Peaceful getaway on Swan Creek/Bull Shoals/Taneycomo; Close to Branson and SDC Located in the Ozark hills but a few miles from town sits this unique earth-berm style home in Forsyth, MO. Relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine on the back deck with peek-a-boo views of Swan Creek and Shadow Rock Park. BBQ on the deck while watching the wildlife or sip hot chocolate around the firepit. Grab a blanket and cozy up with a book, board game or watch a movie in front of the wood burning stove. Both the sunrise and sunset are visible on the deck overlooking corps land. Our lake house is enjoyable year-round: Swan Creek access within walking distance; Bull Shoals Lake and Lake Taneycomo boat ramp access-less than 5 minutes driving distance; 18 miles from Branson and Silver Dollar City; 30 minutes from Table Rock State Park. Bull Shoals contains walleye, crappie, white, striped and small mouth bass, and many other species of fish. Lake Taneycomo holds world-class and record-sized trout. All 3 lakes are great for fishing, boating, kayaking, water sports, and much more. Busiek State Forest and Wildlife Area and Hercules Glades Wilderness are just a short drive away for hiking and creek exploring. There is a walking and bicycle trail running from Bull Shoals boat access at Shadowrock Park to Lake Taneycomo access at Empire Park/Powersite Dam. Both parks also contain playgrounds, picnic tables, shelters/restrooms, and fishing areas.Enjoy the hustle and bustle of Branson and drive less than 20 minutes back home to quiet and privacy.This home features 2 bedrooms, one bonus room, 2 full bathrooms, large kitchen, and large laundry room.
