Exceptional family escape - Lakefront on a flat lot in a spring fed no wake cove

If you are looking for the ultimate family escape with the amenities of home but equipped with a lake and dock twenty steps from the house, this is the spot for you. We are located on the Gravois Arm in a quiet, no wake, spring fed cove that provides the perfect swimming and fishing hole. Equipped with playground equipment, water toys, kayaks, etc., and an indoor open garage space with ping pong, darts, seating area, and workout equipment there is always something to keep everyone entertained.
In the evenings, relax and enjoy yourself on the large deck while grilling your favorite meals. After the sun starts to set enjoy a nice fire right off the deck, perfect for creating S'mores or just relaxing and enjoying the evening.
