PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE BOOKING
■ RENTAL AGREEMENT & SECURITY DEPOSIT - You will be sent a Rental Agreement. Signing and returning the rental agreement is a requirement for staying at this property. If you do not sign the rental agreement within 24 hours of booking, your booking may be canceled. This includes setting up a security deposit that will be held during your stay and refunded 48 hrs after checkout, assuming there is no damage to the property.
■ LAKE INFO- Lake Taneycomo is the coldest lake in MO and is famous for fishing trout, bass, bluegill, and more. It is not an ideal swimming lake, but the cold waters can be enjoyed in the hottest months of the year. Lake weeds do grow up in the shallow waters in front of the cabin for about 6 months of the year, so if you want to get into the water, plan to paddle the kayaks out to one of the coves across the lake. In the warmer months, a micro plant called Water Meal also begins to float on the lake's surface and gather along the shore. This green, grain-like plant does not harm your health or inhibit fishing. You are welcome to fish on the resort's shore and off the dock. The best fishing tends to be out in the lake's deeper waters.
■ HOT TUB - Absolutely NO GLASS or food near the hot tub. NO BUBBLES, NO SALTS OR OILS can be added to the hot tub. You must shower first and wear a swimsuit (not clothes) in the hot tub. The hot tub is professionally serviced after each guest. Let us know if it needs to be served during your stay.
■ PETS - Dog friendly! The number of dogs must be selected upon booking. We allow up to 2 house-trained dogs under 75 lbs. each. There is an additional fee of $150 fee per dog added to the total of your trip. Pets must be kenneled when left home alone. They must be on a leash at all times when outside of the cabin. Guests are responsible for cleaning up any waste from their pets. Guests must ensure that barking does not disturb our neighbors. Pets are never to be left alone outside. Please use the dog blankets provided if your pet will be on the couch or bed. We provide a basic kennel, a doggy bed, poop bags, and a lint roller. Excessive pet hair, damage, or smells will result in additional fees.

■ OCCUPANCY - Maximum 12 Persons. If you bring more people than accounted for on your reservation, you will be asked to leave without a refund.

■ CHECK-IN/OUT - Check-in at 4:00 PM. Check-out at 10:00 AM. We do not offer early check-ins or late check-outs.
■ CRITTERS - We have the cabin on a regular pest control schedule to help minimize the possibility of insects and critters. However, this is a lake area, and some insects are unavoidable. You can occasionally expect to see critters (bugs, ants, bats, spiders, etc.) in or around the cabin. If this is a concern for you, a place further from the water may be a better fit for you. Please help us by keeping the floors swept, keeping sweets in the fridge, and cleaning up the trash.

Amazing view of Lake, having 2 master suites was great, both with lake view. Hot tub facing lake was so relaxing. Great indoor feel too. King beds very comfy. Kitchen set to cook just about anything - even air fryer. Lovely drive to and from Branson. Be sure to go to Yummy Donuts just a very short drive from the cabin. Great stay! Thank you!

Lake Stay near Branson
Would definitely stay here again! Peaceful and quiet in the spring when we were there. We drove in to Branson and up to Springfield while staying here. The house was well equipped - the bed was SO comfortable. Good things: light blocking curtains on the bedroom windows, smart Roku TVs throughout the house, power strips, beach towels and blankets provided, washer and dryer. Roomy living/kitchen area - the pictures don't do it justice.

Beautiful View in a Quiet Resort
Our family had an amazing 8 days at this property! Everyone had a fantastic time relaxing on the large porch. We were steps from the lake (an amazing view from the porch) and enjoyed watching the geese. We took advantage of the boat docks for some fishing and took a swim in the resort pool. It was so quiet and peaceful it was hard to tell that almost every building in the resort was occupied. We also enjoyed the easy 30 min drive into Branson for shows, golf, and activities. It was nice to leave the hustle and bustle and get back to the peace and quiet at the resort and this amazing lodge. Everyone had plenty of space and we found everything just as described. We will defninitely be repeat customers.

RELAX and ENJOY
This property hit all the buttons for us on our visit to the Branson area.
Absolutely spotless when we arrived. A fully stocked (utensils) kitchen area for anything you may want to prepare. The common area was perfect for conversing with one another, playing games or watching some sports. Very comfortable accommodations in the bedrooms. We had 5 adults and 3 children age 6-9. Plenty of room
Outside was a wonderful covered porch with plenty of rockers and seating that offered a beautiful view of the lake just a few yards away. A charcoal grill for preparing your fresh trout and a hot tub that was a great way to end the day.
The location was perfect for us. Away from the bustle of Branson but close enough you can be anywhere you wanted to be within 20-30 minutes.
Our host, Chris, was very attentive and quick to respond to any questions prior to booking and throughout the stay.
5 out of 5 from this family!!
