Welcome to Cairn Cottage, a classic one-room, stone cottage sitting a stones throw from the Osage Arm of The Lake of the Ozarks (69MM). Relax in nature from the cabin hot tub year around. From May to September (and sometimes later) you can enjoy the Kayaks and SUPs at the lake lot. Please note that the cottage and lake lot are a short drive from each other. A boat slip is available 5/31-9/7 upon request. We always recommend travel insurance but especially encourage it during winter months.

Good to know

This rustic, stone cottage consists of one large room and a separate bath. A wood stove provides cozy ambiance in the fall and winter. The modest yet functional kitchen is equipped with a Keurig, microwave, small fridge, stove and the utensils needed for everyday cooking. A queen sized bed and daybed round out the sleeping situation. One can enjoy the lovely view down the hill from the screen porch or the hot tub. Access to the swim dock and lake views is a two minute drive down the road.

Other Details to Note

Cairn Cottage welcomes families with open arms. However the cottage works best for children aged 5 and above. We are not equipped for infants and toddlers nor is the cottage childproof. Additionally, we require guests sign a waiver of liability as a condition of their stay. If you have any additional questions about this (or anything else!), please don't hesitate to ask before booking. We want everyone to have an exceptional stay!

Accessibility and Availability

Neighborhood

Cairn Cottage sits on 4 acres, a quarter mile from the Lake of the Ozarks (69MM, Osage Arm). The cottage is only a couple of miles off blacktop on gravel. The lake lot is about a mile further, down the same road. The Brown Bend Public Lake Access and boat ramp is 11 minutes (6mi) away. Be advised that this area of the lake was developed before HOAs were a thing. Expect to see a wide variety of housing in the area. If the occasional ramshackle house or trailer disturbs you, you might be more comfortable in an area that has HOA. Additionally, Cairn Cottage sits right next to woods with a great variety of wildlife. Sometimes this wildlife gets up close and personal. Please don’t feed it and please do consider bug spray. Also keep the front door closed unless you are going in and out to make sure you don’t end up with an unwanted visitor inside the cottage.

Guest Access

You have access to the entire cottage and surrounding yard. We also have a dock with shared access a short drive down the road that is available from May to October. A boat slip is available upon request from Memorial Day through Labor Day. It is not available for fishing tournaments outside these dates. Our family wants you to have a pleasant stay in our cabin. We meet you upon arrival to show you the cabin amenities and make sure you have a handle on the wood stove or hot tub. We also show you how to get to the lake lot. After that, you might see us at the dock but we generally disappear until you need something.

Location

Edwards, MO, United States

Cairn Cottage is the perfect getaway! However, this means that the nearest convenience store is 20 minutes away and a full grocery store is 45 minutes away. Camdenton and Warsaw are each about 45 minutes away and Osage Beach another twenty minutes after Camdenton. If you have any questions regarding location, please ask! We want you to be happy with your choice.

My boyfriend & I decided to find a secluded cabin in an area of the U. S. that we've never been to-- and as fate had it, we landed at Cairn Cottage! The cabin itself + amenities are exactly described/pictured, & the breakfast casserole was not only a thoughtful touch, but a yummy one! Hot tub was clean & hot-- perfect way to enjoy the outdoors on a December evening. All in all, well worth our 9+ hr drive, would definitely book again. thanks again, Hannah & Dannon! :)
