Branson and Lake of Ozarks Trip

[thisISnextyear]

Some quick hit Branson suggestions(some have already been mentioned)

Restaurants

Breakfast at Billy Gail’s is a must.
Big D’s barbecue
Danna’s BBQ and burger shop - Branson West
Grand Country Buffet
Fall Creek is good but so is Flat Creek in Caoe Fair
Dinner cruise on Branson Belle

Entertainment
Fritz’s
Fish Hatchery on lake Taneycomo
Branson Landing shopping
Dewey Short Visitor Center at the Damn
Silver Dollar City
White Water
Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede is a fun show but so are others depending upon you preferences
Titanic Museum
Mini golf
Go Karts
Zip lining
Golf
Talking Rocks Cavern
Shepherd of the Hills
Jetboat your on Taneycomo

As someone mentioned the water activities on Table Rock are fairly limited if you don’t have a boat but the water is incredible and like nothing you’ll experience around here. Rent a boat or jet skis for a day or two and enjoy the heck out of it and go to divers bluff and jump off the cliffs. The water in Taneycomo is incredibly cold coming out of the bottom of the 200+ foot deep lake but it’s neat to see and compare the two.

Also have plenty of recommendations for places to stay depending on what you’re looking for (staying in Branson near everything or staying on the lake to get away from it all).

I am suddenly trying to decide if we should go down for a long weekend or something this year.

Just came back from 4 days in Branson. Great time, first time we took our kids, they loved it. Did the Dolly show (a little pricy), the the Grand Jubilee show, we liked it, family friendly. Did more mini golf than I can ever remember and the downtown area by the river landing is pretty neat. Silver dollar city is great. Also stopped at Lamberts in Springfield…kinda like Hickory Park, but the throwed rolled were with it. For only being 6 hours away, it’s a nice place to get away.
