Another Great visit - Relaxation just off the Branson Strip…read more - - - - - - - - September, 2025 Visit Short Summary: Great property near everything yet can and relaxing. Located on the Yellow Route and close to Reza Theater, the Titanic, and about 15 minutes from Salt Lake City- - -Additional information : My wonderful wife planned a getaway to Branson Labor Day weekend 2025, and we had a great time. Each time we've visited, we have stayed at Willow Ridge. We have typically been in rooms near the pool; this trip on the 5th floor with a view away from the pool, to the south. We hadn't realized when we scheduled the trip, but this 2025 Labor Day weekend, Branson hosted the US Navy Blue Angels for the first time, and we could see the show from our balcony - wonderful! - - - The property - - - Three buildings; 5 floors apiece. You can see the Branson Strip (Hw 76) but you don't hear the commotion. To the south is a great view of the Ozark hills.- - -The room- - -The rooms are standard MVCI / Marriott Vacation Club rooms:- 2 bedrooms, one king and two full sized beds- 2 bathrooms- Laundry- Kitchens with servings for 8 and all the utensils you need; refrigerator, dishwasher, stove, microwave and coffee machine.. with coffee available; just ask housekeeping for more- Patio table and chairs with a view- nice!Recommendation: bring a Bluetooth speaker for music.- - - Activities- - -In the main building there is football, ping pong / table tennis, an exercise room, a place for kids to have fun, and more. We spent most of our time at the pool; there are hot tubs. We also played a round of disc golf - this seems to be a simple course, but it does have surprising challenges; more MVCIs should have disc golf like Willow Ridge does!- - - MarketPlace- - -The MarketPlace is in the lobby; is a smaller shop. For more groceries, go to Rhodes Price Chopper, in the same parking lot as Walmart: ... leave the Marriott, and turn left/east on the Yellow Route ... at Green Mtn Drive, Yellow Route turns right/south; continue straight on Green Mtn. Dr. ... and at the top of the hill you'll see the Branson Strip is just ahead; look right and turn into the parking lot - - - Thank you, Willow Ridge! - - - ----- ----- -----

No Frills, No Complaints -- Perfect for a Branson Overnight…read more We were in town to catch "David" at the Sight & Sound Theatre (absolutely incredible, by the way), and all we really needed was a clean, affordable place to crash for the night. The Branson Ozarks Inn, now operating as a Days Inn by Wyndham, fit the bill perfectly. Location was a huge win -- the theatre was just a few blocks away, so we didn't have to deal with any hassle getting there. Check-in was quick and painless, and the front desk staff were friendly and welcoming right from the start. Is the place a little dated? Sure. But you can tell they're in the middle of making upgrades, and the effort shows. Our room was clean and comfortable, which is really all that matters for a one-night stay. We also appreciated the outdoor seating area -- a nice little touch for winding down after the show. This isn't a luxury resort and it doesn't pretend to be. At around $80 a night, you're getting solid value for your money, especially with how close it is to the theatre district. We'd absolutely stay here again next time Branson calls us back.

Especially enjoyed a couple of nights sitting on the upper level porch overlooking the downtown area and the walkable location to restaurants and shopping. The linens and towels were nice, but the mattress in our room has seen its better days. It was completely caved in along the edge where you sit to get into bed and in the middle and while comfy soft it was impossible to sleep on your stomach. After first night I asked if we could have another room or if perhaps the mattress could be flipped. They said another room was not open, so they would flip the mattress. This only brought a little relief as I still couldn't sleep on my stomach and now the mattress sloped from the middle to the pillow area, elevating from the middle of the bed to our feet. No idea how the other room mattresses were. If you are a side or back sleeper perhaps this would be no issue for you. We slept in the Notebook room.

