Laird Pogones developed Great Escapes based on his dream of living in a quiet country setting amongst wildlife and friendly neighbors, with a lake and the beauty of nature serving as his landscape. He subsequently established Laird's Lakeside Homes enabling him to offer general contractor services to landowners within the subdivision.

His own home at Great Escapes expresses his love of the water, with floor-to-ceiling windows, open architecture, and decks on both floors overlooking Lake of the Ozarks. Each of the lots in the development offers outstanding views, and Laird will assist you in careful home placement, design, and tree removal to preserve the landscape while optimizing your enjoyment of the lake.

Laird is a "hands-on" general contractor and lives on the premises, allowing close supervision of every step of construction to make sure his high standards and yours are fully met. His "cost-plus" approach to contracting saves you money and keeps your building project flexible and personal. Laird makes long-distance building easy--customer satisfaction is his top priority.
