Amazing location for a family getaway!

We had four generations of family meet in Cuba for a Missouri staycation. It was perfection! The house was amazing and accommodated everyone. The lake was fun for the little one to walk around and see the fish. And, the pool was great! We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again!

Perfect family spot

The house was perfect for 2 families needing a place to stay from out of state. It had plenty of amenities for a warm and comfortable stay and would only be even better in the summer w/ the lake and in-ground swimming pool. The owner was super communicative and responsive.

I can’t say enough about this property and the memories that were made. From a high school graduation, cousins bonding, fishing with great grandpa and so many other memories I can’t say enough. The house and property are beautiful and are exactly as described. The host was responsive and accommodating and there are instructions throughout the house that make it easy to navigate. We would certainly stay here again!

This private lake house was just what we were looking for... a get away from the hustle and bustle with everything we needed right there. Our host, Richard, was very helpful. We came with 3 families, had more than enough room and enjoyed the private pool and beautiful lake. We also enjoyed walks around the property and easy access to a Walmart nearby.

Peaceful and Beautiful

The pictures of the property and house are accurate. It is well cared for and offers comfortable sleeping and relaxing. The kitchens are easy to work in and well stocked with supplies for guest use. The deck is amazing, comfortable seating and beautiful view. Pool is a great hangout spot. The pool house bathroom is so handy. Lake is clear enough to see the smaller fish at the banks and out by the dock we got to see some huge catfish! Close enough to town for quick runs when needed. The hosts are easy to get a hold of and their check in/out process was the easiest I've experience so far.

Lake House Paradise for the Holidays

This lake house property is truly a piece of paradise. We enjoyed every inch of this property from the lake, ponds, hiking trails, outdoor fire pits, spacious patios, and much much more. The house was clean, well organized, and had all the amenities that one would ever need. Rich was a gracious host and was very responsive and easy to work with. We hope to come back in the summer to take advantage of that gorgeous pool! Thanks again for making our Christmas experience one that we will never forget.

Perfect Getaway

We rented Rich’s place for our annual guys weekend and couldn’t have been happier. The house is exactly as advertised and there was plenty of room for the seven of us. The property is secluded but close to town and shopping. The grounds were very well maintained and the deck, patio, pool and lake would be awesome in the summer. It’s the perfect place for entertaining with family or friends. The communication with Rich was excellent and we had no problems during our stay. Would highly recommend it.

Rich and Donna, the entire family had a great time at your wonderful lake house! There was plenty of space for our family. The grandkids very much enjoyed fishing in the lake and caught plenty of fish to catch and release. Everyone young and hold had plenty to do and space to enjoy. Onondaga cave was terrific.

Perfectly located off the highway a few miles in a valley sits this amazing huge 4 bedroom oasis with a gorgeous lake, outstanding pool and lounging area. As well as a delightful patio with breathtaking views of the lake and sunsets. absolutely perfect for 8 of us to spend quality time together for a little summer getaway. Didnt even use the huge finished basement. The house is huge! Richard the owner was wonderful to deal with and we cant wait to stay again.

The best, hands down.

This place checks all the boxes. It’s beautiful, inside and out with plenty to do on site, from the pool, hot tub, lakes and trails. Host is nice and easy to get in touch with. Checking in and out was easy. We had lots of fun catching (and releasing) several kinds of fish, swimming in the large pool, hanging out on the huge and peaceful deck (with some type of metal ring and hook game that I could not master haha, it was fun to try though). One thing that was just so nice and really surprised me, was the bird houses, my daughter and I very much enjoyed watching and listening to the birds in the morning, over coffee and OJ. I’ve stayed at a lot of rentals, and this one is easily the best, most perfect fit for our family. We loved our stay here and can’t wait to come back.

Relaxing getaway

We wanted a private location with a pool and beautiful scenery. This little paradise was perfect. Rich is quick to respond to any questions and a gracious host. We enjoyed sitting by the lake and on the amazing deck. The pool area has all the amenities you’d need including a covered area with fan. The house was clean. The beds were comfy and the showers had good pressure. The grill was nice and a grocery store nearby. Also several places to choose from to pick up dinner or eat out. The grounds are well maintained. We miss the view already. Listening & watching the fountain was so relaxing. The lake water is beautiful. It would be a perfect place for a friends gathering with the lower level bar area and kitchen. The hot tub and two fire pits would be so much fun in the fall. Highly recommend for a relaxing staycation!!!!

Perfect kick-off to Summer

This house had everything we could’ve wanted or needed. It was more than big enough for our 5 adults & 2 children, and kept everyone entertained with fishing, swimming, Sonos, games/puzzles and plenty of yard space for running around (or playing several of the yard games we found in the basement). The kitchen had several sets of dishes, some spices, a lot of various utensils, and even some appliances (crockpot, coffee pot, & air fryer). The beds were super comfortable, and the zoned HVAC system kept us all happy. Even though it rained, we spent an entire evening on the covered porch around the gas firepit roasting s’mores, catching up, & playing the ring game. The pool was great (the poolside bathroom is a definite perk for kids), as was the hot tub. We loved having a fire down by the lake – where we spent a lot of time, reeling in a lot of fish! There are TVs in all the bedrooms which was great for downtime/bedtime. The host was very responsive and takes great care of his home. We hope to return again next year!
