Jerry & Candy always take good care of us. We love the peaceful setting, and the beach area. We have already booked our stay for next year!

Second time we've stayed at Crappie Cottage and loved it. Clean, comfortable & a great location!

Great place.

Our stay at the lake house was amazing. Not one detail out of place to make our time spent comfortable. A location where you can be secluded from life, or venture off and be part of all the water fun. So many options around us. My kids did everything….floats, kayaks, swimming, finding rocks, enjoying the deck, making forts outside, and more. The kitchen was amazingly well stocked…we liked the knife set so much we bought one for our own home. Would return for another stay. A true vacation gem. Thank you for having us. Your kindness was refreshing.

The owners had everything you would ever need. Property was very clean. So many different seating areas and decks. Two docks. One to swim off of and one to fish. Very private and secluded. Safe for our young ones to just swim and be adventuresome. Great grill and kitchen had all dishes and pots needed. Beautiful landscaping. There was very steep drive but all of us made it fine. Easy walking to different docks snd decks. We will stay here again. In fact we wanted to stay next year same time but already was booked. This is how it should be snd not very many owners take such pride and attention to detail. Worth every penny.

Enjoyed this beautiful private cottage. Perfect place to spend a week with my daughter, son and his girlfriend. Especially enjoyed the swim dock and kayaking. Our dog had a great time as well. Hope to be back again next year. Thank you Jerry and Candy!

Crappie Cottage was everything my family and I were looking for. As other reviews have mentioned, nearly every room in the house has a view of the lake and everything you need for your stay. Jerry and Candy were great hosts and responded quickly to a question I had the first night. My sons and I spent many hours fishing off the boat dock and were able to catch many fish over the course of the week. The swimming dock is an added bonus and quickly became my kids' favorite afternoon activity. All in all, the property is in an awesome spot, the hosts are great and include many things that others don't (such as kayaks, fishing gear, lifejackets, etc.), and my wife and I agreed that it was one of the best vacations we've taken in a long time. Don't hesitate!

The Crappie Cottage was amazing! More than enough room for the six of us and very well appointed. Loved the big property and docks, no big stair cases to access the water was a plus. The host, Jerry, was a terrific gentleman who made sure we had all we needed and was great to chat with. He also was responsible for rescuing a fishing rod that had slipped off the dock(without even being asked!), what a great guy! To sum up, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

The best part of the house is that it is as about the lake. All rooms are lake facing with either windows or patio doors. A huge deck to enjoy and un like other homes, lots of property. Everything worked and was in good repair. Jerry & Candy were hospitable hosts.

We came to Crappie Cottage for a relaxing get-away in early November. We did not come for the busy season intentionally and found the location peaceful and exactly what we were looking for. Cottage was cozy and well equipped, minus washer and dryer. Beautiful views and great decks. We did not need much assistance from owners, but what communication we did have was prompt and helpful. Driveway is steep, but manageable. We brought our dog and were able to find a walking path and dog park nearby. We enjoyed the area sites and would recommend Ha Ha Tonka Castle ruins and the state park in Camdenton. We enjoyed many restaurants, but favorites include Baxters, Wobbly Boots (best butter cake), Pappos, JB Hooks (happy hour 3-8 with live music), and the humongous cinnamon roll at Stewart’s. We would definitely recommend this place for a fall getaway and would think it would also be great in the summer months for families and couples.

We loved the location and the layout of the space. The landscaping was very nice and well cared for. The location was very quiet and private. We work a lot, and this was a great space to relax and still get some work done ! One comment for consideration. You need a set knives. Also for a fall or spring visit a propane fire table would be very appealing, and would be a bonus to entice us back

First time using Verbo. The property that we stayed at was awesome. The property owner/management were very helpful. We have one slight issue outside of their property and they still helped us with it. I look forward to staying here again in the near future. Morgan family

Awesome property! Nice and secluded on the lake. The driveway is a little steep, not recommend if your are pulling a boat. Boat ramp close. Owners were very nice and easy to work with. Definitely would come back for another stay!

Property was well maintained with quality equipment. Owners were very nice. The property has a deck overlooking a cove, with two decks, one which has the owners boats and another which you can swim/fish off of. They have three kayaks, with life jackets, that you can use. Our son fished off of the dock everyday and caught a lot of large mouth bass. They had a good Weber grill that was very clean, and provided charcoal and a chimney. We barbequed two nights for dinner. The couch in the living room folds out into a bed. We didn't use it but it is a nice option. The owners live on the property, but their house is secluded and we very rarely saw them. They have an annex in their basement that you can rent for $75/night. Our daughter and her husband stayed there 4 nights. It too is very secluded from the owners. A gravel drive connects it to the cabin. The only issues we had were that there was no full sized oven, they had a convection oven/microwave. We like to bake. The drive down to the cottage is very steep. It rained every day we were there, for a week, and the drive could be challenging. Eventually you get the hang of it. Our family had a very enjoyable stay. It was very quiet and relaxing. Too bad the Blues lost both games while we were there.

Our oldest dog was recently diagnosed with cancer, and we wanted to take a small vacation with her and her sister while she is still feeling well. It was a short but very pleasant stay. Loved it, and so did my husband and pups!

Though the temps were not what we hoped we had a great time. There was more than enough necessities in the house for a comfortable stay. The only things missing were a cutting board and steak knives (we enjoy grilling and cooking), but we had no problem managing. The driveway is rather steep with sharp turns, so I would not suggest a trailer or any sort, or a sporty car that is low to the ground. In the end we would suggest this place all day long, and actually started planning our next visit.

My family and I were looking for a long weekend getaway, and this was perfect! The cottage itself isn't huge, but it was just what our family of 4 needed. There were giant windows and glass doors in the kitchen/family room area, with a full porch overlooking the lake. It is a beautiful spot to watch the sunrise over the lake. The availability of the kayaks, life jackets, and swim dock (or fishing dock in our case) was excellent too. Another nice surprise was the cabinet full of DVDs, books, and a few board games. The driveway is pretty steep and made us a little nervous the first time, especially since we arrived after dark. But we got used to it. All in all, we loved our time here and hope to come back again!
