I want to thank you on behalf of the four couples that spent five
wonderful days at your beautiful log home. Over the past 25 years that we
have been coming to "the Lake" we have had the good fortune to stay in some
nice places and meet some great people. This year was the best yet. Not
only is your place beautifully maintained but the views from the house and
the deck were superb. Add to that the fact that we were away from the
normal noise and traffic that you can find on the lake and you have the
makings for a perfect getaway. If this weren't enough your hospitality and
willingness to make sure that everything went well were an added bonus.
Thank you again for a great time and we look forward to spending time in
that new four bedroom house that you are starting!

Kevin and Karen, my wife and I and our guests had a wonderful time at
Poco Risco. The home was beautiful and as well equiped as our own home. It
was well worth the drive and expense. If anyone is ever looking for a
relaxing weekend at the lake, without all the busy action on the water in
the Osage area, this is perfect. Waters as calm as a river and a view
around every corner. We will no doubt be back.

Dear Kevin and Karen,
We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay AGAIN! Everyone in
our family raved about our last vacation with you a few years ago and
vowed that we would all meet there again. It's a nice midpoint for the
families traveling from the east and west to meet. We love the fact that
the log homes are somewhat secluded and very private, the homes are very
clean and well maintained and the views are beautiful! We had people from
age 6 to 78 and everyone enjoyed the fishing, swimming, boating and just
lounging around. It was nice to know that you were there if we needed you,
but you respected our privacy and we appreciated that very much. We are
hoping that we can all make it back for a spectacular vacation for the
third time! Thanks again for everything.

relaxed, but not so far that we couldn't find some activity if we looked
for it.

The water is clear and beautiful and goes on forever! Kevin and Karen are
very kind and always around to help out. Our boat broke down mid week, and
they towed us in. This is a great family place to be, and we are looking

Florida in August but after having such a great time at the Little Niangua
getaway we just had to come back. Kevin is very helpful and always
available. He helped us with the boats and also helped us back out a boat
and trailer from the driveway when we did NOT pay attention to the no
turnaround sign. Sorry about that :) Anyway we had an awesome trip and
never left the house by car. We took the boats to HA HA TONKA and the rest
of the time we stayed near our dock. The area is so calm which was perfect
for a large group with many small children. Thanks again.

Our family rented the Little Niangua Getaway cabin for our vacation first
of November, 2003. It was very convenient to be near family in Camdenton.
The accomodations were perfect. We were all very pleased with our stay and

my daugther found your places and looked as if they might be large enough
to accommodate our family. As it was they were and lovely places, we were
very comfortable and had plenty of space and good thing because it rained
all weekend and we only were able to get into the lake one afternoon. We
still had a great time and are checking with the whole crew to see if they
all want to come back next year. We will be in touch. Thank you.

Hi!
We had a wonderful and relaxing time while staying in the Little Niangua
Home. We were all comfortable and enjoyed the convience of having our boat
and swim area just of few stairs away. The hammocks are great, too!
From on 2003-08-19 06:35:20:
We (my husband, myself and our two children ages 10 and 5) stayed in
the new home on lot 7 in late July 2003. We had an absolutely fabulous
time. The weather was warm, but not too hot. The lake is clean and the
water refreshing. The house is unbelievable - beautiful inside and out. We
had such a great time that we have already booked a repeat trip for next
year which is something we have never done before!
Staying in a Poco Risco home was one of the best vacation decisions we've
made. If you stay in one of Kevin's homes be sure to check out Ha Ha Tonka
State Park, jumping from the "cliffs" (you'll have to ask someone where
they are) and The Fish for both lunch and dinner.

Kevin,
I found your Little Niangua Getaway Home on your website and booked a
week-long vacation for 5 couples and our children in the hopes that the
pictures weren't misleading. To say we were all a little nervous upon
arrival is an understatement, myself especially, as everyone had trusted
my judgement. We were more than happy with the accomodations which met and
exceeded our expectations. Unlike most vacations, we had the comfort of
home in a vacation-like atmosphere. It was like living on the lake. The
house was equipped as promised and once we settled in, we never had to run
back to town. We prepared all meals at the cabin and had plenty to do on
the lake to keep us going. I only hope the walk up the stairs from the
dock helped me burn some of the weight I put on eating!! An extra thanks
for returning with a new blender at 10:00 pm on the first night of our
stay-that was really going out of your way. You will definitely see us
again and hopefully others who we have eagerly recommended.
Thanks,

better. We plan to come back again. Next year our family reunion is at
Windermere Baptist Camp (close to you), so we may try to tack on a few
extra days with you during that vacation. It sounds like our friends, the
Ericksons, who stayed with us are considering a trip back too, as well as
other friends from here in Colorado who are looking for a great spot.
We'll keep on passing your name around!
Thanks and we hope to see you again.

