    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.

    DOWNSTAIRS SITTING AREA (sleeps 1)
    There is a sleeper sofa in the sitting area by the downstairs kitchen which is suitable for 1 adult.

    Please note: Equani Lodge has a sister property, Anedodi which is 15 minutes' drive away and sleeps up to 18 people.

    Guest access
    Set on 11 acres of lake view land for your exclusive use, there is a large parking area with space for 15 cars. The pool is seasonal - open and heated from April through October.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Equani Lodge has a sister property, Anedodi which is only a 15 minute drive away. VRBO Listing #213735

A great house for our family reunion of 30 people! Ample space for everyone. We spent a ton of time in the pool and rented a boat from local marina for a day. Kitchen is well stocked with what you need, host was responsive, house was as described and we would definitely return!

Perfect Place for group to be under one roof!

So nice we stayed there twice! This huge home is perfect for active families who love to kick back in the pool, enjoy the marina and the lake nearby, make family style dinners, and play games or relax with a book. The bedrooms are beautiful and comfortable, and the bathrooms are nicer than the ones we have at our own homes!

Dream Wedding Weekend

This was the absolutely most beautiful property to host a family wedding. The views were stunning, property perfectly fit all our family and had places to accommodate every guest. Memories to last a lifetime! The only negatives were that for a wedding we wish the lawn had been mowed and fire pit was completely filled with ashes. We had to clean before having a fire.

Our stay was great. The house was beautiful inside and outside. My family loved the view from each room. The mountains and water were gorgeous. We only had one problem and that was some of the chairs at the dining table needed repairing. It appeared as if the host knew and didn’t inform us. Only two TV’s in the house which need to be updated they were to small for the size of the rooms. The view is beautiful but you need more TVs in a house of that size.This home was gorgeous and I would recommend to others. I can only imagine what it would look like in the spring and summer and can’t imagine when the leaves are changing.

Beautiful Views

Beautiful Views of the lake and woods! We stayed over a weekend with friends and family and had our daughter's wedding outside, the house is very nice, clean and spacious! There were a few issues upon arrival with not enough bedding and light bulbs missing but the housekeeper came right away and provided us with what was needed and the next day they replaced the bulbs that were missing. This is a great house to have friends and family get together for a vacation and we did love the view for the wedding! There were some issues with some of the tables, chairs, outdoor furniture & area for the wedding but we were told they would be getting these things fixed so you might check before you book your event that they have been rectified.

Fun for all ages

We stayed here for a family vacation---24 of us aged 1 1/2 through 82. The property offers so much: hiking across from the front door, swimming pool, enough house space for rainy day fun (which we had), bags tournament on the deck, bar fun poolside, and evening card games at the dining room table. One family brought their dirt bikes and ATVs, and they found a place to ride 25 minutes from the house. We also had a lake day and rented two pontoons from Tracy Marina. Another day, we canoed/kayaked on the Buffalo River, which was beautiful and fun! So, as you can see, this location/house offers so much to do on the grounds and in the area. We loved our stay, but I would be remiss if I did not include a few issues. The house needs some upgrades. During a storm, the windows in the front room leaked so much water that we all grabbed bath towels to try and keep it from running onto the floor. Upon further review, the inside wood was rotting, and some ants were found, which means this has been a problem for a while. One of our families had to put a bowl by the window in their bedroom due to a water leak through the window due to the storm. The dishwasher also leaked water, pouring out from the side. The kitchen sink is loose from its base, and a few nuts are missing from the back of the bolts on the balcony. We informed the manager of the issues and hope they get those fixed. So, besides those issues, we had a fun and memorable trip!

Any very minor issues that came up ( chirping smoke detector and turning off pool heater) taken care of immediately.as far as cleanliness I gave a 4 but probably more deserving of 4.8. Just a few things missed with the broom nothing major.Kitchen is stocked with plates, pots and pans everything you could possibly need and more!Everyone and everything was perfect! Shout out to Tracey Ferry Marina also polite helpful and knowledgeable staff!
