Passion Play Trip

[maryinecho]

We are planning on going to the Great Passion Play. How long does it take to get back to Branson after the show is over? Or shoud we get a hotel in Eureka Springs? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I believe it about an hour give or take just depends on traffic

We are possibly considering staying the night there maybe at Statue Road Inn next to the Passion Play.

I would stay in Eureka Springs. It is about an hour and the road is a little curvy. I know they have done some work, and it has been a while for us. But I would stay in Eureka Springs. There are lots of things to do there as well. Make sure you do the Holy Land Tour while at the Passion Play Grounds.

I would definitely spend the night in Eureka. I've made that drive in the evening and when it is getting dark -- I think I would prefer to stay next time. There are all kinds of great places to stay in Eureka or if you want to drive back to Berryville -- also some nice little motels.

Completely agree with staying overnite.
Would also recommend Parables of the Potter if possible.
I am including the website just in case you haven't gone there yet.

I've stayed at Statue Road Inn before,and I like it. It's walking distance to the Passion Play. I've seen Passion Play 2 times & I love it.

Definitely stay in Eureka Springs. Winding roads at night and deer running across the road make for less than ideal driving conditions. I have stayed numerous times at the Apple Blossom Inn (479) 253-5552. It has always been very clean and comfortable- nothing fancy. It backs up to the trees with a great view into the woods. Very reasonably priced. But there are a number of nice motels in Eureka Springs and it is a fun and scenic place to visit. For more dough, the Holiday Inn Express is nice and they have an indoor pool. I don't have any experience with the Statue Road Inn.

Does the Apple Blossom have a pool?

There is no pool at Apple Blossom Inn. Oh, I forgot to mention that all the rooms there are non-smoking.

Non smoking, heh? Great to know that. We stayed at the Krystal Aire in Springfield earlier this year and it is also non-smoking -- it was really nice and not having to worry about hubby being able to really breathe was nice too.

Now I'm not going to start any debates here -- we both used to smoke, but had to quit because of health reasons and now if either of us are in a place that has a lot of smoke or where people smoke a lot -- neither of us can breathe very well. So knowing that there are a few places that are non-smoking -- makes it really nice for us.

Thanks for letting us know this.
