About the Retreat:
Hidden Falls is a very private retreat perfect for friends, family reunions, church groups, corporate retreats, and even small weddings!

The entire retreat sits 6/10th of a mile from the road, and is nestled on over 100 private acres prime for fishing or exploring!

The property includes:
- Main Home
- (2) one-bedroom cabins (with kitchenette, full bathroom, screend in patio)
- Heated Salt Water pool with giant slide and Hot Tub Spa: can be heated upon request for $100/day
- Activity Center / Gymnasium
- Private Dock!
- Over 100 private acres just for you

The main house is a gorgeous 5600 Sq.ft 6 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home, designed with native field stone, granite, and cedar wood from the surrounding area. Total highspeed internet has been set up in the main home to handle all your devices, and a cell phone signal booster has been added for extra reception!

Each room has a wifi smart TV with all the apps built in. Green tea infused mattress, anti-allergen and anti-bacterial mattress protectors, large closets, and modern décor.

The Master bedroom boasts a large King bed, pull-out couch with 2 twin mattresses for even more areas for people to sleep. And a large beautiful private deck with stunning views of the Ozark hills, and Table Rock lake. This is the perfect spot for sun set pictures of the entire family!

There is an oversized Bunk room which features very comfortable sleeping for up to 12 children or adults. The Bunks themselves are a combination of twins and fulls. This room is perfect for all the grandkids and cousins!

The incredible dining room will transport you back in time to 1930’s which is when the original log cabin was built. With comfortable seating for more than 24, this is where the memories are made!

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare, cook, and serve all your family or holiday meals. But don’t worry—all dishes are kid friendly and won’t break.

The extended living room has a 75” Smart TV, oversized couch and large floor, perfect for those movie nights to end a long day. There is a separate game table area perfect for card and board games.

There are two back patios, one out doors with all seasons patio furniture, conveniently located next to the large propane grill for all those cook outs. The second patio is screened in, and has multiple seating options and a Ping Pong table, and other games to enjoy some shady afternoons, and bug free nights!

The property also features a large, well maintained and cleaned, 30+ feet long private SALTWATER pool. If you haven’t swam in a saltwater pool before – it absolutely makes a difference, TREAT YO SELF.

The property also has a 3200 SQ ft building which is set up for Full Court basketball, Pickleball, corn hole (bean bag), and whatever other games your family invents!
Finally- the best part. Walk down the wooded pathway to a private dock where you can park your boat, or cast a line! Children (and even over-zealous adults) of all ages are nearly guaranteed to catch a blue gill, sun fish or even small crappie right off the dock! Also on the dock for your enjoyment are kids Kayaks, water trampolene, giant floating lily pad, and more to enjoy all the lake has to offer.

This part of the water is incredibly secluded and private, no other docks in sight! There is a public boat lunch just 10 min drive away. Plus, the added bonus of a long private cove right next to the dock, so you don’t have to worry about large boats knocking the kids or coolers over as they play.

Just 25 min. to Silver Dollar City, and 10 min to grocery stores and restaurants, Hidden Falls is the get away that blends privacy but being close enough to all the attractions Branson can provide!

We look forward to turning your vacation, into a lifetime of memories.

Such a Magical Spot
We have a group of 16 adults and 16 kids that have done a cabin weekend every fall for ten years. This spot is the first one we’re excited to return to again. We adored the pool, lake, and fire pit immensely! The kitchen was well stocked. The large dining table was perfect. We watched an afternoon storm from the screened porch. We all had plenty of room!! Sara was very responsive to any issues. I will note that the walk to the lake is a little treacherous. And the screened porch needed some cleaning TLC. It wasn’t quite as clean and idyllic as I hoped. Nothing major though. We will be back!!

