Perfect for Christmas!

Our children and grandchildren met us in Branson for Christmas. Black Bear Lodge was perfect! We had plenty of room to spread out but also enjoyed the gathering areas for family games and fellowship. The hot tub and the pool table were hits. I recommend the lodge for anyone looking for spot to get together with family and friends.

New Years Vacation

Had a great time at Black Bear Lodge! Family vacation that we take every Christmas/New Year time of year. Had a great pool tournament with all. The house had every utensil that you could want for to cook with. Decorated very nicely for holidays and with the black bears. Grandkids loved it. Ate at 2 great restaurants on the landing. Bricktown was awesome. Love the shopping there and Tanger mall! Hope you have as great a time as we did!

Very clean and well stocked

The home was very clean and well stocked. We had plenty of towels, toilet paper, napkins, etc. There was plenty of space for the 10 of us. We were close to attractions, but still far enough away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy some quiet time at the end of the day. The community pool was also a nice place to take the kids to burn off some energy. At one point, we had a question about the hot tub, and when I reached out I heard back almost immediately. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Awesome Family Time

The host was very responsive to questions. The accommodations were awesome with a bathroom for each bedroom. The oversized bunkbeds with a trundle bed were awesome for teen boys. The game room provided lots of friendly competition and the large kitchen was a great gathering place. The hot tub was spacious and clean. It saw lots of use! The house was a vacation in itself and the creek out back was explorers heaven for boys. All 13 people gave it an A+ rating. Neighborhood was quiet and the spacious. With so much to in the area, it was a perfect vacation spot for multi families staying together.

Plenty of Room Near Branson

This property worked well for our extended family of 12 (3 couples plus kids) for three nights. The only thing we would have appreciated would have been more silverware and different dishes/glassware in the kitchen. There were no small bowls, plates or cups suitable for young kids. I also did not find any containers for leftovers, as advertised. Fortunately we brought some paper plates and plastic cutlery with us. The big windows looking out on the trees were wonderful, but really needed to be cleaned. A fresh sponge in the kitchen and a better broom would have been nice to have. I purchased and left a sponge, along with a vegetable peeler that I needed.

Hollister MO House

House fit our needs perfectly. The six bedrooms really came in handy to accommodate all our family who had come down for our mom's funeral. Only a couple minor things, a couple end table lights didn't work due to a faulty roller switch. Both of the pull out sofa beds in the downstairs family room didn't work. We didn't notice this till the second night when we needed another bed. The living room had 6 or 7 TV remotes of which we could only get the one for the smart TV to work which was fine. Kitchen was well laid out and was equipped with everything we could need. Everyone said they slept well and the mattresses were comfortable. Having a dual unit AC was a plus and the kids had a blast with the multi game Arcade machine. Kids and adults had a great time at the community pool. Just a very nice place and would definitely stay there again.
