Our guests say we have clean rooms and excellent hosting per hundreds of their reviews.
Come have some fun and escape the hustle and bustle. Welcome to your award winning Oasis! Embrace tranquility with this remarkable property. Discover a timeless retreat, established in 1953. Crafted from reclaimed timber from an Iowa water tower, our four distinct buildings house 13 charming rooms. While our views may vary with the seasons, they never fail to captivate our guests. Nestled amidst tranquil woodlands, we offer a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Our resort combines a retro vibe with clean, modern comforts and impeccable service.
Guided by 72 years of warm hospitality, and just after President Truman dedicated the Bull Shoals Dam, we’ve been a beloved destination for world class trout and bass fishing for both female and male anglers, families, couple and corporate gatherings and anyone seeking relaxation and natural beauty. It’s time to make memories with family and friends. Enjoy some fun in the sun and a great relaxing atmosphere when you plan your next trip at Driftwood Resort. Just beyond the shores of Bull Shoals Lake, this outdoor getaway offers comfortable retro accommodations and wonderful outdoor activities including a quiet, crystal clear lake, swimming, fishing, boating, hiking, bicycling, motorcycle tours, floating, rafting, sightseeing and wandering around other small towns. Tour the 350 million year old caverns, James A Gaston’s Visitors Center, lake boat tours, 1890 Mountain Village, Bull Shoals Lake Boat Dock/Marina and the famous White River, local concerts or just relax at our large pool.
Combine that with fine facilities, our philosophy that warm hospitality is the mainstay of our service and it is understandable why so many folks keep returning for 25+ years, some of them several times a year.
In addition to recreational facilities onsite, guided fishing trips on the lake and the White and Buffalo Rivers and Crooked Creek are available off site. The same is true for water sports, ski and pontoon boats, jet ski, scuba diving and instruction.
Choose a sleeping, kitchenette room (fully equipped), or our 2, 3 or 5 bedroom connecting rooms or the entire resort. Stay for the night, week or longer. Just let us know. Our tiny seasoned staff takes ownership of guest satisfaction and anticipate your need in everything we do.
