For your epic family trip to the “Live Music Capital of the World” stay central to all that Branson has to offer while having a peaceful home-base to return to after an adventure-filled day when you stay at Stormy Point Village. With super quaint cottages and townhomes arranged like a well-to-do gated community, Stormy Point is styled after a classic Cape Cod seaside village. Spot the lobby by the attached lighthouse (climb up later for lovely views of the valley) where you’ll be greeted by fresh baked cookies and a friendly staffer. Once checked-in, head to your rental and park in your own driveway - no more fighting for parking or hiking across huge lots! It won’t be long before the kids are begging to hit the pools, so grab sunblock and snacks and head out. Pirate’s Cove, the onsite waterpark, will keep the kiddos busy for hours. Watch them splash around from the poolside bar and lounge while you sip a tropical beverage (try a Red Mermaid). If the weather’s not cooperating, no worries - there’s an indoor pool too. When the stomachs start rumbling discuss dinner plans with the crew. You can swing by one of the onsite restaurants, or head back to the cottage to whip up a hearty homecooked meal. Each rental has a barbecue on the patio, so have your self-proclaimed grillmaster tend to some steaks while you prep sides inside. After tykes have gone to bed, have a nightcap out on the patio and toast to a vacation well-planned.

Two- and three-bedroom cottages are wonderfully appointed and tastefully decorated in a New England nautical style. White walls, hardwood floors and accents of blues and beige create a bright and serene setting for your getaway. Fully equipped kitchens feature everything you need to embrace your inner chef. So sit down to a DIY dinner party with the crew at the dining table, or take your meal out on the furnished patio. In-unit washer/dryer lets you pack light. A roomy living area with cushy couches, cozy fireplace and flat screen TV makes an inviting space for downtime with the crew. Bring along a few favorite DVDs, stock up on microwave popcorn, and settle in for a movie marathon.

Nestled in the scenic Ozark Mountains but just a short drive from the 76 Strip, Stormy Point Village is a prime locale for both pop-culture fans and active outdoorsmen. Drive into town to check out the famous Branson Theatre District with its forty-nine different shows and attractions, including famous dinner theatre experience Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede. Or head to the Titanic Museum for an immersive experience in a half-size replica of the ill-fated ship. Enjoy the great outdoors with fishing at Table Rock Lake, hiking or biking Storm Point’s various trails, or golfing at one of ten (that’s right, ten) championship golf courses in the area.
