Making memories starts here

This is a perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. The pool and hot tub helped us do just that. Hearing the sounds of the birds and the waves hitting the shore line was soothing. Also seeing every star possible off the pool deck was incredible This is also a place to go and have some fun Branson is about 20-25 min for this lovely home so we were able to enjoy some shows The home is beyond spacious We had a total of 5 couples and we never felt crowded. The dinning area and deck area had ample seating for us all It’s the perfect place for a wonderful stay. I’d come back hands down The management was always right on top of things. Thanks for the memorable stay

Perfect Getaway at Van Kirk Cove Today, ten other friends and I departed Van Kirk Cove. We spent five days and four nights. The setting and accommodations are excellent! Eleven adults in one lodging may seem like much. We were all together for a local university’s homecoming. However, the numerous rooms, comfortable beds, and furniture, along with a spacious kitchen, great room, and downstairs game room, created more than enough space for all of us. Adjacent to the parking area is an apartment that serves as a retreat in itself, complete with a fire pit and wood provided. The Kitchen is complete. We ate most of our meals there. When we ate out, I’d suggest the nearby Lake Time Bistro and Flat Creek Restaurant. Although it's early October, the swimming pool is heated, making it wonderful for soaking, swimming, and floating. We spent several hours in the pool and the wonderful hot tub, laughing and talking. The setting is incredible! It truly rests atop a cove on Table Rock Lake. We ate breakfast on the house-length deck. We’d spend leisurely mornings there, taking in the beauty of the woods and Table Rock Lake. There is a well-lit path with rock steps that lead to the dock. Along the way, you’ll find sturdy walking sticks provided. Several in our party used them. There is also a fire pit with plenty of wood provided. None of us wanted to leave. We had such fun, and all commented, “What a great place.” We are already making plans for next year.

Five couples, all long time friends, stayed at the Van Kirk Cove for 4 nights! We have done this yearly for some time. The Van Kirk Cove was by far our best vacation yet! It had everything you could possibly want! The house is absolutely huge! There's room for everyone to spread out. The bedrooms are large end super comfortable. The pool is huge, heated, where we had a ton of fun. The jacuzzi was amazing, with tons of jets to relax every part of your body. The kitchen is spacious, with everything you need to prepare all your meals. There are two huge ice machines, and wine cooler. The views are absolutely stunning! There's tons of outdoor furniture, that you can face towards 143,000 acre lake, and watch all the boating and wildlife and waterfowl. Go ahead and book this place now! Before it fills up! You and your family will be so happy that you stayed at the Van Kirk cove!

We stayed here w 4 other couples. We did not want to leave. The house is spectacular. We congregated in the living room and deck and hot tub. The floor plan allowed all 10 of us to gather together. The pool and hot tub were wonderful and the deck had great views of table rock lake. We are planning to come back next year as it is a perfect vacation spot for family or friends

We rented those to celebrate our retirement with our family. It was perfect, with lots of things for the family to do. Fishing was good ,although it was a bit of a walk, but worth every step once you got to the dock. We caught bluegill, bass, and catfish. Everyone enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Our only complaint with the hot tub was it need steps to get into it. You can use the retaining wall, but steps would have been better. The kitchen had everything we needed ,except large bowls. I think they need to add a few large bowls for big salads for the family. We would recommend this place for a large family looking for a place to relax and enjoy your time together!!!! (SIDE NOTE: We are adding BIG bowls to our kitchen thanks to this review.)

This was the perfect vacation. The privacy of this place was spectacular from the pool and hot tub to the private dock for fishing and swimming. We loved everything about it.

We enjoyed our vacation with our adult kids and their families. We ate nearly all of our meals at the house. We all enjoyed the pool. We loved that it had shallow areas for the littles as well as deeper areas for the older kids. We stayed during a really hot week, so the shaded areas and sun umbrellas were much appreciated. We had a problem with the AC on arrival. A service tech was sent out that day (Sunday) to resolve the problem.

Recently stayed in this gorgeous home. We had so much fun playing in the pool and just relaxing. The house is spacious, yet cozy. We loved cooking in the large open kitchen and enjoyed dinners on the deck enjoying the lake view. My grandkids loved the basement game area and watching movies on the big TV! It was nice to have an area where we could all spread out and do our own thing if we wanted or hang out together on the big sectionals! Definitely enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Van Kirk Cove.

Wonderful place for the whole family to be together. Pool was great and lots of room to gather.

Van Kirk Cove was a joy to stay at! It was private and peaceful with stunning views, close enough to drive back and forth to close by attractions but far enough out of town so you wouldn't hear the hustle and bustle! Just as described in listing and clean! This is by far one of my family's favorite stays we've experienced. Highly recommend!
