The Ozarker Lodge – A boutique Hotel Experience In Branson, MO

The Ozarker Lodge, located in the heart of Branson, is the first true boutique hotel experience in the region.

Nestled in a valley, surrounded by the idyllic landscape of the Ozark mountains, it’s perfect for any Branson getaway offering vintage yet modern accommodations.

We recently enjoyed a weekend getaway and explored it all. When we pulled into the lodge we were greeted by a vintage Wagoneer topped with a tree. Such an instagrammable spot!

Every single exterior detail of the lodge was done so well. I couldn’t wait to get inside and check out the lobby area.

I was so pleasantly surprised with the cozy lobby. It’s the spot to enjoy a taste of local flavors at Storeroom, The Ozarker Lodge’s coffee and wine bar.

With specialty coffee, rotating beer on tap, natural wines, merch, and local treats such as Grandma Ruth’s Cinnamon Rolls and Silver Dollar City’s salt-water taffy, there’s something for everyone!

I love that they have lots of board games for families and decorate for holidays to make everything feel so festive!

The newly-renovated rooms are vintage yet modern – and better than any other motor lodge I’ve visited.

Our double queen room was comfortable and perfect for four guests and a dog. We appreciated the modern updates, decor choices, and toiletries.

All rooms are equipped with comfortable beds, complimentary Wifi, Bluetooth speakers, and TVs.

A welcome gift including a bottle of wine, salt-water taffy, and treats and a handkerchief for our dog, Indy were waiting for us in our room.

We always like to bring our dog along whenever possible, so very happy it was a dog friendly trip!

After unpacking, we headed out to check the property – this sign was correct, but I’d lean more toward “extreme.” 🙂

The heated outdoor pool was absolutely amazing, and in my opinion one of the best features! We could have easily stayed there the whole trip, and I’m not a huge pool person, so that says something.

We lucked out on the pool timing since it usually closes for the season in early January. If you’re visiting in the cold months, you’ll want to call the lodge to check on the pool status.

The Ozarker Lodge heated pool felt almost like a hot tub, which was such a wonderful surprise.

The two creekside soaking hot tubs were such a nice perk – amazing and private.

There are wood and gas fire pits throughout the property to gather around and warm up during the cold months.

We reserved a fire pit for a two-hour private experience with friends, and were treated to s’mores kits, charcuterie board, and a bottle of wine.

The wood burning fire pits are located along the creek, which entertained the kids ad provided a beautiful backdrop for the adults.

There isn’t a bad view on the entire property, and we even caught a gorgeous sunset!

We loved the music playing at the pool and throughout the property. Both kids and adults flocked to it each evening, which was so fun.

After our night swim we headed back to the lobby to play board games and order some wine and beer from the bar.

Of course I had to capture The Ozarker Lodge Wagoneer at night, which was even more beautiful than the daytime view.

The following morning before heading out on a hike, we enjoyed some Grandma Ruth’s Cinnamon Rolls, coffee, and breakfast sandwiches. We love a daily complimentary continental breakfast – always a nice way to start the day.

I was a big fan of all the merch and ]purchased a water bottle, two stickers, and a mini pennant flag.

The pushpin map seeing where all guests are coming from was a fun touch as well!

On New Year’s Eve we hung out in the lobby and enjoyed a live musician, complimentary Prosecco, and some tasty snacks.

The kids and dog enjoyed some more fire pit time.

The following morning we begrudgingly checked out and headed home. We truly enjoyed our stay, and will most definitely be back.

The Ozarker Lodge was somehow even better in person, which rarely happens – the photos don’t do it justice!

Every single detail from the music selection to the decor was so impressive, and the staff was so kind and hardworking.
