There’s only one Highland Retreat… and you’ve found it! Welcome to the ultimate laidback-meets-luxury retreat for up to 24 guests in Branson.
The magic starts with the view: magnificent vistas of Table Rock Lake from two sprawling decks, plus comfy outdoor living and dining areas for taking in the view.
Just add burgers from the gas grill, a coffee from the Keurig, or a glass of wine from one of Branson’s vineyards.
Next, the perks: your own private, indoor pool and spa. Yep, you read right—an indoor pool you don’t have to share with someone else’s kids!
If your kids do want to make new friends, you also have access to the neighborhood outdoor swimming pool (with waterslide) a short walk away, along with a splash pad and pickleball court. The neighborhood indoor swimming pool is just two streets over.
Then there’s the interior design: inspired by our love of Scotland and a vision of a Modern Castle on the banks of the lake in the Ozark highlands. 😍
And lastly, that indescribable “something.” Our guest Austin sums it up well: “Words don’t describe how relaxing this place is.”
All we know is... the worries you bring to Highland Retreat don’t stick around for long.
Get comfy in one of 6 bedrooms, each with a king bed and its own en-suite bath.
Designed for families, 4 of the 6 bedrooms have both king-size beds and luxury sofa beds for the kiddos or teens. Or pile in with friends to relive your slumber party days.
On a rainy day (or just a relaxing one), queue up a movie in the home theater or play a round of pool. The Family Room also has 2 more sofa beds to round out the sleeping space.
From the convenience of a washer/dryer to baby items and board games, every detail is curated for a cut-above vacation experience.

OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
Only 2 minutes to Table Rock Lake and 10 minutes to the Strip, plus no more than 25 minutes from practically anywhere else you want to go in the Branson area, this vacation home is the perfect base to chill out at during your vacation.
Our community of Branson Cove is right off Hwy. 265, and next to the State Park Marina, giving you easy access to the traffic relief routes to move about the Branson area easily.
------------
SWIMMING POOLS, PLAYGROUND, PICKLEBALL COURT, PATH TO LAKE
Yes, plural is correct -- there are two pools in the neighborhood that you have access to! Both the heated indoor pool and the outdoor swimming pool are a quick walk from the front door, plus the outdoor pool has a super fun water slide and a kids splash area.
The kiddo's playground and the pickleball court are next to the outdoor pool.
The path to the lake is at the bottom corner of the neighborhood. The trailhead is a little steep, but then it's an easy downhill trek to a quiet cove you may splash, wade, and fish in.
You could not be in a more perfect spot for your vacation! See the neighborhood photo with locations marked, and how close you are to all the amenities!

The property was clean and accurately represented in photos. The surroundings were well maintained and felt safe. The community pool was easily accessible and not crowded. My favorite amenity of the home was having a bathroom in each bedroom. A main floor “house bathroom” would have been ideal, but there is one downstairs which is helpful if you’re using the pool. There were plenty of dishes available to prepare and enjoy meals. Provisions such as trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper were very convenient upon arrival. Only suggestion for improvement would be an outdoor TV and accessible electrical outlet on the deck. The hosts were very attentive and have gone through a lot of effort to provide travelers with information in an easy access travel guide. We used it several time throughout our stay for finding nearby restaurants and grocery. It was a very peaceful and relaxing vacation. We would come again.

Our family of 16 loved everything about this house. The location was great. The view of the lake from 2 decks was beautiful. We loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. The sofa sleepers in 4 of the 6 bedrooms worked wonderfully for the families with little children. The theater room with 2 sofa sleepers was a hit for our older grandchildren. We all loved our own indoor pool and hot tub. The kitchen was full of all the things we needed. We appreciated having 2 washers and dryers. The communication with Nat and Tyann was outstanding! Can't say enough positive things about this house that was our home for 5 days!

Great place.
Everything you need is about 10 to 15 minutes away. Walmart, target, grocery stores, etc.
House was equipped with everything we needed. Fully equipped with the basics which made for an easy first night before we hit the stores the next morning for supplies.
Rooms are spacious. Bathrooms are clean. Towels and bedding were a little stained but theyre all white so i know how that goes.
Pool was great. Had a litfle problem with the heating but it was fixed right away.
Overall, great experience. Great place to stay. View was amazing as well. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing Branson Getaway
Our family had an AMAZING time in Branson in this home. Absolutely every moment was enjoyed by everyone. The indoor pool and hot tub made for water fun that was enjoyed by everyone. The home theater was a hit every night as the family watched movies before bedtime. Everyone loved the large bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The views from the back decks were amazing and the community pool and pickle ball courts were a big hit as well. The central location to everything Branson was a huge plus. Highly recommended for your next Branson Getaway.

We had a great time here. The view is gorgeous. The house is new and clean. We all enjoyed being able to sit down for meals together - all 18 of us, in the house or on the deck. We like it that the rooms have their own bathrooms. Our grandkids love the indoor pools, and the theatre. Great to have the pool table in the rec area. Would be nice to have a little more parking space in front of the house. However, that is not a game changer. Highly recommend.
