Two 3 Bedroom Homes in the Heart of the Lake Area

New to our program for the 2017 season, The Fishing Lodge and The Hunting Lodge offer great Lake of the Ozark accommodations for your family and friends. Together, the homes sleep a total of 20 guests! The lodges are located in the heart of the Lake area, near Tan-Tar-A by land and in the same cove as Red Head Yacht Club by water. Keep reading to learn more about these two spectacular vacation rentals at the Lake of the Ozarks.

The Fishing Lodge 


This beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath home comes complete with everything that you need to enjoy a great Lake of the Ozarks vacation. Granite counter tops, hardwood floors and fishing lodge decor are found throughout the home. The main level features a deck with plenty of seating and a view of the lake. The living area, complete w/ a 55 inch flat screen TV, is adjacent to the dining area, which seats 6 at the table and 3 at the breakfast bar, and open to the kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances. Just off the kitchen, you will find the laundry room, complete with a full-sized washer and dryer, full bath with a walk-in shower and two bedrooms, one with two twin beds and the other with a queen bed. The master bedroom is located in the loft, and features a king bed and full bath also with a walk-in shower (there are no tubs in the home). It is just a short walk to the 35 foot uncovered courtesy pier. You can tie your boat up to the pier and in a complete no-wake protected cove. You can also swim and float in the cove right in front of the lodge. 

The Hunting Lodge 


The Hunting Lodge is very similar to the fishing lodge, with the exception of the decor theme: hunting instead of fishing. In this home, you will also find granite counter tops and hardwood floors throughout. From the deck offering plenty of seating and a lake view to the living and dining areas, this home mirrors the other lodge on property. The laundry room also features a full-sized washer and dryer and the bedrooms offer the same bed setup as The Fishing Lodge. Both bathrooms feature walk-in showers; there are no tubs in this home either.
