An Osage Beach family's home was destroyed by a fire Thursday night.

The house was located in the 6900 block of El Terra Road.

Fire crews arrived to find the two-story home engulfed in flames. It took firefighters almost 90 minutes to get the fire under control.

The home is being called a complete loss. Total damages are listed at $300,000.

The owner of the home refused treatment, but several firefighters were treated on scene for heat related illnesses. One of them was taken to Lake Regional Hospital for additional injuries.
