Runaway Mountain Coaster & Flyaway Ziplines at Branson Mountain Adventure (935 Historic Hwy 165,…read moreBranson, MO 65616) We had to check out the fastest mountain coaster during this very hot weekend in July. They have their own parking lot that seemed to get people in and out, and their line was short to buy tickets. My guy asked the cashier if I could bring my fanny pack, to which she quickly replied no, it needs to stay in the car and cannot be brought along to the ride. While I appreciate this information at the ticket stand, it was quite frustrating to get back home and see some AI-consolidated mentions of small lockers from a few months ago. Not sure if this is true or not, but I feel it should be mentioned on the website in FAQs and on signage at the site. Other than that, as a tourist, I still enjoyed the ride.

Location Just off 265, west of downtown Branson…read moreParking Large open lot Atmosphere Fun-open-lit up at night Service Friendly and helpful Ride First you check in on an ipad and sign a waiver. Next you watch a video. Then they weigh you and check the height of the children. Weight limit is 300 pounds. They are big on safety-one at a time they seat you in the "coaster"- you are buckled in with 2 safety straps-additional child straps. There are handles to hold to control speed. I am not big on speed and went slow. The coaster climbs through the woods and fake animals are scattered throughout. At the top there is a shed and guide who gives a thumbs up and down the hill you go-tilting slightly at times and circling around. They assist you and unstrap you at the end. A photo is taken 3/4 of the way down-smile and try not to look scared! Summary All the locals recommended this ride as the most scenic and it was! Great fun-even for me who is skiddish about heights and speed. Note-second ride is discounted. Best ride ever! Loved it!!

It's amazing to see how water literally forms the earth. And in a world of endless digital entertainment, Onyx Cave Park offers a wonderful alternative. The only improvement? It would be cool if their pre-recorded guided tour could be rewound, forwarded, or jumped to the number stop that you would like to be repeated. A few of our headphones got off a bit in our party, and the poor tech ended up separating us on our journey through the cave.

My daughter and I went to White Water when we were in Branson for vacation this past summer and it…read morewas a good experience. It was pretty busy, which was totally expected. We got there shortly after they opened and was lucky enough to snag a couple chairs in the shade. After a bit we got in line for some food and it was pretty chaotic. You get in a line, grab what you want, and pay at the register at the end of the line. It was like pulling teeth trying to get the kids chicken tenders meal, which IMO, should be the thing they always keep stocked. Contrary to what other reviews say, there's a good amount of water slides and things to do. My daughter and I had a blast. We only had one long wait in line, which was fine. If we go back to Branson, we will definitely go back.

We had a great day at white water. We enjoyed the bigger kids play area, the lazy river, wave pool…read moreand several of the slides. There are plenty of areas that are shaded with lounge chairs, which was a plus bc it was 100 degrees the day we visited. My group also enjoyed the healthier food options available. Overall, a great day but not a park I would go back too. It's a one day experience and fine if your kids really want to go.
