    I absolutely love this park! I’ve gone here since I was little and I have always loved it! I love the theming of the whole park and the rides. There are rides for all ages! There are so many rides that children can enjoy! There are designated areas for children as well with so many fun attractions for them! There are splash pads and water rides to keep everyone in the family cool on a hot Summer day! Kids that do not like thrill rides but are too big for the childish rides have many options as well! Adults and teenagers that love the thrill have several roller coasters and thrill rides to choose from. The food at the park is amazing! The scenery of the park is so beautiful! The views that you get on some of the rides are amazing! Silver Dollar City is a must-do for every family! There is not a single time that I go there and don’t have fun! Bring a friend! There are also some pretty cool shows that older people can watch or anyone at all can watch! I personally go to Silver Dollar city for the rides, the food, and a good time! The workers are very kind and they make the theme seem so much more real! If you like to post on Instagram, this park has so many amazing sites to see and post! Spread the news of this amazing park because it is my all time favorite!

    This was a ride that I would do again. Once you get the hang of controlling the speed (unless you like really fast) it was fun. You must try this.

    Our guide James was very entertaining and informative. The cave is very interesting with a lot of history. It is a walk down several hundred stairs and some ramps. Positive it’s not as many stairs back up.

    My husband and I have 7 children ranging in age from 10 - 25. Overall, our family had a fun time here. The go carts were a blast! And a few of our children rode the ferris wheel and enjoyed that as well. Our only complaint is that the arcade is pretty lousy. I really wish we hadn't wasted our time or money on it! Honestly, we have a better arcade here at Mr. Gatti's in the small city where I live in Louisiana.

    The employees were very helpful and super nice! We got a super nice deal that gave us unlimited rides for 2 hours and the weather was cold so not too busy and we’re able to ride 10 times! Definitely a must in Branson!

    We're a middle aged couple who really enjoyed our day at White Water. The wave pool is enjoyable for just relaxing, as is the lazy river. We feel the lazy river could have used a little attention as there were tons of leaves/flowers floating in it as well as limbs laying off to the side. We shared a pizza from the pizza shop, it was ok but greasy. We would have loved to have had a fruit bowl similiar to the ones at Oceans of Fun in KC, but none were available.

    I’m terrified of heights, the man selling the tickets told me things to look for instead of looking down. So I looked for them, had the best time!!! Did it twice!!!! Great fun!!

    I loved the mini games. The guy running it was great. He should be a coach or sports announcer. This is a great place to go.

    Just came home from seeing Rick's show for the third time with my sons. He and his team never disappoint. Rick opens by demonstrating his sleight of hand bonafides then takes the audience on a classic, family friendly magical experience of close-up, parlor and astonishing grand illusion. It's always worth every penny. Go see him!

    Excellent show! Crazy good! Reza flawlessly delivers his illusions and mixes it with funny audience participation and high level professionalism. A must see show that delivers many surprises and awesome illusions. He is very talented and connects very well with his audience. Great show!

    This gave us great views of everything around us for miles. Branson area is beautiful. After we finished the tower instead of going down the elevator we paid to take the zipline. It was so exciting. But they were pretty pricey compared to other ziplines. Definitely is a fast one though.

    We had a wonderful time! We escaped the JasperJinx room. The place was clean and the staff were very very nice. As we waited for our turn we walked around and noticed Bible verses throughout the building. We love supporting Christian business so that was a surprise bonus!

    We never miss this. It's a great time, even my 72 year old mother in law loves it. Not for small children, but my preteens beg to trade every time we come here. Amazing fun thanks
