LAST Weekend for Our Fall Festival! 🍁

We have been having a blast at our Thunder Mountain Fall Festival this year! If you haven't had the chance to join in on the fun fall activities at Bridal Cave, it's not too late! Our Fall Festival at the Lake of the Ozarks will be open on Saturday and Sunday but it will be your last chance until next year. Why not bring your whole family out for some Family Fun...As It Should Be!


Exciting Demonstrations and Live Music! 

As part of our Fall Festival, we have some exciting demonstrations and live music in the park! From 12pm to 3pm the extremely talented Bluegrass Duo Jim & Darlene will be in the park playing bluegrass music.

Have Lunch at Bridal Cave 

When you make a day of our Fall Festival, you can even have lunch here on Saturday! This Saturday, The Broken Rib Food Truck will be parked in the parking lot serving up some delicious BBQ and other treats.


Double the Family FUN! 

This weekend is the last weekend for our fall festival and every visitor gets to take home a FREE pumpkin when they purchase a ticket to the cave! Double your family time when you take home a pumpkin and spend the evening carving pumpkins! Bridal Cave and Thunder Mountain Park even have a few tips for successfully carving pumpkins below!


Pumpkin Carving Tips 

Cut the Pumpkin from the Bottom 

When you cut from the bottom, a lot of the seeds and pumpkin guts will come out when you pull the bottom off. Plus, when you cut from the bottom, the top of your pumpkin will stay intact and you won't have a line where you cut the top off.

Trace Your Design First 

If you want the perfect jack-o-lantern this year, it's best to draw out your design first before you get the carving kit out. You can draw your favorite design or even tape a stencil down. 

Carving with Young Kiddos? 

If you have young children, sharp carving utensils may not be the best idea. If you are set on carving your gourd, let them help by scooping out the seeds, cleaning the outside, and drawing their own design! If you are worried about having sharp tools out, you can still have fun with your pumpkins! Break out the paints, glitter, and stickers and let them decorate the outside.


LAST CHANCE For Our Fall Festival! 

This weekend will be the last chance to come to our fall festival and the weather is going to be perfect and the fall colors should be at their peak. With the leaves changing, our scenic attraction at the Lake of the Ozarks will be gorgeous! If you are going to miss the Fall Festival this year, no worries because our Lake of the Ozarks Attraction is open all year long! Our cave stays a constant 60 degrees, so no matter what the weather is like outside, the inside of the cave is always a comfortable temperature. We hope to see you this weekend at our Fall Festival, but if you can't make it, come to visit soon!

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 Thunder Mountain before 1950 A unique, rural attra

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 being the first person to publish the now famous legend of Brida
