Amazing Wedding Weekend on Ox Lake

This residence was a great place to stay with friends and family. Clay was very helpful and accommodating with us having our small wedding (30 people) here. It was the perfect setting for an outdoor wedding. Everything about the house was clean and taken care of. Just remember to bring your own pool cues!

This property went above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. Our family spent a long weekend here and celebrated our wedding on the most beautiful Saturday afternoon. Surrounded by our closest family and friends, we had a lakeside ceremony, dinner on the patio, and dancing in the dogtrot. The evening was capped by a warm fire in the dogtrot and a rainbow over the house – it felt like something out of a dream!Our families and friends couldn’t stop raving about the home – inside and out, it’s clean, spacious, and very welcoming. There are so many amazing, comfy spots to hangout. One of our favorite moments was being greeted by a family of deer as we pulled in our first day. Each morning, they’d wander through while we sipped coffee and soaked in the view. We also saw eagles, loons and friendly chipmunks. The mix of comfort, nature, and beauty here is unmatched.From the very beginning, Clay and Angi were wonderful to work with. Their communication was thoughtful and detailed, which made everything run so smoothly. This wasn’t just a weekend getaway. It became the backdrop for one of the most meaningful moments of our lives. We are excited to comeback to celebrate our anniversaries for years to come!
Our lakeside ceremony.
Rainbow!

Beautiful Home

A beautiful home in a lovely location full of wonderful amenities. We really enjoyed time both inside and outside the house. Evening fires on the dogtrot were our favorite. Clay and Angi were great hosts and easy to communicate with. They made us feel right at home! The beds were super comfy, and there was room enough for everyone without feeling like we were on top of each other. We would love to come back again, as the value for a stay of this caliber was excellent!

Excellent for families!!!!

Our family with teenage children absolutely LOVED our stay here. The home is beautiful with great views. The home had everything we needed for kitchen utensils and appliances. The lake was perfect and the kids caught a lot of fish. Grocery stores were close and other convenient restaurants nearby. The owner is very thorough and responds quickly if there were any questions. Our kids asked to return to this property. Highly highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by CM

Host profile image
We live and work in Arkansas for now but this is our home and your stay here will reflect that care and attention to detail. Please be aware that VRBO does NOT collect a damage deposit or require a lease. We require a damage deposit protection of $2,000 ($1,000 additional in cash with approved pets) be put down prior to accepting your reservation which is final once the lease is signed. If you have questions on these items please ask them prior to Instant Booking. Every guest we have hosted here has gone through this same process. Please read our reviews. My name is Clay Moser and I'm a basketball coach. Please feel free to google search me and vet me prior to booking. We will do the same with you.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for a resort style yet family friendly Up North experience for a big or small group, this is the place. Calculate what it would cost you for more than one family to stay at an area resort and see how it compares to having the privacy and intimacy of your own house for the duration of your stay.

What makes this property unique

6 1/2 Acres. 'Dogtrot' or breezeway with fireplace. 178' of Private Lake Shore and beachfront. This is a private lake. Serene. Typically not very busy. You will be right across the road from the Whitefish Chain of Lakes so if you want more action you can have it within minutes. We have our own landing capable of handling jet ski or small aluminum fishing boats. For larger vessels you can put in numerous places on the Whitefish Chain or rent a boat or pontoon through us. While this is a private home on a private lake with a private dock and lift...there is the practical matter of the dock having to be installed in the Spring and removed in the Fall. This is dependent on the weather, weather forecast and schedule of the installer.
