Great place on the lake!
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.

Pleasant stay
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.

Great location, perfect for our family of 6
We enjoyed being right on the water - spent time on the lake tubing, floating, fishing. Especially enjoyed the covered deck for morning coffees, afternoon naps, and evening card playing! Not many mosquitoes to speak of which made it even more enjoyable. We ate in some thanks to the fully stocked kitchen and also ate out some too. Definitely used the on-site laundry too. Highly recommend, especially if you want a quieter area of the lake with quick access to everything!

Spring break trip
House is very clean and well stocked. There’s great views from the many windows in the living room. We enjoyed the outdoor areas of the home, especially the hot tub and the outdoor dining area. Property is just a short drive to grocery stores and restaurants.

Great mid-week stay in the Ozarks
Makin-waves is a very clean and well maintained home in a great location. Deep water cove off the main channel but close to great restaurants and everything you’ll want / need. Owner is very responsive and was flexible with us when we needed to make a change to the date of our original stay. Would love to stay here again. Brian
