Big Cedar Lodge

Located in the mountains that overlook Table Rock Lake, Big Cedar Lodge is a world class resort offering an extensive array of options for team building activities.

Fun Mountain is a 50,000-square-foot adventure complex that gives groups the opportunity to both compete and connect. Your team is bound to grow closer as they let loose through underwater themed bowling, racing on NASCAR inspired go-karts, playing classic arcade games, watching the big game in the sports lounge or dodging laser tag beams.

Team building activities start with fun ice breakers and an informal keynote address on the power of a positive team. Next, the action moves to the attraction floor. Prepare for a ropes course adventure where you or your partner are blindfolded, and then team building activities at Skyfall and in the laser maze.
