Anyone who has been following my adventures over the last year knows that I am a huge fan of visiting Branson, Missouri. I love the people, the topography, the adventure, the shows and the food. But I’m curious to find out if I have inspired YOU ~ yes, YOU ~ to visit this neck of the woods? If so, read on to find out all about this amazing Branson getaway I have to offer!
I was the guest of Stone Castle Hotel & Conference Center. The prizes below were provided to me by the various sponsors and venues associated with the Blogging Branson event. However, all opinions are 110% mine and mine alone.  This post also contains affiliate links. Please see my Disclosure policy for more information.
Is Branson On Your Bucket List?
My 2018 adventures to the Midwest came in both the spring and autumn of the year. I experienced the advent of spring and the introduction of the busy Christmas season. Each time I visited, I encountered the same southern hospitality and kindness one would hope to see when visiting a town like Branson. They take the phrase, “God, Family, Country” very seriously and it is truly evident everywhere you go around town.
Whether with the Blogging Branson team or with my own family, I spent a great deal of time laughing until my sides hurt, singing until my voice cracked and dining until my buttons popped. Seriously – there are some good eats in Branson!!!  I learned a lot by visiting museums and faced a few of my own individual fears on attractions I swore I would never ride. And not once have I said to myself, “Okay, that’s it. Been there, done that.”  No, in fact, I’m already looking forward to going back!!
What about you? Have you been to Branson? If you have, what do you love about it? If not, well, let’s talk about what you would include in your itinerary if you were to plan a trip there! First, where to stay. We can then talk about what to do while there and, oh, my goodness ~ what to eat!
Finding a temporary “home” while visiting
It’s important, when traveling, to find a good “home away from home.” You want somewhere to rest your weary head after a long day of adventure and a place that feels like you can get a good night of sleep. Amenities are important and extras are a blessing. In Branson, I have had the opportunity to stay in two different locations between my three trips. However, one of them stands out head and shoulders above the other and has become my favorite place to stay in Branson.
Stone Castle Hotel & Conference Center
While there are various name brand hotels in the area, I hands-down prefer to stay at Stone Castle Hotel & Conference Center. Yes, they have sponsored me on two of the three trips I’ve taken there. However, they have genuinely won me over, people. I love the hot breakfasts (more biscuits and gravy please!!), themed rooms, two pools, gorgeous grounds, scenic views and proximity to all the action. Not only is the physical environment pleasant, but the people who work there are authentically hospitable. The only reason we didn’t stay there when the family traveled to the area was because they do not take pets (for service animals, I’d call the hotel). However, anytime we are not bringing our furbaby with us, Stone Castle is “home.” Pssst – the picture you see below is about to change! They are undergoing an amazing transformation and renovation prior to their reopening on March 1st, 2019!!
VIDEO: Check out the room I stayed in back in November!!! I could not have asked for a more perfect theme that time of year!!! Â

Finding the shows you want to see and experience
In case you weren’t aware, Branson is the Live Music Capital of the World and they take that title seriously! Each of my stays has been packed with musical talent ~ from hillbilly country and country rock to show tunes and Christmas carols.  Now, I was a music major in college ~ so, this just tickles me pink!!
Clay Cooper Country Express
Clay brings his country talent to the stage and off with his musical revue of some of the greats. Accompanied by his wife, two sons, Third Power, Matt Gumm and Kari Garrison, the entire team of talent entertains a few nights a week with toe-tapping tunes that keep the audience smiling. Clay and Matt both have quite the sense of humor and add a whole lot of side-splitting laughter to the program. Â

Branson’s Famous BaldknobbersÂ
This is THE original Branson show. Going into its 60th year of entertainment, the Mabe family brings the old country and mixes in the contemporary to bring you a show that will have your heart pounding along to the beat. Brandon and Megan, the dynamic Mabe duo dominating the stage, are joined by amazing vocal and instrumental talent, as well as the comedy routine of Hargus and Droopy Drawers, Jr. This is the third generation of Mabes carrying on this musical tradition and there doesn’t appear to be an end in sight for this cornerstone Branson group.

