Book now for a 2026 Family Fall Getaway. Or save your spot for Summer 2027 at our popular home. Hey grandparents: FAMILY REUNION GROUPS ARE THE PERFECT USE FOR SOL MATE. Imagine all of your family in one fun location.
Looking for the perfect spot to reconnect with family and friends? Sol Mate is the place! With a prime location this house books up quickly—especially for spring and summer —so don’t wait! Top reviews. Oh my YARD you can't match this expansive, usable yard space. Such a great way for families to connect. Enjoy a calm, no wake cove. Relax on our huge dock, float on our Lily Pad. You can also kayak, play in the sand, or lounge on the dock net. The fishing is great. Check out the Lake of the Ozarks. Our house is the perfect headquarters with lots of kid friendly options that we would be happy to share with you.
Hundreds of guests have already fallen in love with the space (just check out the glowing reviews!). Your group deserves this getaway.
Why Choose Sol Mate?
Location, Location, Location: Sol Mate is centrally located for easy access to all the fun the Lake has to offer. Forget the long, winding roads—you're just a short drive from Osage Beach, state parks, great restaurants, and more.
Perfect for Groups: Whether it’s a multi-generational trip or a reunion with friends, Sol Mate offers plenty of space for everyone. The main level features a spacious, open floor plan with lake views, and the kid-friendly basement has a fun game room, plus a bunk room that sleeps up to 8. There is a cot in the closet. Need extra space? We also have nearby properties available for larger groups (just ask!). Our smaller sleeps 8 and is just two doors down.
Lakefront Perks
Private Dock & Sandy Beach: Sol Mate boasts a massive 65x40 private dock with covered slips, a PWC well, and a beach for kids to play. Relax in one of the six colorful Adirondack chairs on the beach, or take advantage of the water with the Aqua Lily Pad, kayaks, and easy lake access via the Wet Step.
Outdoor Fun: The large deck off the family room is perfect for gatherings, with bar seating, a dining area, a small gas grill, and even a Weber charcoal grill below. Enjoy sunsets on the dock, or cozy up by the fire pit on the lower patio.
Family-Friendly Layout
Bunk Room Fun: The basement has a bunk room that sleep seven and is ideal for the kids (or the whole family!). It features a king-sized bed for parents, plus a full bath with a walk-in shower and ample space for everyone to get ready. Lots of towel hooks too.
Comfortable Bedrooms: The three upstairs bedrooms (including the "Captain’s Quarters" king master) feature comfortable mattresses, quality linens and ample closet space, . All rooms have ceiling fans and bedside charging docks.
The Ultimate Game Room
Sol Mate’s basement is the ultimate play zone. Custom-painted walls by a local artist set the stage for endless fun with a pool table, Ms. Pac Man (new screen) and Big Game Hunter, 42” Roku TV, and board games for all ages. Head outside to the fire pit, hot tub, and picnic table for more outdoor enjoyment. And there's a convenient 1/2 bath right off the patio.
Kitchen & Dining
The fully stocked kitchen is perfect for cooking and entertaining. With a large granite island, Wolf cooktop, generous pantry space, and a variety of cooking gadgets (including a Ninja blender for smoothies and frozen cocktails), a high quality pancake griddle, and a crock pot. It’s an amateur chef’s dream. The spacious dining room seats 8, and there’s a second fridge downstairs for extra groceries and drinks.
Everything You Need & More
WiFi & Tech: Stay connected with the fastest fiber internet in the area. Our security cameras ensure peace of mind, with exterior coverage of the driveway and backyard.
Bathrooms & Amenities: We’ve thought of everything, from plush towels to shampoo and conditioner. The upstairs bathrooms feature a tub/shower combo and a walk-in shower in the master, plus a portable shower seat. We also have a porta crib available upon request.
Nearby Activities
For Anglers: Launch your boat just a mile away at Hurricane Deck Bridge, then dock it at our private slip. Or, rent a boat or water toys nearby at Pirates Point. Check with us for tips on where to go in the area. We do have 2 child and 2 adult kayaks.

You’re also close to major attractions like Bagnell Dam, Ha Ha Tonka State Park, and the Lake’s famous waterfront dining spots.
Let’s Talk Cleanliness
We’re committed to ensuring your stay is as comfortable as possible, which is why we work with a fantastic cleaning team. Our cleaning fees go directly to them, ensuring quality care. We do ask that guests complete a few simple tasks before departure to help keep things running smoothly by allowing our cleaners to focus on the most important thing which is cleaning vs. picking up, straightening or repairing.
FYI: the nightly rate reflects our $275 cleaning fee, which is the going rate at the lake. We also have a $50 pet fee and if the hot tub needs cleaning after your group leaves that could be a fee of $75 based on the lake averages. Please note that all of these fees go directly to our cleaning crews. We need to support a living wage for our lake service industry.
A Few Extra Details:
Parking for up to six cars, plus room for trailers.
Pet-friendly (please inquire about fees).
Flexible cancellation policy—because we know life happens you just need to ask!
Don’t Miss Out! If you’re planning a family reunion, large gathering, or simply a relaxing vacation at Lake of the Ozarks, Sol Mate is the place to be. We’re always updating and improving the home, so you’ll always have a fresh experience. If you need more space, check out our neighboring property, End of the Rainbow, for the perfect extended family vacation! It sleeps 8 and is just 2 doors down. We also have a small property in Overland Park, KS if you are traveling to Kansas City.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Load and start the dishwasher
Strip any used beds and gather used towels
Remove personal items, remove leftover food and drinks, and take out the trash
Turn off the lights
Return Lily Pad to original location and secure. Return outdoor equipment and furniture to original location. Thank you so much for all help you can provide.
We would be very grateful to you if you could start a load of towels prior to leaving. It helps with giving our cleaning crew more time to focus specifically on cleaning.
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
We must respect the neighbors. No loud partying after 11 p.m. Especially on the dock where the noise carries. Thank you.
Overfilling the trash can will be a $25 trash carry out fee. This fee will go directly to our cleaning team. We provide two very large bins.

