This home was absolutely beautiful and the details were amazing. We enjoyed our family vacation sitting on the dock with the fire or on the back porch grilling. The owners were so nice and checked in with us daily to make sure everything was going good. It had everything we needed and more. The neighborhood was nice and we enjoyed walks and runs along the river. We had 3 girls under 12 and we had planned to let them play in the water. But the current is very strong there and the water is only 48 degrees. We didn’t research that beforehand. But we were able to have a fishing guide pick us up right at the dock, which was so nice. And the drive to Table Rock Lake is only about 10-15 as well as trips to town. Would highly recommend staying here to enjoy your time in Missouri. I bet it’s even more gorgeous during the holidays.

Amazing Location

Location is beautiful and convenient to everything we wanted to do in Branson. We fished off the dock and hired a trout guide one morning who picked us up at the dock. So convenient! Owners and property manager were quick to respond to any questions or issues we had. Overall very comfortable stay and private backyard while being close to activities in Branson.

Perfect place for my family of 16 to stay. The house had everything we needed. Location was close to everything. Decor was beautiful. The hosts were so accommodating. She had it decorated for the 4th of July. My family lived sitting by the fire pit at night. 10/10 recommend this place.

Couples Retreat

Long weekend trip for our couple friend group, we enjoyed the house so much. It was a beautiful house and decorated so cute for Christmas. It was perfect for 4 couples and the pictures did not do it justice. It has anything and everything you could possible need to enjoy your stay.

Our family had a "cousin's reunion" at the property in Sept. 2025. The house was clean and well laid out. There are several places for small groups to gather and chat. We hung out for four days and fished, rented a boat from Lillie's that pulled up to the dock, and grilled and ate all our meals in the backyard. Great time. Great host.

Awesome place

The property is well kept and maintained. It is provided with everything we needed; linens, towels, bicycles, kayakers, board games, etc. the location is superb right on the river, which gets foggy often (hence the name of the street). This phenomenon added more beauty and serenity. Will definitely come back again.
