Since you are the one who will be living here during your time away from home, we wanted to create an atmosphere in the Gracious Moose Lodge to brighten your life in a way you will never forget. It was important to us that it be comfortable and cozy, but we wanted to go a step beyond and make it charming, too. We hope you will agree that we accomplished our inspiring ideas by surrounding you with exquisitely chosen colors and textures, and by furnishing every bedroom with luxurious linens, a flat-screen TV and DVD player. Because one of the bedrooms will be your personal space, the room where you begin and end each day, we paid as much attention to them as we did to the living areas.

The moment you step through the front door you’ll sense the warm welcome of the spacious, informal floor plan as the kitchen and dining area open to the large main living room with soaring cathedral ceilings, fireplace, and a breath-taking view through over-sized windows. Remembering how much living happens on porches, we are especially proud of the two screened porches. They are one of the most pleasant places on earth to think, sit, play cards, eat, or just catch a breeze . . . the perfect place to put you in touch with the sights and sounds of nature while allowing you to enjoy indoor comfort. In that way, they’re the best of both worlds.

Overall, the Gracious Moose Lodge offers six bedrooms, four baths, exceptionally well-equipped kitchen, casual dining area, a beautiful, open living room on the main level, two screened porches, utility room, and an extra spacious, comfortably furnished den/game room on the lower level. This den/game room is perfect for entertaining as it includes an ample supply of movies and games, an extra refrigerator, double sink, large snack bar and serving area. Also, there is a gas grill just outside the back door.

In addition to the enjoyment of living a few days in this extraordinary house, all guests have access to the neighborhood Community Swimming Pool with its wide lounging deck, and the picturesque Club House with pool table, media room, and exercise room. The Clubhouse can also be reserved for special group gatherings.

We hope you will come and stay at the Gracious Moose Lodge. Then, when you leave, we hope you will say there’s not one thing that feels pretentious about this house. It’s uniquely comforting, relaxed and natural.

 

Bear Trail Lodge

Love where you live on vacation. Bear Trail Lodge is that place. Everyone needs to have one special vacation place where it’s about the moments you share and the memories you’ll enjoy the rest of your life.

Perhaps a little history will help you understand why we believe our Bear Trail Lodge is that perfect place for you, your family and friends. Some of my happiest childhood memories were of the times I spent vacationing with my Grandparents in Branson. When I had children of my own, and then grandchildren, we kept vacationing in Branson because I wanted them to have the same wonderful experiences for themselves. A few years ago my adult children and I decided to make it possible for other families to have a place where they could establish vacation traditions as meaningful as ours. As a result, we built Bear Trail Lodge and have now made it available to you.

You’ll find Bear Trail Lodge located on a quaint little street in the Branson Canyon development just off Hwy 65. Lifestyle here is for all generations and is slow, easy and relaxed. Yet it is only minutes away from Table Rock Lake with boating and fishing, the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course at Top of the Rock, the Branson Airport, and all the exciting energy of the Branson Strip and Branson Landing.
The interior of Bear Trail Lodge was professionally decorated and tastefully depicts the genre of a mountain lodge. It is built on three levels with the main floor and entrance being at street level.

One side of this main level is designed with an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings for the fully equipped Kitchen, large Dining Area, and cozy Living Room with fireplace. The back door opens onto the upper Deck which has a gas grill and offers a beautiful view of the vast natural wooded area. The other side of this main level is the location of one of the Master Bedroom Suites with luxury Bath, and a second King Bedroom with private Bath.

The lower (first) level includes the second Master Bedroom Suite and Bath, another King Bedroom and Bath, a Utility Room with large capacity washer and dryer, and an unusually spacious Den/Game Room. This room provides an abundance of comfortable seating and is equipped with almost every entertainment amenity you can imagine. It opens onto the lower Deck which is only a few steps from the Bridge leading to the Branson Canyon Nature Trail.

The upper (third) level houses one King Bedroom, one Bedroom with two sets of bunkbeds, one full Bath, and the Li’l Cowpokes Hideaway, a small play area for children. All the Bedrooms are furnished with luxurious linens and equipped with flat screen TV’s and DVD players.

We thought it would add a personal touch and a little fun if each of our guests could select a Bedroom which most fit his or her personality. That’s the reason each Bedroom has its own name with furnishings and accessories to create the appropriate venue — Mama Bear’s, Birdhouse, Rawhide, Haciendo, Hunting and Fishing, and the Bear Camp Bunkhouse. Choose the one you prefer for your vacation enjoyment and make it playful, relaxing, peaceful, romantic, or whatever it is you want and need.

 

All guests also have access to the beautiful neighborhood Swimming Pool (May through September) and the Community Club House which is open all year. The Clubhouse provides a Pool Table, Media Room, and Exercise Room. It can also be reserved for special group gatherings.

We sincerely want your Vacation Place to be “Beary” special!
