We've been talking a lot about our two new rental houses lately, and if you have taken the time to look at the pictures we have shared, then you know why we are so proud. Both houses offer enough living and sleeping room for large groups, a courtesy dock, washer/dryer, kitchen, and decks with panoramic views and gas grills. Everything you need to feel right at home, and the ability to join in all of the fun going on at Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina conveniently located next door.

Rent Our Houses - Right Next Door to Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina!

Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina now has two amazing vacation rentals at the Lake of the Ozarks. If you are planning a trip to the area and are in need of an amazing place to stay, then you will definitely want to check these awesome houses out. 

*THE HOUSES*

Why rent an entire house?

There are a number of reasons that having an entire vacation rental house to yourself is a much better idea than simply renting a hotel room. If you are going to be in town for more than a night (and if you truly want to experience the Lake of the Ozarks, you're going to need a few nights!) or if you are traveling with a group of friends or your family, then our rental houses are exactly what you should be looking for.

Room for everyone

The Glass House offers 1,500 sq ft of living space. You can fit up to 8 people comfortably inside. Two of the bedrooms house queen size beds, the third bedroom has a full size bed, and there is a sleeper sofa in the living room. There are two bathrooms on the property. 

The Red House boasts 3.400 sq ft of living space, perfect if you are traveling with more than eight people. Of the four bedrooms, the master suite upstairs has a king size bed and it's own full bathroom. Upstairs you will also find a sleeper sofa and a bedroom with both a queen size bed plus a day bed. The remaining two bedrooms are downstairs, one with a king size bed and the last with a queen size bed, plus an additional sleeper sofa in the living area. This level also has another 1.5 bathrooms.        

Grill lakeside

Both houses have a gas grill for you to utilize on the gorgeous decks overlooking the lake. There is a stunning 44-foot deck for dining, lounging, and entertaining at the Glass House. The Red House features two of these fantastic 44-foot decks. 

All the comforts of home

Each house has a beautifully appointed kitchen for any indoor cooking that you would like to do. There is a washer and dryer for taking care of all of those wet clothes and towels after a day on the lake. You will also find all of the other necessary appliances needed for everyday living.  

Waterfront access

You will also have lakefront access when you stay in one of these Shorty Pants vacation rentals. A courtesy dock is available upon request, and there are two ramps close by for getting your boats and jet skis into the water. 

Don't worry if you don't bring your own watercraft, because we have partnered with BomBay Boat Rental Company, so your can rent a ski boat, tritoon, or waverunner to use while you are in town. 

Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina a short walk away

Right next door is our wonderful Cajun restaurant & bar and the best gas dock at the Lake of the Ozarks. Shorty Pants Marina offers covered boat slips, a full-service gas dock, and an incredible C-store filled with everything that you will need for a day on the water. 

Shorty Pants Lounge cooks up the best food at the lake, seven days a week. Our bar features the tastiest hand-mixed cocktails, and we only hire the most talented musicians to grace our stage. The menu has a strong Cajun influence, but you will also find a good variety of other flavors. 

Shorty Pants new Lake of the Ozarks vacation rentals are the ultimate vacation getaway for families and groups. A summer here at the lake is sure to be filled with excitement and fun, especially when you hang out with us here at Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina. Book your getaway today in either our Glass House or Red House. They are brand new, beautiful, and ready for you to start making memories in!

Crawl for the Roses During Harbor Hop This Saturday!

Boating season is officially opening up for 2016 this weekend with the 19th Annual Spring Harbor Hop, which we detailed in last week's blog. The Kentucky Derby happens to fall on the same day as Harbor Hop this year, and your favorite waterfront restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks will be celebrating both awesome events. 

Roses, prizes, fancy hats, & Bourbon!

This year on Saturday, May 7, 2016 between 3-6 pm, the 1st Annual Crawl for the Roses will take place at the Lake of the Ozarks, and Shorty Pants Lounge will host a stop for the crawl. This fun afternoon centered around watching what is referred to as the "most exciting two minutes in sports" will be filled with lots of excitement in addition to the race. 

First of all, while they last, we will have roses for the ladies. The red rose is the official flower of the Kentucky Derby, and they make up the garland that the winning thoroughbred is crowned with. We will also have Four Roses Bourbon souvenir cups to hold your favorite cocktails while you cheer on the fastest horse. 

A popular tradition of the Kentucky Derby is the Derby Hat Parade inside of Churchill Downs. Ladies don their fanciest bonnets, and the gents put on their best hats to wear to the race. We will continue this tradition during our event, and the best-looking hat will win a $50 gift certificate. These extravagant hats have become a symbol of good luck during the races, and they'll also come in handy during Harbor Hop to keep the sun out of your face. 

Live Music + Spring Harbor Hop

As if having two awesome things going on at the same time wasn't enough, we've added some amazing live entertainment to the mix. Adrian Bartholomew will be performing onstage from 2-6 pm. We know how to treat our customers right at Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina! When you pack the boat for Harbor Hop in the morning, throw your fancy hat in the bag and make sure your route brings you to us during these hours. 

Mint Juleps & More

Four Roses Bourbon out of Lawrenceburg, Kentucky is the sponsor for the Crawl for the Roses. The were voted the American Whiskey Distiller of the Year by Whisky Magazine 4 out of the last 5 years. One of the many amazing cocktails that we can make for you this weekend is the traditional beverage of the Kentucky Derby - the Mint Julep. Sitting out on our lakeside deck, mint julep in hand, watching the races, now that sounds like an unforgettable afternoon at the lake.  

We're only a few days away from another action-packed weekend at the best Cajun restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks. After all of the partying on Saturday, make sure that you come back with Mom on Sunday so you can treat her to a relaxing meal by the water's edge for Mother's Day. Shorty Pants Lounge & Marina is always a wonderful place to hang out and and enjoy a day with both friends and family.
