Our stay at Making Waves was absolutely perfect. The home, deck, and dock were all stunningâevery space was thoughtfully designed and beautifully maintained. The amenities and supplies went above and beyond anything we expected; from the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy touches throughout the home, it truly felt like a luxurious bed and breakfast. It was the perfect pocket of peace for our groupâa serene, welcoming escape that weâll never forget. Highly recommend!
The property was exactly as described in the listing and pictures. Everything was well stocked (down to the dish and laundry detergent, TP, hand soap, garbage bags and never opened kitchen sponges). The view was great from the large covered deck. It was too hot to use the hot tub, but that looked fun. We did take advantage of the large black stone grill. Andrew was very responsive with my inquiries prior to check in and during. We did have a slight issue with the Wi-Fi touch pad entry but Andrew was quick to resolve. Just a little heads up, the top bunk in the bedroom is for persons 100lbs and lighter. We used the lower bunk and the futon, so no issues for us. We really enjoyed our stay, the location on the lake was perfect and we would definitely book this place again!
We just had a remarkable stay at MakinâWaves Lodge. The view is great and the house itself is spacious, spotless, and packed with every amenity you could want, from a fully stocked kitchen to cozy beds that make you never want to leave. The multiple outdoor spaces are perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails, and the hot tub was a relaxing plus! The hosts were super responsive and went above and beyond. Hands down, a wonderful getaway spotâalready counting the days until we can come back!
So many places on the property to relax & enjoy the lake views! Owner was very responsive. Fireworks were fantastic! Kids watched them while swimming in the lake! Such awesome memories made for them! Jumping platform on the dock was a hit for all of us! Watching boats & wave runners go by all day was great! The kind neighbors offered us a boat ride to Docknockers for lunch in their super speedy boat! How blessed we were! The house was very roomy, well equipped, super clean, nautically decorated & comfy beds! More than enough space for the 6 of us. Super excited to find Himalayan pink salt with the spices to use (so so good for you)! Coffee was great! Hot tub was a nightly delight! The kitties, ducks & squirrels that visited brought us much joy! Would definitely stay here again! We were very blessed indeed to have found it available for Independence Day weekend!
It was great! All the kitchen things to cook a Thanksgiving feast and room to relax! Hot tub and fishing off the dock was also a highlight. Highly recommend!
Took my 2 young daughters for spring break somewhere different but similar this year compared to our prior few years. Weâve gone to the Smoky Mountains in recent years but wanted a different type of nature escape this year! Makinâ Waves was legit a great time. My girls loved wandering down to the dock just to hangout and dip their toes in the water. When we werenât outside, we enjoyed the spacious, comfortable, and very clean house! Stark Caverns black light cave tour was cool, Redhead Lakeside Grill was a good lunch out, and overall, the 5-night stay was great. Andrew was easy to get a hold of when I initially had an inquiry about my entry code. Weâd definitely stay again!
We stayed 3 nights in late September and enjoyed our three nights. It was quiet and the accommodations were great. We loved the location and would recommend for a getaway or family vacation
We had a great stay at Makinâ Waves lodge. Everything was as described. Outdoor area in back was super accommodating with a large covered patio, hot tub area, fire pit area, large swim dock, and lots of sitting options to just relax and enjoy the beautiful view!
Came up to visit friends and this place was perfect. Had everything we needed to cook and relax. It rained and was cold the entire time but the covered deck still allowed us to grill. Definitely would stay here again.
Wife & I enjoyed the time we spent here. Great place, quite, very clean and very relaxing ! Highly recommended if you wanna get away. Foliage was beautiful!!
The house was adorable and very clean. We all slept very well after long days of playing in the lake. The kitchen is very spacious for cooking. We loved the options on the property, swimming, using the dock for our jetski, the hot tub, and having campfires. Beautiful!
We enjoyed a relaxing weekend on the lake at the house. The fire pit was great for making sâmores in the evening. The house was cozy and beds were comfortable.
We enjoyed our stay at Makin Waves Lodge. Very clean and comfortable, no problems at all. The property is on a very peaceful part of the lake and easy to get to. Also just a short drive to everything around the lake. The owner is very easy to communicate with and very accommodating. We would recommend this property for those wanting a relaxing, comfortable stay.
The location was perfect..close to the dam, shopping, restaurants, boat rental, etc. Great cove! Andrew was punctual with answering questions and great to work with!
I self manage my rentals and take great pride in the properties we renovate and offer to our guests. We live in St. Louis but spend every extra minute we can at the lake. While we're not there, we love sharing the house with others to experience "lake life" and all the Ozarks has to offer.
