After 16 years of having vacation homes in the Branson area, we have embarked on our latest addition to our distinctive and high quality homes. After listening to our thousands of guests who have stayed with us over the years, and hearing their preferences, we have taken their input and have built Heritage Retreat.
Once we found the best location, with a view of Table Rock Lake, and just 6 minutes from the Hwy 76 strip, 5 minutes to the marina, two minutes to Moonshine Beach and the dam, and 10 minutes to Silver Dollar City, we knew it was time to build our perfect vacation home. With 10 bedrooms, each with own bathroom, a half-bath, and the most popular amenities that guests have mentioned, this unique home is the complete vacation rental for family reunions, church groups, golf trips, ladies gatherings, couples vacationing together, and even business conferences. Heritage Retreat will accommodate up to 46 people with over 7,000 square feet inside the home.

MAIN FLOOR
Entering Heritage Retreat, you are greeted with the large open dining/ kitchen/ great room area with a see-through gas stone fireplace. The exposed beams, open catwalk, and windmill fan add to the expanse and grandeur of the home. The large windows on both sides of the fireplace give a view of Table Rock Lake.
The dining area has four, 8 foot dining tables which will seat 40 people. There is also seating at the kitchen island. The tables can be used to host conferences. A large dining area with plenty of seating is one of the top preferences our guests have mentioned.
The kitchen is fully equipped for all your group and has plenty of dinnerware and pantry space for groceries. There are two kitchen sinks, two stoves, two dishwashers, a microwave, and a refrigerator with freezer. With all that seating, you may need all that this kitchen provides for those delicious meal preparations. You don't have to pack clothes for everyday as there are also two large capacity washers and dryers in here and we do provide laundry soap and dryer sheets. You will find another fridge/freezer and an ice machine as well as the washer and dryers off the kitchen.
The great room area features a large flat screen smart TV. The dining tables can be used so conference presentations can made using the big screen. Each TV in the home will have its own HDMI wall outlet to directly connect your computers and games systems.
Slide open the barn doors which lead to the two master suites on the main level. The one to the left is fully ADA handicap accessible with king bed, roll-in shower, and roll-up bathroom sink. This room sleeps two. The other to the right has king bed, daybed with trundle, tub/shower, and its own door to the back deck. It sleeps four. Each bedroom has its own TV and a ceiling fan. On each side of the beds are a sconce light with a floating shelf and outlets with USB ports for charging your electronics.
If you enjoy beautiful sunsets, the back deck is the place to be. Off the great room is the door to magnificent lake views from the back deck and more dining space. On those cooler nights, pull up a chair next to the outdoor fireplace.
UPPER LEVEL
At the top of the stairs going to the upper level, you find yourself on the large open catwalk with railings on both sides, a view below, and an cocktail arcade with 60 classic games. Remember how to use a joystick?!
There are four master suites on the upper level, each with a king bed, daybed with trundle, its own TV, and bathroom with walk-in shower. They each sleep four. Distinctive features include custom made closets with shelving and cubbies so you're not living out of a suitcase. As with the main level, each side of the beds is a sconce light and a floating shelf with outlets and USB ports for charging. Each bedroom has a ceiling fan.
When you stay in one of these master suites, you get to step out on your own private balcony to enjoy some peace and quiet while drinking your morning coffee and relishing the gorgeous lake view, or relax after a busy day with a glass of wine and view the beautiful sunset over the lake, another unique feature of Heritage Retreat. From here you will want to take some vacation pictures to post on Facebook. You will find a third washer and dryer on this level.
LOWER LEVEL
The lower level has four master suites. Three have a king bed, daybed with trundle, a TV, and walk-in shower. They each sleep four and have the same floating shelves with charging capabilities as the other levels. The fourth is our bunk room with three sets of bunkbeds, sleeping up to eight. Each bunk has its own outlet with USB and light. The bunk room has its own bathroom with walk-in shower. These aren't just kiddie bunks. Adults can use them as well. One of the bunks is full over full size. All the bedrooms on this level have their own TV and ceiling fan, except for the bunk room. We didn't want a ceiling fan too close to the top bunk guests.
There is a large flat screen smart TV in the lower level family room, great for watching the game. Need a refill or some popcorn? No need to go climb the stairs as there is a kitchenette/wet bar on this level with a third refrigerator, microwave, sink, and pub table with stools. There are two twin sleepers also in the family room.
Take a break from the electronic games and play some billiards on the pool table. Or have a tournament on the air hockey table.
BACK PATIO
Slide the glass doors and step out on the back patio. Here you'll find more comfortable furniture, the gas fire pit, and the propane gas grill for those delicious BBQ meals. Who doesn't like to sit around the fire and have a few drinks and conversation with a lake view in the background. No need to hassle with firewood or starting a fire, just click the fire on for instant heat and enjoyment. After a long day of activities, roast some hot dogs or marshmallows and make some smores.
The swim/spa is the main highlight of the back patio. Another of our guests top preferences is a private hot tub for adults and heated swim area for the kids. It is only for our guests staying at Heritage Retreat. This swim spa is 20 feet long and 7 1/2 feet wide. Relax and drift away as you let the spa jets soothe your muscles. The spa is divided from the swim area and is heated to 102 degrees. The swim portion is 15 feet long and heated at 80 degrees with an eternity swim jet which allows adults to swim as far as they want without going anywhere. It s a great work out. However, I plan to use the hot tub portion and watch my grandkids in the swim area. You must be 16 years old to stay in the hot tub for longer periods of time as it s not safe for young children to be in there for more than 10 minutes. But they will love the swim portion and you'll probably end up joining them.
BOATING ON THE LAKE
State Park marina is five minutes away where you can rent all kinds of water craft for an adventure on Table Rock Lake. Bringing your own boat? There is a public boat launch at Moonshine Beach and you can load and unload at the courtesy dock and even gas up there. State Park marina will also rent a boat slip for your stay if you prefer.
PET FRIENDLY
Heritage Retreat is pet friendly. The pet fee is $35 per night, per pet. Only dogs are allowed. If you are bringing a furry family member, you must mention how many in your reservation request and I will send a payment request for the pet fee for more than one dog.
AMENITIES
In the summer, take advantage of the on-site community amenities which include outdoor and swimming pool, tanning deck, kiddie splash pad, and playground. Take advantage of the indoor heated swimming pool which is open year round. Great for those rainy days or when staying during the cooler parts of the year.
There is a quiet cove on the lake just about a 1/4 mile stroll from the house where you can fish or just skip rocks across the water.
DAMAGE WAIVER
The damage protection waiver covers accidental damage that is reported to the owner immediately. It does not cover intentional damage, damage due to guest neglect, or unreported damages by check out. Maximum coverage is $1500. Damages over $1500 will be the responsibility of guest.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
The security deposit is a hold placed on your credit card and is not actually charged. The hold is released three days after departure as long as there is no damage above damage waiver limit, extra cleaning needed, or policy violations.
