This Hidden Resort In Missouri Is The Perfect Place To Get Away From It All

Missouri has some of the most beautiful trails and small towns to escape to when you're looking to get away from it all. But this resort right here, is something truly special. Big Cedar Lodge has been ranked by Travel + Leisure as the #1 resort in the Midwest. Tucked away in the Ozark Mountains, it serves as the perfect retreat from busy city life or the average day at work.

As America’s premier wilderness resort, Big Cedar Lodge

is sprawled across more than 800 acres in the heart of Missouri’s

ruggedly serene Ozark Mountains.

The Lodge sits on Table Rock Lake with beautiful views of the water and mountains below.

Spend the night in a private cabin or cottage or in the luxurious lodge.

The historic Worman House used to serve as a country retreat for Frisco Railroad executive Harry Worman. Today, it's used as a banquet space for guests who reserve it beforehand.

Start your morning off with some relaxing yoga. The Lodge offers 45-minute yoga sessions for overnight guests.

Let yourself relax a bit at Cedar Creek Spa. This 18,000 square-foot, world-class spa features a one-of-a-kind Vichy shower treatment, full-body massage jets in the indoor grotto pool, a full-service salon and more.

On warmer days, cool off in their refreshing pool.

Hungry? Then head over to Osage Restaurant for delicious American cuisine and sweeping views of the Ozark Mountains.

You'll never get bored at Cedar Lodge. They encourage physical activity and even have a beach volleyball court on-site.

If you're up for a round of golf, you're in luck. Top Of The Rock, a nearby attraction, is home to one of the most beautiful golf courses in the country.