Hughes Music ShowÂ
While I love me some of the above two shows, I cannot get enough of THIS family. The Hughes brothers, their beautiful wives and their amazingly talented children bring all they have to the stage and mesmerize the audience with singing, dancing, instrumentals, comedy and love. Yes, I said love. This family is all about working together ~ on set, off set, in life. They serve and they give and they love to bring joy to people’s hearts. Every time I see them, I try as hard as I can to get as close to center front as possible because I don’t want to miss a beat. You will be astonished by the talent demonstrated and walk away having to literally pick your jaw up off the floor.
Believe it or not, the above is only a splattering of the entertainment options located within Branson’s city limits. We also took time to visit the Andy Williams’ Performing Arts Center back in November with Jimmy Osmond at the helm. Yakov Smirnoff even has a show in town and, like so many others, honors those who have served in the military. The list of talent goes on and on and on and…you get the picture.

Finding fun attractions to make forever memories
Of course, sitting in a seat and watching others perform on stage is not the only way to spend time in Branson. There are multiple venues around town where you can gather the family to make some fun memories.
Silver Dollar City Theme Park
This 1880s theme park brings you some of the latest and greatest when it comes to thrilling attractions. It has the tallest and one of the most unique roller coasters I have ever experienced personally and I would highly recommend taking a “spin” on the Time Traveler when you go. There are craftsman to watch, shows to enjoy, festivals to attend and caves to explore. Oh, yes!!! You can climb nearly 500 feet down into Marvel Cave as part of your admission!

Dolly Parton’s Stampede Dinner Attraction
Are you ready to Stampede???? This dinner show has one of my favorite combinations ~ food and excitement! While you’re feasting on a four course meal, you are being entertained by some of the best riders and performers around. You’re going to want to get there early for the pre-show and shop for a souvenir after the event. Of course, don’t forget to grab a picture with Skeeter on your way out either!

Tracks Family Fun Park / Branson Ferris Wheel
Some people are just looking for some good ol’ fashion go-karts and arcade games. That’s where Tracks Family Fun Park comes into play. With three active parks in town, Tracks has some of THE best go-kart racing tracks I have ever experienced. At Track 4, (Yes, Tracks 3, 4 and 5 are active), climb the high rise and fly down the slope to beat your racing companions! If that’s not your style, take a turn at the bumper cars or bumper boats (weather permitting) or pop in for some old fashioned carnival and arcade games. Of course, one of the most iconic landmarks in Branson resides on the property of Track 4 and I can’t get enough of this one. The Branson Ferris Wheel, previously located at Chicago’s Navy Pier, takes you high above the tree tops to see a gorgeous aerial view of the Ozarks.
RELATED POST: A Fun-Filled Adventure at Tracks Family Fun Park
Titanic Museum
This is anther one of my favorites. I never knew how much there was to learn about the historic event centered around the RMS Titanic. Explore artifacts, watch documentaries and dip your fingers into 28°F water to temporarily place yourselves in the shoes of those who lived that fateful voyage. Before taking the tour, receive a card that gives you the identity of an actual passenger and find out their fate once you reach the end of the voyage.
RELATED POST:Â Exploring History at the Titanic MuseumÂ
Showboat Branson Belle
This was a new one for me this past November, but definitely one I will do again!! Board a beautiful themed steamboat to enjoy a delicious meal while being entertained by more Branson talent. All the while, you will be sailing on Table Rock Lake while the sun sets (we had THE most picturesque scene!!).

Branson IMAX Entertainment Complex
Let’s say the weather is not conducive to hanging outside or you just want to do a one-stop-shop kind of a day. The Branson IMAX Entertainment Complex can satisfy all that – PLUS some! Inside this venue, there is a large handful of shops where you can find everything from beautifully designed clocks and leather jackets to unique Branson trinkets and t-shirts. If you’re up for a movie, there are several theaters, including a state-of-the-art IMAX screen, where you can catch the latest and greatest or an educational film. If a stage show is what you’re craving to see, there are several from which to choose. Of course, when your tummy starts to grumble, you can jump into McFarlain’s Family Restaurant to grab some good ol’ southern cooking.
Find some good eats to stay energized
Fall Creek Steak & Catfish House
Oh, my! Oh, my! I cannot say enough about this place. It truly activates all five senses and fills you up with good ol’ southern cooking. From the tossed rolls and the singing chef to the delicious country dishes and the nostalgic decor, Fall Creek is a must stop on your journey through Branson.

