Lakecation Vacations in Osage Beach, Missouri

“Great location, very clean and nicely decorated. Driveway was being worked on so parking was very uneven. Clear directions. No response was received when asking questions about the boat slip and boat rentals”

“Perfect location!”

“The property was easy to find. It was convenient parking for unloading our belongings. No steps. Nice size rooms and kitchen. The kitchen was fairly well stocked with a few pots, pans, dishes, silverware and knives, etc. There was only one hangar in the closets and no dressers in either bedroom. Weeds were pretty good. Firm rather than soft. Nice washer and dryer which we didn’t need to use. One of our favorite things about it was it had a water softener which we usually miss when we are away from home. It is a pet friendly place, so of course it wasn’t spotless, but it was very clean and didn’t have any odors. The screened in area was great because we did get some heavy rains and we were able to sit outside in the storm. It is also nice and private. I wasn’t aware that the Portal and the messages area were separate places, so I didn’t have a map at first. Overall I would recommend it for a short stay.”

“The host requires name, address, phone number, ID number, selfie picture taken through their app and picture of your drivers license for every person staying in the property. They mention this prior to booking but don’t include the extent of the information required until after you pay. This is enough personal information to open most accounts. However if you do not provide this information you can cancel the reservation but they keep your money. This information should be required prior to payments so the renter can back out without loosing the money. I expect it is set up this way by design.”

“The home offers plenty of sleeping space for larger groups and a wooded setting but was still noisy with close neighbors. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and balcony which was nice. However, guests should note that the king bedroom is upstairs, while the other bedrooms are downstairs. The property felt more dated and worn in person than the listing photos suggest. We noticed cobwebs, dusty areas, wall scuffs and buildup in some bathroom and AC areas. Some furnishings and décor also appear different from the photos making the home feel different than expected. We were disappointed that access information for the nearby free open pool listed was not provided making it unavailable for our use during the stay. Guests should be aware that there is a significant amount of communication, reminders, and additional forms required before and during the stay, which was more extensive than what we have experienced at Airbnb properties.”
