Lakefront House, Sleeps 20, Great for Christmas Gathering, One hour from Tulsa

Nestled along the shores of Grand Lake, this exquisite 2000 square foot farmhouse-style abode stands as a testament to idyllic living. With panoramic vistas that defy description and a tranquil waterside haven, this residence offers an unparalleled escape from the everyday.

Exciting news! We've added a suite with a king bed, a comfortable full size futon, and a stunning lakeside view. It can increase the sleeping capacity to 20. However if your group is smaller we can block the suite and reduce the rate. Please lets us know what works best for you group.

Step inside, and the home's heartwarming embrace envelopes you. A carefully crafted layout seamlessly merges cozy comfort with airy expansiveness, providing an ideal setting for gatherings both intimate and grand. The pièce de résistance: a magnificent 9-foot dining table that beckons to become the epicenter of countless shared memories over delectable meals.

Outside, a world of leisurely luxury unfolds. The covered 36' x 12' patio, mere steps from the dining room, becomes a canvas for relaxation and enchantment. Underneath the open sky, three tables and chairs invite al fresco dining, while a 13-foot sitting bench provides a tranquil vantage point. The rhythm of life slows down as you sway gently on the porch swing or cradle yourself in the hammock. And when day surrenders to twilight, the fire pit ignites, casting an enchanting glow that mirrors the setting sun and the emergence of the moon.

For those traveling with canine companions, a private 30' x 30' fenced doggy play area ensures both furry friends and their human counterparts find joy in their own respective havens. Additionally, the backyard's inviting expanse, gently sloping towards the boat dock railing, provides an exquisite backdrop for small-scale weddings and cherished family reunions.

Grand Lake, renowned for its wealth of vacation pursuits, promises a repertoire of amusements. Immerse yourself in superlative fishing and duck hunting, with a dedicated fish cleaning area catering to angler enthusiasts. Water sports aficionados will find solace in the private dock, while off-road devotees have ample parking for their vehicles and accompanying gear. A brief drive leads to the Disney Okla. off-road park, where exhilarating adventures await.

Nestled within the heart of the Midwest, this haven's central location presents an irresistible proposition for those seeking seamless access to both serenity and urban amenities. A mere 8 miles from the forthcoming American Heartland Theme Park, an hour's drive from Tulsa, 40 minutes from Joplin MO, and within a 3-hour radius of Kansas City, the residence's convenience is matched only by its charm.

Inside, the abode continues to dazzle with its thoughtful design. Three resplendent bedrooms, each adorned with king beds, offer sanctuaries of repose. A semi-private common area featuring a queen futon, a twin bed with trundle, and four rollaway beds further enhance accommodations. The capacious farmhouse table, surrounded by inviting seating options, ensures that conviviality reigns supreme, while a fully equipped kitchen caters to culinary ambitions.

Outdoor indulgences abound with a sprawling covered back porch, measuring 36' x 12', granting an unhindered panorama from sunrise to sunset. Whether it's al fresco dining at the three tables, the gentle sway of the porch swing, the cocooning embrace of the hammock, or the camaraderie around the fire pit, the outdoors beckon with unending allure. A dedicated fish cleaning station and a private boat dock, allowing for uninterrupted water experiences, are among the many amenities.

Parking, thoughtfully curated, anticipates diverse needs. Whether it's large group gatherings, weddings, family reunions, or sporting enthusiasts with multiple vehicles, the property accommodates with ease. Furthermore, a designated spot with water and 30 or 50 amp electricity is primed to cater to RV travelers' every requirement.

In an effort to elevate your stay, a range of additional services is offered. Pre-ordered grocery pick-up and delivery alleviate mundane concerns, while boat launching assistance ensures seamless aquatic endeavors.

For those accompanied by beloved canines, rest assured that a welcoming policy exists. A dog fee per stay, designed to accommodate up to four dogs, acknowledges the special bond between pet and owner.

In the symphony of luxury, convenience, and natural splendor, this residence stands as a masterpiece, promising an experience that transcends the ordinary and embraces the extraordinary.

Should your group expand beyond the needs of this rental, next door is The Cottage vrbo.com/3799363 and it sleeps 6 and across the street is The Cabin vrbo.com/3534114 that sleeps 4. There are also two convenient RV spots, one has water and electric for $25 per night and the other has full-hookups for a $50 per night.

Great house for large groups!
I have booked many VRBO’s and the pictures are always better than the house. Not this house! It is better than expected. I was skeptical that it would sleep 20 comfortable and we had one day of the trip where we had 20 and it did the job! I was worried about having only 2 bathrooms but we never ran out of hot water! The beds were firm and comfortable with nice sheets and pillows. There were plenty of extra blankets too. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need. But the real show stopper is the view of the lake and the back porch and back yard. The landscaping was immaculate! We had access to the fish shack for cleaning fish and roasted s’mores around the fire pit. We brought our French bulldogs and they loved the large backyard and of course the fenced in area with shade was great for the 2 puppies to play. We brought our boat and docked at their dock which made it so convenient. The hosts were pleasant and accommodating. They greeted us and walked us through their property. Would I book this house again? Absolutely!!! And if you are on the fence about this property, don’t be…. just book it!!!

Picked this house for Wheelchair Accessibility and Water Access
I selected this house as it was listed as wheelchair accessible. It was great, there were no issues getting in and around. The owners even made the bathroom more accessible for us. This house was great overall, the layout, and cleanliness were spot on. The owners were great to work with on the few questions I had as our arrival approached. The location right on the lake w/ wheelchair access to the dock was fantastic. We will definitely plan to stay here again. I would highly recommend this! Thank you Ron for making our stay wonderful.

Cozy, clean with great accessibility.
Ron met us at arrival and guided us though the house details. The property is beautifully maintained. The house was well stocked with the comforts of home. We have a son that uses a wheelchair and while the house isn’t technically “ADA”, it was spacious and had easy entry. We also appreciated the sidewalk down to the dock ramp- making transfers to the boat much easier than homes on the water where you have many stairs. The beds and sheets were very comfortable. My husband and I stayed with our 4 boys and my in-laws. Our family stayed in the bedrooms on either sides of the main bathroom — our boys stayed in one room but they wouldn’t have had to (king bed and used 2 cot beds). My in-laws stayed on the other side of the house where they had their own king bed and their own bathroom. We really enjoyed drinking coffee on the patio every morning. We also brought our dog and the backyard was great for fetch! The fish supply shed was convenient and well-stocked! We caught dozens of perch from the dock - we also tried catfishing but with no luck. I could go on and on about how great this place was! We can’t wait to return! Thanks, Ron & Sandy, for sharing this little slice of Grand with us!

Family vacation
First off, I want to say the host is most gracious and accommodating! We were met in the driveway by the host who gave us a grand tour of the property, explaining everything leaving no questions. The house is so accommodating we had three different families and four children with us, each room was equipped with king size beds for each. I have zero complaints. We were able to launch our boat down the road a ways and Park inside the boat dock for a whole trip. The kids were able to swim off the front of the dock and fish. I give this trip five stars all the way around. Thank you so much.!

From the fully stocked house to the fully stocked Zebco fishing shack, everything you could think of was already provided. Completely eliminated, "I wish we would have brought..."
