Branson, MO, is located just north of Arkansas in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. This small rural town has a population of 7,435. It is, in fact, located within 750 miles of nearly 50% of the population of the lower 48 states, and it is ranked 20th for overnight vacation destinations in the US. This small town offers 52 live act theaters seating 60,317... this is more than New York City's Broadway Theater used casita travel trailers district! This town also has over 444 restaurants seating 37,048 people.
used casita travel trailers The live shows offer a choice of breakfast through evening performances. You will find shows for all ages in Branson. While this town is known for its country music shows, you can also find rock and roll, pop, gospel, bluegrass, and Broadway style music along with comedy, dramatic, magic, and religious themed entertainment.
These shows are sometimes dedicated to specific types of music, but there are also shows which combine several themes, mixing a variety of songs with humor and comedy into a rich tapestry used casita travel trailers of cultural entertainment unique to this small southern town.
The shows are available every day of the year, but they are somewhat limited during the months of January and February. Many people visiting Branson see several shows during their stay and can see as many as three shows a day!
This area is home to two wonderful but distinctly different lakes. These lakes offer boating activities like para-sailing, used casita travel trailers water skiing, jet skiing and just plain swimming or goofing used casita travel trailers off in the water. The lakes can be fished, and each one has a different fishing opportunity available.
Roughly fifty miles or so southeast of Branson, straddling the Arkansas/Missouri border, is Bull Shoals Lake. Interestingly enough, the waters running through Table Rock Lake and Lake Taneycomo will run into and become the Bull Shores Lake. This warm lake is also a good tournament bass fishing lake.
Around 70% of Branson's visitors will arrive by automobile using Hwy 65. This highway runs north/south just west of the old town of Branson. A good exit would be Hwy 76. If you go east on 76, you will go through the original city. Going past this small downtown area will take you to Branson Landing. This is a new mall built along Lake Taneycomo.
If you are hungry and looking for food, this mall has many restaurants to choose from. For example, there is a very good Mexican restaurant that overlooks Lake Taneycomo. It is called Cantina Laredo and it is located next to the water fountain/feature that performs a water and fire show at the top of every hour. This is the same type of fountain display used casita travel trailers used by the Bellagio in Las Vegas, NV.
South of the parking lot, you can see a county RV park that has full hook-ups at around 28 bucks a night. This is not bad... it gets you off the Hwy and parked. However, I think there are better sites available in the surrounding area.
Because traffic can be a mess and you don't want to get caught up in it after driving all day, I would recommend staying in this park until the next day when you are refreshed used casita travel trailers and have a chance to get a better feel for how the town is laid out. Basically, you just need a plan. It is not hard to move around... it is just very congested during certain times of the day.
These shuttle buses are available at the various used casita travel trailers hotels and RV parks. They will take you to any show for approximately $5.00 per person. However, depending on where you decide to stay, you may need a car of some type especially if you really want to move around. Rentals are available.
Most of the theaters and entertainment venues are on Hwy 76 west of the old town. Before driving over there, I would recommend that you get a map showing the various color coded routes that have been made available.
These maps greatly help in the navigation of this town. It lists all of the theaters and gives you options on routes. If at all possible, stay off of Hwy 76 and only make right hand turns. It can become very difficult to cross in front of oncoming traffic. This is especially true if you are driving in a big ole' motorhome!
As I said earlier, there is a ton of stuff to do... for the kids and adults! There are multiple used casita travel trailers miniature golf courses, various go cart racing tracks, used casita travel trailers bumper boats, and indoor or outdoor water parks. They even have an indoor miniature golf course with timed rain with lightning and thunder!
Now that you have a good general feel for what type of entertainment is available, you need to figure out where you want to stay long term. Some of you may want to remain at the county park.... it seems to be a very popular place. It does have a reasonably good location because nothing in this town is separated much over 6 miles. However, if you want to get within walking distance to the entertainment, I would recommend two separate RV parks.
Musicland has 95 sites and three cabins. This RV park is well within walking distance of many shows and restaurants. Essentially, this park is located in the middle of the show strip just off of Hwy 76. This section of the Hwy is approximately 4 miles long. So, if you are willing to walk a short distance... it is not a bad place to be.
Phone Number: 1-800 338-7275 Shenanigan has 40 sites with pull-throughs and back ins. This location is a bit more remote than the Musicland RV park. Essentially, Shenanigan is located at the western end of the show strip just off of Hwy 76; and again, it is a nice, well maintained park. It is also within walking distance of many shows. And don't forget, there is a shuttle service for those venues that are just too far for walking.
Any RV book, like Woodall's 2010 Western America Campground Directory, will give you a comprehensive list of parks that are scattered throughout the region, but I think there are a couple more that should be mentioned here.
This Good Sam Club is just out of the traffic. It is a well laid-out clean site, and it has good level pull-throughs and cabins to choose from. It should also be noted, America's Best Campground does offer on site car rentals!
This is a rural area campground located in a deciduous forest about half way between the Silver Dollar City Theme Park and Table Rock Lake dam located along along Hwy 265. This park has three swimming pools (1 indoor heated and 2 outdoor pools), tennis courts, game room, and over 150 campsites.
This park is in a hilly region and some of the sites may be hard to get to in a large rig. When calling for reservations, let them know the size of your rig... it could be important. The park has outside movies on the tennis court, a doggy park, and bike rentals.
This is also a rural area campground located in a deciduous forest about half way to the Silver Dollar City Theme Park from Table Rock Lake dam along along Hwy 265. It is located just across the road from Compton Ridge. They have sites ranging from tents to cabins, with RV sites thrown in. This is a very clean, well organized park. It features a free shuttle to Silver Dollar City. This park also has wireless Internet connectivity.
If I had to break this down to two words, I would say Branson is a "happy place". I found that the people there were glad we came. Everyone was friendly and proud to be an American. Every show would pay respect to our veterans and some even pledged the allegiance to our flag. We stayed for a week, and we plan to return as it is not possible used casita travel trailers to see it all on one trip.
