We have been thrilled to host guests and work extra hard to ensure that Rivendell continues to be an ideal place for resting safely with your loved ones and team. At our home, you will be isolated from crowds and even neighbors. All the information you need is sent to you before your visit, so you won’t have to interact with anyone outside your group or family during your entire stay. When you reserve Rivendell, the home, 8+ acres of woods, and dock are all set apart FOR YOU. No other guests. No other visitors. Just you, your group…and lots of peace. \*\*\* Rest, space, privacy, peace....hiking, cold water fishing, wooded walks, family memories...we invite you to experience our prayer retreat home on a bluff overlooking Lake Taneycomo, Rivendell in Branson. Ideal for family reunions, staff meetings, retreats, luxurious vacations, golf outings, girls getaways, and those who want to hike and fish by day and relax in a hot tub by night... Our guests have asked to take our mattresses home, 'borrow' our original art :-), move in permanently...One tween hugged her mom and said, 'I feel like I'm a princess!!' Golfers rest between rounds near the grill or fireside for a game of chess. Fishermen hike down to the lake to our private dock to catch trout for lunch. Families walk through the woods and roast marshmallows over the firepit. Sun-lovers tan on the deck and then lounge in the hot tub... No need to worry about thin walls or loud neighbors or traffic noises...or people even knowing where you are! Our address is literally off the map, tucked away within 8+ acres, hidden by trees on 3 sides and Lake Taneycomo on the fourth. Though just 3.5 miles from Hwy 76, 6 miles from Branson Landing and minutes further to all the fun Branson offers, you may never want to leave once you pull in... Wake-up in your comfy bedroom (each one has a different theme!) to watch the deer in the morning. Warm-up to winter seated fireside by the Lord of the Rings chess set. Take a nature hike with loved ones. Enjoy laughter with family and friends around a grand dining table, over a game of shuffleboard, table bowling, foosball, arcade games, or with the Wii. Watch the sunset with a panoramic lake view on one of the decks. Relax in the 8 person hot tub or detox in the 2-person sauna before you say, 'good-night.' And end the day with a cup of your favorite coffee and a great book from Rivendell's house library as you sink into one of our fabulous chaises and chairs. Welcome to our retreat home. Every inch is devoted to spiritual rest and renewal. Welcome to a private haven hidden in the woods on Lake Taneycomo, a cold water fishing lake. Welcome to a resting space where no one can find you and no one is calling your name. And if you're still reading...here are five notes for you: 1\. Our home is county permit approved with an occupancy up to 20 guests. 2\. No amplified music or weddings are permitted because of how sound travels along the lake. 3\. This property sits atop a scenic bluff overlooking beautiful Lake Taneycomo, offering breathtaking views from the house and a tranquil escape at the dock below. Guests can access the private dock via a natural wooded trail, but please note that the hike is moderate and may be challenging for individuals with mobility issues or elderly guests. While trickier sections have stairs to assist, the trail includes uneven terrain and is not suitable for wheelchairs or strollers. The stunning sunset views from the dock are well worth the effort — a peaceful reward after your trek through nature! 4\. Our home is now 27 years old and every year we tackle a new project. In 2018, that was a new roof. In 2019, a new heating/air unit. And our focus in 2025 is brand new exterior paint, windows, a full path to the lake, and refreshed decks. 5\. Please note that our home is in the WOODS on a LAKE in the OZARKS. Dirt paths and wood stairs weave throughout the 8+ acres but if you're looking for a manicured arboretum, please keep looking. However, if you're up for some hiking, love the outdoors, and aren't bugged by bugs, you'll really enjoy exploring Rivendell's acreage! There's 7 park benches to discover, a creek bed to explore, and in the spring there's a little waterfall to find. Keywords: charm, lakefront, wooded, private home, sauna, hot tub, fishing, hiking, large groups, family reunions, church retreats. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 7 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Day bed ### Bathroom - 6 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Jetted bathtub - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video games - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 9 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - In-room accessibility - No lift - Wheelchair accessible (may have limitations) - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping on request - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the marina - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Boat - Foosball table - Gym - Water park - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Parasailing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Spelunking nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 4,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/42000000/41050000/41048200/41048154/ca4f81d9_edited_655b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Great Location, Private Fire Pit, Hot Tub Hollister - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine 10 Exceptional 182 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-22&endDate=2026-01-23&selected=41048154&PinnedHotelID=41048154&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, video games, DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/120000000/119980000/119973900/119973892/22203dfa.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pools, Pool Table, Rec Room, Splashpad, Waterslide Hollister - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 10 Exceptional 91 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-22&endDate=2026-01-23&selected=119973892&PinnedHotelID=119973892&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82760000/82756700/82756667/4505cd88.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cedar Cove -Private Lake Front + Hot Tub -5 min to Branson Strip -Dogs ok w/fee!
