The place is Westgate Branson Woods Resort. Located on 145 beautiful, wooded acres in the heart of the Ozark Mountains, this vacation resort property just underwent a $3.2 million remodel a year ago. The newly renovated rooms feature light, airy decor, updated flooring, and luxury bathroom fixtures including new vanities, countertops and back-lit mirrors. The multi-million-dollar upgrade also brings an all-new spa to the outdoor pool, allowing visitors to enjoy a relaxing dip with a breathtaking view no matter the time of year.
Westgate Branson Woods Resort boasts a wide range of accommodations as well. Looking for a romantic getaway? Choose a studio villa - the perfect cozy little love nest for two. One bedroom villas sleep up to four guests, feature jetted tubs and fireplaces and are perfect for a family of four or a group of friends. Larger parties will enjoy the spacious two bedroom grand villa which includes a full kitchen, fireplace, furnished patio or balcony, and 1,400 square feet of space with room for up to eight guests. With 682 units, and both timeshare ownership and nightly rentals available, you can find the perfect accommodations for your group. The Westgate Branson Woods Resort has a sister property, Westgate Branson Lakes Resort, that underwent an $8.2 million resort renovation less than two years ago. The Westgate properties will not disappoint!
