Our family of 14 has been coming to Dogwood Acres every summer for about 10 years now. We love returning here. It is a quaint, family owned resort that has everything a family could desire while on vacation. We always bring our boat, but they have boats to rent also. They have boat dock slips to rent for a nominal fee. We rented two paddle boats for two hours and had a ball. There’s plenty of room in the front yard/driveway to play outdoor games, which we bring every year, such as beanbag toss and ladder ball. The cabins come fully furnished, with kitchen utensils, plates, pots and pans etc. just bring your own towels. Lee and Jenny are the sweetest couple, very accommodating and helpful with any requests. If you’re lucky, you’ll even get to meet Lee’s father, who lives on the property and hear some of his life stories. All in all, this place is very relaxing, quiet, and family-friendly.…
This is our 21st annual family vacation at the Ozarks. Our family found this gem about 9-10 years ago and this is place is our favorite (from the past 4 other resorts). It is a quiet, quaint, family-owned resort with everything you should need. We stay 7 days and enjoy the fishing off the docks, the swim dock (we sunbath and lay on rafts in the buoyed off area), spend time in the indoor pool/hottub, and play outdoor games (we bring the games) in the center of the resort. Jen and Lee, the owners are super nice and will bend over backwards to see that your stay is comfortable. The cabins are fully stocked with kitchen items and linens are provided. We bring our own towels/ beach towels and toiletries. I asked Jen about getting a clothesline in our cabin porch for our wet towels, and within 30minutes, ta-da, a clothes line appears!! My sisters family( 2 cabins down for ours) included their 40 pound dog, which loved the water and the fresh air! They have several rental boats to chose from on site, along with a boat gas dock. (we bring our own boat). Love doing my laundry there too! The local grocery store (Woods) is about a 9 minute drive from our cabins. Love this place!!…
This resort is awesome! We love our cabin. It’s spacious and clean. Lee and Jenny are amazing owners! The boats they rent out are fantastic and well priced. Best fishing experience our daughter has ever had. The wildlife is amazing! We’ve seen herons, deer, squirrels, and more! It is perfect for family reunions, group vacations, or just a family getaway!
The owners, Lee & Jen are so welcoming and helpful. The indoor pool, hot tub, small game room and swim docks kept my kids busy. We got lots of crappie off the lighted fishing dock. They have a library of movies you can borrow from in the office. The cabins are on the vintage side but very clean and just perfect for our family. We're there for the water and not luxury accommodations with mints on the pillow that you pay a ton for. The kitchens were very well stocked. My little girl loved picking out DVDs and watching them on the DVD player in the cabin while we fished at night. I'd say within 15 minutes drive time you can be at three different lakefront bar and grills with swimming beaches. Our favorite, by far, and the closest, is Franky & Louie's which is just a minute or two by water. We liked that they sold minnows and ice so we didn't have to leave the resort as much. The have boat, kayak and stand up paddle board rentals but we didn't take advantage of those this trip. I have stayed at resorts all over the LOZ and the owners here were by far the most down-to-earth and friendly I have come across. I would definitely return.…
First time at the Lake of the Ozarks and we picked a great place to stay. Lee and Jen were fantastic hosts, we have two teenage boys and they loved it here as well, the indoor pool and hot tug was nice to enjoy, the views were fantastic, this is the place to stay when you are down here!!
