Remodeled 3 Bed/2Ba Lakefront Home - Hot Tub, Smart TVs, EV Charger, Firepit

Welcome to Makin' Waves Lodge on Birdsong Hollow Cove!

This newly remodeled, 1200 sq ft lakefront home at Lake of the Ozarks has been updated to provide guests with everything necessary to make great memories at the lake.

Outdoor space is plentiful including a large covered deck with a brand new Blackstone griddle and Smart TV, martini deck with covered gazebo, and a newly upgraded dock complete with picnic table, mini-fridge, and jumping platform. After a long day swimming or skiing and tubing, relax your muscles in the covered hot tub. It's always fun to end your day and watch the sunset with a fire and s'mores in the the fire pit.

Family fun on the Lake
We had a good time with family at this property. The dock was great, and the location was nice. There were some things that might need to be looked at in the near future. The stairs down to the dock were needing repair. The last step was hard to maneuver. The BBQ was very greasy and other furniture on the deck also. The house was clean and worked great for the seven of us with plenty of room.

Cozy Getaway
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!

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!

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.

We loved the making waves lodge. We were looking for a relaxing getaway with a beautiful view and that is what we got. We loved having the hot tub and the fire pit which was amazing on a chilly night. The house was beautifully decorated and very clean. It had everything that we could ask for. We reached out to the management company for early check in and was helped right away. Would highly recommend.

Can’t wait to go back
We rent a lake house for a week every summer and have yet to stay at a property more than once, until now. We had such an amazing time at Makin Waves Lodge that we have already decided it’s where will stay again next year. Andrew, the host, was wonderful and even accommodated our last minute desire to stay an extra night. Communication was 5 stars. The property itself was exactly as listed, which is rare in my experience. The house was very clean, beds were comfortable, and there were so many little extras at the house that speak to the thoughtfulness of the host. The towels, dishes, cooking utensils, etc were all in great condition and made making meals easy & enjoyable. The house is 5 stars. The outdoor areas from the huge deck right off the kitchen, to the hot tub, fire pit, covered seating area, and the dock were all amazing. All the areas were clean and well kept. You can tell the owner takes care of everything and wants guests to be able to just relax and enjoy the lake. The swim dock was where we spent most of our days. Everything was meticulously maintained , and the mini fridge was a great touch due to all the stairs. The jumping platform was a lot of fun. We stayed Monday to Saturday and the water was wonderful for swimming and floating. I research a place to stay every year and appreciate honest, thorough reviews. I could go on and on about this property….definitely 5 stars.

Perfect Lake House Vacation!
The property is just as described and pictured and was able to accommodate 6 adults very comfortably. We spent a lot of time in the lake and used the hot tub every night. A short drive to some nice restaurants and shopping. We even rented a pontoon and went bar hopping one day. We all agreed that we would stay here again! Thank you, Andrew, for sharing your lake house with us!

Happy Family
The place was very nice. Everyone in my family had a place to go to unwind and relax. We spent a lot of time on the dock where the water was calm and out of the way from boat traffic. The deck on the house has an amazing view of the lake and made a nice place to enjoy some good food that we cooked on the grill. We definitely would like to come back again!

Fun getaway!
House was clean and the dock was very nice! We have stayed at several places in the Ozarks over the years and this had the best parking by far! The only things I wish to change was the number of stairs and the amount of boat traffic which caused it to be quite wavy even during the week. We loved the outdoor areas especially since we were able to watch TV under the cover deck while grilling out! Very quiet, private house for a group of moms wanting a break!

Nice house on the lake
The "kids" (ages 22-29) had a great time swimming off the dock. Of course, one of the first things they noticed was the tiki bar next door. By the next day, Captain Ron invited us over for drinks. How fun! We spent a lot of time on the covered back porch. The fans keep it a really comfortable outdoor space. The grill was very dirty when we arrived and my nephew had to spend some time cleaning it. Not a big deal. Kitchen was pretty well equipped. My only one small suggestion might be a broom. The house was very clean when we arrived and I like to leave places as close to the way they were when we arrived. Plenty of towels and blankets provided. We did not use the hot tub. If we return to the area, we would definitely stay here again. Owner was very responsive to questions and check in process was simple.

Spring Break Getaway
My family of 5 stayed here over spring break and really enjoyed it. The location is off the beaten path so there isn't much to do aside from hang out at the house but that was fine for our needs. The house was big enough for all of us and the outdoor space was good. The stairs were a bit treacherous and the ourdoor area was a bit rotted in some areas but otherwise pretty functional. Communication with Andrew was great and he was very helpful with everything. Check in was easy and he had the hot tub ready for us a few days earlier than they typically open. All in all, solid property that would be a good place for a family to stay. I wouldn't put more than 1 family family in there unless you are super close :).
