There are some may great reviews of campground in Branson, MO that we are having a hard time narrowing it down to one. Anyone have a great suggestion for a nice campground, pet friendly, w/ pool for a family? We are in the process of purchasing our first TT and this will be our maiden trip.
I have stayed at several different parks around Branson. The one we have settled on to stay at when ever we go there is ABC or Americas Best Camping RV Park just outside of town. Easy access from there to any of the parts of town you wish to see and its a lot quieter than the rest of the parks around town. There are others further out from town but figure closer is better and yet not so close as to be a pain to get in and out of and town traffic noise as well. I too will be back in Branson, probably early July and again will try to stay at ABC while in town.
I attended rallies at both ABC and the KOA, and for the money, I would think the KOA would be the best bet for you. The folks were friendly and the park clean. Sites are not all that big but neither were the sites at ABC. KOA is fairly close to the main strip and far enough off the road to be quiet. The KOA had a shuttle van that they used to run people to various shows, but I'm not sure if that was just for rally people or not.
We also stayed at the KOA and liked it. If you bought your show tickets through them, the van was free. If not, you paid $5 a person, but it was well worth it to be delivered and picked up right at the theater door. The van driver knew back ways to get to the theaters so there was no hassle with traffic. We were there during an "off" time so the pool wasn't open and there weren't many activities going on. But that just made it quiet and restful. The staff was very helpful. We would stay there again.
Table rock State Park in Hollister is good too. I like that its in Hollister because if i want to go anywhere I don't have to be so concerned about all the traffic. It does help though to know all the backroads. Table Rock State PArk can also be found on the other side of the dam by the belle boat. Their number is 417-334-4704
