Thousand Hills Resort Hotel (9.0) – The hotel was nice, but was starting to show a bit of wear. The kids loved the pool was both inside and outside. The facilities were awesome and the people were friendly. Jack Henry’s restaurant is 12.95 a adult, and it is an all you can eat buffe and, very good. I only took off one point for they just needed a little of updating. Just remember if you are leaving early you will not get a refund (I knew that going in but wanted to mention). Price $$
Fuddruckers (8.0) We went Sunday afternoon and it was busy. They did have plenty of toppings and the restrooms were clean. The food was good as always and loved the fries. $$
P’sgetti’s (9.5) – The food was excellent, the service was amazing. I had the Italian Margarita, very good! $$
Silver Dollar City – (10.0) – This place was fun, we rode a lot of rides, lines were not to terrible, and we did eat at the BBW place by train. Excellent portions, and amazing flavor. It was my birthday week so, i got a pin and freebies, and the Sheriff actually sang happy birthday to me. $$$
McDonald ‘s (7.0) – The people are very friendly and really, really try to get you taken care of. But, it was pretty slow, not so slow you get annoyed but, slower than you would expect. $
Hurt’s Donuts (9.5) – This place was awesome, great donuts, lots of a selection. They have those big Fritters and Cin Rolls you dream about. They have a great selection of drinks and the seating area is amazing too. Bathrooms are clean. $$
Tanger Outlet Mall (9.5) We ended up going two different times, once on Sunday (it was a mad house ya’ll but it was tax free weekend we weren’t thinking) and once on Tuesday (much calmer) all the people were friendly, parking was fine (on Tue), and the restrooms were clean and inviting. Favorite store was Ozark Home, it was just pretty! $-$$$
Branson Downtown & Branson Landing (10.0) Situated by Lake Taneycomo, it was breathtaking. They have lots of unique shops and then some old standby’s. We had a lot of fun and found a chunk of our souvenirs here. We watched Parakeet Pete’s over the lake with the zip lines, and the big balloon over by Paula Dean’s. $-$$$
Saltgrass Steak House -(9.0) – Everything was amazing about this place other than how long it took to get the food. We were seated right away, and had drinks etc., but food took so long. The restrooms were clean and nice it was a very good place to have to wait lol! $$$
Taco Bell – (8.0) – I did not like the lack of people only kiosks. I know we are going to that for the future but, I liked talking to people when ordering (I know, I know imagine that) but, for breakfast it was good!! $
Retro Mania – (9.0) – if you want unlimited plays on Pac Man, Asteroids, Galaga, or Donkey Kong, this is your place. Also they have a theatre showing movies on the second floor with the first row full of gremlins. There is also black light mini golf and a haunted house (the haunted house was good) $$
Golden Corral (9.5) The food was fresh, we did go early we were so tired! The deserts were scrumptious, portions were huge, and it all tasted so good! Definitely would do again and again! $$
Ripley’s Odditorium (9.0)- They are very friendly an knowledgeable about the exhibits. The restrooms were clean. They took our pictures and the pictures were very good. The tiny exhibit is a new one, but you should see the bone sculptures. It was a good value for the money. $$
The Track Family Fun Parks – (8.0) We went on Sunday and rode the high rise go karts. That night the restrooms were horrible.. The go kart track was fun, so it was not all bad. We went back on Friday right before we left and had a lot of fun getting ducks, bouncy balls and a nerf gun for the gson. Pretty good for your money $-$$$
All in all I loved it. Nothing is ever perfect, but you can have fun anywhere!!
