One of the best rentals we’ve ever stayed at! They really thought of everything you could possibly need. Check-in was easy, there is so much room (we had 5 adults and 3 kids), and it was so clean! We had no boat but had an amazing time hanging out on the dock every day/night. The lilypad was perfect for the kids. The host responded instantly every time I reached out to her before and during the stay. I left a handful of items there accidentally and they mailed them back to me immediately, no charge. We will 100% be back! Came back to add- GREAT FISHING!

Perfect!

Everything was perfect for our stay! Communication was prompt and informative before, during, and after our stay. The property was spacious and comfortable for our group of 6 adults, 2 kids(2 & 4), and 2 dogs. It was stocked with everything needed plus some for our week long stay. The location is perfect as well, only a few minutes from town, and if youre planning to be on the water, the cove is plenty big to play in or head out into the main channel for bigger water. The 2 giant decks are gated and secure, very nice since we had young kids and pets. We loved the huge dock also, we were able to fish, swim, and dock the boat we had rented for our stay. Zero complaints, one of, if not the best property we've stayed in and will be renting again next summer!

LOTO Getaway

Great property and would gladly stay again. The house, deck, and dock offer tons of places to hang out and enjoy the lake life. The driveway is a little skinny and steep so getting larger vehicles in can be a bit tricky but made it work!

Dad's Retirement

We stayed for my dad's retirement. The house was perfect for our stay. The host was very thoughtful and left a personalized gift for my dad. We have stayed at other rentals in the past and this is the first host to leave a gift! The house is close to shops, restaurants, and attractions. The road driving in is very narrow, luckily we never came upon another vehicle. Parking is great for three vehicles. The pier was perfect for fishing and swimming.

Amazing House

This house is perfect and we will for sure be back! The house had everything you could need. The beds were comfortable, it was clean and the decks were an amazing view. The dock was awesome. We used their Lilly pad and floated all weekend. Being pretty close to the channel, you do get some waves but the dock deadened it all and we never had an issue. We even were granted early entrances as well since the house was available! I recommend the stay to everyone!

Perfect location and setting

We were traveling with a family of eight adults and four children and this place was perfect. When we all walked in after finding it easily with the detailed directions given to us immediately we were all blown away by the view from the deck and the large dock and swim platform. Everything we needed for the group we were with was provided and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their time. There was a lily pad that was included and eight room to dock our boat we rented. We cooked large meals for breakfast lunch and dinner and used the large black stone grill for just about everything. At the end of our trip, it was a unanimous 10/10 rating from everyone and we would love to come back again.

Winter at the lake

The house beat expectations for sure. Stayed during the sub zero temps and light snow in December. Well equipped to cook a holiday meal. The deck was nice..didn't make it to the dock due to the biting cold. The road was concrete and steep with no guard rail in the ice and wind so it was a bit hairy the first time down... Overall, we had a great time. Thanks!

Very nice Property!

We enjoyed our stay at the Lake House! Wish it were Summer but we made due! She has everything you could think of here l. Fully stocked my only down side was the getting here as the hills are narrow and very steep. Not ideal for bad weather and/or small cars- I got stuck coming in and it is a one way. Great for Privacy however. I do wish there was more land around for walking but it is a great lake-house. We brought my 90 year old grand mother who took all the steps down to the dock area. Jess responds very quickly and is very helpful! The place beautiful and the deck areas are a dream! Enjoy!

Great space for our large family

We had our five adult children with us and our dogs. The house was well suited and laid out for us all. The gates on the deck and dock were great. The dock was well-supplied with everything we needed for lake fun. The decks were shady and perfect for us all to eat, play games, and visit. We will definitely come back!

Labor Day Fun

The house was very clean and very well stocked! They thought of everything honestly. It's well decorated and their dock was so much fun floating off of. Lake there is deep and clean. Free from seaweed. Location on land is excellent as well. We had a captain for one of the days who picked us up from the dock. Entire weekend was so relaxing!

Why they chose this property

THE VIEW, PRIME LOCATION, and DOCK! We had been looking for a lake house at the Ozarks for a couple of years but what won our hearts on this home was the second we walked out the doors to the covered decks....that view just took our breathe away. No other homes we looked at could compare to the view and outdoor space that this home had to offer and when at the lake were else better to be than enjoying the great outdoors. Some of our favorite memories are made while sipping coffee in the mornings off the upper deck, soaking in the sun and swimming off the dock, and watching the sun sets in the evening from the decks. We welcome you to our home and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
