Incredible

Jack and Abby have created a wonderful sanctuary at Pretty Lake. The cabin is perfect. The recording studio gave us the perfect place to read and listen to music on a rainy day. We thoroughly enjoyed paddling around the lake on paddle boards and feeding the fish off the dock. We’ll certainly be back!

Anniversary Weekend Getaway

The cabin was just what we were expecting for our short weekend getaway. We were able to relax out on the dock and take in the water and wildlife around us. We enjoyed the hot tub and watching a movie on the nice projector TV. In the morning, as we had our coffee we would see the wild turkey, young deer, and the resident goose couple tending to her eggs:) There are some short trails on the property and I did some fishing. Also they gifted us a nice bottle of wine for our Anniversary which was very sweet and thoughtful. It was nice to have Columbia close by to run into town for a dinner and pick up a couple of things. I look forward to making it back in the future.

Graduation stay

Loved the property and was very comfortable. Be sure and bring food! Miscommunication about the fee. They said they had never had that before. I guess I didn’t read the fine print. Just a really relaxing and very clean place to stay.

Family weekend at Pretty Lake

We had a wonderful stay at Pretty Lake. It was the perfect spot while we enjoyed Family Weekend at Mizzou. It is a beautiful location, and we loved coming back to kayak and paddle board.