Spectacular wedding weekend!
We held a small family wedding for my daughter and it was perfect! The backyard was beautiful for the ceremony, we used both levels for seating. The dining area held our 32 guests without a problem; the fireplace wall is gorgeous! The rooms were clean and beautifully decorated, and had plenty of pillows and blankets. The newlyweds appreciated staying in one of the separate cabins which were also well appointed! After our morning wedding and brunch, everyone changed and spent the rest of the day on the lake, in the pool, and at the activity center. There were plenty of lake toys, pool seating and lounging spots, and play equipment in the activity center. Sara was super responsive and helpful! Destony and Jessica made sure the ceremony area was ready for the big day, and made sure we had everything we needed. Internet and phone service are spotty, but did not keep us from communicating when we needed to. This is a beautiful, rustic, lake compound; perfect for large groups!

Family Reunion/Vacation
Wonderful vacation!! Property has plenty of room for our large family including our adult children and grandchildren. Spacious sleeping rooms, plenty of bathrooms, and activities for all ages. The pool, activity center and dock are each wonderful but to have all three at one location is amazing. Best of all a large dining room where all 25 of us could enjoy dinner together. Wonderful hosts always available if needed. This was our second summer here and it was even better than last year which was terrific also. Thank-you Sara!!!!!

Fabulous Stay
This property has something for everyone, fishing, swimming, games, beautiful scenery, and the sounds of nature! The house is large, so silence and solitude are possible even when the kids are having a blast playing games in the family room. Mother Nature threw a few hiccups in our direction. Sara was quick to response and remedied the situations remotely, she's simply amazing. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Family Reunion - perfect spot for all ages
We had a family reunion with 32 people 4th of July week. This house was the perfect spot for all of us. We had family from KC area, Bevada, Utah and Virginia. We loved the seclusion and beautiful scenery. It was great to have so many amenities for everyone! We loved the pool area. It was a great gathering place with lots of chairs and comfortable seating under nice shaded canopy area. After past experience we prefer our own private pool area on site. We really enjoyed the gym area with basketball, corn hole and pickleball (we taped off our own lines so it’s not official size but still so fun!) we loved the video games and long kitchen table to play card games. Kitchen area is nice and the 2 refrigerators was a plus. We made all our meals there. The 2 families staying in the 2 cabins really enjoyed their space. The beds were comfortable and the bunk room was perfect for all the cousins. The dock is down a pretty trail and we had fun using the kayaks and paddleboat. Some of the teens liked their time own time kayaking and fishing (bring your own gear). The owners are really helpful and quick to respond. Since we had a couple big thunderstorms we received texts to make sure we were all safe and all was well. She kept us in the loop with the firework show in a nearby town but canceled due to storms. The check in/out process was easy. We did the James outfitter tube which was nearby in Galena. Water was clean and great temp.I’d love to just hit repeat on this reunion next time.

Family Reunion Paradise
This was our second stay at Hidden Falls. We loved it so much the first time we brought our entire family (31 people) back for another awesome family reunion. This place has something for everyone. The inground pool and slide were a BIG hit on the hot summer days. From the private dock we fished, kayaked, went paddle boating, swam and just played in the water. The kids also loved playing basketball, pickleball and flying paper airplanes in the big Activity Center. The big bunkroom accommodated lots of cousins and the classic video games were also a big hit. The large dining room provided space for the whole crew to sit down and enjoy meals together. And the two cabins gave just enough separation for families that wanted a quieter evening. Of all the vacation places we've rented Sara is the best host we've ever had. She is thoughtful, helpful and very responsive. If you like the idea of a private location near Table Rock Lake for a large gathering, Hidden Falls can't be beat!

Amazing property and owners!
We had a lovey stay at this property. We had our family stay for a week with 9 adults and 6 kids and had the greatest time! The kids loved fishing off the dock and while kayaking and the pool was a huge hit as well. The house itself is huge and has tons of room for sleeping and places to get away by yourself for a bit of downtime. Most impressive were the owners though. Sara checked it early and often and answered any questions we had. Great property and great week!

