Big Cedar Lodge

Our first family mini-vacation! Posing in front of our cabin..it was so cold!!
I felt so sorry for these poor ducks until Robbie reminded me that their feathers keep them very warm,,,they're looking for food and putting on a show for us.
We're driving around admiring the scenery...this is one of the lodges that has individual rooms and suites. Notice the fish sign!
Our cabin at Big Cedar. It has 2 rooms (a King and Queen), fireplace, kitchen and living room area! So nice to get away and "rough it" (at least this is my idea of "roughing it")!!

Last weekend we took a couple of days and headed to Branson for a mini-vacation. We love Big Cedar Lodge in the winter months because of it's outdoorsy feel. We've been coming here for 6 years and hope to continue the tradition especially since our family is growing. We've stayed in the lodges, Governor's Suite (that was a Blast) and cabins (both family and individual). We enjoy the cabins more than anything since they're private and have their own kitchen and living room. We also enjoy using the fireplace! I've never been snow skiing but I picture it to kinda be like this minus the slopes and tons of snow! Maybe one day we'll try that but for now I prefer to go to Big Cedar.
