I don’t know what kind of event this is - and this is further than 45 minutes

But based on what you are saying I would 100% reach out to the owner of this place and see if he would be up to rent it out - it awesome

It’s an hour away - I got down voted for 15 minutes

I stand by my recommendation- they have a building that can be used for weather. A blacksmith, a pottery shop, and a partially built castle

The place is awesome

It looks like it would be very cool to visit! But if I'm reading this correctly, it's been closed since 2012? As much as I would LOVE to hold an event here, it's too primitive for what we need, as I don't see any structures that can hold 150 people and all their stuff - would need electricity and plumbing. Thank you for the recommendation though! I wonder if anyone will ever pick up the project again.

I have actually filmed there and the owners were very accommodating at the time - I know one of them has a daughter who lived near Branson

They have a visitors center we used for meals and staging - I seem to remember it being a decent size but can’t say for certain as it was about 12 years ago

It’s worth keeping on a back up list - lots of room for tents, if they have maintained the bathrooms no need for portapotties, and event tents could be attached to the visitors center

When we filmed there we used the space for free in the off season and I fell in love

Currently trying to convince my husband it would be worth buying and trying to find investors 😂
