Best Things About the Resort:
Great location!

Resort Experience:
The Woods is a great location. The unit was a one-bedroom lock-out. We did have a couple of maintenance issues. One was addressed quickly. The unit was very quiet. We have stayed a number of times and plan to go back again in November. I would recommend this resort to anyone.

It is very beautiful. It has great scenery and is close to everything: Silver Dollar City, the highway, restaurants, etc. It is very beautiful at Christmastime. I highly recommend staying here if you go to Branson.

Grandvista Cedar Woods Resort

  • May 26, 2004
  • Rated 5 of 5 by Maroons from Menominee, Michigan
Best Things Nearby:
All the shows. Close to everything, but not right in the middle of all the traffic.

Best Things About the Resort:
It's quiet. The rooms are large and well furnished. The front desk does a great job helping you get tickets to any show you want, always great seats.

Resort Experience:
We stayed at the Cedar Ridge Resort the first week of May in a two-bedroom lockout. Basically, we were happy with the resort. There were a few minor things we found odd. There are two doors leading into the master bedroom, one from the living room and one from the bathroom. The only light switch was on the wall by the bathroom. You couldn’t turn on the light if you came in from the living room. Just a small thing. We had a second floor room with a view of the fountain. It looked just like the picture in the RCI catalog. The resort was very easy to find. Check-in was very quick. They have a bellhop to show you to your room and the help with luggage. Very nice. There is a huge dining room when you first walk in. The table seats eight. Everything was clean and well stocked. We did find the layout of the living room to be odd. The room is so large that, without moving chairs around, conversation was difficult. The couch was not very comfortable.

We did have a problem with the air-conditioning that never did get fixed. After two days of calling to have someone come to fix it, they offered to move us to another unit on Friday, but we were leaving on Saturday morning. The lock-off side had air that worked, so we just left that door open and used a fan. Other than that, the resort was perfect. The pool was not open when we were there, but looked to be in good shape and had a lot of lounge chairs around it.

All in all, we would go back here. We purchased tickets for several shows from the main desk and we had great seats for all of them. The show they did on Monday night at the resort was great. The meal is now $6 per person and consisted of lettuce salads, pasta salads, rolls, boiled potatoes, green beans, meatloaf, and desert. The entertainment was impressive and we ended going to a couple more shows because of the entertainers being at the resort.

They have a nature trail at the resort. Unless you hike a lot, it was pretty intense. My husband does a lot of hiking, and he was leery of me going. I did, but it was not easy. This is not an easy stroll, but up and down hills.

I would rate this resort an 8, only because of the air-conditioning problem.