Florentina’s
Of course, if you are craving Italian, I have a few good ones to share, but this one has THE best Italian nachos EVER!!!! Florentina’s is a beautiful family restaurant that serves up authentic Italian cuisine. The decor gives you the feel of dining in Italy and the tastes will “wow” you.  I honestly could have dined on those nachos all night long. Â
RELATED POST: Florentina’s ~ Marrying Italian Cuisine with Southern HospitalityÂ
McFarlain’s Family Restaurant
The Blutos are Branson royalty and they own two of the places I share on this list. McFarlain’s is a family venue located inside the Branson IMAX Entertainment Complex. It is well known for it’s fried green tomatoes and is home to the Rising Table Society. Now, I’m not going to go giving it all away in THIS post. You need to take a peek at my YouTube video below to find what this very “elite” group of guests can boast.
RELATED POST: Feeling at Home at McFarlain’s Family Restaurant
Pasghetti’s
You cannot miss this venue while you’re driving down HWY 76, aka “The Strip.” If you see the giant meatball and fork, you found it! Pasghetti’s is one of the Branson Best Restaurants, as is Fall Creek Steak & Catfish House, and is more than just a place to eat. It likes to call itself an attraction, as well, since it houses a small Ferris wheel INSIDE the establishment. The decor inside takes you back to New York in the 1920s and themed rooms make great places to enjoy a variety of sized events. Once you’re done chowing down on your 5 oz meatball, enjoy a game or two with the family upstairs or take a few pictures by the trolley car.
RELATED POST:Â It’s All About the Meatball
Montana Mike’s Steak House
This place is another owned by the Blutos’ and boasts the best steaks in town! Walk into this comfortable venue and sit there talking for hours as you feast on delicious plates of steak, chicken, fish or salads.

It does fit just about any scenario, doesn’t it!! Excellent reason to want to visit! Good luck to you, Adeline!!!
I’ve always wanted to go to Branson and go on the showboat! Now that we live in Tennessee and not California we are a lot closer to actually making it happen! Winning this would definitely check off that bucket list item for me!

