According to a recent article in The Branson Daily News, a $250 million project is underway in Hollister, Missouri.

The new venture will be named Wilderness in the Ozarks. Located just off U.S. Highway 65, it will include 600 hotel suites that will surround an 80,000 square foot indoor waterpark and another four acres of outdoor water park. In addition, there are plans for cabins, an entertainment center, two sit-down restaurants, three fast-food venues, a Holiday Inn Express and Wyndham Garden Inn, and 35,000 square feet of retail space.

The expected completion date for the resort and waterpark is December 2009.
