Powell Lakehouse | Hot Tub, Dock & Sunset Views | Featured on Staycation episode
Welcome to Powell Lakehouse, a beautifully remodeled lakefront cottage tucked away in Buck Creek Cove at the 8-mile marker in Sunrise Beach, Missouri. This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home sleeps up to 5 guests and has been thoughtfully updated inside and out. Designed with couples and small families in mind, this cozy yet luxurious retreat is perfect for a romantic getaway, anniversary, honeymoon, girls’ weekend, or peaceful family escape—available all four seasons.
✨ As featured on the Destination Channel’s Staycation: Lake of the Ozarks (February 2026), Powell Lakehouse is a truly special and sought-after destination. ✨
Sleeping arrangements:
Master bedroom with queen bed and luxury linens
Second bedroom with bunk bed (twin over twin) plus an additional twin (sleeps 3)
The home is fully furnished:
Hotel-quality linens, towels & robes
Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, ice maker, coffeemaker, crock pot & more
Washer & dryer
Indoor wood-burning fireplace
Smart TVs, cable & free Wi-Fi
Outdoor Living & Lakefront Fun
Step outside and take in unobstructed lake views from multiple outdoor spaces designed for relaxation and connection.
Lakefront amenities include:
Shared concrete dock with large swim platform & wet-step ladder
Deep water cove (25+ ft under dock)
2 kayaks, paddleboard, rafts & large floating lily pad
Lakeside fire pit for sunset evenings
Private covered patio and extended deck closer to the water
For ultimate relaxation, enjoy the new 5-person hot tub (COMING MAY 2026) on the deck, perfect for stargazing and sunset views.
Buck Creek Cove is ideal for swimming, floating, and paddling. Summer peak season boating can be active; we’re happy to recommend nearby no-wake properties if docking a boat is a priority.
Luxury Touches That Set Us Apart
What truly makes Powell Lakehouse different is the attention to detail:
1G high-speed Wi-Fi with tri-band router (perfect for streaming or remote work)
500-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets in the master
Fully stocked essentials many rentals don’t provide:
Coffee & tea, spices
Paper products & laundry detergent
Toiletries, beach towels, bug spray, flashlights
Outdoor shower to rinse off after lake time
New landscaping and updated outdoor furniture (2025)
Location
Conveniently located near Highway 5 and the toll bridge, with easy access to:
Laurie restaurants & grocery stores
Outlet Mall & Bagnell Dam Strip
Ha Ha Tonka State Park
Shopping, antiques & local attractions
The home sits in a quiet, private, family-friendly neighborhood with paved roads and off-street parking on a concrete driveway.

About the host
Hosted by Kim Powell
We met in 1984 on a cruise to the Mexican Riviera as teenagers, and 30 years later we are reunited. We both love the water and the ocean. John is a retired deputy and Kim is an art teacher. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do. It is our fairy tale ending and you are a part of our story.
Why they chose this property
Because of the location on the property, you are right next to the water. There are great views and loads of windows in this quaint lake cottage. Kim was a waitress at Tan Tar A, Chief's, and Shooter's 21 when she was in college. John has always lived in Orange County CA near the ocean all his life. Living near the water is a must for this couple. Enjoy your stay!
What makes this property unique
Everything is new at this Lakehouse! The previous owner gutted the place and started fresh inside. In 2014, we added a garage and guesthouse (where we stay) on the property. New landscaping throughout the whole property in 2018. Brand new concrete dock! Privacy fence and many outdoor sitting areas. You are going to love our outdoor spaces. We do.