Branson is full of family friendly adventures and the entire family has been begging me to bring them.. Gosh, your pictures just seem SO fun!!
Thanks, Mya!!! I love that your family wants to visit Branson!!! Here’s hoping you get to cross it off the bucket list soon!!!
I’ve been wanting to visit Branson for some time now. Being from KC, it isn’t that far away. But just haven’t made my way there. I just got the vacation book in the mail for Branson too. Lol. Maybe it’s time to make my way there and enjoy myself
That would be awesome!! We actually lived near St. Louis for awhile in the early 2000s and never made it down there, so I get it. Looks like you are on your way to rectifying that, though 😉. Good luck, Shareena!!
I was there once to adopt my dog. I wished I had more time to spend there. winning would allow to go back finally after all these years! Thanks for the giveaway!
I’ve watched your adventures there, and you had made it look SO EXCITING. I have never been to Branson, and want to experience the fun myself!
Awww ~ thanks bunches, Kimberly!! It was easy to make Branson exciting because of all it has to offer. Thanks for following along and good luck!!
We went to Branson years ago and had a blast. I would love to go back as it’s been too long!
There is so much to do there and I would highly recommend you going back to experience it all again! Good luck, Pam!!!
We have been to Branson twice, but there is still SO much I want to see and do there. Plus, this would be a great getaway for my husband and I to be able to do some things without the kiddos.
Sounds like you have a great plan!! It is a great place for the family, a girls getaway or a little couple’s retreat! Good luck, Amber!!
I grew up in Missouri and went with my family to Branson when I was about two years old… so of course I don’t remember it! I would love to return as an adult and get to experience all the town has to offer!!
That would be so amazing if there are things that come back into memory if and when you return! How fun! Good luck, Lisa!
What a great trip! We love Branson and can’t wait to go back. I want to see The Titanic and the Showboat.
BOTH are on my list of favorites – no joke!!!! The Titanic story never hit me so hard until I visited this particular museum and then the Showboat Branson Belle was such a beautiful ride, delicious dinner and spectacular show! Not to mention, we had a picture perfect sunset! Good luck, Nicole!!!
I’ve never been to Branson, but have fallen in love with it thanks to your blog posts! This is such a generous contest!
Oh, yay!! I love hearing that these posts inspired someone to visit! These gifts were given to me by the venues ~ such amazing people. I’m so glad to have the opportunity to hand them off to someone who will enjoy them as much as I have. Good luck, Rachel!
Honestly, following your blog about things to do in Branson is why I would love to visit!! The Stone Castle Hotel looks amazing!! And I love all things Titanic!
Awww – you just made me smile!!! Honestly, I never appreciated the Titanic story until I visited this particular museum in Branson. Not to mention, I want to stay in every single themed room at Stone Castle Hotel! LOL!! Good luck, Julie!
Branson is one of my family’s favorite places to visit! We love Silver Dollar City and Dixie Stampede!
Oh, one could spend days enjoying Silver Dollar City and Dolly Parton’s Stampede (did you know they changed the name recently?) is soooo much fun! Good eats, too! 😉 Good luck, Stephanie!!
Would love to stay at the castle hotel, and I loved Titanic!
I truly adore Branson. I would love to go with my mom as we haven’t gone together since I was a kid!
That would make for a great trip together, Melanie! Good luck!!
I wanted to go to the Titanic Museum last time we were there but didn’t get to. I’d love to go back, without kids, so hubby and I can experience some different activities than when we took the kids with us.
That sounds like a great idea ~ and I would highly recommend going through the Titanic Museum. Talk to the tour guides, too ~ they really know their stuff and make it a memorable experience. Good luck, Kristi!!
We are on a mission to show Payton all 50 states before she turns 18! She has never visited Missouri so I would LOVE to take her to Branson and check this off her list! Thanks for sharing the information! So much detail! Even if we don’t win the prize, I know where to take her when we make it that way!
That’s an awesome reason to have Branson on your bucket list and I’m glad that the posts have inspired you to take Payton there. Good luck, Michele!!! (Psst – thanks for sharing, too! I saw that you did 😉)
To get to all 50 states is a big bucket list dream of mine! Missouri is one I have not hit yet and I would love to. The fact that it is in the Ozarks too is a plus! I would love to see and blog about the sites there.
There is so much to blog about there, Kaelin! You would have tons of material from which to draw 😉. My Blogging Branson series doesn’t even scratch the surface, believe it or not! Lol. Good luck to you and enjoy your travels as you cross off each state!!
Oh my this is awesome!! I’ve always wanted to go since I live a couple hours away. I’ve heard it’s an awesome destination and one of my mother’s favorites! I would love to take her!
I love the fact that you want to take your mother!!! How precious is that?! Good luck to you, Kali!!!
Branson is one of my favorite places to visit. I have only been with my husband and in laws so I would love for just the hubby and I go to find all the romantic things to do. There are so many incredible restaurants I want to try.
There are soooo many places to dine in Branson. One of my favorites is Florentina’s ~ which would certainly make for a nice romantic evening. And look! I have gift certificates in prize package #1 for that restaurant😉. Good luck, Anna-Marie!!!
I would LOVE to visit Branson! Most importantly I would want to eat all the delicious foods and see the amazing shows!
I love Branson! Have been a couple of times with my family. Would love to go back and try those things I haven’t done yet
That sounds like an awesome plan, Ashley!!! Good luck!!!
I’d love to go to Branson because it’s nearish where my grandma grew up in Springfield.
That would make for a great trip, Kelly ~ exploring a little of your family history in the Ozarks. Good luck!!!!
That would make for a great trip ~ exploring family history while enjoying the sights and sounds of Branson! Good luck, Kelly 😉
I have never been to Branson and would love to go! It seems like there is so much to do and I would definitely check out one of the dinner theater shows
The Showboat Branson Belle has an amazing dinner show and I believe Hughes Music Show has a dinner theater, as well. There are probably quite a few, to be honest!!! LOL. Good luck, Tanya!!
