Great Weekend with Family!!!

Easy/seamless check in, check out, WiFi connection, zero issues! Kids loved the pinball and video games, and everyone loved all the space and the tvs in the bedrooms. Kitchen had everything we needed, better than most rentals. Location was super - 1-minute walk to the pool, quick drive to everything we wanted to do in Branson. Bedrooms in the front of the home could hear pool/rec area noise, the trade off for being so close to the center of the subdivision. Basement and rear-facing bedrooms were completely fine. Would stay again!

Amazing stay!!!

Our 2 families had such a wonderful time at Star Gaze, we didn't want to leave!! The house had everything we needed and more. The lake view was awesome too. And you can't beat the location for SDC and other Branson activities! Added bonus was the proximity to the pool, bball court, pickle ball etc - only a few steps away! We did wish the back yards were better separated by fencing or something, but that's only because we had loud obnoxious neighbors one night. Other than that, everything was absolutely perfect and we can't wait to go back! Thanks to the owners for having it so well stocked with awesome games for everyone as well.

Beautifully furnished and clean home conveniently located near SDC and the Showboat Branson Belle

My family had a wonderful stay at Star Gaze. The home has a beautiful view of the lake, it is beautifully furnished and clean, and my kids loved the pinball machine and the Pacman/game machine. Even I got reacquainted with Pacman and played for an hour or two! My son and I played a fun game of Pickleball on the resort court and would have loved a game of Horse on the basketball court if we had had the time. Also, there is an indoor and outdoor swimming pool at the resort; all these amenities are conveniently located across the street from Star Gaze. The home is quiet and peaceful, and we will rent the place again if available.

needs a little work

Great location across from amenities! Hot tub would not adjust down in temp and stayed at 107 which is not good during summer months. Ice maker was not working properly and was reported but no follow up by manager. No grill brush to clean the grill. Property is a bit smaller than the pictures cause you to perceive it to be.

Beautiful view, 3 floors of privacy.

This property was lovely. We enjoyed coffee out on the deck and had a spectacular view. They had some throw blankets on the couches so in the cool nights we enjoyed the seating outside with the blankets and that was awesome to have. There was enough seating for everyone because of the chairs at the kitchen island and the dining room table. I will say that the water pressure is not very good but the water heater works well. It was very easy to get to and it’s right across from a pool and playground. Management was also super helpful. The icemaker beside the fridge was cool but we couldn’t figure out how to make it make ice continuously… The floors were clean of debris but still dirty as if they have not been mopped so our little ones were not able to crawl on the floor. We totally enjoyed our stay overall.

The stay was overall very nice. The house was excellent and the view of Table Rock was fabulous. The only issue we had was with the internet service. We were not in the house that often but when there we had We ended up using our own hot spot to be able to watch TV. Regardless we would certainly rent again.