Hi Kevin,
We made it home alright. We just wanted to thank you for everything; we
had a great time! It was the first year i didn't hear dad complain about
the rough water. We will never stay on any other side of the lake again,
it was beautiful! We'll see you again next year.

Hi, Kevin.
Thanks for a great week!! Our family had a wonderful time. The log house
was beautiful & so comfortable. The area was just what we wanted--quiet &
peaceful. It was the perfect setting. We can't wait to come back!!!! We
were hoping to see you before we left. Hope the house was okay. We cleaned
before we left. Let me know about the deposit. How soon do we have to let
you know about next year? When do the reservations start?
Thanks again! It was really a fantastic week!

Dear Kevin,
Our son, daughter-in-law, and their two daughters invited us to go on
vacation with them to your beautiful log home. We had a wonderful time.
What a gorgeous view we had of the lake, and the castle across the water
was an enjoyable attraction to see. You were so gracious and everything in
the home was in good working order. We had a marvelous vacation. We hope
to return again in the near future.

I am writing this for anyone who may find themselves in a similar
situation. We needed a vacation, wanted to do something new, someplace
new. My wife used the internet to search for vacation cabin rentals within
a 10-hour radius south of our home (Northern Illinois). We found this and
many others. After a few unpleasant conversations with other locations, a
few uninformative exchanges with other locations, and a few that were just
not what we were looking for, we decided on Poco Risco. Kevin was very
informative and responsive leading up to and after our arrival. The
accommodations were as good or better than "advertised". Kevin was/is very
pleasant and professional. We stayed with our two daughters (3 years old)
and my parents. We all had a great time; the cabin/home was clean, well
laid out, and just a pleasure. The girls (actually, all of us) didn't want
to go home. Booking a vacation over the internet can be, by its nature,
risky- this was a very pleasant experience that I fully recommend. BTW-
this section of the lake was quiet- we loved it.

Kevin, we had a great time over New Years. A very nice place with a
great fireplace made our stay exactly what we wanted for the holiday. We
saw several bald eagles that flew within 30 feet of the house. They were
so close you could see their eyes. AWESOME!!! The snow that we got made
everything so beautiful. What's up with the castle across the lake? Would
definately stay there again.

Kevin-
We had a wonderful stay in your log home over thanksgiving. The house is
beautiful, the view is great and the location is easy to find but still
private. The house is in great shape and has all the amenities we could
want! I look forward to our next trip to the lake and Poco Risco. Thanks
for a great vacation!

Hi Kevin,
Just thought I'd look through your website a little and learn more about
the Lake of the Ozarks.

Kevin,
We are making our family vacations an annual event, mainly because we such
had a wonderful stay at the log cabin. The lake is beautiful in the spring
AND the fall. The surroundings are so peaceful. I miss sitting out on the
deck watching the birds as they float over the water.
My little nieces love to go on walks and pick wildflowers for the table.
They also love to fish from the dock althought they haven't gotten the
casting down yet.
I grew up in Missouri and live in California now but going to the cabin at
Poco Risco makes me appreciate the beauty of Missouri.
Thanks again for your hospitality!

Kevin - Beautiful place for our family gathering.
We really enjoyed our stay. Hope the picture of
our 22 mo. old graddaughter catching her first fish off the dock turns
out. Hope to visit again
next year.
Sincerely,

Kevin,
I live in New York, and knew nothing about the Ozarks before visiting. I
found your internet site, gave you a call, and you walked me through not
only the amenities of your beautiful homes but of the Ozarks area. I
especially appreciate your putting me in contact with people who rent
boats in the area.
Again, your homes were indeed top notch, well cleaned, and in a beautiful,
rustic setting.
Thank you!

Loved our stay at LNG log home. We had found the house on the internet,
so were very apprehensive and didn't know what to expect, especially as we
had never visited Missouri before. The house was lovely, very spacious and
immaculate. That part of the lake provides the exact peace and quiet we
were looking for. We loved the views over the lake, the private access,
the sunsets, air conditioning--everything about it. I recommend poco risco
log homes highly.

Kevin,
We were really amazed at your homes. I really enjoyed what felt like a
very short week there. Your hospitality was amazing. You were there
everytime we needed you and were always willing to help out. I am looking
forward to stay there again in the future.
Beautiful place, outstanding view, amazing customer service = relaxing
vacation.
Thanks for everything,

Kevin,
Hope we didn't wake you with our early departure yesterday. Our daughter
is in medical school and we needed to leave early to avoid the early
morning fog so she could get back for classes.
I wanted to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Poco Risco. The
accommodations were outstanding. I look forward to our next visit.
