"WE RENTED THIS HOME FOR A FAMILY GET TOGETHER IN NOVEMBER TO
SEE THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS IN BRANSON. WE LOVED THE PLACE. YOU ARE
ALWAYS A LITTLE UNSURE WHEN YOU BOOK SOMETHING ONLINE BUT WE
WERE SO IMPRESSED. WE WERE LOOKING FOR A RELAXING IN THE WOODS
TYPE OF WEEKEND AND IT WAS AWESOME. WE MADE CHRISTMAS COOKIES,
LISTENED TO CHRISTMAS MUSIC AND WATCHED CHRISTMAS VIDEOS. THE
BEDS WERE AWESOME. WE WANTED TO PACK THEM UP WITH OUR LUGGAGE
AND TAKE THEM HOME TOO. THE OPENNESS WAS GREAT IN THE HOUSE AND
BIG ENOUGH SO IT DID NOT SEEM CROWDED AT ALL. WE WILL DEFINATELY
BE PUTTING THIS PLACE BACK ON OUR AGENDA FOR OUR FAMILY AGAIN.
THE GUYS BUILT THEM A FIRE DOWN BY THE WATER IN THE FIRE PIT AND
FISHED OFF THE SHORE. AWESOME PLACE TO STAY."

"What a great place. There were 12 of us on a fishing trip and there was more than enough
room. The kitchen is the best, the beds are perfect and what can you say about the tv's. The
decor with the moose head and the hardwood floors made it feel like you were in the
mountains. One thing that was amazing was the showers. The pressure and the tempature
were outstanding. I would highly reccomend staying here. We will be back. Thanks
Micheal."

"I was a guest at Red Elk Lodge along with 23 other ladies. We enjoy an annual overnight
trip together and have stayed at various lodges around northern Arkansas. Several things
struck me as I walked in the door upon arrival:
**Wood everywhere (walls and floors) and the pleasant smell of wood upon entering.
**Nice furniture throughout (very nice bedding.)
**Modern kitchen fully equipped.
**Large, open floor plan in the kitchen/great room with windows and sliding glass doors
encompasing three sides of the room which allowed the scenery to be enjoyed."
"My family and I had so much FUN. The Red Elk Lodge home was so BEAUTIFUL. When
we first walked into the home we were "speechless." The floor plan was very open. Lots
of room for everything and everyone. The air conditioner in the home was SUPER
GREAT. When my family and I go back to Branson we will definately stay at The Red Elk
Lodge."
"The stay was awesome! No complaints,the house is gorgeous, the beds and rooms are
great! Perfect spot on the lake for families. We had six families with 12 kids and had plenty
of room and fun! Thank you Mike! We will be back!"
"We spent 5 nights at the Red Elk Lodge and it was fantastic! There was plenty of room for
everyone and allowed for privacy, if wanted. The beds were so comfortable - we all got
great nights' sleep. The pictures on the website don't do justice to the house, so if you're
hesitating about booking, do it NOW! You won't regret it. The memories our family made
during our time there will be ones we'll always have - sitting around the fire by the lake
roasting marshmellows, cooking dinner together in the beautiful kitchen, listening to the
birds and the frogs late at night, catching the raccoons eating our leftovers, and especially
the good time we had with our family. I would love to go back today!"
"I loved how secluded the location was. It was a very quiet and relaxing setting that really
allowed us to kick back and enjoy our vacation. Having the boat launch nearby was a plus
as well, I could launch my boat and drive it right up to the shore behind the house to load
up my supplies for the day out on the lake. The furnishings inside are very impressive, the
photos on the website do not do that place justice. A very large common room/dining area
with a huge TV that we could even watch from the dining room table. And with nice soft
beds in all the rooms it did not matter which room we were in, we were all comfortable.
The Branson strip was not far away either so when we wanted to go shopping or have a
night on the town it was not that far of a drive. Overall it was a great place to stay. Great
location and amazing accomodations, thanks for letting us stay at The Red Elk Lodge!"

"The Lodge is just as advertised-Great! The interior is fantastic, especially cooking in
the incredible kitchen while the family relaxes in the great room or on the deck."
"The Lodge is very large and accomodated our family very well. The Lodge is very
secluded and quiet. Beware of deer on the road at dusk."

We had a great time and really enjoyed your beautiful lodge.  My family loved
the house, comfortable bedrooms, great kitchen, giant dining table, big
televisions, awesome water pressure in the shower, and the privacy/seclusion.

Our interpretation for future golf recommendations if interested:

Branson Creek – Awesome!!  We played 36 holes and tried to play again on
last day but they were booked. One of our favorites ever and we play all over
the country.

Payne Stewart Golf Club – Excellent course and great condition.

Murder Rock – Fair.  Cheaper than the others but well worth the extra $20 or so
to play the others.
