Explore lake ozark from a local cabin rental.

The city of Lake Ozark is where the lake begins, and Lake of the Ozarks cabins here put you at the heart of everything the area has to offer. Just around the corner from your rental cabin, you'll find attractions for couples, vibrant nightlife, and family fun. From water parks and family amusement centers to wineries and party coves, it's all waiting for you in Lake Ozark. When you're not touring the sites, you can enjoy cabins with gardens, outdoor barbecues, and more to keep you relaxed and entertained, regardless of your budget, group size, or the reason for your travel.

Activities and attractions in Lake Ozark

Do you want to find attractions to visit while you're in the area? Travelers enjoy Lake Ozark for its boating, golfing and swimming. Venture out of your cozy vacation rental and experience everything that makes Lake Ozark a fun place to get away. Here are some of the top attractions to see, all within 30 miles (48.2 km) of the city center:

• Willmore Lodge (2.1 mi / 3.3 km)
• Miner Mike's Inc (2.3 mi / 3.8 km)
• Osage National Golf Club (2.4 mi / 3.8 km)
• Jolly Mon Indoor Water Park (6.3 mi / 10.1 km)
• Sugar Creek Mini Golf (0.2 mi / 0.3 km)
• Bear Creek Valley Golf Club (2.2 mi / 3.6 km)

Give yourself a break and get on the lake

Lake Ozark's key attraction is the lake, of course, and favorite activities for both visitors and locals revolve around the water. Rent a jet ski or a kayak. Take your boat out. Try parasailing or paragliding. If the lake ever tires you out, you are welcome at Lake of the Ozarks State Park, a leafy-green wonderland with 12 trails available for hikers, bikers, and horseback riders, plus picnic areas and campsites. Oh yeah, and the lake is here, too, so all those watersports still work.

Weather that doesn't need to go to extremes

Lake Ozark's humid continental climate is always influenced by, you guessed it, the lake. Summers are hot and humid, perfect for fun in the sun and on the water. Just keep a lookout for thunderstorms. Winters are cold, with lows in the teens and 20s, but the lake effect takes the edge off the chill. Spring, summer, and fall are the best times to take advantage of all your Lake Ozark vacation rental has to offer, but you can save some green and have a more tranquil trip to the beach if you book in winter.

Don't bat this little guy out of the sky

Your Lake Ozark vacation rental will be comfy and serene, and the lake is often placid. Still, the wilderness around you is full to bursting with wildlife. 58 species of mammals call the riverways around the Lake of the Ozarks home, including deer, bear, otters, mink, and muskrats. The many caves in Lake of the Ozarks State Park make perfect homes for bat species, and the area has one of the last big populations of the endangered grey bat. If you see one of these furry friends, let him be.

Traveling to and around Lake Ozark

The nearest airport is in Versailles, MO (VRS-Roy Otten Memorial Airfield), located 21.8 mi (35.1 km) from the city center.

Here's your list of captains and chartered yachts to get you on the lake of the ozarks in no time.

on 14 Apr 2019

The best part about vacationing at Lake of the Ozarks is being out on the water. But what if you don't own a boat or have a boating license ? No worries, because there are tons of businesses that offer captains for hire, private chartered yachts, boat rentals with a captain, and even a boat shuttle service. With all these options for getting out on the lake, you'll be coving out in no time.

There are lots of reasons to hire a captain . Bachelor and bachelorette parties love the freedom of having a driver as they have fun all day and night- with no stress about who will drive the boat. Chartered yachts are perfect for romantic getaways so you can focus on each other instead of trip logistics. Family reunions love the flexibility of hiring a captain so both adults and kids can take full advantage of their day in the sun. Even groups of friends like taking a shuttle boat from bar to bar so they can see more of the lake on their vacation. (Here's a full list of the great ways to take advantage of captains and chartered boats .)

Ok. Now that you've decided to enjoy full freedom on your next vacation, we've got the list of local businesses that can help you out. These friendly captains, taxis, and chartered yachts will have you out on the Lake of the Ozarks in no time flat.

1. Leisure Lake Charters

Leisure Lake Charters offers chartered boat rentals on one of their two boats. Choose from a 30 foot Rinker (for up to 10 people) that includes a fridge and rockin' stereo system, or a 40 foot Sea Ray (for up to 12 people) that cruises up and down the lake with ease. Either boat is perfect for your family or your party people. And with a seasoned captain at the helm, you know you'll be safe and stress-free the whole time.

