Traveling with the whole family can be difficult. No matter how much energy you put into your preparation, it is never easy to please everyone. This is rarely more visible than when dealing with a task which many travelers dread more than any other: securing lodging. Luckily, there are plenty of hotels aiming to create an atmosphere that is enjoyable for guests of all ages in the “Live Entertainment Capital of the World.”
Village at Indian Point
Although one of the main draws of this hotel is its proximity to Silver Dollar City (Branson’s most visited attraction), the Village at Indian Point has so much more to offer your family. This rustic resort provides all of the beauty of nature—complete with water sports and a lush surrounding forest—all while being located just a short drive away from the city’s famed theatre district. The log cabin structure is made complete by the full fireplaces in the suites, but it's also modern enough to include whirlpool jets in the bathtubs.
Marriott’s Willow Ridge Lodge
While the name might suggest a sleepaway camp or a nature escape, the popular Willow Ridge Lodge has a great location in regards to seeing all that Branson has to offer. Make sure you pack swimsuits for your kids so that the whole family can enjoy any of the five swimming pools on the property. With a fully stocked game room and free wireless internet throughout the complex, the Willow Ridge Lodge had the entertainment of your children in mind during their planning.

Take advantage of the horseback riding that makes for a unique family getaway.
