The Fast Easy Way To Finding The Best Lodging & Recreation Prices
For several good reasons tourism operations may not always publish their best prices. Some keep hot deals low keyed for competitive reasons. Others test new price points before publishing. If business is good there will be fewer bargains, but there are reasons other than slow times to offer hot deals. How do you find these unpublished bargains?

Phoning each business takes too much time. That's why we developed the 2Cooleys Vacation Deal Finder. Fill out the form. As soon as you click the submit button your needs are instantly emailed to several area tourism businesses. If they have what you want, they respond with information and any deals they may have going. Some will have deals, others will not. And even that can change from week to week. You just don't know until you ask!

The email process saves you a lot of time, and you find the best unpublished prices. Your name is not added to any lists. Each operator responds one time to your request. You'll get several responses over a 24 hour period. Pick the best offer and save!

FAQs About Lodging & Recreation in the Ozark Mountains

Where is the Twin Lakes Area of the Arkansas and Missouri Ozark Mountains?
The name is taken from Bull Shoals Lake and Norfork Lake. Both lakes stretch across the Arkansas-Missouri state line. The White River also winds its way across the state line. The Buffalo River, and North Fork River are also in the north central Arkansas Ozark Mountains.

What Is There To Do In The Ozarks?
The primary attraction is outdoor recreation. Hiking, fishing, horseback riding, ATV trails, canoeing, nature photography, birding, hunting, boating, swimming, wakeboarding, rock climbing, exploring back roads, historic sites, and just plain relaxing on the water are the main activities. The Twin Lakes area has several good restaurants, antique and craft shopping, and most of the civil amenities you'd expect.

Visit A Lake, A River, A Forest - Or All Three?
The Ozark Mountains cover a large area so it can be hard to decide where in the Ozarks to vacation. There are river, lake, and forest destinations all having resorts and recreation. The good news is that no matter which type of destination you choose, you can enjoy the other two during your vacation. Lake resorts have guests who go trout fishing on the rivers. River resorts have guests who spend a day or two on the lakes. Hiking trails and old logging roads in public forests are common to both lake and river destinations.

Help In Planning Your Activities & Lodging Your best source of vacation planning assistance is from the individual lodging and recreation providers. Because you are normally communicating with the owners, you are talking to the most motivated and service oriented decision makers. If you want to ensure a really good time, and to get your dollar's worth, contact three or four of these operators by email or by phone. Tell them what you are interested in and they'll share ideas and prices. You'll soon find an operator you can relate to, and who has what you want at a price you like. Here are a few suggestions. First, be reasonable. Know that most are already offering lodging and activities at prices about as low as they can go. The savings come in the combination of lodging and activities. Keep in mind that insurance policies, safety issues, weather, and other factors operators can't control also drive their policies and limitations. What To Expect For The Price You Pay There are economy, mid-range, and high end resorts, bed and breakfasts, motels, etc. On the economic end cabins and rooms are smaller, the furnishings older. As long as everything has been kept clean and in good repair, "older" is comfortable. Many families prefer to stay at economical lodging because what they save on lodging they can spend on boat rentals, meals, etc. The mid-priced facilities, in most cases, will have larger newer furniture and appliances, and larger, newer bedding. Kitchens generally will be larger with more counter space. Bathrooms will be larger as well. Our best recommendation is don't shop by price alone. Shop by value received for dollars paid. Compare apples to apples. For example, if you are comparing prices on cabins, compare what is in each cabin. Is it a kitchen cabin where you can sensibly cook and serve meals? If you don't plan on "cooking in" very much, then all you need is a small range and refrigerator, or maybe just a "sleeping room". But if you plan on cooking most of your meals, you'll want a larger kitchen cabin. While the larger cabin will cost a little more, consider the money you'll save by not eating all your meals in restaurants.
