If you're in Branson, Silver Dollar City is one of those places you pretty much have to experience…read moreat least once. What really sets this place apart is the entertainment. There are shows happening all day long, from live music and bluegrass to comedy and saloon-style performances. Depending on the season, there are also special productions throughout the park. It's nice to be able to sit down, take a break, and still feel like you're part of the experience. And since the shows are included with admission, it adds a lot of value to your visit. It's also a great spot if you have younger kids. There is plenty for them to do beyond just rides, including play areas, interactive attractions, and even a train ride. It's not one of those parks where little kids are limited. They can stay busy all day. The whole park has a really cool 1880s theme and is honestly one of the most beautiful theme parks I've been to. Between the shops, craftsmen, and scenery, it feels more like an experience than just rides. That said, be ready for a lot of walking. This park is very hilly and you will feel it by the end of the day. Lines can also get long during busy times. Overall, it's a really unique place with a ton to do for all ages. Between the shows, rides, and kid-friendly activities, you can easily spend a full day here and still not see everything.

This place was so much fun!

Everywhere we went be it online for the rides or to refill our souvenir cups there was always a friendly, helpful face there to assist. I would definitely return. Great place for older kids and young. Lots of fun for all ages.

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!!

On my visits to this Park over the Last 40 Years I've noticed it changing from a Old Frontier type…read more park to a everyday style amusement park. I've seen the food Quality go from good old down south cooking to very poor quality every day food with very high prices. The management has gone from old home body folks to Large Corporation style management. On usual days the park is crowded with long waits for shows and rides. Some of this caused by the fact the value money over good old courtesy of wait your turn and for more money some are allowed to cut line ahead of those that are less financially blessed. On the Silver Dollar Face Book Page I occasionally commented on post about the quality of the food and pricing. This was taken exception to by the Customer Service Rep -Gregory Craig and as a result, Instead of Rolling My season pass over as I was asking about he Voided my season Pass. Instead of listening to the comments about problems with the food , IN MY OPINION, he chose to basically cancel my Pass and deleted me from the Face Book Web Site. In General, Silver Dollar City , In my opinion is on a fast track to Big Business Money Grubbing Corporation Way of Operating. RV's Pay to Park, Still Free Parking with shuttle service but that is getting smaller with all the Advantage Pay Extra Parking taking up the closer parking. Several of the Rides are Shut Down with operation problems, IF THERE IS A STORM WITH IN 20 MILES RIDES SHUT DOWN including the Cave tours because these big Exects have not bothered to put in a back up Generator source to run the Tram taking people back out of the cave. NOT nearly as many Craft Shows on the grounds as past days, Not as much outside cooking , and what is inside has turned into More of fast food. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SILVER DOLLAR GET SOME OF IT OLD CHARM BACK BUT WITH CURRENT MANAGEMENT I FEAR THAT IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN.

We had such a great time at the Branson coaster! It was a fun experience for all ages. I was a…read morelittle worried about my youngest son, but he did amazing and wasn't scared at all. Most of my crew is pretty nervous around heights and roller coasters, but everyone ended up loving it! I will admit, the idea of potentially getting too close to the person in front of you stressed me out a little. You do have to keep a certain distance, and I did get a little closer than I wanted to at one point. Thankfully, it was easy to brake and slow down, so it ended up being much less stressful than I expected. If the line isn't too long, I would definitely recommend doing it a few times. The wait can be a little lengthy, but it's worth it. The staff was fantastic, especially the guys helping everyone get started. They were fun, encouraging, and made the experience even better. One of them could tell my youngest was nervous and did such a great job calming him down and cheering him on before he took off. I wish I had gotten his name so I could give him a proper shoutout! This was such a fun family activity and a great memory for all of us. Definitely recommend it!

Beware of the Diamond 2 park season passes. We get SDC season passes nearly every year. This year I…read morebought the 2 park season passes because we wanted to try WW for the first time in a decade or so. Due to a medical event in our family and an ICU stay, we decided we didn't want to chance the water park and decided it would be safer to keep the fam on dry land. I called SDC (who USED to have excellent customer service) and asked if we could get a refund or at least a forward credit to next year because we used none of the Diamond pass perks. I even offered to send substantiating medical documents. They said no. "No downgrades after WW is open for the year." So, learn from our experience and be aware that if you buy those 2 park Diamond passes and never use WW on the very, very limited days that they are open, you just trash that money. Judging by the reviews on here, we didn't miss much.

We made our reservations online and you get a form that tells you to fill out the waiver online to…read moresave time at checkin. Well, the link does not work, so we arrived 30 mins prior to our reservation as instructed in the instructions. You walk into the nice building and serval workers are there yet no one engages with you to welcome you. Finally you get some one at that counter and tell them you are there to checkin. We are told we are the only party in that reservation slot, we get weighed, and sign the waiver. After you sign the waiver nothing happens. They don't tell you anything you just wait. I did mentioned that we tried to sign them online and another lady says oh yeah that doesn't work and we cannot change the email with the instructions either. Seems odd. Well, after you wait with no communication from the staff eventually Maykala came to say she was going to get us geared up. She took our group started to work with us and then a guide Seth came and told her to take a break. He may have been trying to be funny with some of the things he was saying, however it came off as very rude. Out on the lines we had a good time. The first line we went down everyone in our group was turning around and Seth made a comment to my husband and me that our boys were not holding the brake correctly causing them to turn, well when my husband and I went we both turned. The next line Maykala told us to hold the brake a little different and seemed to make a big difference. The problem was Seth was receiving and he told our one son (who has autism) he was doing it wrong which needless to say upset him since he did exactly what he was just instructed to do. Seth would continue to make comments to our boys that I'm not sure if he thought were funny or what, however again it just came across as rude. After the lines you return to the office. No communication if you are free to go or what. We knew from watching a previous group checkout that they have photos you can buy. So, when I went to buy some drink and the lady asked if I wanted photos I told her no one has talked to us about them however, yes we wanted them. Overall it was a fun time. Maykala was amazing! The rest of the crew in the office and Seth needs to learn about customer service.
