nestled in the back of a cove, it made it a great place to Kayak, swim, and fish. The large screened in back porch is where we spent a lot of time when we were not on the private dock just steps away. The house is very nice and comfortable and plenty of space and well supplied. No reason to leave to go any where but there is a Dollar General and a bait store, gasoline, right down the road. Camdenton is also just a few miles away and we did go to Ha Ha Tonka, which is close by, one morning. I had a question for the host and got a quick response. There were 8 of us and we stayed four nights and we all agreed that we want to come back there again. ( Adults and Kids ) We had lots of fun.
