This is our second time staying with this host and as last time,everything was great!From the decor,and plenty of toys to use on the lake! We highly recommend to stay here if you are at the Lake of the Ozarks!!
This is such a great place to stay! The theme is fun, location is perfect for places on the Gravois & Osage arm with 2 grocery stores nearby! I had 2 teenage girls with me that loved the dock space; enjoyed paddle boats and lily pad catching rays! The owner was wonderful to work with, as well!
Rod was fantastic! He has put in so much thought and care into this property and it shows! We had so much fun swimming and fishing off the dock. Great place to bring the family, we will be back!
We loved staying at this property. The attention to detail and the quiet location is perfect for the relaxing getaway we needed to recharge. Beautiful space to unwind. The home had everything we needed and the dock has plenty of space to swim, float, fish or just sit and enjoy the sunset. Plenty of sunshine and shade for us and our pup! We can’t wait to come back next year.
This is our second stay here and it is absolutely perfect! It is in a quiet, no wake cove so we could just lounge on the water all day or take the kayak's and paddle boards out. Rod is so accommodating and nice and the bunkhouse is the perfect size and has everything you could need! Can't wait to come back!
Everything was wonderful. Well appointed, very comfortable, very clean, great location. Will recommend to family & friends. And, will definitely book again. Thank you Rod & Deena for a fantastic experience.
Rod's hospitality and the property was everything we needed for a relaxing get away with our kids. We had the perfect amount of space for our young family of 5 in a lovely set up and all the water fun we desired. Thanks for such a great place for us to hang our hats for the week!
The Whiskey Barrel Bunkhouse was a wonderful place for us to stay while visiting friends on the lake! Rod is a super nice guy and a true artist. We were amazed at his handiwork throughout the whole place. The pictures don’t do it justice. We had everthing we needed in the bunkhouse and on the patio and dock. We were pleased with the available kayaks and paddleboards available so we didn’t have to pack our own. We would definitely book the bunkhouse again. Thank you so much Rod!
Fun whiskey barrel/western theme… There are so many cool things to look at inside. Every detail is done with such quality craftsmanship & is so well thought out. We more than had everything we needed. The location is very quiet & peaceful. We tried to take advantage of all of the amenities… went out in the peddle boat, used the kayaks & the paddle boards.osmart tv
Kim and I had a wonderful time at the Whiskey Barrel Bunkhouse. Spacious and cozy. Well equipped in the kitchen and bathroom. There is a lot of really nice craftmanship items to use and look at. Access to the dock is easy. Plenty of campfire wood and a nice area to use it. Very close to restaurants, grocery stores and the bait shop. Our focus was on fishing, but we really had a good time relaxing at the bunkhouse and looking at the scenery around it. We look forward to returning.
Rod is a super host, friendly and so are his fur babies. Attention to detail is evident through out the entire cabin. Superb hand made woodwork. Quiet and love the deer, chipmunks, fox and squirrels. If someone is wanting the most relaxing weekend of the year this is the place to be. We didn't get to enjoy the water but I bet that would have been great also.
