Near Current River in SE Missouri. Secluded, private getaway with a fishing pond, bonfire pit, walking trails, 7 bedrooms, 3 baths, chef’s kitchen, and covered patio. 1 bedroom and bathroom is handicap accessible. Perfect for family vacations/reunions, girls/guys weekends, float trip lodging, holiday getaways, etc. The lodge sleeps 14 in beds. There are 4 rooms with queen beds, and 3 rooms with two twins each (6) for a total of 10 beds. Up to 6 extra guests beyond 14 are welcome to sleep on air mattress (bring your own) or in recliners, but there is a $30 one-time fee per person for extra guests. Air mattresses must not be in rooms due to fire hazard/limited space. We provide 2 towels and 2 washcloths per guest. If you’re looking for a place to relax and enjoy the peacefulness of the countryside, our property is ideal. If you’re looking for a place to party, we are not ideal, as we live on-site and outside music must end at 10 pm. Our home is connected by an exterior courtyard wall and sidewalk to the lodge. The pool, hot tub, and fireplace within the fenced backyard between our home and lodge is for our private use only. (We've been getting many questions about it due to past reviews-we no longer rent it due to the addition of a hot tub, outdoor gym equipment, and a current machine in the pool that we use frequently. The one picture showing it through a bedroom window is just to show the twin bedrooms' view, same as there's a photo showing a field that the queen rooms overlook.) The lodge is suitable for events, and there is a $10/person day fee for every guest on the property beyond the 14 included in the rental price. Please do not abuse this or the extra guest overnight fee by not paying for the extra guests. We live next door, and only allow groups over 14 guests/events with extra payment. If abused, you will be asked to leave promptly. We also have a very basic bunkhouse near our wedding barn 1/4 mile away from the lodge if you require extra lodging. It has 6 bunk beds, a sitting area, and full bathroom should you need additional lodging. We take payment for this in person at $115/night to rent this space. 2-night minimum. The kitchen has all expected appliances, cooking, and dining utensils. There's a Kuerig and a regular coffee maker. Please bring your own coffee. Filters are provided for the large coffee pot.

Please bring your own toiletries (shampoo,conditioner, toothpaste, etc.) All bedrooms are identical. 6 bedrooms are located upstairs with 2 large bathrooms in the center. The 3 rooms with 2 twins overlook the pool/courtyard. The 3 rooms with a queen overlook the field south of the lodge. The other queen room is on the main level next to the third bathroom. It is slightly larger than the others, but it doesn’t have a window. The rooms are not spacious, so if you have small children, the smaller the portable crib/pack and play, the better.There’s a ping pong table, board games, corn hole set, and books for your entertainment, along with DirectTv and free wifi. (We have Starlink, which is good, but there are unannounced down times when there is no internet.) Firewood is provided for bonfire pit by the pond.

She isn't very energetic and doesn't jump, but she is likely to lay near the action or lean on you if you are outside. We also have a cat named Sweetie that spends time inside and out (of our house-she’s never inside the lodge). She is very social and tolerant for a cat, and also good with all ages. At any time, there may also be a new puppy or foster dog. We will only have friendly pets here. However, please do not book with us if you are uncomfortable with outside pets. We don't allow other pets on the property for various reasons. Washer and dryer facilities can be rented for $10/day—bring your own detergent.
