​Private Access to Shoal Creek

​A Hidden Gem: One of the best features of this property is our private access to Shoal Creek. Offering our guests a serene and private connection to the water right on the 42-acre estate they can enjoy.

​Nature at Your Doorstep: Whether you want to wade in the cool waters, explore the banks for local wildlife, or simply relax by the sound of the creek, it offers a peaceful Ozark experience.

​RV, UTV & Camper Friendly – Private Basecamp

​Easy Maneuvering: Our property features a massive gravel roundabout and a wide driveway, making towing and turning a breeze. Whether you are hauling a large RV or a trailer full of UTVs/Side-by-Sides, there is no tight backing required.

​Off-Road Ready: We have plenty of secure, level ground to park your trailers and off-road toys. Being right against the Mark Twain National Forest, we are the perfect home base for your "river business" and trail adventures.

​Covered Parking: A large, oversized eave at the back of the building provides extra shelter for your gear, side-by-sides, or vehicles.

​Utility & Convenience: Our private gazebo area features a dedicated electrical panel and well-water access. It’s the perfect spot for 'dry camping' setups or keeping your UTV batteries charged and gear powered up while you enjoy the outdoors.

​Note: While we provide water and electricity at the gazebo, we do not have on-site sewage or dump stations. We are located just 20- 30 minutes from the major river resorts for easy access to floating and local amenities.
