Description Description
As you head out away from the home to explore the greater Lake Ozark area, take the short drive or boat ride to stop in for a meal at Tap & Grill Lakeside Brew Haus, the lake’s first and only lakefront micro brew pub, or discover all the shopping options at the Millstone Marina. Head out by boat to the Bagnell Dam to snap some photos at the scenic overlook, stopping in for lunch and shopping on the strip located along the shoreline. A scenic cruise along the winding waterway in just about any direction will take you additional delicious dining options, including H. Toads and Franky & Louie’s, just to name a couple.

Indoors, soaring vaulted ceilings sit atop open spaces designed to maximize your downtime while keeping those preferential lake views front and center at all times. Sink into plush sofa seating in the living room while you stream all your favorite entertainment on the smart TV, the views keeping the ambiance relaxing all season long. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to whip up all your favorite homecooked meals, with stainless steel appliances and plentiful countertop space and cabinetry for preparation and storage. Gather around the table to dine on your fare, afterward clearing the dishes to host a fun-filled family game night for the ages.

The house was great with plenty of space for my group of 7 that came up for a track weekend at Ozarks International Raceway. It was a perfect location in a quiet neighborhood, only 20 minutes from the track and 10 minutes from town to grab food and other things. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook and we appreciated having the grill. The back porch and dock provided an amazing spot to have a morning coffee and watch the sunrise over the lake and unwind in the evening after a long day at the track. The host was very thorough with information provided and quick to respond. We also really appreciated the overflow parking at the front of the neighborhood, only a 5 minute walk from the house, to park our trucks/trailers which saved us a ton of time not having to leave everything at the track to go back and grab in the morning.

Thank you, Ajay, for such a detailed and wonderful review! We’re so glad the home was a great fit for your group of 7 and that you found the location convenient for your track weekend at Ozarks International Raceway. It’s wonderful to hear that the quiet neighborhood, nearby town, well-equipped kitchen, and grill made your stay comfortable and convenient. We especially love hearing that you enjoyed your mornings on the back porch and dock watching the sunrise over the lake and relaxing after a long day at the track. We’re also happy that the overflow parking was helpful for your trucks and trailers and saved you the extra hassle of going back to the track each morning. Thank you for your kind words about our communication and the information we provide. We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to welcome you and your group back for another great trip to the Lake of the Ozarks!

No trash can, dirty dishes and silverware, dock furniture had not been touched in weeks it seemed. Zero floats or lily pad so bring your own stuff. Cove is quiet and calm but the house was very underwhelming. The management company does not seem to know the house well.

Enjoyed our stay for a quiet relaxing bachelorette weekend. House was as described, and mostly clean upon arrival. We did ask for an early check in ahead of booking and they were not able to accommodate that. We also had some issues with the lock at check in, but were able to call the number provided and get assistance right away.

Overall we had a great time. Plenty of sleeping room. My biggest complaint was the kitchen items like pots and pans have a lot of wear and tear and not seeming very clean but wasn’t a huge problem.

We loved being so close to the water and the sun coming up over the lake was spectacular. Our whole group spent a lot of time between the patio and the dock. The deer came into the back yards and were very close so we got a good look at them. We definitely would visit again

We enjoyed our stay at this location. It was clean and welcoming. My only complaint is guests don’t have access to the fireplace which wasn’t clear to me before I booked or I may not have booked here. Having a fireplace was one of my big criteria I was looking for in a place. It was in the pictures and it wasn’t til we were there the first night that we were told guests don’t have access to it. We were celebrating 35 years of marriage and a romantic fire would have been nice. That being said, there was a fire out outside, which was nice.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us for such a special occasion — congratulations again on 35 years of marriage! We truly appreciate your kind words about the cleanliness and welcoming feel of the place. I’m very sorry for the misunderstanding regarding the fireplace. We do note in the listing description that the indoor fireplace is not available for guest use, but I understand how that could have been missed, especially when browsing photos. I appreciate you bringing this up, and we’ll look at how we can make that detail even clearer for future guests. We’re glad you were still able to enjoy the outdoor fire feature, and we truly hope the rest of your anniversary getaway was memorable and special. We’d love to host you again anytime!

The best part is the walk to the dock. It truly is a very gentle slope with no steps. It’s right out the back door. There was plenty of room for 11 of us(5 preteen/teens and 6 adults). My parents stayed on the bottom floor in the master bedroom and everyone used the shower or bath in that room at some point. It is HUGE! Everything we needed was provided. We always travel to LOTO with a boat so it was great there was trailer parking nearby at no cost. It is a few minutes drive to the closest boat ramp though. A second king bed upstairs was accommodating. One full bath upstairs and a half bath downstairs so we didn’t have to run up and down stairs all day. The grill worked great. Easy check in and out instructions and very responsive host to texts. We also had 2 bass boats and were able to tie off at the dock with ease. This house is nice and we would stay here again.

Thank you so much for your detailed and kind review! We're so glad the property worked well for your group and that you enjoyed the easy access to the dock, the spacious layout, and the responsive communication. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the early check-in charge. The reason we charge an additional fee is that our cleaners incur extra costs if their cleaning schedule is disrupted, which is why we have to implement that fee for early arrivals. We hope you understand, and we’re glad it all worked out in the end! We’d love to have you stay again. Thanks again for choosing our property!
