Relaxing and Serene
My stay was relaxing and serene—exactly what I was hoping for! Everything listed in the description and amenities was available and just as described. The host was friendly and easy to communicate with, making the experience smooth from start to finish. I especially loved the beautiful lake views from the various sitting areas around the property. A peaceful getaway I’d definitely recommend!

Great Place to Stay!
Andrew is a great host! We truly enjoyed this home! It had everything we needed! We would definitely stay here again!
Nice place to stay in the fairly secluded Cove we were able to bring our boat and park it on the side of the dock which worked out perfect with plenty of bumpers just around the corner. There’s a nice restaurant the boathouse which is a very upscale place has a swim up pool bar. There’s three gas stations within half hour mile of the place the lake is very great miles of boat rides and things to see caught some fish while we’re there we definitely will be back

This place was Amazing!
Just like home! The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were so comfy, and the view from the large decks was so amazing! This home was spotless and decorated perfectly. Don't hesitate, just go ahead and book now! The owner was very nice and quick to respond to my questions. There is also a nice big driveway and only a couple of steps, which made it so easy for me to carry my luggage inside. Thank you for the great memories.
We stayed 3 nights in late September and enjoyed our three nights. It was quiet and the accommodations were great. We loved the location and would recommend for a getaway or family vacation
Wife & I enjoyed the time we spent here. Great place, quite, very clean and very relaxing ! Highly recommended if you wanna get away. Foliage was beautiful!!
Came up to visit friends and this place was perfect. Had everything we needed to cook and relax. It rained and was cold the entire time but the covered deck still allowed us to grill. Definitely would stay here again.

Colleen, I am so glad you came and enjoyed your time at the lake. Thank you for staying with us!
We enjoyed a relaxing weekend on the lake at the house. The fire pit was great for making s’mores in the evening. The house was cozy and beds were comfortable.

Relaxing and Peaceful
Our stay at Making Waves was absolutely perfect. The home, deck, and dock were all stunning—every space was thoughtfully designed and beautifully maintained. The amenities and supplies went above and beyond anything we expected; from the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy touches throughout the home, it truly felt like a luxurious bed and breakfast. It was the perfect pocket of peace for our group—a serene, welcoming escape that we’ll never forget. Highly recommend!
It was great! All the kitchen things to cook a Thanksgiving feast and room to relax! Hot tub and fishing off the dock was also a highlight. Highly recommend!

I self manage my rentals and take great pride in the properties we renovate and offer to our guests. We live in St. Louis but spend every extra minute we can at the lake. While we're not there, we love sharing the house with others to experience "lake life" and all the Ozarks has to offer.
