Home Tour

7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, up to 20 Guests

Hiking trails, a fishing dock, room to roam

Master Suite: Restoration

“…you will find rest for your souls…” (Matthew 11:29)

Warm teals and chocolates invite guests to settle in for deep, extended rest. Soak in the morning in your personal sunroom, watch the sunset from a private deck, relax in the Jacuzzi tub, or detox in the 2-person sauna. Restoration features a king bed, trundle with 2 twin beds, TV, private deck, private full bathroom with jacuzzi tub, shower, and infrared sauna.

Bedroom #2: The Scroll

“Write on a scroll what you see…” (Revelation 1:11)

A hand-painted writing desk greets guests in this room designed by a writer to inspire writers. Dressed in deep wines and blacks, this fully wheelchair-accessible room has a private bathroom (shower only) and features a firm queen bed.

Bedroom #3: Gentle Whisper

“…and after the fire came a gentle whisper…” 1 Kings 19.12

Graced with Josh Mitchell’s tree photography, Gentle Whisper finds inspiration from Elijah’s encounter with God in a gentle whisper on Mount Horeb. Our only window-less bedroom is wrapped in warm lavenders and melting silvers and features a hand-carved, sleigh, king bed from the east and a private bathroom (shower only).

Bedroom #4: Living Water

“Whoever believes in me, streams of living water will flow from within him…” (John 7:38)

Deer greet you in the morning and a chair worthy of your favorite book awaits you at night in this earth-toned bedroom facing the setting sun. A 200-year-old hand-carved wardrobe of Narnian charm, and a view of the woods compliment a mahogany poster bed that encourages sweet dreams. Living Water features a king bed, half-circle writing desk, oversize reading chair, and a private full bathroom.

Bedroom #5: Eagle’s Watch

“…those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles…” (Isaiah 40:31)

Eagle’s Watch features a private bathroom (shower only) and an extremely comfortable king bed. However, you may never make it to the bed if you sit a minute in its luscious, leather chaise or bring a journal and pen over to the writing desk… and catch a sighting of eagles nesting lakeside.

Bedroom #6: New Creation

“…the old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Prepare yourself for a fresh infusion of creativity as you settle into this sunny lake-view room with a private entrance to the lower deck and hot tub. Salmon, sun orange, deep purple… fruitful colors invite you to think, dream, and hope anew. Sharing a hallway full bathroom with the bunkroom, New Creation features a queen bed, a large, leather writing desk, velvet chaise, and a private walk-out to the lake-side lower deck.

Bedroom #7: Green Pastures

“The Lord is my shepherd. I have everything I need.” (Psalm 23:1)

Chocolates, earth reds, tans… this four-person bunk room is decorated in a golf theme in honor of Alicia’s daddy. Comfortable mattresses ensure a good night’s rest for children and smaller teens or adults. Green Pastures is just inches from the family room and just steps away from each of the four lower bedrooms. The bunkroom features 4 twin beds, a shared bathroom with shower/tub in hall, and no closet space.

Just home from a four-night

Just home from a four-night stay at Riverdale for a surprise getaway for my husband’s 60th birthday. All of his kids and grandkids included for a total of 12. It could not have been more perfect, more beautiful, nor more comfortable. We had an amazing stay. Angela was so very helpful, even getting us a custom-made birthday cake and recommendations for places for us to eat with our big party. The entire stay was absolutely top-notch. Would do it again in a heart beat!

This house was such a

This house was such a perfect place for rest and retreat for me. I spent 3 days here completely relaxed and left feeling more refreshed than I had in years. My room was clean and stylish, yet functional and serene. It felt like the whole place was set up just for me. I also took an incredible walk down the path through the woods to the gorgeous river below. It just kept taking my breath away. I could tell there was so much thought put into every detail of the entire property and it was well worth the trip halfway across the country!

The house and property are

The house and property are magnificent. I honestly have never stayed anywhere so peaceful and well stocked in every sense of the word. The kitchen has every utensil needed to prepare meals and beautiful dishes to serve it on. The bedrooms are all unique with their own theme. The beds, pillows and throws are SO COMFY! As a nature lover, I really enjoyed walked in the trail to the dock and wandering through the woods–even in January! Of all the places we’ve rented for getaways, this is by far the most peaceful and beautifully decorated!

I’ve been to retreats at

I’ve been to retreats at Rivendell multiple times, and it is truly one of my favorite places on earth. I have so many precious memories walking the trails, sitting by the lake, and relaxing in the house. Every little touch you could imagine is taken care of. It’s a beautiful place to relax with family or friends or just escape from the busy hustle and bustle!

God’s peace and presence is

God’s peace and presence is evident all over this home and property! You will leave and know that you have had an encounter with Lord himself. May the Lord bless this dream and fulfill every detail!

What a beautiful, peaceful location

What a beautiful, peaceful location in the heart of the Ozarks. While I was there, it felt like life was paused, and I had come to visit God himself. My room was perfect in every way. There was a desk for writing, a chaise lounge for reading and journaling, and the bed was inviting. Downstairs every detail had been considered. The fireplace was warm and inviting, the kitchen was well equipped, and the view was incredible. I even got to enjoy the hot-tub once. I would highly recommend finding time to step away and enjoy this place either by yourself, with some friends or family, and if you have a chance to participate in a guided retreat, you won’t be disappointed.

This place made a mark on me. Quiet, beautiful, tranquil, and more than comfortable. I enjoyed the views from the deck , the hot tub to relax., and the beautiful nature trail down to the river. Don’t miss this one!

I loved my time at Rivendell! It was a place of peace and rest, where I could quickly enter into a welcomed change of pace and frame of mind. Every room was pristine and intentional, and my entire time on the property was soothing and awakening to the soul!

This home truly was a resting place for me. My mind and soul were quieted by the Lord’s love and peace here. This weekend was a huge blessing.

This book could not contain the purpose and destiny that Yahweh has for this house, land, and property. Yahweh has done marvelous things! I say yes and amen to every intent of the Lord’s heart.

Ijeoma

Beauty and His creation woven with love and peace, rest and transformation. Truly this home for Father and His children will exceed your imaginations. Eph 3:20. This is a resting place.

Dawn

The presence of God is so strong in this place. I pray unending love, joy, peace, and rest in this home. May God fulfill every dream you have in store for this home!

Andrea

This is a place of encounter, destiny, transformation and REST! Every ounce of this property breathes the Spirit of God!

Jessie

So much has happened in my heart after just spending 24 hours here. This place unlocks, uncovers, releases the shut-up wells of the soul. The hope that waits in the stillness can be found here. I’d love to return here in different stages of my life to find out what He wants to say. He’s speaking volumes here.
