We absolutely loved this property! It was prepped perfectly for our weekend stay. The host went the extra distance to make sure this special weekend was trouble free and full of memories and enjoyment for my family. A beautiful place to stay at anytime of the year. Come for the pool, the fall colors, or hopefully get snowed in! It’s very nice to work with a host that has your best interests at heart. Property kitchen is stocked for cooking your own breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Do not ever hesitate to schedule a stay here! Well done!! JB
Great place! Had a great time swimming and fishing with the guys. Property is beautiful with a great view. It’s a great place to meet up with friends or family for the weekend! Great communication from the host too. No complaints at all!
This was our third girls trip to Big Oak Lodge and it did not disappoint. The setting is gorgeous and relaxing. Great pool...the slide is so much fun. Perfect place to enjoy a sunset with a glass of wine. This year we were able to watch the lunar eclipse and all the stars. It was wonderful. We'll be back. Thank you.
This property is simply amazing!! Randy , the host was excellent to communicate with!! The house is stocked with everything you can think of!! The pool and outdoor kitchen was top notch!! We will definitely be returning!
Our family enjoyed our stay, especially the wonderful heated pool, fishing in the pond, and hot tub. The property was beautiful, especially the sunsets at night. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed. Communication from the host was excellent and he checked in with us several times. Our questions were answered quickly.The BrownsJuly 2026
We enjoyed our stay! The house was up to date and clean! There were beautiful views out every window. The grandkids loved the pool! Having a deep freezer in the kitchen, helped a lot! Supplying bagged ice was a very nice addition!!! The older kids enjoyed going out on the lake, and using the boat. It was a very relaxing weekend !! Thank you!!
My family and I had an incredible time at Big Oak Lodge. We were looking for a quiet place to unwind and detach from technology. From the awesome pool, hot tub and fishing, we spent a lot of good quality time together and never had to leave the beautiful property. The sunsets were also pretty amazing!
This is a perfect spot for a relaxed vacation. House, pool, hot tub, and fishing pond. Great family fun and the host was simply outstanding. Thanks for everything.
Amazing property!!!! Plenty of things for everyone to do. Great pond with plenty of fish. Pool was great and very refreshing. Hot tub was very relaxing. Outdoor kitchen and tv area are perfect for entertaining by the pool. Great host!! plenty of communication. The entire property is clean and very well maintained. Will definitely be back!!!
Another great stay at “The Belle House” - my kids love any chance we get to come play in the pool, relax in the hot tub, and fish in the pond. We look forward to coming back!
I stayed here with my wife and in-laws for three nights in the summer. Plenty of space for our three small families; we had a great time keeping cool in the pool, in the many lounging areas both inside. We are already discussing a return visit next year!
We had an enjoyable time at this property. The pool and hot tub were perfect. The view was awesome. We made a day trip to Fugitive Beach, went in town for ice cream a few times, and tried the pizza place. This location suited everyone in our party from ages 5-82.
The property was beautiful. The pond and pool were both main attractions. Lots of room and comfort in the house and on the deck. Tyler was a great host and easy to communicate with. We had a great week!!
This was our third time staying, and like the first two times, the property and home were wonderful! The owners have great communication and are wonderful hosts. We will be back again, I’m sure (and hopefully for longer next time!).
Stayed 3 nights in May 2025

What makes this property unique
This is a truly amazing property in a scenic area of mid-Missouri. It is easy to reach and private when you're there. It is protected by 24 hour, exterior video home security for the protection of the owners and their property AND all guests and guests' property. There are 3 clearly visible exterior cameras covering the driveway & parking lot, both sides and rear of the home, including the pool area. No audio is recorded. Security cameras exist solely for home security and risk management. There are no interior cameras. The property is beautiful as the seasons change as spring, turns to summer and on to fall as hundreds of flowers from all over the world bloom on the landscaped, manicured grounds overlooking the 5 acre lake and majestic Osage county views. It is an amazing place to be.
