Wonderful stay! Hot tub and deck areas were great for our girls trip. Kitchen was well stocked. House was clean. The cove was quite busy due to the marina nearby, but we were still able to swim with no issues. Overall we loved our stay!

Hi Stephanie, thanks for the kind words. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay. Please think of us again whenever you come back to the lake! Andrew
Property was nice. Nice to have a private dock. Only issue was there was an excessive amount of large spiders on the front/back porches. Was difficult to spend time outside
The check-in process went smoothly and Andre kept us informed timely of the process. The property was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It is perfectly located, close to attractions and restaurants as well as being able to disconnect and enjoy nature.

Fantastic Value
Fantastic property in a great location that was exactly as advertised. The home had plenty of space for our group with a gorgeous multi-tiered deck and friendly neighbors. The house rules and checkout procedures were incredibly reasonable. Perfect stay, no notes.
the whole house was great- the kitchen the hot tub but our favorite place was the covered deck right off the kitchen. I think we spent our whole time there, looking out at the lake and enjoying the view. It was exactly what we needed and even made friends with a few kittens that decided to visit us. Andrew was a great host and communicated in real time and was able to answer all our questions. Highly recommend
We had a fabulous time staying at the property. Andrew responded very quickly and was excellent about helping out. All of the neighbors were very kind and also spoke highly of him! The house offered plenty of space for our group, the outdoor seating was fabulous, and the view was great. We’ll be back!

Lyndsey, thanks for the awesome review. It would be our pleasure to host you again at any of our three properties.
Pros: Location was great. Close to the marina, bars and grocery store. The covered patio was perfect for our group of 6. We spent a lot of time there, including one day when it was raining. The dock was nice and roomy. Jumping platform and stairs into the water were great. Andrew was great to work with and very responsive. Cons: The bedrooms were a little smaller than expected. The dresser drawers in the master room were difficult to open. The trip up and down to the lake involves a lot of steps. The very last step that leads to the dock felt a little dangerous as it was a further step down to the dock than the rest. Use caution.

Hi Danielle! We appreciate the time you took to leave us feedback. I agree, it is a lot of steps to the water! We try to have enough pictures to identify that in our listing. If you ever return to the lake, please let me know and we would love to set you up at one of our other properties with less stairs down to the dock. Andrew
Overall very clean. Furniture in living room especially is a bit dated. Kitchen is nice but appliances are low end or mid grade. Bedrooms are small but comfortable. Bathrooms are small and shower and bathroom fixtures are older.Location is great and all decks provide great views. Owner was very responsive to an issue with the hot tub.Would suggest having bath soap available.

Hi Sally, we appreciate you taking the time to review our property, and yes, although not every aspect of the house is "brand new," we're glad to hear you made the most of the outdoor spaces, which is exactly what we do when we visit. Thanks! -Andrew

Andrew is a great host! We truly enjoyed this home! It had everything we needed! We would definitely stay here again!
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

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!
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.

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.
