Enjoy the open concept, vaulted living room and kitchen that overlook the water.

Enough table space for 16 with a fully stocked kitchen.

Board games around the whiskey barrel game table or Corn hole out in the yard.

4 four bedrooms have a new luxury king mattress and sheets, a private bathroom, and a Roku TV to stream from your favorite channels. (You will have to log into your own accounts). Three of the bedrooms also have a twin bunk so the kids can each have their own bed. There are enough beds for 14 in the bedrooms. The couch in the living room pulls out to a sleeper sofa for 2 more, creating enough room to sleep 16.

When you're ready to get out, there is so much for people of all ages and abilities to do around the resort, on the lake, and in Branson.

Take a short scenic drive into Branson for entertainment, restaurants, nightlife, water parks, aquarium, Silver Dollar City, zip lines, golfing, go-carts, putt-putt, and so much more!

This is the place where memories are made!

After getting off the interstate, the road from Branson to Forsyth is a beautiful, scenic and winding road. Around the resort, the roads are all paved, but the parking is gravel.

A ramp leads up from the parking lot to the front door. However, it does not meet ADA standards.

I'm just a quick message away. Reach out to me if you need anything.

This cabin is in the park-like setting of Edgewater Beach Resort on the shores of Lake Taneycomo. This is a small resort where everything is in WALKING DISTANCE, including the pool, playground, and docks.

The cabin is perched out on the furthest outcropping of the resort, giving you privacy on your deck with nothing but water and Ozark hills in sight.

You can also walk next door to Empire Park, which has a fantastic disc golf course, paved walking trails, and Powersite dam.

EDGEWATER BEACH RESORT is just 2 miles outside of Forsyth and one mile from the Powersite Dam.

PARKING: At Dogwood Cabin, there is enough parking for 4 cars. If you need more room, your boat trailer can be parked near the docks just a short walk from the cabin.

PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE BOOKING

■ LAKE INFO- Lake Taneycomo is the coldest lake in MO and is famous for fishing trout, bass, bluegill, and more. It is not an ideal swimming lake, but the cold waters can be enjoyed in the hottest months of the year. Lake weeds do grow up in the shallow waters in front of the cabin for about 6 months of the year, so if you want to get into the water, plan to paddle the kayaks out to one of the coves across the lake. In the warmer months, a micro plant called Water Meal also begins to float on the lake's surface and gather along the shore. While unsightly, this grain-like plant does not harm your health or inhibit fishing. You are welcome to fish on the resort's shore and off the dock. The best fishing tends to be out in the lake's deeper waters.

■ HOT TUB - Absolutely NO GLASS or food near the hot tub. NO BUBBLES, NO SALTS OR OILS can be added to the hot tub. You must shower first and wear a swimsuit (not clothes) in the hot tub. The hot tub is professionally serviced after each guest. Just let us know if it needs to be served during your stay.

■ AGE - All guests must be 25+ with the exception of children with their parents.

■ OCCUPANCY - Maximum 16 Persons. If you bring more people than accounted for on your reservation, you will be asked to leave without a refund.

■ SECURITY CAMERA - Security cameras on the front porch are in place for your protection. You will be asked to leave the property immediately with no refund if you touch or tamper with the cameras. This is for your protection.

■ NO SMOKING - This is a NON-SMOKING/VAPING cabin.

■ UNCONTROLLABLE SITUATION - No refunds for weather/natural disasters/power outages/other things that are beyond our control. Please purchase travel insurance for coverage if this is a concern.

■ PETS - Pets are NOT allowed. We love pets. However, some of our family members and guests are very allergic to pet dander. Please be considerate and make alternate vacation arrangements for your furry family members. Many pet-friendly cabins in the area would love to host your family.

■ CHECK-IN/OUT - Check-in at 4:00 PM. Check-out at 10:00 AM. We do not offer early check-ins or late check-outs.

■ CRITTERS - We have the cabin on a regular pest control schedule to help minimize the possibility of insects and critters. However, this is a lake area and some insects are unavoidable. You can occasionally expect to see critters (bugs, ants, spiders, bats etc.) in or around the cabin. If this is a concern for you, a place further from the water may be a better fit for you. Please help us by keeping the floors swept, sweets in the fridge, and trash cleaned up.

We would love to host your group! Book now and lock in your rate!