Great stay! Property was exactly as described in the listing. Great location and the large dock was great for family fun, fishing, and parking 3 boats. Will definately be booking again for future trips to the lake.
Great house that gave us lots to do and places to chill. We are looking forward to staying again. The host was very reponsive and a joy to work with. We made many memories over the weekend.

I'm so glad to hear that you made memories. That is our top goal at Sol Mate. We raised our girls at the lake and cherish all the good times. Thanks so much for the kind words. It is greatly appreciated.
Great property and owners are very kind and helpful! Location is close to Captain Ron’s so it’s perfect for everyone. We love the sandy beach area and the swings on the dock. We’ll be back!

We are so thankful to hear that you and your family will be returning. We want you to keep creating family memories at the lake. Captain Ron's is a bonus for sure. And just a short walk away. Those swings are an added bonus, loved by kids and adults alike.
This was our 3rd time staying at Grandparent's Dream. We absolutely love the location, the house amenities, and the dock, which is where we spend most of our time. The no wake cove makes it perfect for hanging out in the water, or go exploring in one of the provided kayaks. Being within walking distance to Captain Ron's is a huge plus as well. Our family is hoping to come back to this location for many years to come.

Lee we always enjoy having your group as a guest. We can hear how much fun you are your family are having on the dock and it is awesome! Please do come back, but remember Sol Mate books up fast for the following year. We appreciate you!
Perfect place for kids! The dock provided endless fun with the swings, lily pad, and net. The house was a great size for our party of 12 (6 adults, 6 kids) with it's open main floor and large kitchen island. The host was very friendly, helpful and responsive. Using her recommendations on dining/attractions/jet ski rentals saved us time researching. We had an amazing time!

I am so happy to help with vacation planning at the lake. We've been here for over 40 years and have spent all of our summers coming to the lake with our girls and doing all the things. Lake of the Ozarks keeps improving and adding new things every year. Please come back again. Your kids will thank you......:)
Great location on the lake, dock was great to hang out on, swim, and just chill with the doggos. Highly recommend and will be back. Look to Lake Breeze Resort for reasonable boat rentals.

Great location! Close to everything but in a nice wake free cove. My kids loved the beach area and the dock. The owner was great to work with and stayed in touch the entire trip. Would highly recommend!

Thanks so much Dakotah. We love to hear that the kids had a great time! We're here for that! I appreciate your communication as well. Please come back and see us.
Our family of 8 plus fur babies enjoyed the dock, lake, kayaks, hot tub & large beautiful house with accommodations for all. The fishing could have been better but overall would highly recommend!

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Darn it though, I'm sorry about the fishing. We haven't received a lot of rain this spring so perhaps that had an affect on the fishing. I guess you'll have to come back and try again..... :) You would definitely be welcome!
Nice property. Plenty of room for multi families. Large dock on quiet cove. Close to local places to eat. Small sand beach was nice for young kids. Would look to book again.

Property was a lot of fun. Great space for our family, plenty of seating upstairs and downstairs. Our kids loved the large bedroom downstairs off of the game room. Will have to return in summer to swim and enjoy the water.

Thanks. Your recommendation is appreciated. We pride ourselves on great communication and are very proud of our large, flat yard. It's great for kids and adults. Especially when there is a wonderful lake in the background.
A few minor setbacks with some repairs being taken care of while there, but by far our favorite property to stay at on the lake! Can’t wait to come back for year 3!

About the host
Hosted by Kristina Iseman Mcginley
My husband and I call Prairie Village, Kansas home, but the Lake of the Ozarks is where we come to relax and enjoy. My husband's family built the first house on this cove back in the 50's. We own three properties in the cove. The lake is a place where we've made family memories with our two daughters and we hope our guests will do the same at Sol Mate. ALSO check out our other property in the same cove, End of the Rainbow (2321854). It sleeps 8 and is just two doors down.
Why they chose this property
You won't find a more centrally located place on the lake. You can get to many places with ease. No winding roads, no steep rocky yards. The flat lot is so great for children to run and play and the sandy beach with zero depth entry is great for the little ones as well. Having Captain Ron's just down the road is an added bonus. You're really feel like you are on vacation when you stay here. It's the best of all worlds. Our dock is FANTASTIC. The gathering spot for the week. People have so much fun hanging out while the kids play.
What makes this property unique
If you have kids, you'll want a lake house with a yard like this. Great for summer yard games. The zero-depth entry sandy beach is perfect for small kids to enter the water slowly vs. jumping off a dock. Your group will likely spend all day on this big dock. Stock the dock fridge with all of your beverages. Grandparents can house the entire family for a full week of reconnecting. We've hosted many reunions, and they all gave this house rave reviews.

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
