Margaritaville Lake Resort Lake of the Ozarks

What Margaritaville Lake Resort Lake of the Ozarks does

Margaritaville Lake Resort Lake of the Ozarks is a single-property destination resort operated by Driftwood Hospitality Management under a Margaritaville brand license, with the legal entity Tan Tar A State Road LLC registered in Missouri. The resort occupies 420 acres on the Grand Glaize Arm of Lake of the Ozarks at 494 Tan Tar A Drive in Osage Beach, Missouri, and traces its origins to 1960. It is structured as a multi-amenity hospitality operation rather than a pure lodging business: accommodations include standard rooms, one- and two-bedroom suites, ADA-accessible rooms, and the Tan-Tar-A Estates private rental homes; eight food and beverage outlets span from JB's Boathouse Grill and LandShark Bar & Grill through the upscale Windrose Marker 26 Lakeside Dining; recreation assets include the Jolly Mon Indoor Water Park, an 18-hole championship golf course (The Oaks, designed by Bruce Devlin and Robert Von Hagge), the Port of Indecision Marina with boat and WaveRunner rentals, the Fin City bowling/arcade complex, outdoor pools, the Driftwood Spa & Salon, and the Fins Up! fitness center.

Revenue is generated through six streams — lodging, food and beverage, recreation/activities, spa, meetings and events (76,000+ sq ft of flexible space with dedicated group sales), and a daily resort fee — priced largely transactionally (room nights, à la carte dining, activity admissions, unit-priced marina slip and equipment rentals, $100 damage deposit for 18–20-year-old guests) with a recurring resort-fee layer. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the company website, 1-800 phone reservations, a native iOS/Android mobile app, OTAs including Booking.com, social channels (Facebook, X, Instagram), email newsletter, a resort blog, and public walk-in access to most dining and recreation venues; group and conference sales run through a dedicated enterprise sales channel at [email protected]. Underlying technology is standard hospitality martech and web-security infrastructure (Google/Adobe Analytics, Google Ads, DoubleClick, Cloudflare, reCAPTCHA, Google Maps Platform, Termly consent management), with no disclosed AI/ML, proprietary platform, or data assets.