2. Playin Hooky Water Taxi

Playin Hooky offers several different ways to get out on the water in a snap. For groups of 2 to 49, you can get a chartered boat to take you on the water in style. This option is great for couples, parties, and family reunions.

Daytime and Moonlight Bar Hop Cruises take you and your buddies to four bars in four hours on Friday and Saturday nights. It's the perfect way to see what different bars offer and check out the nightlife at each. Of course, there's a bar on the cruise as well, so you definitely won't go thirsty.

Playin Hooky's Aqua Shuttle charges a flat rate to be your water taxi all night. Choose from any of the waterfront bars on their list and go crazy.

3. Lake Ozark Water Taxi

Think of Lake Ozark Water Taxi as you would think of a regular taxi. They're happy to take you from waterfront location to waterfront location when you need them. No need to rent a boat or pay a captain for the day. Taxis are available anywhere from Bagnell Dam to the 14 MM. Just text them to schedule a ride. With payment options like major credit cards, Apple Pay and Android Pay, you won't be stuck looking for an ATM either.

The company also offers 4 hour charters if you want a dedicated captain or a larger travel area at your disposal. What a nice way to guarantee you can come and go to bars and restaurants as you please. Families, family reunions, bachelor and bachelorette parties all love this service!

Most of the taxis hold up to 13 people. Part of a big group? Lake Ozark Water Taxi is happy to send several taxis to your location so the whole group can travel at once. They're also dog friendly so you don't have to leave your best friend at the resort.

4. Mike Fink's Marina

At Mike Fink's Marina , you can choose any of their boats and then add on driver services. Head out on a party barge or a luxury tritoon. You can have your captain take you to an amazing fishing spot or a quiet cove to swim in the sun. They also offer parasailing if you're ready for a Lake of the Ozarks adventure!

5. Captain Bob's Boat Rental & Charter

Although you can easily rent  boats at Captain Bob's , their chartered boats come highly recommended. The Sea Ray Cruiser can pick you up at your resort and take you to the cove, restaurant, or bar of your choosing. Choose the chartered Sea Ray for your next employee appreciation day- it will be a hit with your staff. The captains are friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to help you have a fund day in the sun.

6. Four Seasons Marina

Located at the beautiful Lodge of the Four Seasons, this full service marina is ready to help you get on the water with minimal work on your part. For a totally hands-off experience, choose the captain service with your boat rental.

The marina also offers leisure cruises with a catered meal on their pontoon boats. Bring your family reunion and leave the cooking to the Lodge! Or surprise that special someone with a romantic steak dinner at sunset as you cruise up the lake and take in the view.

If you are new to fishing at Lake of the Ozarks, you'll love their professional bass guides who can guide you to the right cove and give you tips and tricks as you fish the day away.

7. Celebration Cruises

If you're looking for a chartered boat tour on a really large yacht, The Celebration should be your go-to. With two huge cruisers to choose from, you'll find one close to your resort. They offer lunch cruises with a narrated tour of your ride, while the sunset cruises let you take in the beauty of the lake without the noise. You can also order dinner on the sunset cruise.

They are happy to work with you to make your celebration one to remember.

Check out our brother yacht, Spectre.

Food & Drinks

Beach towels, experience lake of the ozarks in style.

Skyfall serves the entire Lake of the Ozarks region, from the OMM up to the 45mm and the Gravois Arm. We depart from the world famous Camden on the Lake (Toad Cove), which is prominently located besides several local hot spots including including Coconuts, Tap and Grill, Millstone, Horny Toad, Shady Gators and Lazy Gators.

What is/isn't Included

6 hr or 8 hr charters (weekdays), special rates, holidays & lake events, special events, cancellations, what our prior guests have to say, "one of the most luxurious weekend getaway spaces we've ever had in the ozarks".

I had the best weekend on Skyfall! It’s one of the most luxurious weekend getaway spaces we’ve ever had in the Ozarks. Josh was so easy to get in contact with and made the experience so smooth. Would highly recommend a weekend on Skyfall!!

"I was absolutely blown away by this amazing boat"

I didn’t know what to expect when I rented Skyfall but I was absolutely blown away by this amazing boat. I’ve rented other boats at the Ozarks before and I always felt like I was let down. The pictures don’t even do Skyfall justice! Skyfall is so luxurious! We love it so much we literally didn’t want to leave! We will definitely be renting this boat again. Not to mention that coordinating with the Skyfall management team was so easy. They made the whole experience very simple and they were so flexible!

