Clean house. Very large and accommodating for our large group. The hosts were very kind and responsive when we had a WiFi issue. The dock was fun for the kids and the porch was great to relax on after a day on the water. Plenty of towels, blankets, and the kitchen was well stocked. Only downside to the property is the small kitchen. Not very functional for large groups. Water at the property smells and tastes awful. So showers and teeth brushing was a bit unpleasant. Overall would recommend the property.

Thank you for your feedback, and we are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We have contracted a plumber who has treated the well water and addressed the mineral level in the water to significantly improved the taste and smell. Thank you again!

A Perfect Getaway

Came here for our annual family/friends vacation and could not have been more impressed. Beautiful and clean property with plenty of comfy places to sleep, a great kitchen space to cook for our whole group, and lovely and relaxing views from the deck. The kids (and adults lol) loved the waterslide, too! We plan to book again for next year!

Extended International Family Vacation

The house was spacious, beautifully decorated, clean and had everything our group of 16 (ages 1-70) needed. The kids (big and small) enjoyed the lily pad! Plenty of seating inside and out. Thank you again Dean and family for making our family trip memorable. Our family from Mexico loved Lake of the Ozarks!

Great for multi-family trips! (Or any family really)

Chose this place to celebrate my mother-in-laws 80th birthday with her three kids, their families, and her disabled adult son. The house was perfect because each group had their own room and the limited number of stairs (really only a few down to the dock) made it accessible for everyone to enjoy themselves. We rented a boat for the day from Pirates Point (owner recommendation) and the boat slip was perfect. Would highly recommend this place to others.

All clocks stopped at 5pm

The home was well stocked and supplied. No need to buy basic staples like salt/pepper/seasonings/plastic silverwear/foil/wrap/storage bags/etc. They provided more than an ample supply of beach towels. The swim dock w slide was a delight to all! Even adults! And deck and proximity to swim dock and fishing was perfect. Deck is massive and cool even in muggy temperatures. Fantastic place.

Relaxing vacation

This property was spacious enough for all the people that came and offered a relaxing and restful vacation! There was plenty of space on the deck and the dock for everyone to enjoy vacation. This property offered everything that was needed, and then some. And everyone enjoyed the slide - Some love sliding on it, and others loved watching them slide on it! It was easy to communicate with the homeowners and they were very receptive and responsive. Thank you for an amazing stay and vacation in your home!

Great House for Multi-Family!

This house was great for our trip! The house is set up well for multiple couples and the bunkhouse is an added bonus. This would be a great setup if you have several kids in your group as well. The massive deck was great with plenty of seating and great views on a really nice cove. The kids (and adults) enjoyed the water slide and swimming platform off the dock. It also has an open slip if you have a boat or wave runners to tie up. There is also plenty of parking room for multiple vehicles. The host reached out with info before the trip and gave contact info in case we had any issues (we didn't). I would highly recommend this property.

Great place to stay

A group of 11 of us stayed and will probably stay again. The only cons were the rooms above the garage are amazing but they don’t have a bathroom. You do have to go down to the main house for that. The beds in the main house could use an upgrade as they are not the most comfortable and every time someone moved it was pretty loud. The beds in the rooms above the garage are amazing. We did have a couple of friends slip on the steps going to the dock. One of our friends fell down completely. So watch your footing going down. Overall the host was easy to communicate with and the house fit us all comfortably. I would recommend staying here.
