Woodland Retreat with Private Pool and Boat Parking near Truman Lake

Experience Fall at Boulder Hollow Hideaway – A Peaceful Truman Lake Area Getaway

Autumn is one of the most beautiful times of year here—our favorite season! The hickory trees turn golden, fall wildflowers bloom, and warm days linger just long enough to keep the pool open. Local fall festivals pop up around the area, and the cooler temps make for perfect fishing weather on the lake.

Our cozy and well-appointed walkout basement apartment offers everything you need for a comfortable stay: a spacious king bedroom, large living room, oversized walk-in shower, and a generous kitchenette area for easy meals and snacks.

Step outside and discover what truly makes our place special:
600 sq. ft. of covered deck space with a dining area, Weber grill, lounge area, porch swing, bar, dart board, and a private above-ground pool with its own sun deck. At night, gather around the lit firepit under the stars.

Wander the garden paths, visit our quarter-acre pond, and meet our giant Blue Catfish (feeding only, no fishing allowed). The property is surrounded by lush forest with large boulder gardens at each end of the yard—our namesake. Lit walking paths let you enjoy the outdoors day or night.

For fishing enthusiasts, Windsor Crossing (Tebo Creek arm) is just 3 miles away—a quiet launch spot for crappie fishing and perfect for kayakers (ask us about directions to the old quarry site for a great kayak/swimming experience)—while Long Shoal Marina is 8 miles in the other direction, with boat slips available. A fish cleaning station is provided on-site, and we’ll happily compost the waste in our garden.

Nearby favorites include boat rentals at Hickory Hollow Resort (2 miles), plus local spots like Dollar General, Running Wild BBQ food truck, Frank’s Fish Shack, and Donna’s Diner—famous for the best tenderloin around. NOTE: restaurants nearby are usually closed earlier in the week so be sure to check first for hours of operation.

The Perfect Peaceful Relaxing Stay

I traveled in with my husband for a fishing tournament. The location is perfect for getting to the lake. While he was pre fishing I stayed on the porch and got a lot of work done on a big project with zero distractions! Peaceful Progress. This place is perfect for a writer or a reader, or anyone who wants to get away! It’s so beautiful with all of the sounds of nature. The landscape and pond (with fountain and catfish you can feed) have quite the calming effect. The hosts are incredible, the accommodations are extremely comfortable, and this will be our go to spot every year! One of my favorite stays to date! Highly Recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Aron and Jennifer

Hi, we’re Aron and Jennifer!

We fell in love with this property the moment we pulled up. It needed some TLC, but we immediately saw its potential. Since then, we’ve been slowly creating a small homestead that also serves as a peaceful vacation retreat.

Our hosting journey began with The Bella Vista (also listed on VRBO), and after such a positive experience with guests and the area, we thought—why not share a bit more of our little slice of serenity?

As retired veterans, we still love a good day’s work. We’re continuing to develop the property with hopes of eventually growing enough to sustain ourselves and our local wildlife—especially the deer, who we have a bit of a love-hate relationship with!

We’d be honored to host you and hope you’ll enjoy the space as much as we

Why they chose this property

Jennifer grew up spending summers on Truman Lake and we instantly fell in love with Boulder Hollow from our first visit. The beautiful private setting was a dream come true for us.

What makes this property unique

Boulder Hollow is a little nature oasis tucked deep into a hardwood forest. We not only offer immersion in nature but a nice array of comforts and amenities to make it a great stay for one night or one week.