I booked this room well over a month ago and requested a very clean and quiet area room on the 1st or top floor. They did not have either and put me on the 3rd floor. I checked in for a five-night stay. I woke up on the second morning with bedbug bites all over my upper body. I informed the front desk, and they checked the room and found an infestation behind my headboard. They moved us from room 310 to 424 and took one night's charge off our bill. I asked for and got an incident report from the front desk and filled it out. The following day, I went to get it signed and was very rudely helped(?) by the Assistant. Mgr. (Kimberly Dixon). She grabbed the form and scribbled on it so hard that it ripped the form, and she just tossed it back to me. I decided to cut our trip short and check out a day early. Now, after I got home, I checked my credit card account, and they charged another $219.20. I immediately called the hotel to see what the additional charge was for. The front desk person I talked to said she did not know and to call back the next day to speak with the manager. A few minutes later, she called me and said the charge was for damage to the headboard caused by rubbing alcohol. I called the assistant manager the next day, and she said the same thing. She said that I sprayed rubbing alcohol on the headboard, damaging it. I asked her how she knew I sprayed alcohol. At first, she said she had a video recording of it, and I asked her if the hotel was recording my room. I asked her multiple times if my room was recorded. Then she started to change her story, saying that the housekeeper watched me spray. No way that happened since I always have the do not disturb sign on the door. And then she changed her story yet again that the housekeeper said that the headboard did not have any spots on it. She then stated that there would be no refund of the $219.20 and then hung up the phone. I came face to face with the manager and other desk personnel daily, and no one bothered to ask how I was doing or if I needed additional care. I have never suffered from bedbugs in my life, but I am still suffering from the itching and inflammation with mentally and physically exhausted from the entire experience. This is absolutely unacceptable and will not pay the $219.20 without any proof.. I have suffered, and this has caused me to shorten/ruin my trip. The managers and front desk personnel are very unkind, rude, and unprofessional. The appearance of the hotel is below Hampton Inn's standards. Would put -Stars if I could.

I like fluffy pillows. The mattress made too much noise when I turnover... sounds like springs, like a trampoline. Mattress is wore out. Shower is decent, but needs to be updated... kinda beat inside. Service; the service I received at check in was quick and fast. Super friendly on the night shift. But in the morning, KIMBERLY D really helped me out when I needed to switch hotels from Branson, Missouri to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Since I'm staying here on personal time and on Hilton Honors points. She allowed me to cancel my 2nd night and refunded my points since I checked out before 11am. She helped me out big time and made my stay pleasant. The area is super nice and clean. Though this hotel needs some updating in the room... it's not too bad... but the customer service makes up for it. 5 stars for a mediocre room should say something... because KIMBERLY D is a true professional

Response from this was very quick though. - Mattreses (double Queen room) probably the worse we've encountered at any hotel. You could see the depression in the middle of the mattresses as soon as you entered the room. - Sink had a minor leak under the counter at the shutoff valves - Toilet flushed poorly. - Heard multiple horror stories from other gueasts. Showers that took 15 minutes or more to drain, also low water pressure mentioned. - We had end room on north side, and the music from the aquarium could be heard inside our room randomly all afternoon into the early evening. Stay away from end rooms facing that direction. - Breakfast was ok - we've better enjoyed other hotel's breakfasts. Exact same breakfast menu for the 2 days we went - no variety. On the positive - -Staff very nice and responsive. - Room was very clean, but the mattress issue was too much to overcome.

The dining hall is beautifully adorned with cabin-esque motif and overlooks the campus and mountains. The menu has a great variety and notes items that are made by the students (e.g. butters and cakes). Their complimentary, fresh made bread basket with three types of butters was a fantastic start to the meal. We ordered the mushroom soup, the pork belly sandwich w/ fries, and the shrimp and grits. I will say that the pork belly po' boy was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life! I almost stayed in town longer on the second day just to order it again. The pork belly was smoky, tender, and sweet and paired so well with the grain mustard, pickled onions and arugula -- superb balance of flavors. My husband also noted the shrimp and grits was some of the best he's ever had. The shrimp and pork belly in the dish were perfectly cooked and the Cajun spices were well balanced. And we have to tell you to try their fresh desserts. The brown butter chocolate cake was a special ending to the meal. This is an excellent stop and our student server provided excellent service - they're doing a great job there and is a highly recommended of ours during your stop during your visit to Branson.

Pretty tight quarters for four people, but you don't come to Branson to sit in your room. Check in is advertised as 4pm. Day before arrival they called to say we could come get wristbands as early as noon then come check in at 4. Great! We got there at 3:30, room wasn't ready. Killed some time. Went back at 4. Still not ready. Kids were anxious to swim, which meant renting a locker for our clothes. Finally they called at 6 and said our room was ready. When pressed, they said checkin is "between 3 and 5, nothing is guaranteed." How about my money from 3pm to 6pm isn't guaranteed?! But I don't get that option. They also would not refund the $12 we spent on lockers that we had no choice but to use. The package we bought was EXPENSIVE. Every minute there counts. Next time I would stay at a nice hotel and get the day pass to the waterpark (which was great actually, just VERY potent with chlorine fumes).
