Knot for Reel is a charming play on words, and the perfect name for this idyllic lake cabin in one of Branson's most convenient locations. Every detail of this property, both inside and out, has been thoughtfully considered.
The cabin is spacious, impeccably clean, and exceptionally well-stocked. The kitchen is equipped with everything needed to prepare full meals for large groups, including plenty of plates, silverware, small appliances, and even a variety of spices and paper products. The propane grill was spotless (something I've never seen at a rental before) and there was even an extra propane tank available!
Each bedroom is generously sized with ample closet and drawer space. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and plenty of extra linens were provided. Even the kids' bunk beds were roomy and outfitted with high-quality mattresses. While this is technically a lake cabin, it truly feels more like a luxury retreat. There are books, games, and TVs in every bedroom, though we never turned them on because there was just so much else to do!
Just steps outside the cabin, you'll find pickleball courts, a large fire pit, a treehouse with swings, sand volleyball, and a resort-style pool. The facilities are beautifully maintained; we even noticed the sand was raked each morning, and stacks of split firewood were neatly arranged along the fence for guest use at the fire pits. Nothing felt overcrowded, and the entire property had a peaceful, respectful atmosphere.
Just a short walk from the cabin is the dock, which quickly became one of our favorite spots. It's stocked with plenty of kayaks and paddleboards for all ages and skill levels, and the lily pad attached to the dock was a huge hit with the kids (and adults!).
Knot for Reel was the perfect vacation spot and accommodated my family beautifully. There's something for everyone here, and we can't wait to return and make even more unforgettable memories.
