About this property

Best Lakefront Lodge in Branson! Dock, Fishing Canoes, Pool Table!

The Red Elk Lodge is a secluded, beautiful, unique and luxurious lakefront lodge. It is perfect for family reunions, gatherings, and celebrations! Intricate custom woodwork abounds throughout the entire home with knotty pine floors and walls, vaulted ceilings, and a custom staircase!

LOCATION:
It is located in a peaceful cove with no other homes in sight, and still only 6 miles to the Branson Landing and the 76 strip!

BEDROOMS:
This custom-built lodge has six deluxe king bedrooms with carefully selected top-grade mattresses, sheets, and bedding. Every bedroom is equipped with a king size bed and a smart TV. The bunk area is located on the lower level. There are two double bunk beds and a 60" smart TV.
There are four bathrooms, two on each level.

DINING ROOM AND GREAT ROOM:
The Red Elk Lodge has very large common areas, which are great for big gatherings! The dining room has room for everyone, seating 20! The great room is open to the dining room and the large kitchen.

KITCHEN:
Our spacious kitchen features an antique-style gas stove and oven, an additional electric oven, and two refrigerators. The fully stocked kitchen has pots, pans, mixing bowls, baking dishes, toasters, blender, crock pot, coffee maker, and cooking utensils.

ENTERTAINMENT:
The lodge has something for everyone with free wifi, two big screen smart TVs, cable, pool table on the covered deck and even board games. The lodge has over 1100 square feet of covered decking with three picnic tables overlooking Lake Taneycomo and a large BBQ grill big enough to cook for everyone!

THE GREAT OUTDOORS:
Gather your family and friends around the large stone fire pit and roast marshmallows, or just relax and listen to the gentle flowing water of the cove. A dock was installed February 2021 and it is perfect for taking in the beautiful scenery of the cove during each season! Bring your fishing poles for great trout fishing on beautiful Lake Taneycomo! You are welcome to fish from the dock, but the best fishing is done aboard the three fishing and leisure canoes!

Best family lake trip!

The property has an amazing deck that wrapped around… 15 of us were able to do puzzles hang out and enjoy the beautiful scenery for our graduation vacation! This was probably one of the best kited out kitchens we have had with VRBO.

The property was in a beautiful setting. The dock and 3 canoes were used a lot. The lodge was beautifully decorated. Beds were very comfortable. We would come back again. The host promptly replied to all our questions. The large deck gave a scenic view of the lake. Pool table provided fun as well. Highly recommend!

Great house for multiple families

We had a great time at the house for a multigenerational family vacation! There was plenty of room for the 13 of us. We really enjoyed the canoes. It was the perfect location for doing activities in Branson, so close but felt secluded. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay! We had our whole family here... Kids, parents, grandparents... And it was set up perfectly! The owner was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions or concerns. From the huge, well stocked kitchen to the canoes and provided life vests and fishing gear, they provided for almost everything you'd want to do! Not a lot of luck fishing from the dock, but we were successful from the canoes. Only one thing, more as an fyi, the roads to the house are narrow and there are steep drops on the sides, so be careful when driving to the house. But it's beautiful and you see a bunch of wildlife! As far as location, there is a gas station and grocery store not too far (about 7-10 minutes), and Branson is 15-20 minutes away. We would definitely stay again, thank you for providing an exceptional place to make lifelong memories!

The house was spacious and comfortable for a large family group. The large kitchen with two refrigerators was a real plus and a large dining room table allowed us all to eat together as a family. The young adults enjoyed the pool table and outdoor space. The dock and the canoes were a big hit with the guys.

The property was beautiful!! Everything you could imagine to meet our needs was supplied. The host was very helpful and was quick to answer any questions. The only wrinkle was learning to navigate the driveway but with the helpful suggestions listed in the our welcome letter, that was quickly accomplished. Highly recommend

Peaceful/Quiet getaway Place

This huge cabin was great; it had plenty of room and space that was perfect for all being together and yet if you needed space, you could find someplace to go. The huge kitchen, double fridge/freezers, electric oven and gas stovetop/oven made it convenient for us to cook meals; and the huge dining table allowed us to eat together. The wrap around porch with grill, pool table and rocking chairs made it a fun place to hangout. We enjoyed the huge fire pit several evenings down near the shoreline. We would highly recommend this place and would definitely book it again in the future.in the the evenings.

Family Vacation

The lodge was amazing. Everyone said this was their favorite place we have stayed in. We have been coming to Branson for 8 yrs for vacation. Kitchen was perfect for cooking for a large group. We had 17. Our only complaint would be the lake was very dirty and mossy. The kids could not get in and swim. The mosquitoes were very bad. We bought spray to spray on patio and dwn at the deck. Of course not the owners fault. Just that time of year! We hope to stay again!

This was a great place for my family to meet up with our friends. We both have large families and the lodge accommodated us very well. Everything was as advertised. The kitchen really facilitated both families with dual everything. We loved the canoes and enjoyed a lot of time canoeing around the water, fishing on the dock and campfire by the water.
