Celebrating The Holidays In Your Second Home

Many Lake of the Ozarks second homeowners like to put a twist on their seasonal experience by visiting their vacation destination during the holidays. Think about the benefits: your family and friends can relax and enjoy time together without the responsibilities of home. When you own a second home at Mission Bay you not only have access to a clubhouse and indoor pool, you can experience the beauty of the Lake of the Ozarks. Lake living has something for everyone year round and your family will love the holiday experiences and availability of activities. Learn more about what makes spending the holidays in your second home a seasonal treat.




Decorating For The Holidays

Forget formality and create rooms that showcase your carefree side. Have fun with the colors of the season and create that warm, welcoming feeling your primary home has too. The Lake of the Ozarks has several great destinations for holiday home decor and you're certain to find a look that will last for years to come.



Holiday Hosting In Your Second Home

When you build your lake home at Mission Bay, the sky's the limit so you can create the kitchen of your dreams. Cooking at the Holiday's is a joy for many and having a great grocery store just up the road is a major plus. As guests gather in the kitchen, they'll be delighted to share in your holiday meal traditions. Hosting the holidays in your lake home will feel like a vacation and the much needed reprieve before the new year. 



What To Bring To Your Second Home During The Holidays

Take inventory of your winter gear before you head down. We all know Missouri weather is unpredictable so it's best to be prepared. Pack your family's personal cold weather gear such as hats, gloves, boots and coats. Being warm and cozy is part of what makes a cold weather vacation trip memorable but if you do forget that special apparel item, you're in luck because the Lake of the Ozarks is home to several specialty clothing stores as well as an outlet mall featuring over 100 stores. 


Winter Fun At The Lake Of The Ozarks

From holiday light shows to ice skating and s'mores the Lake of the Ozarks has fun festive activities for family members of all ages. Look forward to these seasonal events and more:
  • Christmas Village and Ice Skating at Old Kinderhook
    • Enjoy the Lake's only outdoor Ice Rink. Every weekend from now until Christmas families can visit with Santa, make gingerbread houses, make s'mores around the firepit and listen to stories or Christmas carols. 
  • Main Street Music Hall's Christmas on Main Street
    • The Main Street Music Hall is celebrating the spirit of the holidays with laughter, as Gabby Gumm and the talented musical cast spread cheer until December 18th, 2016. Visit their website for more information on showtimes and tickets.
  • Osage Beach Holiday Lights
    • Holiday themed lights will be on display at the Osage Beach City Park until December 31, 2016.

A well-planned holiday trip to your second home at the Lake of the Ozarks can yield lasting memories and be the basis for a new and fun-filled family tradition. If you haven't considered using your Mission Bay lake home as a festive travel destination, try it. You might even find that your second home becomes your holiday home away from home!

Your new home is waiting for you at Mission Bay!
