When you choose Stay at Scenic Drive, you can enjoy the lake—not stress over the lake!
Nestled in a calm, protected cove near the Bagnell Dam, Stay at Scenic Drive offers the kind of convenience that's hard to find at Lake of the Ozarks. Skip the gravel roads, rough water, heavy main-channel traffic, and hiking up and down flights of stairs just to unload the car before your vacation even begins.
Instead, enjoy paved two-lane roads to the property, a large private dock with covered 13x32 slip open for guest use, a flat driveway with zero-step access into the main level of the home, easy docking, and calm water that's perfect for swimming, floating, fishing, and relaxing. Close to the action when you want it, yet tucked away when you don't, it's the best of both worlds.
