After growing up vacationing on Table Rock Lake, my husband Gary and I purchased our first property, an authentic log cabin, in Shell Knob in 1987.  After years of driving back and forth from Kansas City, we finally made the break from the big city in 2000.  We have three wonderful children and 4 terrific grandchildren and we are blessed that they have all chosen to live nearby in Shell Knob.  My husband and I bought adjoining property to our original log cabin and offer the two cabins for nightly rental (www.greencocoon.com).  After retiring from my job as business manager of a growing architectural firm, I was able to pursue my dream of becoming a Realtor.  I am very devoted to my real estate career and will work hard for all my clients to sell their property or find the perfect piece of property for buyers to enjoy for years to come.
