About this property

Whistle’s Echo | Sweeping Ozark Views, 5 Mins to SDC

Welcome to Whistle’s Echo at Notch Estates, your peaceful mountaintop escape just minutes from the excitement of Silver Dollar City. Perched on the top floor of a quiet corner building, this cozy condo is all about the views—breathtaking, south-facing vistas of the Ozark Mountains stretch out before you from the expansive private deck. And if you listen closely, you’ll hear the whistle of the Silver Dollar City steam train echoing across the ridgeline—it’s the kind of moment you won’t soon forget.

Inside, you’ll find:
• Two comfortable queen bedrooms with Smart TVs and ceiling fans
• A split floor plan for added privacy
• Two full bathrooms, including a private ensuite for the primary bedroom
• Full kitchen with bar seating for four and all the essentials
• Vaulted ceilings and lots of natural light
• Living room with a sleeper sofa, two recliners, and HDTV
• Laundry closet with washer and dryer (detergent included)

Outside:
• Huge private deck with sweeping Ozark Mountain views
• Quiet end-unit setting with no neighbors above
• One flight of covered exterior stairs from the parking lot
• Walkable to two seasonal pools, basketball, a playground, and hiking trails
• Picnic areas with grills and a scenic catch-and-release pond

It’s a perfect basecamp for families, couples, or anyone looking to slow down, take in the view, and enjoy Branson’s best attractions just minutes away. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck, playing cards as the sun sets, or listening for that distant train whistle, Whistle’s Echo is a place to make memories.

Nice place to stay for 2 senior couples who wanted to enjoy Silver Dollar City for a day. Great communication. I really liked that the living room had a couch plus 2 lounge chairs. It made it easy for us to visit without being on top of each other.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this property! From the moment we arrived, we could tell the home was well taken care of clean, organized, and thoughtfully stocked with everything a family might need. We were especially impressed by the little touches, like extra toiletries and even free and clear laundry detergent (which is a huge plus when traveling with kids who have sensitive skin).The location was perfect for us. Nestled in a quiet area, we had the peace of the Ozarks while still being just a short, easy drive into Branson. Getting to all the popular attractions like Shepherd of the Hills, Table Rock Lake, and the Branson Strip was quick and stress-free. It made planning each day simple and enjoyable, without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.This place was truly a home away from home, and we appreciated how the hosts went the extra mile to make sure guests are comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to any family looking for a relaxing, convenient spot to explore Branson!

Perfect location & atmosphere

We stayed for a softball tournament. This was the perfect location giving us opportunities to explore but also being close to both softball facilities. We enjoyed the pools as well as the pavilions and used them for team dinners and gatherings. We will definitely return if in Branson again.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Luth

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Chris—travel enthusiast, operations director in the travel industry, and your host here in Branson. I’ve spent much of my life exploring new places and helping others do the same, so I know how important it is to have a clean, comfortable, and well-equipped space to come back to after a day of sightseeing, shows, or lake adventures.

Whether I’m traveling for work or leisure, I always appreciate thoughtful touches and smooth experiences—and that’s exactly what I strive to provide for my guests. I hope you’ll feel at home during your stay and enjoy everything that makes Branson such a fun and unique destination.

Why they chose this property

This unit feels special the moment you step out onto the deck. The view of the Ozark Mountains is wide open and peaceful, and the sound of the Silver Dollar City steam train whistle echoing across the hills makes you stop and take it all in. The location is perfect—secluded and serene, but just minutes from shows, shopping, lakes, and of course SDC.

What makes this property unique

Few places in Branson offer this kind of mountain view and peace—especially so close to Silver Dollar City. This corner unit has no neighbors above, a vaulted ceiling that opens up the space, and a large, private deck where you can listen to the train whistle, enjoy your morning coffee, or play a board game in the evening breeze. The hiking trail, pools, and pond make it feel like a true Ozarks escape.
