Accessible Lake and Farm Retreat w/Fresh Eggs, Nature Trails, and Gameroom

PEACEFUL & ACCESSIBLE LAKE RETREAT ON BULL SHOALS – 4BR/2.5BA | FAMILY-FRIENDLY WITH FARM PERKS

Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end road on the Theodosia Arm of Bull Shoals Reservoir, this newly constructed 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a serene escape in the heart of the Ozarks. Designed with both comfort and accessibility in mind, it's the perfect setting for family reunions, retreats, or anyone craving peace, nature, and thoughtful hospitality.

SURROUNDED BY NATURE, STEPS FROM THE LAKE:
Relax on the spacious covered wraparound deck or enjoy the shaded patio on the lower level. Deer and other wildlife often pass through the surrounding woods, and “The Maze” walking path just outside the front door invites quiet exploration. Guests are welcome to roam the seasonal fruit orchard and u-pick garden. Your host, a beekeeper across the road, offers honey tastings and shares a glimpse into beekeeping life. On arrival, enjoy a warm welcome with homemade brownies, fresh eggs, and local honey—just a few of the touches that make Shilo Farm feel like home.
