Great place! Our 3rd time staying!
Once again our family had a great time staying here. This was our 3rd year staying and plan on coming back again in the future. The house has many great amenities, located on a quiet cove, and great communication with the owner. Highly recommend.

Family vacation 2023
The house was amazing. The host was great! Our kids really enjoyed the lake and the things they offered like a paddle boat and some kayaks. We did rent a boat and explored the huge lake one day but overall they wanted to be at the house.

Relaxing cabin!
This was the perfect cabin for a nice, relaxing stay! The house was clean, cove was super quiet despite being right on the water, and the views from the deck were amazing. Fishing from the dock was relaxing and the kids each caught their first (and second, and third) fish ever! Steve is super friendly and considerate of the guests, but also fits right in if you invite him to hang out. ☺️ Loved the place and the stay!!

Perfect Spot
It was a perfect spot for us to be on the lake close to several hot spots with a short boat ride. We were able to spread out and have a lot of fun with our group.

Great place for kids!
We took our summer vacation here for the first time at the Lake of the Ozarks. This cabin was perfect for us! All of us loved the water toys the cabin provided and swimming by the dock. We have two littles that are almost 4 and 6 years old. I was a little anxious about the depth of the water near the dock, but as long as they had their life jackets on, they were perfectly fine! The host is very friendly and was great with answering any questions. Their cabin was very well stocked too, didn't need to bring half of things I packed! Such as meat thermometer, tin foil, batteries, even a large stock pot for our annual vacation crab boil! The kids loved the porch area with their own space of a little TV, DVDs and bunkbeds! The host also painted many rocks for the kids to find and was able to keep one! They loved being able to do that! We also visited a nearby cave, winery and Landshark Bar and grill. All was about 30+ minutes, but we still enjoyed our cabin and location enough to be okay with the longer drive to the activities! We hope to be back soon someday!
