New things happening at Grand Lake

The 2016 lake season has started at Grand Lake. Last week it was in 80s and sunny, perfect for enjoying the lake. And at Tera Miranda, we opened the season to a full house at the Quarterdeck Waterfront Café and its newly expanded outside deck – wow what a scene.

The lake favorite Quarterdeck Waterfront Café is just one of the amenities within a 5 minute walk from Tera Miranda Shores. This private gated community has been created by the visionaries who bring you Sporting KC, Loch Lloyd and The National. Tera Miranda Shores on Grand Lake has been developed for those seeking a lake experience second to none. We have put together a special place where you can relax and call home. We have created a carefree lifestyle with all the amenities you would want in a lake house, according to Dale Brouk of FiveStar Lifestyles.

Tera Miranda Shores, located on Grand Lake in northeastern Oklahoma is just a 2 ½ hour drive from your home in Kansas City. A simple drive down Interstate 49, west on Interstate 44 until you exit on Hwy 59. Once off Interstate 44 it is an easy 15 minute drive to the lake. With Grand Lake this close and a much easier drive what does it have to offer?

Once you arrive and the gates close the stress of everyday life vanishes and you begin to enjoy the amenities which include walking trails, a zero entry pool, a children’s splash pool, children’s playground, health club, amenity building and within a 5 minute golf cart ride you can dine at one of Grand Lakes finest casual lake front restaurants, The Quarterdeck, or be on your boat to watch the sunset while on Grand Lake. In addition to these amenities, we also offer our homebuyer maintenance for their boat, a convenience store, boat ramps, on-site fueling station and 10 fully remodeled lodges so you and your guests can enjoy everything Tera Miranda has to offer.

Grand Lake was created in 1939 with the construction of The Pensacola Dam. The dam created a lake with 46,500 surface area acres providing the boater with a large main channel. This wide open channel gives the boater a sense of freedom when on the lake versus the layout of other lakes in the area which have many coves and narrow channels. Grand Lake continues to gain in popularity for the boating enthusiasts, when asked, Grand Lake reminds me of Lake of the Ozarks about 25 years ago.

We have two models ready for occupancy priced at $189,900 and $299,900. Along with the two models the developer has commenced construction on two new homes priced at $289,900 and $359,900. If these homes do not fit your tastes we can build the home you want and choose from several completed lots.

The homes at Tera Miranda Shores have the look of Oklahoma Craftsmen architecture. Its well maintained exteriors and landscaping greet you as you arrive. You feel a level of comfort, knowing as an owner you never have to take time out of your life or weekend to mow, mulch, trim and fertilize your lawn this is all done for you. As you walk in the front door you will see quality throughout, the marketing team said. You will find high ceilings, large expanse of windows and efficient living spaces with the kitchen, great room and master suite on one level. The homes feature custom cabinetry, granite counter tops, hardwood floors and exquisite tile work.

It is hard to imagine leaving Tera Miranda Shores but for those golfing enthusiast you will have to make the short 10 minute drive to Shangri-La Golf Club and Resort (www.shangrilaok.com).
