Hi! I am visiting Missouri next summer with my mom. We have been trying to remember where we lived to go back and see the area. Hoping somehow someone knows the area and my random memories make sense.

We lived about 30min drive from Branson right off of Bull Shoalls Lake. We would take a dirt road that had a sign that said "99 curves". And we would always try to count them. There was a fairly steep dirt road down to the lake where a small dock was. Some cabins to rent off to the left and house within the trees. My house was near the top of the steep hill.
If I could just pinpoint the dirt road with the 99 curves I could probably find it.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry for the poor descriptions, I was young. 😁

Thank you

Curiosity seeking,
Nikki

I checked with a few friends that live around the Bull Shoals Lake - one in Missouri and the other in Arkansas but neither recognized your clues. Sorry I could not help but enjoy your trip. You are visiting some beautiful country!

Nikki, Across Taneycomo Lake from the Branson Landing is the road that goes to Forsyth. Just a few miles along that road is several roads that go a short distance to Bull Shoals Lake.

Good luck on your hunt!

Thanks for the responses. I tried getting information from my mom, but she doesn't remember much either. I will try my brother and mom again. See if we can figure it out. Thanks again. I can't wait to visit again. My kids think I am crazy when I "crave" a trip to Branson. Old memories with grandparents and it's just so easy to feel country again!
