What makes Brown's Lake House truly special is its story. Before becoming a vacation rental, this was our family home. It's where we spent years making memories and raising our two young boys. We've worked hard to create a welcoming space that still feels like home, and we're proud to share it with guests looking to create memories of their own.
When you're ready to unwind, enjoy a movie on the Smart TV, challenge friends and family to a game of washers or ladder golf, revisit classic favorites on the Nintendo 64, or simply relax in the comfort of a space designed to feel like home.
For transparency, the property has one exterior surveillance camera located on the front porch. It is used for property and guest safety and does not monitor any indoor or private living spaces.
Please note that there is a small above-ground pond on the property that houses our family pet fish. The pond is for viewing only, and feeding, touching, adding anything to, removing anything from, or otherwise tampering with the pond or fish is not allowed.
Whether you're visiting Lake Wappapello for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, Brown's Lake House offers the amenities, comfort, and hospitality to make your visit enjoyable and memorable.
We look forward to welcoming you to Lake Wappapello and helping you enjoy everything this beautiful area has to offer.
