Holly Lake Ranch





Ok so I took the kids on a road trip to Holly Lake Ranch this week. My parents have a timeshare in Branson that is BEAUTIFUL, but it was simply too far for Spring Break so they decided to trade for someplace relatively close. (2 1/2 hours) They were told this would be an equivalent resort to their own, so we where really looking forward to our vacation time there. WELL, let me tell you the person who said that flat out lied. This place was such a dump in comparison.A few examples...
The couches had a film of grime on them.
The master bedroom was open to the bathroom with mirrors all over the bathroom, including were the toilet was. Yeah picture that in your head.
The whole place felt very claustrophobic.
I could go on but you really don't want to know.

My poor parents had to have been livid, but we all tried to make the best of it.We spent as much time as possible outside. We took the kids on a nature hike. (Hailey was such a good sport during this.)We miniature golfed.(Cade more or less ran around and got in everyone's way, but he seemed to enjoy himself.) We took them to the playground and we let them "swim" in the tub.(see picture above) To them it was great and I'm so glad. They actually wanted to know why we were leaving early!
