Lakefront Home w/ Private dock & Amazing Views
It was our second stay at Colby’s place. The house is clean, modern and comfortable. The views are outstanding and the spacious dock and kayaks make for great water fun. Colby is a super host!

The Cove Retreat
Awesome place to stay with private dock. Everything was as advertised. Will definitely stay again in the future.

Waterfront Cottage & Dock w/ Beautiful View - 5MM
We had a nice stay. The lake views and sunsets were pleasant, but we didn’t realize the water would still be too cold for swimming. It would probably be a better experience later in spring or summer when the weather is warmer.

Hilltop Hideaway W/ Lake Views
Place was great and everything it said it was gonna be. Amber was great at answering any questions

Decked Out Retreat: Kayaks, Dock, Parking, & More!
This place was very well kept, clean, and organized. The host was very accommodating and helped with many suggestions and answered questions when needed. We were not far from restaurants. We would definitely stay there again!

Luxury State Park Getaway/Lake Access /Dock & Gym
The place is amazing for a getaway. The house is super neat and ornate! Everything was clean and user-friendly. The dock was easy to access, the golf cart rental was clutch! Jolene was prompt at responding. They did have the other two properties also airbnb'd at the same time, but there was good distance between each lodging. Also, the dock was big enough for all the families to share the space.

Private Cove and Lake house on the 9.5 mm
Alan’s spot was private, cozy and well kept. The location is desirable for Sunrise Beach and a great spot to take the dogs.

Relaxing Lake Front Home W/Private Dock
Relaxing and peaceful lake front retreat for our family. With the private dock and easy to rent kayaks from the owners, there was plenty of fishing, swimming and boating to do. Despite the less than perfect weather, we still had the perfect weekend.

Micheal was super kind and thoughtful and took care of anything we needed right away. It snowed quite a bit during our stay and he was out right away clearing the walkways in the freezing temps. Everything was clean and nice and we’re thankful to have stayed here.

Panoramic lakefront views at the waters edge 10mm
Janet’s place was phenomenal to stay at for the weekend. She was accommodating and very easy to work with.

Kentucky Lodge | Blue Branch | Lake of the Ozarks
Great place to relax! Hot tub was amazing with a great view! Paddle boards, a kids kayak, and 2 Lilly pads to play on in the lake. Such a great cozy get away! Also, the lounge chairs by the lake provide the best spot to watch the sunset (and eat s’mores)! We will be staying here again next year!!

Water's Edge Ozark Retreat with Private Dock
Perfect lake spot, wonderful dock! We had so much fun swimming with our dogs, absolutely magical slice of the Ozarks.

LOTO Lake house with Bunkhouse and Hot tub!
Our family really enjoyed our stay! Everything was clean, neat, and just as expected. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. Thank you for a great experience!

Lakefront Condo Mile 26 + Boat Lift + Pool + Grill
Perfect location with private deck and access to boat dock. Sometimes we sat on the patio and listened to music coming from Margaritaville across the bay. It’s an easy car or boat drive to lots of other places in Osage Beach and we enjoyed many of them. It was reasonably priced for a two bedroom condo with boat and trailer parking in this area. The owner was very helpful and responsive.

Lakeside Cabin
A phenomenal location for a relaxing break and Jake was on hand for swift responses to messages. I highly recommend this beautiful cabin!

Masterpiece on Mitchell!, 3bed 2bath luxury stay

BreathTaking View/Sits on the Water/Fish From Dock
We stayed one night. The condo was as described. Very nice layout of space. Very clean and taken care of. Enjoyed a quiet evening on the deck sipping on some adult beverages that were supplied by our host. The bed was very comfy and had a great night of rest. The late check out was a nice touch. We will definitely stay here here again when in the area.

Little Black Dress
Great place for a getaway! Everything was clean and exactly as described! My husband and I enjoyed kayaking during the day and hot tubbing in the evening! Felt private but still close enough to some great restaurants!

Your guide to Lake of the Ozarks
All About Lake of the Ozarks
One of the Midwest’s most popular destinations for high-energy outdoor activities and low-key rest and relaxation, the snake-shaped Lake of the Ozarks winds through Missouri’s northern Ozark Mountains. Thanks to the lake’s unique shape, there are more than 1,100 miles of shoreline to enjoy, making it easy to find your own little slice of paradise.
Bagnell Dam — which is responsible for the reservoir that forms the lake — is the largest landmark in the area, and you’ll find arcades, ice cream shops, souvenir stalls, and more along the hopping Bagnell Dam Strip. The largest city in the area is Osage Beach, which is filled with boats anchored at lakeside bars, restaurants, and shopping outlets. Big-name musicians are regularly booked at the Ozarks Amphitheater, and popular plays, musicals, and dance troupes can be found at The Royal Theater. On the quieter side of the lake, known as the Niangua arm, you’ll find Bridal Cave, Ha Ha Tonka State Park, and more family-oriented restaurants and activities.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake of the Ozarks
The weather is warm enough for beach lounging in spring and hot enough for swimming, boating, and water sports during the summer, but although these are some of the most popular times to visit, expect plenty of humidity and rain during these seasons as well. Fall brings cooler temperatures and fewer opportunities for lake activities, but it also welcomes a new season of excitement thanks to the annual Fall Festival and the Versailles Apple Festival, which are both held in early October and offer live music, vendors, and events around the area. Winters are cold with occasional snowfalls, but dedicated fishing enthusiasts can catch plenty of bass, and those brave enough to face the icy waters can participate in the annual Polar Plunge held in late February.
Top things to do in Lake of the Ozarks
Lake of the Ozarks State Park
Missouri’s largest state park was designed to help visitors maximize their opportunities for outdoor adventure on and around the lake with paved boat ramps, boat rentals, two public beaches for swimming, 13 trails for hiking and horseback riding, and picnic areas. Don’t miss the chance to explore the Ozark Caverns, where you can see multiple species of salamanders and bats, either on your own or with a park guide.
Osage Beach
The center of commerce and entertainment in the Lake of the Ozarks, this small city on the eastern bank exudes energy, especially during the summer months. Most bars and restaurants have nautical themes, live music or DJs, dance floors, and many even have their own pools. Osage Beach is also the best place to book parasailing excursions or to rent boats, paddleboards, and other watercraft.
Ha Ha Tonka State Park
About five miles from Camdentown lies a truly unique state park that provides visitors with a taste of a European vacation in the heart of Missouri: The towering ruins of a stone castle from 1905 serve as the focal point for this 3,700-acre protected park. Situated along the lake’s no-wake zone, this quiet wooded area has 14 hiking trails, natural bridges, a spring, small caves, picnic areas, and lake access.