Extended Family Getaway
To start with, Sara was a fantastic host and was there for us along the whole process - from booking to checking out. We did not have any needs nor did we want for anything that the property did not aleady have. We had a group of about 27, from ages 2 to 76, and everyone had an incredible experience and stay. This is a place to truly get away. We considered leaving one night to go to Branson since it was close by, but no one ended up wanting to leave Hidden Falls. Kids had more than enough to do with the heated pool, activity center, ping pong, exploring, and the lake. Kayaking ended up being a favorite, the almost private cove that the dock is on was fantastic. Most everyone on the trip came to me at some point and commented that I had found the absolute perfect place to be. 100% would recommend and 100% would stay again. Thank you Sara, I feel like I know you now and thank you also for the help you gave me on my way out, everything was very much appreciated!

Fall foliage wedding perfection
We hoped for a prime Fall foliage wedding location and it was more than we could have asked for! Destony helped us find a perfect location up in a clearing in the woods and everything fell into place after that! Sara was very accommodating with all of our questions and ease of check-in. The house and cabins were perfect for us and our wedding party to stay in and everyone was amazed at the gem we found. We did the rehearsal dinner in the main dining room and reception in the Activity Center. Our only hiccup was when we first visited there was a crazy swarm of wasps around the master balcony and cabins but there was spray on site and an exterminator came out the next day and we didn’t see any after that. One other unforeseen change from our initial visit was there were simple stringed lights in the venue, but when we arrived they were not there and the chandelier light did not work so we had to opt for the fluorescent lights which were much brighter than we hoped for the reception. We only had about 55 people on property for the wedding and ceremony. I think if it was closer to the advertised max number for the property the venue would have needed bathrooms at the Activity Center and a much larger dumpster at the top of the drive to accommodate. We did have to take some trash with us since it would not all fit. Other than those few things, the venue was great, beautiful, and we had a weekend that we will not forget! We can’t say enough good things about Destony!

Blew our expectations for our retreat :)
I just have to begin by expressing how much we loved our stay - and yes, we're definitely coming back for more! The location completely blew us away, far surpassing our expectations based on the photos. The main house was incredibly spacious and impressively well-prepared for our needs, with an abundance of linens, toilet paper, paper towels, bug spray, flashlights, first aid kits, and more. We were part of a group of 32, and our time there was an absolute blast. The range of activities available brought us all closer together, from kayaking at the waterfront to exploring the enchanting waterfall trail and enjoying the activity center's amenities like basketball. Speaking of space, there was more than enough room for all our group activities, and mealtimes were a breeze, comfortably accommodating all 32 of us without any hassle. The hosts were outstanding, helping us with all our questions in advance and ensuring we were well-prepared for an unforgettable trip. The cozy cabins, just a short stroll from the main house (less than a minute away), were the perfect complement to our stay. We can't wait to return for another fantastic experience!

I highly recommend this rental for any group!! From a single family, 4 or 5, families, or large groups of adults. House was unique and very functional. The layout was obviously thought out very well and the upgrades/additions added were exactly what was needed. All bedrooms were very nice, both clean and week stocked. Kitchen was a little small, but the huge master’s quarters made up for it. Thank you for allowing my group to enjoy this wonderful property and make memories we’ll never forget!!

Beautiful, Private, Fun, and Perfect
We stayed here for a few nights on our MO family vacation. We had a wide span of ages from toddlers to grandparents and everyone in between. The house accommodated all of us comfortably with room to spare. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and plenty of space to put all of our groceries. The property had plenty to keep us busy. We spent our days swimming in the pool and playing at the lake utilizing all the fun floatation toys, kayaks, and more. Even when we had a partially rainy day, we were able to stay entertained with the activity barn and the ping pong table inside the screened-in porch. Sara stayed in contact and was easy to reach if there was anything we needed. Thank you we had an amazing time at Hidden Falls.

Bachelor/Bachelorette Party
My fiancé and I get married in September and we wanted to take our wedding party and significant others on one last big party before we get married. It was the perfect location and so much to do. One of the mornings it was rainy so we all hung out in the activity center and played games. I would definitely rent this place again. The host was so great and very responsive. The pool was pretty messed up from the storms (no fault of the boats) so we were not able to use that but we took full advantage of the lake and had an amazing time.
