 It has been QUITE A WEEK at The Boone-Docks! Following is photo documentation of one of several BIG projects—The installation of a 43,000lb houseboat via 120-ton crane!  The developers of The Boone-Docks had a vision to create a niche resort of repurposed boats and nautical themed cabins, just outside the Cricket Creek Marina and Campground. A tremendous amount of planning has gone into this project over the last few years. After several hurdles, changes of plan and months of coordination and preparation, it was finally moving day! There were more preparations in store for the team once they were on-site. First, the crane was put in to position and assembled. Next, the boat was carefully backed up into position. Everyone who was present watched the driver work his magic. Thankfully he was a professional boat mover and had nerves of steel!  The hot tub was to be removed from the top deck of the boat for use at another unit. Once that was complete she was ready to be harnessed up.   The move was tedious, but was safely and successfully completed within about four hours!   We are super excited to see this yacht along with several other unique cabins come into the vacation rental scene near Table Rock Lake in Omaha, AR!
A HUGE THANKS to Jay Gipson Crane, Fitzco Marine Group and the bungalows team for all the hard work that went into this project! #houseboat #ayachtoffun #theboondocks #ozarks #yacht #yachtlife #vacationrentals #cabins #project #discoverbranson #tablerocklake #vrbo #airbnb #vacation #tinyhouse #boatlife

Enjoying the lake while in the OzarksTable Rock Lake is right in our backyard here in the Ozarks! With 800 miles of shoreline, the lake is over 43,000 acres and the deepest lake in Missouri. The lake is mainly situated in Missouri, but just so happens to dip down into northwest Arkansas (south of Branson) for our convenience! As you can imagine, there are endless options for lake-enjoyment. Here are a few of our best recommendations! Marina servicesCricket Creek Marina is our trusty destination for all things Table Rock Lake. The marina is located within a few minutes of our bungalow community here in Omaha, Arkansas.  This full-service marina has a brand new Ship's Store (with oodles of cute apparel & souvenirs), grocery staples, ice, beer, fuel, lake accessories and a full spectrum of hard-to-find fishing gear!     They launched their food shack this season and now serve up hot pizza & wings (available all day... they even have a mean breakfast pizza)! Feel free to call ahead or order in store.  Cricket Creek Marina has a focus on affordable Table Rock Lake boat rentals. Their fleet includes fishing boats, deck boats, pontoons, tritoons (yes, they offer water slide boats) and runabouts! There is a large assortment of fun add-ons to choose from such at tubes, trampolines and the NEW Paradise Pads! If you have your own boat and would like to station it on the water during your stay they can generally accommodate. Ask about their nightly/weekly rates. They also offer year-round slips.  The scene & sitesThere is an abundance of beauty to take in once you get out on the lake. The hills of the Ozarks surround you completely and provide endless opportunities for picturesque views of bluffs. You'll be sure to spot wildlife including eagles, fish, turtles, and deer as well. The infamous cliffs on Table Rock Lake make for great spectating. If you are seeking adventure you can even make the plunge!  A big draw to Table Rock is the year-round fishing including largemouth, smallmouth, Kentucky bass, crappie, white bass, walleye & catfish.  We recommend taking in the sunset out front of Table Rock Dam at least once! You may also venture further on the lake to Indian Point, Kimberling City and beyond!
An up and coming bungalow project just south of Branson, Missouri in Omaha, Arkansas will house two, unique vacation rental units. Nestled in the woods bordering a Corps. property line of Table Rock Lake, there is something very special in store for future vacationers to the Ozarks! Excavation work & FoundationsThe site first required some major TLC including the demolition of an existing trailer home. Once the unusable structure was removed, excavation work began. By the end of April, the foundations were laid! |
