Join Us In Welcoming The VFW Post 5923 Bunker Bar & Grill!

Bridal Cave & Thunder Mountain Park would like to join the community in congratulating VFW Post 5923 in Camdenton on the opening of their brand new building. This new location is not only for VFW members, but instead has been opened to the public and contains a brand new restaurant, the Bunker Bar & Grill. Dining at this home-style, family-friendly restaurant not only offers you a delicious meal, but also the chance to support the VFW organization and its members.

At one point, people were worried that this project would never come to be, but after three years of fundraising, hard work, and lots of volunteers, it finally opened its doors on August 3, 2017 and hosted a grand opening on September 3. It wasn't just the veterans and the VFW Auxiliary that stepped up to make this dream a reality, but also many generous local individuals and businesses, plus soldiers from Fort Leonard Wood. Many were eager to donate money, materials, time, and labor.

All of that teamwork resulted in a place that offers the general public a restaurant, bar, meeting room, hall rental, live music, games, and a place to meet up with friends and family. The entire building is smoke-free. The restaurant has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that is kid-friendly. You'll find home-style dishes on the menu to please everyone, including appetizers, salads, soups, sandwiches, and burgers. They even offer some incredible dinner specials each week. You can see a full menu by visiting www.VFWBunker.com. 

Inside the bar area, there is a large square bar that includes a special seat reserved for POW-MIA. You can enjoy a game of darts, pool, and even Keno. If you want to catch your favorite sports team in action, you can do so on the 15 HD TVs in the building.

The Bunker Bar & Grill is located at 63 VFW Road in Camdenton, just a short drive from our Lake of the Ozarks family attraction. Their hours (subject to change) are:

 Restaurant:
-Wed-Sat: 11 am - 7 pm
-Sunday: noon - 7 pm

 Bar:
-Wed-Thurs: 11 m - 11 pm
-Fri-Sat: 11 am - 1 am
-Sun: noon - 11 pm

 The next time you are in Camdenton, stop by and give this wonderful new restaurant and bar a try. Even though it is now open, there is still work to be done and monthly financial obligations to meet. Your patronage helps to make these things happen, and they cannot stress enough that everyone is welcome at the Bunker Bar & Grill. Just like Bridal Cave & Thunder Mountain Park, it's a place for all ages to gather together and enjoy a great time.

Explore Thunder Mountain Park

Image
The most scenic cave tour in Missouri is surrounded by the natural beauty of Thunder Mountain Park .  This incredible Lake of the Ozarks attraction  covers hundreds of acres.  It spreads over more than a mile of Lake of the Ozraks shoreline, a mile of highway frontage along Old Missouri Route 5, and all the acreage in between.  That is a lot of nature to be explored! Establishing the park Thunder Mountain Park was established in 1950 in order to protect the caves within it.  The amazing colors and incredible onyx formations inside of Bridal Cave  are all formed by minerals from rain water that seeps into the ground. This is a process called deposition.  Preserving the natural state of the park above the cave prevents any changes to the surface area, which could have a detrimental impact on the deposition process.  Protecting the surface area protects the water quality, which in turn protects the cave.     Aerial view of Thunde...

The History of Bridal Cave

Image
Bridal Cave has a very interesting past.  It's story goes back long before the Lake of the Ozarks was created.  As early as 8,000 BC, Native Americans were using caves in the area for shelter, and more than likely Bridal Cave was one of those used.  We will begin this tale with the first organized exploration over 150 years ago of what is now known as one the best attractions at the Lake of the Ozarks . Bridal Cave Visitors Center, 1968 1856   The first organized exploration of portions of Bridal Cave is recorded.  B.D. Dodson is credited with this feat.  The next major exploration is done by S.W. Burke four years later.   1894 Over 5400 acres of land is purchased by Colonel R.G. Scott.  That area is now known as Ha Ha Tonka State Park, and it includes Bridal Cave.  Colonel Scott is very impressed and wants to know how it got the name Bridal Cave, so he begins researching the subject.  He is credited for bein...
