The lake house was built in 1964 with the love of our parents for their 5 sons and their families to enjoy as a "get away" from the everyday workforce. My parents loved to entertain and wanted a home large enough to hold everyone under one roof; a place for reunions with relatives & friends, a place for grandchildren to bond together or bring their friends to enjoy a family fun weekend. Along with our parents, we hosted numerous corporate events for our family local fuel/oil distributorship business. Together we entertained our employees & staff with summer outings, meetings, BBQ’s and countless boat rides. Our families had hosted birthdays & graduation parties, engagement showers and numerous summer holiday events. This was our second home and together we all had built lasting memories in this house.
We are fortunate to have the advantage of spending countless summers fishing, skiing/wake boarding, boating, golfing & the women loved the lake area shopping. We discovered the best fishing coves, explored most all local tourist attractions and ventured every restaurant or nightclub in the lake area.
Young at heart, 50 years flew by. Our parents had passed, the business sold, somehow we grew older, our kids married, moved out of the area & started careers/families of their own. A new generation had created and it became difficult to get everyone together except for the major summer holidays. Instead of having the house sit empty, we decided to open the house as a rental for other families to enjoy and share.
Reflecting, our parents would want this home to be used and enjoyed by all and I know they would approve of this rental adventure. So welcome to our lake home! We hope you; your family and friends will enjoy endless summers the Lake of the Ozarks.
Sincerely,
The Loethen Family
