Hummingbird Inn Camdenton

10/08/2025

I have been waiting to make this post .. We have Closed and Sold the Hummingbird Inn property... Some of you may (or may not) know we had a death in our family last year which caused me to change directions .. It has been my pleasure owning this property for almost 5 years .. and getting to open and run the Bed & Breakfast for the past seasons .. I have met so many incredible guests from literally all over the world!!! It has been such an honor to get to serve guests so that they could take a moment to relax .. and refresh themselves ..

I just want to say .. the small business owners at the Lake are the most supportive group of owners .. I appreciated your support .. I appreciated the referrals .. The Posts that you forwarded .. Thank you all!

At the end of the day .. this was a dream of a lifetime .. and I am able to say that I was lucky enough to live the dream!!!!

Thanks!

This post is late ..
We had a very busy 4th of July ..
Here are some of the highlights:

One couple visited us from Woodstock GA - he was a geologist and I have had a rock (rounded looking) that I found in my creek bed .. that I LOVE .. and I have always felt that is was magical (maybe full of wonderful gems????) so he took a look and told me my rock was Sandstone .. and the reason it is rounded is that it was moved by glaciers to form the shape .. WHAT? Glaciers .. we then had to google the glaciers shelves to figure out if they reached Missouri .. and by goodness they did .. not quite this South .. but MAYBE?

Next we had a couple stay 4 nights from St. Louis - a PHD student from Wash U .. they visited Riverbird Winery (said the food was incredible) Bridal Cave, Ha Ha Tonka State Park .. Bagnall DAM strip .. and other things for their long get a way vaca .. they aslo spent time "Just resting" from their busy life ..

Another Couple visited for 3 days from IL - who is relocating to LOZ for their retirement .. they were here just taking in the 4th of July weekend on the water at the Lake of the Ozarks ... they brought their jet ski .. and was off each day on the water ..

Another guest was here from St. Louis - both were retired and loved traveling to parks, hiking, taking in nature and FRANCE .. Ha Ha Tonka has been on their Favorite list of parks in the US .. they travel and stay at B&B's all over the world .. and he said my breakfast was by far the BEST he has ever had .. ??? What ??? What a compliment (I used to be a loan officer - LOL)

Our guests were AMAZING .. this area is beautiful .. what more could anyone want???

We had so many breakfasts ..
Chocolate chip muffins .. cookies ..

We had an absolute blast with Mary Kate! This amazing girl from Lee's Summit chose to incorporate the place she loves the most - the lake! 🏞️ We kicked off at the beautiful Hummingbird Inn Camdenton and wrapped up at the stunning Ha Ha Tonka State Park. Mary Kate is the sweetest, most laid-back gal who enjoys playing flag football and soccer. She was up for anything, trusted us completely, and just look at the results! 📸✨ Good luck at Mizzou, Mary Kate! 🐯🎓
