This little pub serves hamburgers, sandwiches and salads. Your typical bar food. Kind of a hidden gem, in the corner of the strip mall by Kimberling Inn. They do have an outside eating area, in the back of the pub. Depending on the time of year, they have guitar player/singer performing on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This is one of regular places to eat.

I would consider this one of the "do not miss" places. Everything I've tried has been wonderful. You order at the counter, then they bring it to your table. I've always had a good experience here. (I have to say, just a little pricey).

This is a little bit of a drive, great motorcycle ride, about 35 minutes away. But, this place is becoming legendary in this area. They have a very large menu and very large portions. They are known for their catfish and chicken. When you order, if you order chicken or catfish, the server will ask if you want to upgrade to "all you can eat." That's just insanity. My husband will usually order a meal, then I'll order one or two additional pieces of chicken or catfish, and we'll split his meal. You can get to it by land or lake.

This is one of the only two restaurants I recommend actually in Branson, MO. So, be prepared for the traffic. In my opinion, the best steak house around. Last time we went, they were not accepting reservations. But, the wait wasn't very long. I am one who absolutely hates to wait at restaurants. I consider this worth the wait.

I think this is another "do not miss." Order a glass of wine, a meat and cheese platter, and sit on the deck and enjoy life. We start every girls' weekend here. So excited to get there, we don't even go to the cabin and unpack first. We stop on the way.

This is the one of the only two places in Branson, that I think is worth the drive and traffic. The restaurant is east of 65, very close to the landing. You can drive through Branson to see what's there, or you can take 13 to 86 and enjoy the scenery. If you're not a fan of sushi, try something from their Japanese grill. After eating, I will stroll over to 417 Vintage, across the street, west. Interesting little shop.

Don't be fooled by the atmosphere. This is good food and good service. Very downhome. Very close to the cabin and visited by a lot of the locals. On Fridays, they usually have a catfish special and on Saturdays, a chicken special. Closed on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Closes the other days by 7:00 pm.

This would be my number 1 food recommendation. Great place. Very touristie thing to do. Eat on the dock, watch the boats float by and feed the geese and ducks. We love the Captains pizza. Due to seasonal needs, and staffing, the hours will vary at this restaurant. If you plan on visiting this establishment, I suggest checking their operating hours. They often have live entertainment, please review their website for more information.

Wonderful place to eat. Sit on the patio under the umbrellas, perhaps indulge in an adult beverage and enjoy the view of the lake and Kimberling CIty Bridge. Like so many of the restaurants in Kimberling CIty, they often have live music. You can review their website for the times and musicians.

This is the very first Bass Pro, founded by Johnny Morris. It is about an hour and 15 minutes away, straight north. I understand this is not going to appeal to everyone, but if you're a sportsman, this might be right up your alley. Like I said, it is a long drive.

Yep, right next to the marina. Black Oak does have a community shoreline, but the corp ramp and is usually busy with boats loading and unloading and people swimming. If you're planning on spending the day splashing on the shoreline, I'd probably pay the small admission fee and spend the day here. Very neat and well maintained grounds.

MUST SEE!! This post is not really about the resort, I'm sure its great. But, I'm recommending one of the roads leading to the resort. It has an absolutely amazing view of the lake. This is my first suggestion to anyone who has never been to this area. (Again take 13 to 86, no need to go through Branson for this attraction). You'll actually get directions to "Top of the Rock." When you get to the entrance, there will be two entrances. You want the one on the left that says "Big Cedar," no admittance fee. Now, be careful, this is a very windy road. You'll know the view when you get there. We like to arrive just around sunset. There is usually a small group of people already there, some enjoying an evening picnic. Rumor has it that Johnny Morris may soon be changing this area. So, enjoy it while you have the opportunity. I will warn you, I will generally get lost in Big Cedar while leaving, but I do always, eventually, find my way out.

Such a beautiful place. Easy, easy asphalted trails. There is an admittance fee. We will usually walk or rent a bike. You can also rent segways, horseback riding or just ride a tram. These usually fill up fast, so plan ahead and make reservations. This is another place owned by Bass Pro founder, Johnny Morris. He definitely knows how to do things right.

This is another example of how centrally located our little place is! This is about an hour drive, but oh, what a unique little town. This town originally sprung up due to it's hot springs. The entire downtown is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is also well know for it's HAUNTED HOTEL, the Crescent Hotel. Eureka is home to several natural hot springs and the Great Passion Play. This is also a very popular motorcycle destination.

KAYAKING...We like to kayak, but we have never used an outfitter. Galena is about 30 minutes away. This is a pretty easy float that I think anyone could do. Due your diligence and research outfitters, but I'd highly recommend spending a day floating. Wonderful.

This is so much funnnnnn! There are several of these in the area. I've been on most of them, and this is my favorite. (I have not been on the newest one at Shephard of the Hills). Thus is a small roller coaster that snakes along the ground. No big drops, no looptie-loops. It is open day and night. It is a whole new experience at night when it's all lite up. They also have ziplines at this location. I love ziplines at this location.

This started out as a play, based on the book. It is now turned into an adventure park. Recently under new ownership. They have ziplines, rope courses, ATV's, shops, etc. Inspiration Tower has an amazing view. They have a mountain coaster. This is definitely a place to visit. Side note: They have a wonderful drive through light show during the holidays.

Country themed amusement park. There is so much to do in this area, but it would be hard to determine what is the bigger attraction, SIlver Dollar City or Table Rock Lake. You might as well plan a whole day at the Park. I'd highly recommend the very unique, Time Traveler Roller Coaster. But, all their coasters are great.

Walking distance from the cabin. I wanted to mention this, because I'm surprised how many people come to the cabin, but never go down to the lake. The boat ramp is just west of the condos. Sometimes, we just inflate a floatie and hand out on the community shoreline. Please do not trespass onto the privately owned boat docks. Please make time to enjoy the beautiful sunsets from this shoreline.

This is a golf course with trails, restaurants, museums and Chapel of the Ozarks and Civil War era cabin. We generally go there for the gold cart trail. There is a fee to get onto the property. But, we have always been credited that fee when we rent a golf cart. I would highly recommend this to anyone. It is so much fun just to meander the asphalted trails. Just an absolutely beautiful setting!! I'm always disappointed when we reach the end of the trail.

I'm surprised how many guests will visit or cabin, but never go down to the lake. - While in the neighborhood, I'd suggest walking down to the lake at sunset, go west, past the condos. -Or, pick up a floatie and spend the day lazing at the lake. -Or, if you really want a great lakeview, drive the half to overlook the lake at the Big Cedar/Top of the Rock entrance. I do think this is a "must do" for first time visitors. Take 86 almost to 65, much more scenic, take the Big Cedar entrance at the round-a-bout. Then drive up the very curvy road. You'll know when you get to the lakeview. This is another great sunset view.
