We’d love to share our beautiful modern lakefront home with you and your family. Designed for gathering and relaxing, the home features large open spaces, soaring ceilings, and oversized windows that fill the house with natural light. There are four full bedrooms plus a fifth bunk room for kids. A recently renovated garage adds a fully climate-controlled hangout and sleeping space, allowing the home to comfortably sleep up to 15 guests.

The house offers two spacious living areas—one with a cozy fireplace and the other with a large sectional, 60-inch TV, game table, and seating perfect for movies or lounging. The remodeled kitchen opens directly onto a fully furnished screened-in patio overlooking the lake, a favorite spot for morning coffee and conversation as the sun comes up over the water.

The main-floor master suite includes a king bed, private TV, and access to the upper deck. On the lower level are two bedrooms, one with a private en-suite bath and the other with easy access to a full hallway bath. One of the bedrooms has a king size bed, and the other queen. Both feature sliding glass doors with direct lake views—many guests fall asleep watching the moonlight ripple across the water. A smaller lower-level bedroom includes a twin bunk bed for kids, and an additional cozy loft bedroom upstairs with a queen bed.

The converted garage is a standout feature, serving as a game and sleeping room with carpet, heating, and air conditioning. It includes a king loft bed with a full bed underneath, an additional sofa, and space to sleep up to five. Entertainment includes classic arcade games (NBA Jam, NFL Blitz, Pac-Man), ping pong, foosball, a 65-inch TV for your gaming system, and a vintage pop machine—perfect for kids, teens, and young-at-heart adults, especially on rainy or cold days.

Outside, enjoy double decks with dining space and a Blackstone grill, regular grill, plus a lakeside fire pit with Adirondack chairs—ideal for s’mores, sunsets, and unwinding with your favorite drink. The spacious yard is great for games, and we provide several yard games stored in the garage.

Just steps from the house, the private dock features lounging areas with fans, a covered table for dining or games, a bar area, Bluetooth speakers, and a diving platform. Guests are welcome to enjoy the provided water toys, including floatables, a surfboard, skis, a wakeboard, two paddleboards, three kayaks, and a Lilly pad. Boats are welcome but must be tied to the dock, as the slip is owner-occupied. Boat rentals are nearby and can deliver directly to the dock, and a public boat ramp is just minutes away with ample driveway parking for cars and trailers.

The quiet cove is tucked away from the main channel, offering calm water for swimming, floating, and fishing, while still providing easy boat access to nearby gas docks and waterfront restaurants. Groceries, restaurants, gas, tackle shops, and convenience stores are about 10–15 minutes away by car. Golf courses, caverns, antique shops, hiking and biking trails, and the Osage Beach Outlet Mall are all within a short drive.

Please note this is a family-friendly home in a peaceful cove with mostly year-round residents. This is not a party location, and we ask guests to respect the quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Parking is limited to five vehicles unless prior approval is given.

    What a beautiful home. It was so nice to wake up and have so many choices of where to have your morning coffee. The screened in porch or the two decks. What comfortable furniture. It was very cozy to sit and relax and talk to my friends. The house is beautifully furnished and had every amenity that we needed to feel like home. I definitely would recommend this home for a family or friends weekend!

    We stayed here for a girls trip. We had an amazing stay! The house is absolutely gorgeous and so roomy. Also, the house was well stocked with everything we needed. The dock was a huge hit and love that we were able to use the lily pad! Todd was great. He was super responsive and very nice to talk to. I highly recommend this home. We will be back!

    This house provided the perfect backdrop for our family of 11. The house was exactly as described with everything you could need or want. The garage conversion with ping pong table, arcade games and tv were a hit with the kids, and the dock area is fantastic. The communication with Todd was terrific and we were provided all the information we needed. He also had some tips for our trip down that were really appreciated. The pizza from Calgaro’s in Cole Camp was fantastic.This vacation was a huge hit with all of my family, so much so we have already booked for next year. Thanks again Todd and Melissa!

    This lake house was the perfect place for our family get-a-way. The owners do such a great job of making you feel at home. They were responsive to all of my questions and made the reservation process easy. Their home is very comfortable with all the amenities you need to have a great vacation. We appreciate the use of their dock and swimming in their quiet cove.

    We traveled from out of state to enjoy a wonderful week at the Frye's Modern Lake Home. We had 10 people stay there with plenty of room! We rented a boat and tied it to the amazing dock! The location of the house is great! It is near the end of the a really nice cove. The house is easy to get to, nice views, wonderful area and easy access to the water.The best part though is the dock! The cove is deep enough to jump off the high platform and ride kayaks and drive a boat. We lived on and off the dock!The Frye's were so nice and so helpful!I highly recommend this house and hope we come back to the area. If we do, we will stay here for sure!

    All our introverts loved the early morning solitude of the dock, screened porch, lower patio swing, and upper deck. Each had their own space for quiet study and reflection. Later in the evening, our party of nine had a blast playing board games around the oversized kitchen table. And with three refrigerators total, we could easily store all the perishables we had for the week.

    This house has it all. Plenty of comfy beds. A stocked kitchen and great outdoor grill. An amazing dock on a quiet cove. Great communication with host. Short drive to nearest restaurant. Convenience store near as well. Garage takes a bit to cool down so turn on a/c promptly. Can’t wait to come back!!!

    The house was exactly what we needed with room to spread out. The dock was great and the kids swam like crazy. Communication with Todd was quick and responsive. We would definitely stay here again for our family lake trip.

    Our family had an amazing time at this beautiful lake house. It comfortably accommodated our family of five and our six additional extended relatives. As frequent visitors to the Lake of the Ozarks, we can confidently say that this is our favorite place to stay. The location on the quieter part of the lake was perfect for our younger family members who were learning to water ski. Having a boat ramp just minutes away made it convenient to put our jet ski in the water (the private ramp was even visible from the home). The dock was spacious and ideal for lounging, watching the kids play in the water, and fishing. Our children absolutely loved the water toys, including kayaks, a lily pad, diving platform, and paddle boards. Indoors, we enjoyed playing board games, retro video games, foosball, and ping pong. The screened sunroom and large deck provided a great spot to enjoy the lake view, rain or shine. The fire pit was a cozy addition after long days on the water. The kitchen was impressively large, and we especially enjoyed cooking on the Blackstone Griddle. Although we didn’t use it during this visit, the full-size grill will be on our list for future stays. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable for all the guests. Lastly, the outstanding communication—from our initial inquiry to the check-out process—made our experience even better.

    This house and the owners are absolutely amazing!!! The house is more stunning in person! The entire process from booking, paying, and communication with the owners was seamless. We had a total of 10 people 4 adults and 6 young adults and teens. The young adults loved the house, the dock, and the screened porch. The 2 teen boys had the best time sleeping in the converted garage, fishing in the kayaks, and jumping off the dock. Everything you need is at this home...from the kitchen, to the views in the living room, to the spacious bathrooms, the games in the garage...I could go on and on. Todd and Melissa were absolutely the best!!! Communication was never an issue, they are so generous and easy to ask questions, and so helpful. We plan on coming back to this house next year...we had the best time at this house and on the lake. When we get our lake hpuse, I hope its exactly like this one!!! Thank you Todd & Melissa!
