiful!!
Came up to visit friends and this place was perfect. Had everything we needed to cook and relax. It rained and was cold the entire time but the covered deck still allowed us to grill. Definitely would stay here again.

Colleen, I am so glad you came and enjoyed your time at the lake. Thank you for staying with us!
We enjoyed a relaxing weekend on the lake at the house. The fire pit was great for making s’mores in the evening. The house was cozy and beds were comfortable.

I self manage my rentals and take great pride in the properties we renovate and offer to our guests. We live in St. Louis but spend every extra minute we can at the lake. While we're not there, we love sharing the house with others to experience "lake life" and all the Ozarks has to offer.
