This is perfect place for a peaceful getaway but it's still close enough to Branson to enjoy the day out. The host, Karen, is so friendly. She welcomed us to the property and shared the amazing story of Lacy Michele's Castle. Beautiful surroundings! A very clean and comfortable place to stay.

We enjoyed this out of the way, peaceful retreat off the beaten path. We found the bed to be more comfortable than some high-end hotels! Our host was gracious and kind, offering fresh produce from her garden. We were provided with everything we needed to relax, rest, and recharge. We enjoyed grilling out and enjoying the great outdoors!

Loved the location, very quiet and peaceful. No better place to stay with your fur baby. The fenced in yard was very nice for our dog to run and enjoy the outdoors. Karen was very pleasant and friendly. It is a unique place to stay and is only about 30 minutes from Branson. Will definitely go back again.

We were only here for one night to attend a concert at Thunder Ridge; we will be back. The property is secluded and has rustic charm. The host is super friendly and made us feel very welcome. Be warned, the story behind the castle will tug at your heartstrings. The area is a certified black sky site, so on a clear night you can see so much. It's great for astrophotography. The next time we visit, we'll be sure to take advantage of all the property has to offer (hiking trails, games, a great outdoor area, etc).

My sister (80, wheelchair), my dog, and I stayed in this unique lodging for a week. She LOVED sitting out back, where my dog ran around and explored the large, fenced-in area. She moved around with ease, including the bathroom, kitchen, and living area. We had lots of storage, great air-conditioning, a beautiful drive, plus amazing stonework and stories to enjoy. My dog and I took long walks on the road, by the woods, and through meadows - if you do, expect lizards and insects.
