Business news: Holmes Bend now offers a meeting center

By Linda Waggener

A good turnout was on hand May 13, 2017 to help dedicate the new six-unit Holmes Bend Suites & Meeting Room.

Holmes, or Holmes Bend, was the name of this northwestern Adair County area before the lake was impounded around 1970. There were two previous owners before David Lewis Butler and his wife purchased the dock in 1986.

Since 2003 Kelly Butler Caldwell and her husband Joey have been handling day to day operations of the 20-acre property.



This summer their children Tanner and Kyndal are helping run the business. Kelly's father is still very involved but is not on site full time.

It has grown steadily through the years to 250 slips and the restaurant, ship's store and gift shop. There are now 12 cabins by the lake and five fishing cabins up the road from the Dock.

They also offer rental houseboats, pontoons, fising and ski boat rentals plus campsites and dry storage sheds for boats and RV's. They maintain a beach, ramp, pavilion and playground.
