Christmas Activites at Lake of the Ozarks, MO

November 26, 2011 – 3:52 am

Our Osage Beach Bed and Breakfast is pleased to share these three Christmas Season activities with you. Follow Santa and his elves along Highway 54 in Osage Beach on Saturday, November 26th as they light up the Lake! It’s the annual Lake Holiday Lights Caravan, beginning at the Intersection of State Route KK and Highway 54 at 5:30PM. The caravan ends below Bagnell Dam with a bonfire, holiday entertainment and a patriotic salute. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there to visit with all the good little boys and girls! Then come back to our Lake Ozark area bed and breakfast, the Inn at Harbour Ridge, and hop into your twosome tubby, your private starlit hot tub or snuggle into your featherbed and watch a movie!

Saturday, December 3rd is the 31st Annual School of the Osage Holiday Bazaar at the Osage High School on Highway 42. Bazaar hours are from 9AM to 3PM, leaving you time for a little retail therapy at Marshall’s Home Goods or the Osage Beach Premium Outlets.

Saturday, December 10th at 1PM the 27th Annual Lake Area Christmas Parade starts by Paul’s Grocery Store and travels to Lake Ozark’s Bagnell Dam. Bands, floats, Christmas Magic for all!

Christmas shopping means a trip to Lake of the Ozarks and Osage Beach! Plan your shopping excursion during the week when the lines are shorter and the clerks are ready to be your personal shoppers. Our Inn at Harbour Ridge shopping itinerary includes the Osage Beach Premium Outlets (of course) and some innsider innformation from there, a locator map for Country Crossroads, Evergreen, and Victoria Station, local attractions you won’t want to miss! We also pinpoint Randy’s Frozen Custard and Starbucks for you….just in case you need a little instant energy!

When planning your next Lake of the Ozarks getaway we suggest you allow yourselves time to enjoy the Lake’s special Christmas activities and a stay at the Lake’s most inviting Bed and Breakfast, the Inn at Harbour Ridge.

Happy Hearts! Happy Holidays!

Lake of the Ozarks Activities Osage Beach osage beach bed and breakfast

Beatlemania Concert at the Lake of the Ozarks

March 6, 2011 – 12:47 am

The curtain is about to go up on another sold out performance of the world’s best Beatles tribute band! The Liverpool Legends have been invited back to the Lake of the Ozarks and Main Street Music Hall in Osage Beach for the third straight year. When they’re not selling out shows here at the Lake or other venues around the world, the Liverpool Legends perform in Branson at the Mansion Theatre. Just a handful of seats remain for tonight’s, March 5th, 2011, 8PM performance. Hurry! Grab your honey, sing out “I want to hold your hand” and head for Osage Beach, Missouri!

Louise Harrison, big sis of the late Beatle George Harrison, personally selected the four talented musicians you’ll see performing. If they look like, sound like, and play like the Beatles??? Could it be??? Come see for yourself who looks most like the real thing. Will you say it’s John, Paul, George, or Ringo?

The Liverpool Legends have been voted the Best Band and the Best Show in Branson numerous times. The show spans the British invasion and the solo years,too. Check out the costumes, vintage instruments and special effects. As owner of the award winning Inn at Harbour Ridge Bed and Breakfast I think you’ll be as amazed as I was at their astonishing attention to musical detail!

Put on your best British accent, pull your 60s clothes out of the closet and come for a night you’ll long remember. It’s not too late for a magical mystical tour to Lake of the Ozarks. You may even see a yellow submarine or strawberry fields along the way. . .

Tickets are $25 for adults and $30 for premium seating. This special Lake event is sponsored by the Tri-County Lodging Association, promoting Central Missouri’s Lake of the Ozarks. You’ll love the Lake – yah, yah, yah!
