Fish 'n Fun Resort

"As a kid growing up in Iowa during the 80’s and 90’s, my favorite vacation with my family was at Fish N Fun resort in Shell Knob, MO. It was the best place to enjoy the beautiful bluffs, smooth water, friendly people and to gather with extended family members. Waterskiing in the early morning and right before evening twilight was absolutely magical. After 30 years, it’s still that magical, peaceful feeling! I haven’t been back in over 30 years, but it was definitely an experience I look forward to repeating. Much has changed (for the better) at this resort. The owners have made sure that it’s definitely a home away from home experience. The rooms and cabins that fit every vacationer, from a single person to 14 persons are inviting and clean. Sitting on your deck or around the campfire is soothing and beautiful. The dock is situated in a hollow that is deep enough for 98% of all boats, even during the lowest of water levels. There are two slots for wave runners, which is what I used. Easy on and off access. The dock may no longer host the terrifying GenX high diving boards,, which was scary but fun, but it still has terrific swimming allowed right off the docks, as well as great fishing. The abundance of amazing birds to watch was very cool, too The pool is terrific!. The work to make the pool a place to gather is truly incredible. It’s a great place for families. Children have plenty to play with, too… both in the pool and out. They also allow most dogs. Check ahead to be sure. All cabins and rooms are well lit at night, making it easy to find where you’re staying. The hospitality is beyond compare! I was truly impressed by the 2 bedroom cabin I rented with a full kitchen. Just make sure you don’t forget your food. She’ll Knob is about 3 miles away, and most everything closes at or before 9pm. If you want a truly fantastic vacation, Fish N Fun is the resort. Easy to go from marina to marina, it’s a great place to go in season and off season. I truly can’t express how happy I am with the people who own this resort and the resort itself. I highly recommend Fish N Fun as your vacation getaway, any time of the year."

"We enjoyed our time at Fish n Fun. We were with a large group from Kansas, Illinois, Colorado, New Mexico, and even California. The ages ranged from under 1-93! The new owners are a sweet family that have worked very hard to update the cabins. They are extremely clean and really cute! The dock is really nice as well as the pool area. It has a slide and splash pad along with a great outdoor kitchen. Which we enjoyed gathering as a group to prepare our meals and eat together. There is an adorable sandbox made inside an old John boat, that the little ones had a blast in. There is also a really nice playground .We sure hope to return again.."

"We had a family gathering at Fish n Fun Resort. The cabins were clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. Each cabin has a small kitchen with a full size stove and refrigerator. At the pool there is a really nice outdoor kitchen which we used for several group meals. The pool is clean and well-maintained and has a slide and a splash pad. It was easy to get clean towels. Over all, we had a great experience and would do this again. I highly recommend Fish n Fun Resort!"

"Our stay at Fish 'n Fun was fantastic. The rooms we stayed in met our needs. We are a small fishing club with 6 members. We do a Spring and Fall trip. Fishing was good and even the fire pit we used nightly. We will definitely be coming back for our Fall trip. I would definitely recommend this location for any event your family has planned."

"I have been coming to this resort every summer with my family. My parents started coming before I was even around. Since Stephanie and Tyler purchased fish n fun, they've made the best resort on the lake even better. Their so accommodating and willing to work with families to meet needs and find solutions to snags every family vacation is certain to review encounter. The property is becoming even more updated and family friendly, which we're do excited about. This resort truly feels like a family even when others we don't know are staying at the same time. I just love the close knit feel of the resort and hospitality from the owners. I could go on and on..."
