The burgers you used to get at your local pharmacy or at Woolworths are just like how they're served here. Get yourself a milkshake and you're in heaven. The menu is extensive, prices are reminiscent of the past, and the service is great. This is a spot all the locals frequent, and with good reason. Seating is set off to the side under a big pavilion, which is nice and shady. Overall, I'd come back to this part of Missouri just for the Dairy Shack.

Stopped by Jolly Cone On The Current and ordered two cheeseburgers, fries, and root beers. The…read moreservice was quick, which was a plus, but the food was underwhelming. The cheeseburgers were average at best, with dry buns that didn't seem very fresh. The fries were decent, but nothing standout. Overall, the prices felt inflated compared to the quality and portion sizes. Based on that, we decided to skip dessert and head elsewhere for something more consistent and reliable.

TLDR: If you're driving by and you want something better than McDonald's or Subway, then this is…read morethe best place to stop!!! I drive from TN to MO often and I have stopped here many times when I am coming through van buren, specifically for a banana split or a cherry sprite which are both great. The food is good and worth the stop! This little joint is the most authentic Van Buren experience you're going to get! The reason I am truly writing this review is because we made a routine stop today and my little 18mo old son fell in the parking lot (in true little boy fashion he just got ahead of himself and tripped) well he ended up scraping both of his knees pretty good. As not to cause a scene, my wife took him over to the side to comfort him while I looked for some napkins to clean up his knees. Before I could even get back to them the owners were standing with my wife with some basic first aid supplies and bandaids making sure my little boy was okay. This was above and beyond customer service and I really truly appreciated it. Very kind people 10/10 will be stopping again real soon.

In the dining area, several tables were in need of wiping, and I later noticed a napkin and a couple of stray fries on the floor under one of them. Had I seen that before sitting down, we probably would have chosen another spot. Ordering through the app was easy, and the food was brought directly to our table by a cheerful crew member, which was a nice touch. Everything arrived hot and properly prepared. Mrs. K. enjoyed her Filet-O-Fish, remarking that it was as good as any she's had elsewhere. My chicken strips were crisp, flavorful, and served piping hot. The sweet tea, however, was a disappointment. It tasted more like sugar water with coloring than actual tea, as if someone had shouted the word "Tea!" at the cup and called it good. Overall, this McDonald's was convenient and average. The service was friendly and the food met expectations, but the cleanliness of the dining area and bathrooms left something to be desired. It would not be my first choice, but it worked in the moment. I've certainly been to better McDonald's locations, and I've also been to worse. [Review 1449 of 2025 - 456 in Missouri - 25002 overall]

Great view of the Current River. Bed was comfortable and room location was pretty quiet, surprisingly. Only downsides were the A/C was noisy and the faux wood floors were being cleaned with some product that made them kinda sticky. We liked the Kuerig coffee maker in the room along with the nice size fridge. Check in experience was good too with friendly staff. We made reservations with a phone call and all went to expectation. Their restaurant onsite is The Blue Heron and it was good as well. Overall we had a good experience and will likely stay again.

For addicts, booze and pot close by. Cons: typical noisy blowy HVac wall units, no house phone in rooms, no luggage help, walk to Rose Cliff Lodge for ice, no cooking or fires allowed anywhere, max. 2-story walk ups depending on room (no elevators), pricey, noise from big rigs on Hwy 60 bridge (less noise in River Center), no house computer, no playground/River here a bit fast for younger kids to play in. The biggest problem with this otherwise quality property was (officially anyway) a "no cancellation/refund/credit" policy. They don't charge your card until you check in, so it is unclear how rigidly enforced this policy is (+ there's a $15 cancel fee per room/day). We got flooded out over July 2025 weekend (Park Service closes the river if it gets over 6 feet - follow this on NOAA website/river level Van Buren MO). We elected to stay regardless (kids are more flexible and inventive than adults!) The Landing is highly dependent on the weather and have a limited season, so they really can't insure your stay. Still, they should have an official credit option for a future stay credit. In Van Buren: "The" Mexican restaurant serves huge good portions. The steaks at the Landing's Blue Heron come out mooing - you may need to have them touched up. Best breakfast is at the Ranch House. No nightlife. In area: Big Spring is spectacular, floating is worth the price, but best in a canoe unless you like cold butt (there's an enormous cave upstream from Van Buren), little funky animal park is pricey but fun for kids. For floating, IMHO the best stretch of the Current is Aker's Ferry to Round Spring, and do it in drought after July 4 for clear water and to minimize deer flies and horse flies.
