We found that the Falls Village was a great place to stay. Everything was so clean, and the people at the check-in desk were very helpful. The rooms were very large and very clean. Nice furniture! It was also close Hwy 76, and Silver Dollar City was also close.
We also stayed at Big Cedar Wilderness Club, which was really nice. It was a little ways from Branson, but the drive wasn't bad. We also stayed at the Chateau on the Lake and enjoyed that very much.
