We have stayed at the Falls Village twice - a 1-bdrm unit in September'02, and a studio unit in June'04.
There are two (maybe more now) different floor plans... One has a screened deck with ceiling fan, I believe. We had the other one, with the corner-jacuzzi in the bedroom - NICE! When we stayed in this 1-bdrm unit, we were most impressed with how spacious it was. After a day of running around Branson, my husband and I enjoyed spreading out in different rooms. Sorry the photos aren't better, didn't think I'd be sharing them online, but they might help give you a better idea of the place. You will see that the balcony view isn't spectacular, but it was still nice to eat outside. September is a beautiful time of year to visit Branson.
In June of 2004, we opted for the little studio unit. My husband and I shared the king-size bed with our 2-yo daughter, and we folded out the sleeper-sofa for our 12-yo son. It was pretty "cozy"!!! We appreciated the kitchenette and round table for dining. There were two chairs, I believe, but one person sat on the bed's edge and one person sat on the ice chest. It was kind of like camping out! Everything was clean and in good working order. It was also very nice to have the washer and dryer, in the foyer. The studio unit does not have a balcony. Although we managed, I really would not recommend it for a family of four... it would function much better as "the adjoining grandparents' room" of a 2-bdrm unit!
A 2-bdrm unit would be the 1-bdrm (described first) combined with the studio unit. A double-locked door separates them, otherwise. They share a little foyer with full-size washer and dryer, and a door to the outside.
We will undoubtedly return to the Falls Village, because we love Branson. In Branson, we stay busy all day - shopping, shows, Silver Dollar City, Celebration City, museums, etc. We aren't looking for a resort to loll around; we just want to spread out (or crash) in the evenings, enjoy some meals, maybe swim. We found the outdoor pool to be nice, large, and clean.
One thing to take note of, when reserving a unit, is to ask if the unit is at "parking lot level." Both of ours were on the second floor, but this was parking lot level - we walked straight across a ramp from the parking lot. You had to walk down a flight of stairs to get to the first floor, or up one flight of stairs to get to the third floor. There was not an elevator.
