…we were never<br />

more than 15 minutes<br />

from anything we<br />

wanted to do.<br />

That is steep but you’re buying convenience. There were<br />

no free nights <strong>for</strong> buying fuel.<br />

We traveled on a Saturday <strong>for</strong> our convenience and<br />

because the weather was so nice from Texas to Branson.<br />

That meant we were in Branson during an Iron Man/<br />

Woman competition on Sunday. Not the best time to be<br />

in a tourist destination. Besides the usual drive-in traffic<br />

<strong>for</strong> the weekend, we had to dodge joggers and bicycles<br />

<strong>for</strong> a day. The event seemed to be well-planned, but it<br />

blocked roads, intersections, and parts of downtown <strong>for</strong><br />

everyone else.<br />

I highly recommend learning the alternate roads<br />

around town be<strong>for</strong>e you start driving there. There are<br />

numerous routes around downtown. We were staying at<br />

the Chateau on The Lake and used every other road available<br />

to visit the areas of interest to us. Using the local map<br />

drawn with alternate roads we were never more than 15<br />

minutes from anything we wanted to do.<br />

The Chateau is very nice and I would rate it four stars.<br />

The food at all their facilities is expensive, as expected, but<br />

very good. The room was very nice. I recommend asking<br />

<strong>for</strong> one that’s not over the kitchen or you will not be able to<br />

use the balcony because of the cooking smells and noisy<br />

fans. Also, check <strong>for</strong> specials. We got three nights <strong>for</strong> the<br />

price of two. Other hotels in Branson offer similar deals,<br />

sometimes with free breakfast or show tickets.<br />
