Quiet and calm experience

Rocking bar B was the best place to stay, super clean and great amenities with the house. Big Bay cove is a very quiet and calm cove for the kids to play and kayak in. Loved the place.

Friends weekend

We have stayed here multiple times. This house is perfect for a large group of friends or family. The spacious back deck and front yard fire pit are inviting and a great place to relax after a day on the lake or site seeing. The host is great and communicates in a timely manner if there are any questions.

A true gem on the lake

We have had several nice stays at VRBO's in the Shell Knob area, but this property is our new favorite and we have already reserved it for next year. We had 9 adults and a 3 year old. There is so much space, both indoor and outdoor. We wanted for nothing as the host had the property completely ready for us. The property is clean and in a quiet area with lake views.

Shell Knob With A View

This home was beautiful, and had plenty of room to spread out with four adults and four children. Although not directly on the waterfront, the lake was easily accessible through a neighboring lot. I would definitely recommend this location as a vacation destination!

Weekend Getaway with Friends

This place is beautiful!! I would recommend this home as a great place to stay on your next trip to the lake. Feet away from the water, goregous house with all of the amenities you could ask for. We went with a group of 6. Very spacious and comfortable. I will absolutley be going back again for future vacations.

Nice lake house

It's a nice house by the lake. The pictures do make it seem alot closer to the lake than it is, there's actually another home between you and the lake. But other than that its a very nice lake home.

First time to Shell Knob

We so loved our stay at the Bornholdt’s lake home. The house was exactly what was described online and exceeded our expectations with the cleanliness. It’s equipped with everything we needed and really close to the lake. And the weather was perfect. Thank you Terri for sharing your beautiful home with us. It’s a year we won’t forget.

Great Property

We enjoyed our stay at Rocking Bar B Retreat. The house was clean upon arrival and everything was as advertised. There was plenty of space for our group of 4 adults, 2 teens, and 1 child. The property owners were pleasant to deal with and answered questions right away. The only confusion for me was that there were multiple sets of instructions (one on the fridge, another in the notebook on the desk, and the one I received via email). I went by the ones I received via email. It may be helpful for future guests if they all matched. It only things like trash pick-up and check-in times. Overall, everything was excellent. We would stay here again without hesitation.

Water view!

Very much enjoyed our stay here! Very well stocked with any kitchen item you may need. Also had extra pillows and blankets in each bedroom which was a definite plus and lots of games and movies. Took advantage of the firepit one chilly afternoon and evening. Absolutely made some wonderful memories with our family!

Great Place to Stay

This was a great property for a family birthday celebration. There was plenty of space for everyone - 4 adults and 2 littles. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels. We enjoyed time outside on the deck and made use of the fire pit. This property has one of the best equipped kitchens I've seen at a vacation rental. The owner was great - she promptly answered many questions - even when I asked the same one again!! :) I would definitely recommend this property.

Absolutely the BEST!

The Rocking B Retreat was Wonderful! The property is away from the hustle bustle of Branson but just a short drive to all the main attractions! We cooked Thanksgiving Dinner in the beautiful, spacious kitchen and had plenty of room for dining, watching TV, playing cards, sleeping and (most important) bathrooms. Terri was a dream of a hostess and the property was immaculate. We will definately book here again!

Wonderful week

This is our fourth time staying here. We absolutely love and always have a great time. The house is always in tip top condition and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook great meals. The guys went on a fishing trip with the Magic Stop guided tours and they had such a good outing. Lots of fish stories This house is in the best location. Close to the marina and town for a quick pick up for anything you may need.

Another great vacation at the lake ...

We enjoyed our stay at Rocking Bar B Retreat. The house was clean upon arrival and everything was as advertised. There was plenty of space for our group. Terri were pleasant to deal with and answered my questions right away. The grandkids were disappointed that the pin ball machine wasn't working this trip. Very quiet neighborhood and easy access to the water. Hot out on the deck and the umbrella needs to be repaired. Overall it was another great vacation at the lake!

Improvement recommendation

Property very well stocked with kitchen items. Very clean The only improvement I would recommend is that a king size bed be on the main level and the two double beds be put in the basement This would be better for older( parents) staying.

Nice Property

We stayed at the Rocking Bar B over Thanksgiving. We met my husband’s brother and his family there. The kitchen is huge and fully furnished. The two living spaces made it great for us to spread out when we wanted to but the kitchen and dining area were big enough for us to all be together, too. The view from the deck is great and is most enjoyable to sit out there and drink coffee. We look forward to coming back again in the summer time and bringing our boat.

Family vacation

Had a great time. Weather was perfect. Enjoyed our morning cup of coffee on the deck. Had hummingbirds and butterflies all around. Brought our boat and rented a boat slip at Campbell's Marina, they were very friendly and accommodating! House was perfect for all our needs and had plenty of room for 5 adults. The house was very clean and had all the amenities needed to our cook meals. Three bathrooms were great, never had to wait. The only thing was the pin ball machine wasn't working and we were all looking forward to having a pinball challenge. Lol. Very quite neighborhood and easy access to the water, would have been nice if it had a dock to tie the boat to but we managed. Went into Branson but was a little to touristy, wasn't are type of entertainment. Overall it was a great week.

One week get away at Table Rock Lake

We were very pleased with this home. The pictures online do not do it justice! Beautiful and spacious home. The kitchen is well stocked. We don't like to eat out a lot when at the lake, so it was great to have a large, open, well supplied kitchen to prepare meals. A beautiful view of the lake from the home and an easy walk to the lake. Nice quiet cove, great for swimming and relaxing in the water. Thank you, we had a wonderful time!

We love the Shell Knob area of Table Rock Lake. After spending years of family vacations there renting lodging from many of the area resorts we finally made the plunge and bought our own home in Shell Knob the fall of 2012. We hope to share our home with other Shell Knob vacationers adding to their family vacation memories! Tim & Terri Bornholdt Inman kansas
