Great weekend getaway to the Lake!

My former college roommates and I had a great experience staying here for the weekend! The house was clean (looked clean, smelled clean), the beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of space inside and outside to hangout, play games, and talk. The access to water was perfect- we swam close to the dock with innertubes and noodles that we brought. The hosts were easy to communicate with. We all agreed we would stay again!

Great stay

We were a group of 3 families for a total of 10 (4 kids 6 adults). The driveway is steep like all lake houses but this one was concrete so that was nice. The inside of the house was clean and beautiful. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. The outside furniture needs to be wiped off before you sit on. The spiders are drawn to it like he would have to do at home. We rented a boat for a day and we’re close to all the main restaurants and bars.

Lake Vacay

Property was very clean and well stocked! I’ve never stayed at a property that was stocked with basic essentials. Scott and Hannah were very responsive with any and all questions we had while there. House was beautiful and the kids loved swimming by the dock. House was plenty big for everyone. As noted the driveway is very steep. A little challenging with a big truck and long boat having to take it out of the water each day. Other than that it was perfect! Would definitely stay again!

Our favorite Ozarks house so far!

We loved everything about the house itself! The house was clean and felt like home when we arrived. The kitchen has so much storage space and had everything we needed for the week. We met the property manager, Maggie, and she's wonderful too! We spent dozens of hours on the upper deck as its fully covered, has ceiling fans and comfy furniture! We loved the seating area by the water too! The boys caught lots of fish: gar, small mouth bass, crappie, catfish, drums. The girls enjoyed floating and swimming! Our only wish was for a slip with lift to be able to rent a boat overnight. As a group, we all agreed this was our favorite house so far!

Lovely Lake Home

This was a great lake home at the Lake of the Ozarks. Nestled into a quiet cove on the west side of the lake. The home features 2 bedrooms upstairs (master bed room and full bunk bedroom) as well as two bedrooms on the bottom floor. Beds are very comfortable and cozy. One bedroom downstairs has room for a small air mattress and both the bunk room and master can also fit one. The kitchen is set up with everything you need to cook as well as an outdoor grill on the patio. The home also has the full bathrooms so getting ready with a large group is not an issue. Outside the drive is a bit steep but we did not have any problems. At the back of the house there is a updated fireplace and dock. The water is deep so bring floaties for your non-smimmers. The kids enjoyed swimming and fishing all day when we were not off exploring the Ozarks. The owners are very responsive and helpful to any of your needs. From losing the key (I found it) to needing more propane, the answered right away and took care of it. If your looking to plan a family vaction to the Ozarks with a large family or small this home will be peffect for you. We had a wonderful time and it is actually nicer in person than the photos show. Usually that's the other way around!

This lake front property is amazing, and much larger than the pictures depict. My husband and I with our two teens had a fantastic time and were very comfortable with the rooms. The kitchen is well stocked with the needed kitchen ware. We loved relaxing on the covered porch, and listening to the sounds of the lake. The dock is perfect for swimming and fishing off of. There is a gas grill and gas fire pit, both of which we enjoyed. Our kids also enjoyed the ping pong table. The walk to the dock is easy as it is paved the whole way from the back door out the basement. 5 stars…we really enjoyed this place!