It looks so beautiful! Branson was never on my radar until this post. Now I really want to visit!
Yay!! I love it when one of my posts inspires someone to go somewhere beautiful. I love Branson for so many reasons. Good luck, Amanda!!!
I know I’d love Branson and have put it in my list.
It’s been over 15 years since coming to Branson. We were there for a conference for my husbands work and stayed at a beautiful place right on the water it was a conference center. I’m not sure if it was the same place. We did go see the show that reflected The Beatles. We also met up with some dear friends at a shopping area that was down by the water and ate at a great Mexican restaurant.
I had honestly never heard much about Branson until all of your posts! It seems like such a cool place to visit! Between all the entertainment and the FOOD. Always looking for fun local places to eat when in a new place.
Believe it or not, we never visited Branson when we were living in Missouri years ago. It wasn’t until recently that we had the chance to explore and we loved it! There is so much more to do there than I anticipated! And yes, the entertainment and the food are fantastic! I hope you get over there some day! Good luck!!!
We love Branson! There are so many great shows to see and so much to do!
I completely agree! Do you have a favorite show you like to see, Meagan??
Love this! I have never been to Branson but I have this post pinned for when I do!
Sweet! I’m glad you found it insightful, Junell!! There is a TON to do there and so many great places to eat.
I would love to go to Branson with my daughters, who are both music majors at Baylor University in TX. I’ve never been to Missouri and haven’t even heard of Branson. The food and the music look amazing!
I have something in common with your daughters, Ramae!! I was a music major, too! I didn’t go to Baylor, though, and I wish them all the best!! Branson is a fun place to visit for anyone who loves music. I hope one day you get to take them there 😉. Good luck!
Love road trips with my husband. Branson one town we haven’t gotten to explore!
Well, we need to find a way to cross that off the bucket list, Amy! PS – I love road trips with my Hubby, too 😉. Good luck!
It’s on my bucket list because me and the hubby need a getaway from the kiddos.
That’s a good reason to want to visit Branson (or anywhere! – lol)!! Good luck, Amanda!
You can visit Branson OVER & OVER & OVER and still find new things to do. I don’t have specifics for my BL, I want to do it all!
LOL! I love how you think, Reba, and – YES! There is so much to do in Branson that it is impossible to truly ever get bored. It is always exciting to visit. Good luck and thanks for the read!!
I live in Joplin MO which isn’t too far from Branson. I visit often. It’s a great community with lots to see and do!
We love Branson! We were just there after Christmas and had a wonderful time!
Clearly my bucket list needs updating now. Branson here I come! Great post!
Thanks, Laura!! Branson is just one of those towns that needs to be on everyone’s bucket list 😉.
Branson sounds like fun! We had neighbors that went there with their family every August (they had a time-share).
I have always wanted to visit Branson. All these places looked amazing! What a fun giveaway!
Me and my husband absolutely LOVE Branson. Our all time favorite place to vacation. We chose Branson to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary a few years back. We had a wonderful time. Would love to go back again. My husband was laid off from his job 6 months ago after 18 years of service along with numerous others. Would be a great stress reliever for us both. Branson will always be on my bucket list.
Carolyn, I’m so sorry things have been tough. It would be nice to win something like this, I’m sure. Branson, as you know, is such an uplifting place, too ~ so many amazing shows that leave you with a happy heart. Here’s hoping 2019 gets better for you! Good luck!
Branson is fun to visit
Always love visiting Branson, There is so many things to do and see, We have only touched the surface .
I totally want to see the Titanic Museum! Would be a great night without the kids! I also didn’t realize how musical Branson is! Now it has moved further up on my bucket list!
The Titanic Museum is phenomenal, in my opinion. I never realized how fascinating that event was until I took the opportunity to get to know those aboard and the details aboard the ship. You’ll love it! And yes ~ the talent in Branson is incredible!! Good luck!
Looks like a crazy amount of things to do there!
I can not wait to go to Branson! You have made it look so great!
Awww! Thanks, Tricia! It really is an exciting place to go. I hope you get the chance to visit Branson soon!
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to Branson!! There’s so many new shows and activities that look like so much fun!! This would be a great vacay for the fam!!
Actually, it is on my bucket list. The more I hear about it, the more I want to visit soon! Thanks for the post!
My pleasure!!!! It’s a great place to visit (as if you haven’t heard that enough from me – lol!!!)
My husband and I are finally empty nesters and now we finally have time to travel. WOuld love to go to Branson!!!
It’s a perfect place for empty nesters!!! All the shows, restaurants and fun places to explore!!! Good luck, Trisha!
That’s so cool! I’ve never been to Branson, and it’s only been the last couple years that I even knew it was such a vacation destination!
So much to do and see in Branson!! I always love all of the new doors you open when traveling! Thanks so much for sharing 🙂
Awww – you always say the sweetest things, Angela! Thanks so much for taking the time to read my posts. I’m glad they open new doors for others and I hope they inspire a little more exploration and travel. 😉
We only live a few hours from Branson and have been many times. There is always so much to do it’s a permanent on our bucket list.
That’s awesome to hear, Janet!! It must be nice to live so close to such a beautiful part of the country. Do you have a particular show you like to see more often than the others? There are so many!!
What a great place to visit! I had no idea there was so much to do there!
Believe it or not, I haven’t even scratched the surface with the laundry list of posts I’ve written. LOL! Good luck, Nicki!
Wow!!! I have loved all of your Branson posts. I wish it was closer, it looks like fun.
Awww – thanks for the encouragement, Pauline! Keep it on the bucket list, though ~ you never knew when you might find yourself in the middle of the Ozarks looking for an amazing place to visit 😉.
Branson is such a beautiful and fun place! I can’t wait to visit around Christmas time because of all the fun family activities!
I agree ~ it really is a fun place to be around Christmas!!!
Wow, what an awesome place to visit! I think I’d love the Silver Dollar City theme park 🙂