Wonderful property!
We absolutely loved this property!! So quiet and relaxing but just a short drive to all of the fun and action! The house was fully furnished which is sometimes rare! We all sleep with fans and usually have to buy or bring our own but they had them for each bedroom! Spices and about everything you need in the kitchen already there! Plenty of paper towels and toilet paper also! We will definitely be back!!!

Wonderful stay!
There were 12 of us staying at this place over Thanksgiving. The property manager was quick to respond to any questions I had. The place has a nice setup and everything you need (except for filter water and ice). It opens up to the kitchen, dining room, and living room. There are two bedrooms to the right and two to the left (no hallways). All bedrooms are the same size, with king beds, bunk beds (except for one), and a full bath in each one. It has a patio or balcony with a hot tub looking at the lake. It is perfect for a large group.

Everything was exactly as stated in the listing…house was very clean and rooms were very spacious. Loved that there was a king bed in every room and private bathroom for each room! There was a very minor issue with one of the tubs and the property manager was extremely responsive and the issue was fixed immediately…very impressive! We spent time outside and the amenities are perfect…very quiet safe neighborhood. We would go back again!

Family Vacation
Our family vacation included a group ranging in age from 7 to 92, coming from Norman, Edmond, and Tulsa, OK, and Chesapeake, VA. Unfortunately, our dates came in the middle of the hottest, wettest summer in recorded history, which resulted in a pea-soup algal bloom in the lake, and oppressive humidity on the shore. Fortunately, we booked Dogwood Inn! The cabin was so nice and included so much to do and enjoy indoors we never even wanted to go outside. The four bedrooms—each with its own bath—were perfect for our five families. The spacious common area let us enjoy video games, card games, dominoes, puzzles, conversations, and serious snacking all at the same time in the same space. Our host, Chris, was wonderful before, during, and after our stay. He said the cabin was not officially ADA compliant, but the ramps, low thresholds, and spacious interior presented no obstacles to our walker users. The ONLY challenge we encountered was that the faucets were all plumbed backwards in terms of hot and cold locations, making water temperature control a little tricky, especially for the little guys and the adults who rely on automatic muscle memory and habit to turn on the tap. Dogwood Inn was impeccably clean, stylishly decorated (cabin style) perfectly appointed, and decidedly welcoming and comfortable. If I could have thought of something more to ask for, I would have asked and Chris would have responded. But I couldn’t.

Great VRBO stay! Power went out one night from bad storm and owner messaged immediately to make sure we had everything we needed.

Relaxing stay
We really enjoyed our time. The house was set up nicely for a large group. We were able to have adults have bedrooms/bathrooms on one side of the house and the kids on the other. Nice layout. Any issues/concerns we had were immediately addressed by the owner. The only downside I could think of was not being able to fish off shore from the property. The water level was very low so seaweed near the shore was an issue. But the 3 kayaks and/or the docks a short walk away helped that out. We left with great memories with lifelong friends that we haven’t seen in two years!

LOVED THIS PLACE! Couldn't complain about anything even if I wanted to. Beautiful clean house. Perfect kitchen/ common area for cooking & serving larger groups. Plenty of things to do both indoors & outdoors. We went at a weird time of the year so we experienced a temp range between 32-80 during our stay. The house was able to correct temperature very quickly when called upon & keep up which I can't say is true for all the places I've stayed. Hottub, best Lakeview, comfortable king beds plus bunks for the Littles, short 3mi drive to town for groceries/ dollar general/ fast food/ Starbucks. Place was great, Host was very kind & responsive, look forward to staying here again!

Perfect Getaway
This property and vacation is what we needed. The house was amazing. Fully stocked with everything we needed and plenty of room for our family of 6 to spread out and just be. The kids loved the kayaks so much we actually changed up our plans and stayed at the cabin and decided not to go into Branson. The pool was great. Shallow enough for my 5 year old but deep enough for my husband to do cannonballs to entertain the kids. Chris was fast to respond and was helpful on suggestions for fishing.

Our family really enjoyed our weekend. The house was awesome! We had 12 adults and 3 kids and were comfortable. The deck was our favorite place to gather. Great views. We didn't have any luck fishing. The water in front of the house and around the docks is shallow and covered with water weeds. It isn't mentioned in the info about the house, but there was plenty of firewood stacked under the deck.
