Forget everything you think you know about Branson, Mo.  Before there were variety shows and tourist shops, this spectacular area has always had a lot more to offer.  A perfect example of the American Frontier, The Ozarks are home to beautiful lakes, amazing cave formations and glorious hilltop vistas including the landscape of Big Cedar Lodge, located in Ridgedale, Mo.  Just 10 minutes south of Branson, Big Cedar has long been the hallmark of true quality in the Ozarks.  Nestled on 800 spectacular acres along the shores of Table Rock Lake, Big Cedar has taken design influences from its breathtaking landscape and completed Missouri's newest conference center, Grandview Conference Center.

"The expansion of the Branson Airport has made our location economical and easily accessible to more people across the country.  Big Cedar is world-renowned for our genuine hospitality.  It was a smart decision to enhance our successful property with a new and larger conference facility," said Debbie Bennett, general manager.

The Grandview at Big Cedar, which opened last October 2008, can accommodate groups of up to 1,000 attendees.  Breathtaking views, unobstructed room design and the latest technology are solid features of the Grandview's conference space.  The facility also offers a full service audiovisual department, extensive banquet offerings and a well-qualified conference services team to attend to meeting planners and attendees.  The resort is a perfect setting for team building and social activities.

The room accommodations at Big Cedar are luxurious, with rustic charm, and offer many activities that are complimentary to on-property guests.  Rooming choices range from a standard queen room to a large three-bedroom cabin.  All accommodations are a reflection of gracious Ozarks hospitality and offer every luxury amenity that discerning guests would expect.

Big Cedar is a Preferred Hotel Property and a certified partner of Elite Meetings.
