The Bedrooms:
Luxuriously appointed bedrooms are all different from one another, each is influenced by one of the beautiful local birds of the Ozarks. There are 7 bedrooms and a nursery, with a variety of room configurations, some with ensuite bathrooms, balconies, terraces, and all (but one) with a stunning lake view.
These are the lodge's sleeping areas:
CARDINAL (sleeps 2-3)
The only bedroom in the Upper East Wing of the lodge, the master bedroom has a King Bed, one Single Bed, balcony with table, chairs, and a stunning lake view. The Master bathroom is en suite, which has a freestanding egg bath complete with lake view, walk-in rainfall shower, twin sinks, and a walk-in wardrobe.
BLUE JAY (sleeps 2-4)
Walk across to the Upper West Wing of the lodge, to the Blue Jay Master bedroom with a King Bed, 2 Single Beds, and French doors leading to the large deck with a panoramic lake view. The Bathroom is next door, and shared with the Goldfinch Room. It has a walk-in shower, single sink, and lake view window.
GOLDFINCH (sleeps 2-4)
This room is adjoining the Blue Jay Room above so would work well for families that wis to be close together. Two Queen Canopy beds make this an elegant room for couples or children to share. This is the only bedroom which does not have a lake view, but it has a lovely view over the garden.
BALD EAGLE (sleeps 2-4)
Now we take a trip downstairs to the Lower West Wing of the lodge. The bald eagle room has a striking monochromatic color scheme, a window with a Lake View, a King bed and 2 Single Beds. It connects to a large bathroom with bathtub/shower and twin sinks. The bathroom is also shared by the Bluebird Room which is next door.
BLUEBIRD (sleeps 2)
The pretty iridescent blue tones of this room make this one a favorite. It has a great lake view, and a King bed so it is ideal for couples.
PELIATED WOODPECKER (sleeps 2)
Walk across to the Lower West Wing of the lodge, and the Peliated Woodpecker Room is great for those who wish to be in the heart of the action. With the downstairs kitchen on one side, and the Games Room on the other, and a door leading to the lower deck and swimming pool, there is always something to do. The elegant iron canopy Queen bed makes it a romantic choice for couples. It is also closest to the nursery - so would be good for parents. The Peliated Woodpecker Room shares a bathroom with the Nursery and games room. The bathroom has a large walk-in rainfall shower and twin sinks.
ORIOLE (nursery sleeps 1-2)
A whimsical room with a full size crib, toy chest and a small sofabed, perfectly designed for our younger guests.
HUMMINGBIRD (sleeps 4-6)
The largest room in the house, with its own ensuite bathroom complete with twin rainfall shower, and twin sinks. There is a King Bed, bunk beds with one Full Bed and one Single Bed, plus a Queen sofabed. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and pool area.
GAMES ROOM (sleeps 2-4)
The Games Room provides a fun setting with ample seating, large flatscreen TV for watching movies, and a stone fireplace. It also has a Queen sofabed, two Single sofabeds, and blackout curtains so it works very well as an extra bedroom. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and grass area. The bathroom is just a few steps away and has a large rainfall shower and twin sinks.