"The Epitome of Nautical Luxury on the Lake"

I was fortunate enough to stay on Skyfall in Summer 2020 and could not have been more impressed! Not only was the yacht itself absolutely stunning, Joshua and his team were all outstanding, professional and eager to go above and beyond to ensure our mini holiday was nothing short of perfect. As if Skyfall wasn’t already impressive enough with its newly-renovated, pristine interior that that easily accommodated our relatively large group with room to spare, the large sunpad and European synapse were ideal for sunbathing while the other spent the better part of an afternoon on the available jetskis which, to the delight of the men from our group, literally launched from the back of Skyfall into the water. If you’re looking for an unforgettable and, shall we say, bouyant getaway then do yourself a favor and reserve Skyfall with it’s stellar crew today!

"Perfect for a group of friends or family that want to enjoy a luxe weekend"

Skyfall is one of the most stunning boats I’ve ever been on. Perfect for a group of friends or family that want to enjoy a luxe weekend at the lake!

"the greatest charter at the lake"

If you’re on the fence about this experience, you don’t even deserve to step foot on this majestic beauty of a yacht. Clearly, a person hasn’t lived or even reached puberty until they have christened the Skyfall. It has FALLen from the SKY with its prestige workmanship on every inch of this floating oasis. The incredible detail throughout the cabins and custom sound system will literally and figuratively blow the socks off of you and the others next door. This boat just oozes excellence with those twin Cummins diesels chirping waiting to whip your hair back with their sheer power. You won’t regret kicking it and big d*cking it with all your homies atop this monster. So don’t tell me again about some fence and step on this life changing experience upon the greatest charter at the lake, SKYFALL!

We were familiar with the area from childhood experiences; but after our first trip and seeing all the lake had become; we were in love with all it had to offer – from the big open water of the main channel, to the huge coves larger than the lakes in our state, and the amazing dining and tourism offerings. We purchased our first lake home in 2020 and began the search for a property management company.

What we found at the lake were very high rates, services that were less than we expected, and very limited use of technology. Our immediate decision was “We could do this”, and began diving into Vacation Rental Management for our personal property. Along the way, it was so clear that this journey was the perfect fit for our family not only because we had over 25 years of experience in real estate, investing, rentals, and property management; but because our combined professional experience spanned customer service, general contracting, business development, and experience design. And our family loved the lake – what a perfect reason to move!

Experience You Can Rely On

LakeDays.Rentals began in March of 2021. We went through that season with two total properties evaluating technology, systems, and how to best serve guests. In fact, that season helped us learn how to stand apart. The technology was a great support for guests in communication, smart home access, and guidebooks/guest information. We understood what it meant to connect with our guests, know why they were visiting the lake, and provide personalized recommendations – even concierge level services. It also gave us an understanding at a small scale of what hospitality truly means from services, to supplies, and responding to questions along the way.

In two years LakeDays.Rentals has grown to over 120 properties throughout the lake. In addition to our commitment to service, hospitality, and the use of technology to create an exceptional guest experience; we believe our diverse listings also make us stand out. Rather than focusing on an area or a style of home, we have taken in properties from a studio cabin to condos and then large estates accommodating over 30 guests. Our guests appreciate the LakeDays.Rentals experience and can continue to have that whether coming as a couple, friends group, small family, or extended family reunion. They can find the experience we provide throughout all areas of the lake, from the main channel to the more remote branches. This is truly a unique offering – allowing our guests to continue to experience the lake in different ways – still knowing what to expect in their service, cleanliness, and supplies.

Our Commitment to You Partnering with Casago was a natural decision. We are always looking for ways to offer “more” to our guests, our owners, and the lake community. Casago is that “more” in many regards. But most importantly, their culture, leadership, and commitment to service aligned with who we are and how we serve. With Casago we are able to connect to a broader market, understand what successful owners are doing to stand out, and gain access to technology at a level we couldn’t achieve on our own. The partnership takes what we were doing and elevates it to a new level benefitting everyone we serve.

One focus of Casago is to be “LOCAL” and this has been a commitment of LakeDays.Rentals since inception. We joined our first Chamber within a month of launching and continued to join all lake area Chambers, serve on the local board of directors, and join business networks to better connect and serve at the lake. Along the way, we have also joined in the fun aspects of the community from business expos to parades; and we have been impressed with the number of committed local businesses here. Our team embraces this intention and each member is empowered to find new opportunities to connect in the community.
