Spectacular Log Home...12 Acres on Private Cove, Lakefront

Enjoy your vacation getaway while staying in a spectacular log home on 12 acres in Mark Twain National Forest nestled on a private cove located on the 'Quiet side of the Lake'. The 3 story log house has plenty of room to relax and everything you need to make your vacation perfect. Pine logs, milled and kiln-dried in North Carolina, along with notty pine wood, doors and maple hard wood flooring give the home a very rustic and warm feel. Cedar trees that were cut down on the property provide both a functional and unique accent to the home.

Once you enter you will be delighted at the spacious and open floor plan. The lake and tall hardwood trees can be seen through the large windows and sliding glass doors on the back 2 story wall of the family room.

Relax with a drink on the large, covered porch while watching and listening to the birds and wildlife without leaving your chair. You will feel like you are sitting in a tree house with nature and trees all around you.

Cook your favorite meal in a custom designed kitchen while still staying connected with your guests. The kitchen is fully equiped with everything you need to make your favorite meal. Black walnut cabinets, granite counter tops, a farmhouse sink and new stainless steel appliances makes the job easy and enjoyable. A long kitchen table made from old barn wood, the kitchen island and bar will seat up to 12 people for an evening meal.

Soak the day away in a large claw foot tub in the Master Bath. The large Master Bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed for a good night sleep. When you wake up, open the sliding glass doors to join your guests on the back porch for a morning coffee.

A spacious office just off the foyer provides a private get away for reading or using your laptop. Internet access is provided for your convenience. If you need an additional room for sleeping, you can use the queen size bed.

As you go up the stairs to the second floor, you will find a loft and two bedrooms. Each bedroom has its own full size bath, a king or queen size bed and 2 XL twin beds. In addition, you have your own HVAC unit and thermostat for your own personal comfort.

The basement is finished with a pool table, basketball game, TV, couch and tables for playing games. It also has a bar area with sink, microwave, small refrigerator and full bath with shower for your convenience.

There are several trails on the property to go on a nature hike through the woods. The backyard has a gradual slope to the lake and a fire pit for family gatherings and comfort on cooler evenings.

If you need to run into town for supplies, groceries or get something to eat, it is just a short 15 minute drive. If you are looking for a day trip, Branson, Silver Dollar City and Eureka Springs, AR are only 1 hour away.

No Pets and No Smoking....Please.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. We were awed when we walked through the front door by the beauty of the log cabin - the pictures do not do it justice! We spent most of our time (even when it was raining) on the huge covered back deck. The private setting with all the trees and sounds on the lake made for a relaxing time. Our boys loved using the pool table and Pop-a-Shot downstairs in the finished basement. I can see why many families return year after year.

Excellent property

I’ve been familiar with this property because my friends and I rent it every year for our fishing trip. A few years ago I decided to start celebrating Thanksgiving with the family at the same place because it’s quiet, spacious and perfect for a large family. We spend most of our time out by the fire pit or inside cooking, telling stories and laughing. I’ve stayed in several rental properties and this one is by far my favorite.

Great secluded property with access to lake

Great home with plenty of space. Beds were comfortable and 4 full baths is a huge bonus. Location is secluded for privacy but still within an hour drive to Branson. Access to dock is a bit steep but worked great for us. Highly recommend Dennis and his property to anyone looking for a home with plenty of space in a beautiful location.

Great place to visit.

This was a great house. The view of the lake was wonderful. The house was fully stocked with everything that we needed. We made trips to both Branson and Eureka Springs. It would be a wonderful place to stay during the summer, but we also enjoyed the peace and quiet of late winter. The snow made the area beautiful.

Dennis, Thanks for letting us share your great house. We have 4 families that meet every year at Tablerock and we are definitely thinking about return trip to this place. The house is spacious, lots of beds, close to the lake. We were all thoroughly pleased.

This cabin is AMAZING!!!!! One suggestion to folks is: go prepared to live remotely. The nearest grocery store (Walmart) is close to 45-60 minutes away (Aurora, Mo). I am planning to make this a yearly trip!!!!

Sibling vaca

We enjoyed a week long getaway with my husband's siblings and spouses. This was a first time event for us as senior adults. Shared many hours reliving memories on the wonderful back deck and cooking meals together in the spacious kitchen. Visited Branson and Eureka Springs for day trips. Overall wonderful experience.

Excellent get away

First off Dennis is a wonderful host , very easy to communicate to . The cabin is breathtaking. We never left the cabin. The kitchen is a dream to cook in. I personally loved the claw foot tub, and my kids loved the stuff animal bear that over looks the living room. My other half enjoyed himself fishing and walking the property.

Summer Vacation 2022

Our family had a great time. The cabin was well stocked with all kitchen needs for cooking and was roomy and comfortable. We enjoyed swimming in the lake and watching the deer from our balcony in the mornings. I would recommend that you purchase your groceries in Cassville or Branson on your way in. The grocery store in Shell Knob is OK for small purchases but much more expensive.

Beautiful piece of property

This is a gorgeous house and very well maintained. The only draw back for us was the steep hill required to get to and from the house down to the cove. We traveled with our elderly parents and unfortunately due to the steep incline they were not able to go down to the water. Our father tried it once and was very worn out an out of breath by the time we got back to the house. A suggestion would be to add steps to make it easier to get up and down. While the property was awesome we were not able to see much of the cove at all due to the amount of trees between the house and the water so it didn't really feel like we were at the lake. Another suggestion would be to thin out those trees so you can actually see the lake and enjoy that view while you are there.

Great Property for a Family Meet-up

My family of 10 (8 adults, 2 kids) met at this property for a week-long vacation. We loved that each family unit had enough space in the bedrooms and our own private bathrooms. The property can be a little tricky to find but easy enough if you follow the directions provided by the host. Once you arrive at the property you will not be disappointed. The house is amazing and the property is quietly surrounded by nature. We loved sitting out of the back porch with view of the lake and many critters (doe and fawn, many birds, butterflies and squirrels). We did encounter a snake one afternoon in front of the house and my young son was delighted to see some sort of lizard. The swimming dock was a little challenging to access but the host was very quick with responses to my questions. We ended up putting on some water shoes and just letting my two kids play in the shallow water at the bottom of the hill from the property. If you're looking for a house in the Shell Knob area, I highly recommend this one.

Awesome Getaway

I had my oldest son and grandsons with me for a boys only getaway. Glad the property owner gave us directions on paper because the GPS had us go a different way and we were going to be lost at 10pm. Be sure to not miss the blue trash containers since that is your reference point. Boys loved jumping/swimming off the boat dock. Temperatures were in the high 90's at night which allowed the boys to have entertainment downstairs with pool table and other games. Awesome getaway if your looking for a place that is definitely out in the woods, plenty of hiking around the property, grilling and having a crawfish boil outside, and if it was cool enough you could even have a fire by the fire pit. Plenty of pots and pans along with dishes. Felt like being at home. Thank you. Property owner answered my texts right away with questions I had about the property. He was great to work with.

This is year 3 in this incredible cabin (Year 34 renting on the lake). Wow, everything is always pristine and beautiful in this secluded mega large, beautifully decorated log cabin. We had 4 couples and an infant and everyone had plenty of comfy, cozy space. The kitchen is spacious and well appointed. The game room was enjoyed! This house holds many good memories and hopefully more in the making! TY to the owners for sharing this thoughtfully designed home!
