Big Cedar Lodge trip

We had our family trip for the summer this past weekend. We let the boys skip the 3rd day of school and headed to Branson to stay at Big Cedar lodge.  Jason had an ODA continuing education course there for three hours - a great excuse for a vacation!

Mini golf was free (and that's about it) - the boys loved this bonus!

 

These are just shots from around the resort







We went to Top of the Rock for dinner. This is the driving range of their golf course. My boys were drooling!

We ate at the new Arnie's Barn, named after Arnold Palmer. It was mexican fare and was delish!

This barn is 150 years old - taken from his hometown and rebuilt, piece by piece, here.

A view of the course from the restaurant. So pretty. The waterfall on the right was lovely!

This was the only picture from the second night. We ate leftovers from dinner on Friday, and rented a movie and had room service for fun.

Big Cedar was pretty scenery and the facilities were well done.  As a family vacation, it just doesn't hold a candle for any of us to Fair Hills and made us really appreciate the true vacation that resort offers a family.
