We found the condo to be nice and clean. And whenever I texted or called Shelia she always responded quickly and very pleasant. We did have problems with our door lock but the owner, Bob made sure we got a credit for one night for our trouble. I would not hesitate to stay there again. The outdoor pool is nice and the other guests were wonderful to talk to. Amy

It was a nice place, nice condos. But we arrived to a bathroom that wasn't cleaned well. We brought coffee, but it was a keurig and all the cups were tea. The bedsheets were polyester which meant you had to the fan on in the windowless bedroom. I sent her a private note saying we loved the stay, but also (btw) telling her these things above. I guess I wasn't supposed to do that. In her review, she said I wasn't a good guest because I nitpicked her. Wow! Her name is Dianne. So if you rent from her, tread softly and don't nitpick.

My family has taken a long weekend every summer for the past 10 years. This is the worst property that we have ever stayed in. We rented five units. Only one had WiFi. You had to go to the indoor pool to get a connection and it had limited hours. Wonder why there are no pictures of the exterior? They don't want you to see it. It looked liked urban subsidized housing from the outside. There were so many stairs to climb. Not fun when you are carrying a large cooler of food. The sofa sleeper in all five units were horribly uncomfortable. The floor was better. We were impressed with the low price, but you get what you pay for. This experience has taught me what to look for in the future so I can avoid a place like this.

Response from Lynda B, Guest Relations Manager at Southwood Shores Resort Condominiums
Responded Sep 16, 2019
Hello Shira R, I wanted to first of all apologize that we did not meet up to your expectations. With regards to the exterior of the property: at your request I have now added several exterior photos. We are very proud of Southwood Shores Condominiums, as it has been a family favorite resort over the last 30 years in the Beautiful Lake of the Ozarks. Our booking website VRLOZ.com is designed to give you all of the specific details of the property as well as individual condos including the exact number of steps up or down from parking and how many beds total along with whether it has direct WIFI or not. Therefore you are able to have this information before your arrival so you can plan accordingly. Unfortunately, the 3 inch sofa beds are not going to be as comfortable as 6-9 inch plush mattresses. My only advice is to look at renting 3 bedrooms on your nest trip to provide more comfort for all of your guests. I am happy to discuss further details with you if you would like to call me 573-693-1400. Kindest regards, Lynda Brown-Poort.

Great condos and easy to work with agent Lynda. We have used these condos serveral times for different events from a romantic get away to having a birthday party. They have wonderful views and everything you need for a little get away or longer family vacation. Lynda had everything ready for us and was available to answer any questions we may have had from local attractions to anything dealing with condos, sometimes at unconventional hours even and she was always very friendly. We will be using her and the condos again and again.

We had 5 adults and stayed in unit #319-1D, which is on the ground level; unit is updated and clean; great deck with plenty of room for grilling/eating/playing games; deck has a good view of the lake; kitchen has most items needed for cooking meals in the condo, but probably a good idea to bring some things from home if they are important to the preparation of your meals; swimming pool is open until midnight and it's a fun gathering place at night; keyless entry doors are a nice perk as well.
