Lake Life

This house is perfect for families to get together and hang out at the lake. They have paddle boats available for use, which added so much fun to our stay. The downstairs game room is ideal for game nights and kept everyone entertained. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend it!

Quiet get away right on the lake

Loved this property! Kids, grandboys and us all enjoyed this property! The beds were comfy, the kitchen was big enough to cook together in, the family entertainment area downstairs was a treat! we really enjoyed that in the heat of the day, then down to the water for an evening swim. Boat launch was just minutes away!

Great location!

The location is great! It’s close to Shell knob, a marina, 45 minutes too Branson. The beds are amazingly comfortable. The house is fully stocked. There were lots of supplies for making food. The owner reached out welcoming us. The back yard is the perfect hang out location and the shoreline kept us busy during the day.

Perfect getaway

This was the absolutely perfect location for friends just needing a short getaway. So nice to leave the city and decompress in the woods by the lake. The house was immaculate and stocked with everything we may need in case we forgot something. The fire pit in the back is perfect. In fact, we spent an entire fall day sitting around the fire, looking at the lake and enjoying time together.

Fabulous

This property was an amazing place to get away from the hustle and bustle. Loved waking up in the morning and going out onto the deck and just looking at the lake and listening to the birds. Took the canoe and paddle boats out exploring a couple times. And when the weather turned rainy, we played pool, Pacman, and watched a movie downstairs. It was a very relaxing week away from reality.

Fun in the sun

The place was as pretty and nice as pictured. Such a nice big kitchen, fun game room downstairs, and really comfortable beds. Having lake access without having to drive and a canoe to paddle such a gorgeous area of the lake is always a plus. The only thing you will want to consider is, if you are unsteady on your feet or not real fit, the slope could be challenging getting back up the hill. I'm older, overweight and have never done inclines well. So I was very glad they had a picnic table halfway up for me to sit and catch my breath. Most people will not have a problem, just looking out for those that are like me.

LiVING THE LAKE LIFE

My wife and I stayed at Lakefront Gem for two wonderful weeks. The house was really comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out on the covered deck in the mornings watching the lake come to life. we saw deer squirrels and song birds and even fish jumping. The Master bedroom was very comfortable and they had plenty of blankets and pillows to use. The living room upstairs comfortable furniture to watch TV which was a nice big screen. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook what you want for breakfast lunch and dinner. The gas grill does a great job on steaks as well as burgers. There were times we ate out while in Branson and several other towns that we visited, Shell Knob is just up the road and has a good grocery store that we were able to get some nice steaks from. as well as all of our grocery needs. Branson is about 45 minutes away which might sound a bit far but if you are wanting to get away from all the crowds and have a quite place to relax which is what we wanted the this is the place. The boat ramp is 3 minutes down the road and is really nice. I've launched my boat from a lot of different boat ramps that were steep but this one has a nice slope to it. The weather was magnificent you could not ask for better conditions. Now of course the hosts can't guarantee that you will have wonderful weather they do provide you with plenty to do in the cabin if the weather does turn and they are very nice and if you need anything they will do their best to accommodate you. As for the fishing we did catch a few bass and saw wildlife along the shore. All in all we had a wonderful time and if we decide to go back to stay at Table Rock Lake we will definitely stay here again.

Very professional and easy. I have known the owners of this place for over 30 years and they live on the lake and know how to host folks that are new to the area. Awesome people.

Relaxing Vacation, Stunning View

This house was perfect! It had everything we could ask for and more! The house was clean and the beds were super comfortable. Our kids loved being able to go out on the water with the canoe and paddle boat whenever they wanted and enjoyed swimming in the lake. And for those of you who won't believe a review unless there is something negative too... the water pressure in the showers was a little weak. Ok, go ahead, now you can book the house :)

Great house!!

This is a beautiful property! The owners thought of everything. We were shocked at how stocked everything was. Super clean! The location is great. Be sure to check out Eureka Springs! Plenty to do in the area. If you’re coming to the area, this is a perfect place to stay. We did come back from Branson one day and the AC was out. We decided to leave a day early because of it. But the owners were very responsive and had someone coming out that day. We just figured it would be easier just to head to our next destination.
