We really enjoyed our stay here! We had 8 adults, 3 teenagers, and 2 babies under 3 and everyone had a great time! The house was beautiful and had the perfect amount of room to accommodate us. We loved having the dock for our boat and to swim off, the front deck to hang out and play cards on, and the beautiful home to cook and hang out in! Great location on the water! The house had everything we needed!

Enjoyed a relaxing weekend with swimming, boating, and shopping. The screen in porch is great.

Family of 14 enjoyed our family vacation. The house was spacious, along with the deck and dock. Kitchen was equipped with our cooking needs. Family had fun jumping off high dive, going down the slide and kayaks! Will stay here again!

This property has everything our family needed for a wonderful lakefront vacation. 4 kids and our dog all enjoyed the property and the area!

We needed somewhere to stay while we did renovations on a house we bought near by. She was very helpful, quick to respond when I needed to add a few extra days to our stay. I love this place, during the week it was like our private spot time forgot about, however the weekend does get busy...but still is a wonderful place!!!

Lovely house, property and views Very clean and well maintained Everything we needed was provided everyone very nice and helpful we very much enjoyed all aspects of our stay

Very clean and there was enough room to spread out in and enjoy! Beautiful property! The property manager was very communicative and helpful! We will definitely be back!

Quite with a great view!

We had such an amazing time at this property. Some of my family/friends and I made a first time trip to the Ozarks and it did not disappoint. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

What an amazing place everything was emasculate and completely like home. Such a peaceful area, exactly what we needed. Hardest part was leaving but we are already talking about going back.. cant wait!

Sherry thank you so much we really enjoyed this trip the hardest part was leaving. Hope to be back soon

Our family loved this property! The dock is plenty big with ample chairs and loungers. The calm cove is perfect for swimming. The kitchen is well stocked and furnishings are nice. We had plenty of space. The screened porch was perfect for our morning coffee. We will definitely return to this property!

Sherry was wonderful to work with and was very responsive. The property was very nice and we loved being so close to the water.

Perfect place to relax and unwind. Views are spectacular! House was clean and fully stocked with everything. We will come back here again.

We loved this property. It was just as advertised. So much outdoor space and easy walk to the dock. Great view of the lake and close to amenities. Rooms were comfortable and neighbors were SO nice and helpful.

Plenty of space for at least two families and completely stocked with everything you might need. The dock has ample seating for lounging while the kids enjoy the diving board, slide, lily pad and kayaks. Very quiet no-wake cove with very little boat or jet ski traffic. Fire pit also availabe for use in the evenings. You just need to supply the wood and s'mores! Two kitchens along with two full-sized refrigerators makes food/drink storage and meal prep easy! Plenty of indoor/outdoor seating for multiple families during meals and relaxing. Property is just a short drive (15-20 minutes roughly) to grocery/convenience stores and local restaurants in Laurie or Gravois Mills.

CWV is always easy to work with and the entire rental process is easy and quick. Everything is spelled out and there are never any surprises. We love working with Sherry!!!!!! This property had everything we needed. The homes were clean, well maintained, the kitchen was well equipped. Everything worked well. The deck between the houses is large and that is where we spent a great deal of time when not in the water. The owners Paul & Nadine were wonderful. They live across the road and were available if needed but in the back-round. All of the neighbors we encountered were friendly. This place is ideal for up to ten without crowding. Plenty of parking and plenty of wildlife. Planning our next trip.

Weve always been happy with Crystal Water Villas. Have stayed for years. Thanks Sherry Shippee!

The property is really lovely, nicely decorated and very clean. The outdoor area overall is great for spending time outside, with the patio, the deck, firepit, the dock and a nice, pretty park area to the side. It's quiet there and peaceful, just right for us. The owners were very helpful and friendly. The view of the Lake is so pretty. Kudos to Sherry, because we had a hitch with something we needed help with while we were there, and Sherry was accessible and went out of her way to help us get it figured out. She really went above and beyond. We really enjoyed our stay at this property

Great experience will come back

This was a perfect getaway for my husband and me and our two little dogs. The house is extremely clean, well maintained, and has plenty of space for a couple or small family. The deck is very large and has both a covered, shaded area and an uncovered, sunny area. The house is on a cove off the main channel and I swam almost a mile in the cove every morning and felt perfectly safe. The photos are very realistic, the beds are extremely comfortable, the towels are fluffy, and my husband said the grill is excellent. There is also a new, large Woods grocery store less than 10 minutes from the house. The owners of the rental live in a gorgeous house next door and are extremely helpful and friendly. It was a wonderful week.
