Great house for a large group

This house was great for multiple families with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. We enjoyed hanging out on the patio and using the hot tub. The teens had fun playing pool downstairs. We also enjoyed the neighborhood pool. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to the Branson area!

Perfect House For Family Get Together

We had the most wonderful time visiting family and staying in this home in Hollister. The house was large but cozy with so much room for family and activities. It is 3 levels which granted some seclusion when needed. The pool is zero entry so my young children could easily enter and exist. This house had everything we needed and I would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic home!

When we walked into this home we were amazed at how beautiful it was! So tastefully decorated even for Christmas! Everyone had their own room. Plenty of space for us all to relax. The hot tub was perfect! Breakfast around the table and later board games. The next day was spent at SDC. After a day there another relaxing time playing board games and celebrating Christmas together. Everything in the home was very clean. We had everything that we needed. The host always answered my questions promptly. You and your family would love staying in this home.

Black Bear Retreat

This was the perfect place for our group of 14, 3 families to stay! With three levels in the house, each family had their own space, but it also had a good set up for together time in the kitchen/living area and game/pool table area on the lower level. The house was very clean and had all amenities as advertised. The neighborhood pools were close and had a good amount of parking, and also had clean, easily accessible bathrooms in the clubhouse at the pool. The patio and hot tub were a hit as well. It made for a relaxing, long weekend. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Robyn Thompson

Host profile image
I am a 56 year old business lady who loves traveling. I have traveled over 180 days per year for 20 years so I know firsthand the challenges of staying at hotels. I wanted to have all the comforts of home when I am away and that is why I love hosting guests. I can give them beautiful accommodations with all the comforts of home. I started hosting in 2017 and have over 600 guests stay. I have 12 properties that range from a small 2 bedroom in my home town of Ocala, FL to an 80 acre working horse ranch.
Two years ago, I fell in love with Branson Mo. I love the shows, the lakes, all the fun things to do, the great restaurants and the endless fun that Branson has to offer. I now own 7 nicely furnished homes in Branson Canyon ranging from 4-7 bedrooms and nothing makes me happier than families coming together to have the times of their lives and making life long memories at my homes.

Why they chose this property

It's not just another vacation house; it's built to the highest standards. We want you to enjoy it as much as we do, so we put tender loving care in every detail. It's set just away from all the busyness of town so that you can enjoy the beauty of the Ozarks, but close enough to the major attractions. It's perfect for family gatherings, church groups, and folks who appreciate privacy and the best kept secret in Missouri!

What makes this property unique

Lake View Lodge is one of the most beautiful and large homes you will encounter in the Branson area. Silver Dollar City, Top of the Rock, The Landing, Shopping , and Table Rock Lake are just a few places to visit when you stay at Lake View Lodge. This is an upscale, rustic, lodge style home. You will enjoy beautiful mornings and breathtaking evenings from our screened in porch. There are also many natural attractions outside surrounding this home. We want everyone to enjoy their time and each other at Lake View Lodge.
