As you enter our main floor, you will find our open living room, dining room and kitchen area. We have supplied everything you need to cook those perfect meals together as a family. Take a look at the lake directly behind the house as you cook in the kitchen. If you are bringing lots of groceries, we have 2 more refrigerators- a second in the garage, and a third one downstairs in the wet bar area!!

Our main floor also offers a king bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and king bedroom and bathroom. No stairs required to access these bedrooms.

Retreat to the basement for a second living space, queen bedroom, double queen bedroom, and bathroom.

Our second living room is the perfect place to hang out, watch movies, and play a game of pool. You will love the newly added 75 inch TV to watch your favorite games. The wet bar area makes as a perfect gathering space!! If you would like more games, we have converted our garage into our game room with pingpong and foosball. Also enjoy the TV in the garage area if you would like to bring a game console for the kids. If you are looking for more sleeping areas, we have supplied 3 roll away beds and a pull out chair bed for extra sleeping.

All or our bedrooms and living rooms on both levels have sliding glass doors with access to the deck or lower level to enjoy a gorgeous lake front view of Table Rock Lake.

Great woodsy/lake alcove for canoeing & fishing!

We met our immediate/extended family (nine total) here in Branson to checkout it’s many family friendly shows & chose Carefree Bear Lodge for our accommodations because of all the amenities it had to offer! It checked off all my boxes. A lovely homey space that provided my son, his wife and four children the entire basement for a more private space for them, our daughter & our bedrooms upstairs both having separate bathrooms ( so important when everyone getting ready to take off for day of taking in the sights and sounds of the area). Yet we were all able to enjoy a morning breakfast together and hungout watching a movie a few nights too in the open kitchen living area. Kids and adults enjoyed all the lake activities (canoeing, kayaking, fishing,etc) as well the pooltable in basement was a hit. Cornhole on back deck played daily & pingpong challenges in garage! Great place to stay! It is a bit of a descent down to lake but there is also a nice patio area with fire pit which we did not use due to the 90 degree temps the week of our stay. Loved that the central A/C worked well! We would definitely recommend. Only 15 min drive from the busier streets of Branson, but we found Kimberling city and Indian Point too, offer great places to eat at a more leisurely pace.

Private with lots of recreational activities.

This house was so nice as it was private and not a chain of cabins. There was so much for young adults to do. We cooked all our meals with plenty of kitchen necessities available. Lots of sleeping space and access to the lake was amazing! Would definitely stay again.

Great house - cleanliness concerns

The house itself, set-up, and location is great but there was a strong feces smell from what I am guessing was a dog accident in the main bedroom. We tried to sleep in the room the first night and as the house warmed up the smell was unbearable. I did talk to the owners and they said they would try to get a cleaning company out but nothing was done while we were there. We ended up having kids share a room so we didn’t have to use the room. We had to cut the trip short due to a family emergency so they may have planned to show up the day after we left to address the issue. I did ask them to compensate something as it seemed odd to have to pay full price and full cleaning fees when the main bedroom can’t be used - they declined which was disappointing but I get. So overall, not the best experience.

Thanksgiving Family Get Away

We had a great time. Loved the hot tub for this time of year. Kayak was taken down to the lake for a short paddle. Plenty of parking a huge plus as we had three vehicles. Property had plenty of space to explore. Was a quick 20 min to Silver Dollar City, and 30 min from the strip.

Great Stay! Hope to return soon!

We stayed at this property September 2024 with our 2 adult sons and granddaughter. The house was perfectly set up for us to spend time together in multiple areas of the house and to retreat to separate areas at the end of the day. We mostly used the outdoor amenities, fire pit, deck and lake on this trip. We hope to return to this property in April 2025. The weather is likely to be much cooler so we anticipate using the indoor amenities more. The house was very well stocked. We had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend this property!

quiet but FUN family weekend

We were looking for a quick weekend away after a busy few months, and this lake house did not disappoint. The home is in a quiet cove on lake, great for fishing and kayaking, and not too close to other neighbors despite being in a popular area. Our visit was during a cold spell, but we still had plenty of things to do at the property between the hot tub, ping pong and pool tables, and other games. The home and kitchen were well appointed, which made family meals a pleasure. Despite the remote feel of the house, we were also able to easily enjoy local attractions such as Silver Dollar City and the Butterfly Ranch. This really was the perfect house for a family vacation where some days required relaxing and other days needed a bit more adventure.

Family Time Together

Our family of 6 - Dad Mom and 4 kids aged 23 to 19 had a fantastic time at this house. We stayed the 2nd week of March so weather was a teeter totter but with so many things to do indoors we didn't mind the chilly days. Kids loved the hot tub which was clean and fully functional. The drive to the grocery store was easy - but make a list - as it's a bit too far to realize you forgot something. Drive to Branson was about 30 mins. We went over 3 times. For nearby dining we ate at Ma's Place in Kimberling City and it was super yummy food - atmosphere was basic. I recommend bringing beach towels as the bath towels are not good for hot tub or lake action. Communication with the owner was easy and helpful. Book it now - you will be happy you did!
