Location! Location! Location!

The Ozark Mountains, water skiing, jet skiing, hiking, fishing, and even scuba diving are just some reasons to visit Table Rock.

Located in Shell Knob, Missouri, on what is known to be the quiet side of Table Rock is the expansive Shell Knob Bridge, a beautiful design where form and function collide.

One of three bridges spanning this 43,100-acre lake, the Shell Knob Bridge provides access to both sides of the lake. If you have ever mapped your way around Table Rock, you know that the distance from one place to the next can prohibit a trip. A little-known fact is that it has more shoreline than California.

Voted #1 Lake in America by "Travelers World Wide."

Built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1958, the lake is overseen and managed by the Corps and is a beautiful body of water carefully protected by their governance. As a result, vacation homes are prohibited from renting their docks or slips.

While we understand that the prohibition on vacation homes renting their docks or slips may be disappointing, we believe we offer the next best option. Our vacation home is strategically located, providing easy access to all the lake fun. This ensures that you're making a great choice by considering our vacation home, and you can relax knowing that everything is within reach.

We direct our guests to consider parking their boats at our home and using public access, which is available just two blocks away from the house and across the bridge.

Need a boat? Contact Campbell Point Marina, located within 4 miles of the home, or Kings River Marina, a short drive away, and explore the option of renting a boat.

Be sure to make those arrangements before your stay.
