Amenities & Shared Spaces



Entertainment



The downstairs game room is where the fun gets loud. Challenge your crew to a round of ping pong, a shuffleboard showdown, or a game of darts - then collapse on the couch and stream something on the 42-inch TV. Kids' laughter echoing through this level is pretty much guaranteed.



Kitchen & Dining



The kitchen is stocked and ready for real cooking. You'll find a full suite of appliances including a dishwasher, full-size refrigerator with ice and water, stove, and microwave. Everything from a slow cooker and blender to a stand mixer, roasting pan, and knife block is ready for your group's chef. Dishes, glasses, and utensils are provided per guest count. Grilling utensils are also on hand for use with the propane grill just off the back deck.



Technology



Seven TVs are spread across the home - living room, both main-floor bedrooms, upstairs master, upper-level ensuite, lower-level ensuite, and the game room. Every TV is equipped with streaming capability so you can pick up right where you left off at home.



Laundry



Full-size washer and dryer are available on-site - a must-have for longer stays with a big group.



Outdoor



Step out back and fire up the propane grill (all burners working, cover and mat included) right off the kitchen deck. Walk down to the private dock for a morning of fishing or an afternoon swim in the lake. The setting is pure Ozarks - peaceful water, green hills, and that unhurried feeling you came here for.



Community Amenities



Guests have access to two community pools at Tan Tara Estates, each requiring a gate code that will be provided before your arrival. Pool hours run 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. beginning May 11, 2026. Guests also enjoy access to the back 9 holes of the Tan Tara golf course (no cart provided). No glass and no loud music at the pool areas per HOA rules.



Guest Access:

Check-in is completely self-serve via a smartlock. A backup lockbox is located on the left side of the front door, next to the bench. Your host is available throughout your stay but won't be underfoot - you'll have the home entirely to yourselves.



Parking is available for 2 vehicles in the paved driveway. The driveway is narrow, so take it slow. For larger groups with additional vehicles, overflow parking is available at the community pool area at 151 Walkers Cay Dr, Osage Beach - guests can carpool down from there. No RV or boat trailer parking is available at Tan Tara.



Important arrival note: Guests must use the Margaritaville entrance (not the Keystone entrance) during summer evenings and weekends. The gated entrance closes in the evening. Directions from KK Hwy: Take the Margaritaville entrance, turn right, follow Duenke Dr. to the 3-way stop, turn left on Staniel Cay Dr., right on Channel Buoy Drive, then sharp corner onto Elbow Cay - the house is just at the bottom of the corner. Look for the hanging sign labeled 549 Elbow Cay below the street lamp. Note that GPS may not route accurately to the property, so follow these written directions carefully.



The Neighborhood:

Osage Beach puts you right in the heart of Lake of the Ozarks - where the water is always calling, the food is always good, and there's more to do than you'll fit into one trip. Here's what's nearby:



▸ Bagnell Dam Strip: 14 miles (20 min) - Live music, restaurants, shopping, arcades

▸ Big Surf Waterpark: 12 miles (6.6 min) - Water park rides and family fun
