Branson Vacation Home

We decided that for a family vacation, we would really enjoy to have a home that we all stayed in together, rather than rent 3-4 different hotel rooms, have very little room, have to eat with strangers, have to swim with strangers, etc. So about 4 months ago, I went searching for a vacation home for us to all stay in, and found this diamond! 

It was less than the cost for all three of our families to stay in separate hotel rooms, less in food costs because we were able to cook for ourselves, we could stay up as late as we wanted and play games in the common room, while the oldies were in bed, our puppies were allowed, and had all the room in the world to go play outside without it being an inconvenience and without it bugging others. 

We had our own hot tub, fire pit, and our own 57 acres of property, without strangers and all of that Branson noise and craziness! It was incredible, beautiful, and I will NEVER do a family vacation in hotel rooms ever again! 

We've even talked about booking this same house ahead of time for a vacation every summer!

We had plenty of seating for the 9 of us to all eat together at the same table (never happens!)

A beautiful view of the Ozark Mountains, where you could see the stars and watch the fireflies at night.

Spa-like bathrooms, with steaming hot water and jetted tubs. Mmmmm.. 

King sized beds! This is a big one for Devin and I on vacations, sleeping in a king bed for a week is a vacation in itself because we can sprawl out without kicking each other :) 

We had some pretty fierce air hockey and ping pong tournaments. I'll even go as far as to say that I'm a beast at air hockey. 

Oh! And we had a fire pit that we all gathered around one night and I made us all foil dinners! We have family that lives in Branson, so we invited them over, and roasted marshmallows and just enjoyed their company. It was truly the best. :)
