Amenities & Shared Spaces

Kitchen & Dining

You'll have everything you need to feed a crowd. The full kitchen includes a full-size refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and garbage disposal - plus a coffee maker, blender, toaster, and stand mixer for the bakers in the group. Cookware ranges from saucepans and frying pans to a full roasting pan and cookie sheets. Plates, mugs, glasses, and utensils are stocked per guest. A knife block, cutting boards, and grilling utensils round out a kitchen that's genuinely ready to use.

Technology

Five smart TVs are spread across the home - a 50-inch in the living room, a 50-inch in the upper left bedroom, and three additional sets in the lower-level bedrooms. All TVs support streaming apps. Simply log into your own accounts at check-in and the TVs automatically reset and log you out at checkout. No extra steps needed.

Laundry

A stackable washer and dryer are available in the home - perfect for longer stays or post-lake-day loads.

Outdoor

The propane grill is stocked, covered, and ready to fire up. The hot tub is the crown jewel of the outdoor experience here - whether you're soaking under the stars after a long day or starting a slow morning before the rest of the crew wakes up. A throw blanket on every couch means the relaxation doesn't stop when you come inside either.

Community Amenities

The Safari Lodge is part of a larger resort community with some genuinely impressive shared perks. Two pools are available for guest use during your stay - one at Walker's Cay Drive and one at Cedar Glen Road (which also features a splash pad, great for little ones). Pool hours run 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. beginning May 11, and a pool access code will be provided at booking. Glass and loud music are not permitted at the pools per community rules.

Guests also enjoy access to the back 9 holes of golf within Tan Tara Estates - no golf cart is included, but standard course rules apply to keep the greens in great shape.

Check-in is self-serve with smart lock. No alarm to deal with - just arrive, type in the code, and settle in. Your host is available if questions come up during your stay but otherwise gives you full privacy to enjoy the property.

Parking fits up to 4 vehicles in the driveway. Note the driveway is narrow, so take it slowly pulling in. Additional parking is available near the pool, about 200 feet from the house.

Important navigation note: Guests must use the Margaritaville entrance - not the Keystone entrance - especially during summer evenings and weekends when the gated entrance may be closed. From KK Hwy, take the Margaritaville entrance, turn right at your first opportunity, follow Duenke Dr. to the three-way stop, turn left on Staniel Cay Dr., then left onto Bent Shadow Lane. GPS can be unreliable here - follow these directions closely.

Osage Beach puts you right in the heart of Lake of the Ozarks country - where lake life, live music, and lakeside dining are all within a short drive. Whether your group wants to boat, wine taste, mini golf, or just find a great table with a water view, it's all close by.

▸ Bagnell Dam Strip: 13 miles (18 min) - Live music, restaurants, shopping, arcades
▸ Big Surf Waterpark: 6.5 miles (11 min) - Water park rides and family fun
▸ Red Head Yacht Club: 3.6 mile (8 min) - Boating, fishing, swimming and dining
▸ Ozarks Amphitheater: 10 miles (15 min) - Outdoor concerts and live music venue
▸ Margaritaville Resort: 1.4 miles (5 min) - Lakeside pool bar with views
▸ Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf: 3.6 miles (8 min) - Two themed mini-golf courses
▸ Jeffery's Prime Rib and Lobster: 2.4 miles (5 min) - Top-tier lakeside fine dining since the 1980s, fresh seafood, deck over the water at Horseshoe Bend
▸ The Oaks Golf Course at Margaritaville: 1.7 miles (4 min)

From the hot tub to the golf course to the pool splash pad down the road, The Safari Lodge gives your group a genuine Ozarks basecamp - the kind of place you'll find yourself booking again next summer.
