The Bedrooms:

Luxuriously appointed bedrooms are all different from one another, each is influenced by one of the beautiful local birds of the Ozarks. There are 7 bedrooms and a nursery, with a variety of room configurations, some with ensuite bathrooms, balconies, terraces, and all (but one) with a stunning lake view.

These are the lodge's sleeping areas:
CARDINAL (sleeps 2-3)
The only bedroom in the Upper East Wing of the lodge, the master bedroom has a King Bed, one Single Bed, balcony with table, chairs, and a stunning lake view. The Master bathroom is en suite, which has a freestanding egg bath complete with lake view, walk-in rainfall shower, twin sinks, and a walk-in wardrobe.

BLUE JAY (sleeps 2-4)
Walk across to the Upper West Wing of the lodge, to the Blue Jay Master bedroom with a King Bed, 2 Single Beds, and French doors leading to the large deck with a panoramic lake view. The Bathroom is next door, and shared with the Goldfinch Room. It has a walk-in shower, single sink, and lake view window.

GOLDFINCH (sleeps 2-4)
This room is adjoining the Blue Jay Room above so would work well for families that wis to be close together. Two Queen Canopy beds make this an elegant room for couples or children to share. This is the only bedroom which does not have a lake view, but it has a lovely view over the garden.

BALD EAGLE (sleeps 2-4)
Now we take a trip downstairs to the Lower West Wing of the lodge. The bald eagle room has a striking monochromatic color scheme, a window with a Lake View, a King bed and 2 Single Beds. It connects to a large bathroom with bathtub/shower and twin sinks. The bathroom is also shared by the Bluebird Room which is next door.

BLUEBIRD (sleeps 2)
The pretty iridescent blue tones of this room make this one a favorite. It has a great lake view, and a King bed so it is ideal for couples.

PELIATED WOODPECKER (sleeps 2)
Walk across to the Lower West Wing of the lodge, and the Peliated Woodpecker Room is great for those who wish to be in the heart of the action. With the downstairs kitchen on one side, and the Games Room on the other, and a door leading to the lower deck and swimming pool, there is always something to do. The elegant iron canopy Queen bed makes it a romantic choice for couples. It is also closest to the nursery - so would be good for parents. The Peliated Woodpecker Room shares a bathroom with the Nursery and games room. The bathroom has a large walk-in rainfall shower and twin sinks.

ORIOLE (nursery sleeps 1-2)
A whimsical room with a full size crib, toy chest and a small sofabed, perfectly designed for our younger guests.

HUMMINGBIRD (sleeps 4-6)
The largest room in the house, with its own ensuite bathroom complete with twin rainfall shower, and twin sinks. There is a King Bed, bunk beds with one Full Bed and one Single Bed, plus a Queen sofabed. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and pool area.

GAMES ROOM (sleeps 2-4)
The Games Room provides a fun setting with ample seating, large flatscreen TV for watching movies, and a stone fireplace. It also has a Queen sofabed, two Single sofabeds, and blackout curtains so it works very well as an extra bedroom. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and grass area. The bathroom is just a few steps away and has a large rainfall shower and twin sinks.

DOWNSTAIRS SITTING AREA (sleeps 1)
There is a sleeper sofa in the sitting area by the downstairs kitchen which is suitable for 1 adult.

Please note: Equani Lodge has a sister property, Anedodi which is 15 minutes' drive away and sleeps up to 18 people.

Guest access
Set on 11 acres of lake view land for your exclusive use, there is a large parking area with space for 15 cars. The pool is seasonal - open and heated from April through October.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Equani Lodge has a sister property, Anedodi which is only a 15 minute drive away. VRBO Listing #213735

    Our stay was great. The house was beautiful inside and outside. My family loved the view from each room. The mountains and water were gorgeous. We only had one problem and that was some of the chairs at the dining table needed repairing. It appeared as if the host knew and didn’t inform us. Only two TV’s in the house which need to be updated they were to small for the size of the rooms. The view is beautiful but you need more TVs in a house of that size.This home was gorgeous and I would recommend to others. I can only imagine what it would look like in the spring and summer and can’t imagine when the leaves are changing.

    We love staying here, it’s perfect for our family. This is our 3rd stay. It could use some minor repairs, listed several and sent them to the property manager. For the price, you shouldn’t have to make a list of things needed to be addressed. Overall, love the place! Thank you!

    This house was the perfect location and size for our family vacation. We were supposed to visit in the summer but our baby girl had other plans. We would have loved to take advantage of the pool but this just means we will need to visit again during warmer weather!!

    Beautiful Views of the lake and woods! We stayed over a weekend with friends and family and had our daughter's wedding outside, the house is very nice, clean and spacious! There were a few issues upon arrival with not enough bedding and light bulbs missing but the housekeeper came right away and provided us with what was needed and the next day they replaced the bulbs that were missing. This is a great house to have friends and family get together for a vacation and we did love the view for the wedding! There were some issues with some of the tables, chairs, outdoor furniture & area for the wedding but we were told they would be getting these things fixed so you might check before you book your event that they have been rectified.

    This was the absolutely most beautiful property to host a family wedding. The views were stunning, property perfectly fit all our family and had places to accommodate every guest. Memories to last a lifetime! The only negatives were that for a wedding we wish the lawn had been mowed and fire pit was completely filled with ashes. We had to clean before having a fire.

    We have not been able to stop gushing about how much we loved this venue for our summer wedding. Our guests and family/friends had nothing but amazing comments about the view, the home, the pool, everything! Sean was super responsive with anything we needed during our stay, and Hilary was phenomenal in providing details and helping answer questions before we arrived. Highly highly recommend for a vacation and wedding getaway!
