What are the best things to do in Branson Missouri?

My boyfriend and I are 23 and we are going to branson in 2 weeks. We will be there for friday and saturday night, we will come home sunday. We are active people but this weekend needs to be about relaxation! We both have high stress jobs and we are ready for a break! We do drink in moderation but we dont need to be out at the party scene to have a good time (but if theres a really great club in branson we'd consider going!) I know I'd like to go to silver dollar city.... but I need more ideas :

places to eat?

places to stay?

shows to see?

tips/advise or coupons?

Cheap/ discount shopping (we like brand names and good deals!)



Thanks so much for your help!!!What are the best things to do in Branson Missouri?
We've taken our kids there and they did have fun. There is Silver Dollar city, Celebration City which has rides and water park, Dolly Parton has a dinner theater with a western themed show, there are miniture golf courses, arcades, go kart tracks, a Butterfly palace, Ride the ducks out onto the lake, take a helicoptor ride, rent a boat and go out on Table Rock Lake, see some of the fun museums such as Ripleys etc, perhaps they might enjoy a country music show (all are G rated and no liquor is served), fountains that dance to music, Branson Belle river boat cruise and when my daughter was 12 she loved the outlet malls and had no trouble finding clothes for me to buy her. Most of the restaurants are themed or family friendly. I'm not big on the country shows so we tend to stay in condos off the strip that have nice pools for the kids to relax in toward evening. In old Branson there is an old time dime store that has some really fun stuff to look through. They add more new stuff to see each year so Branson always changes. We tend to go at least once a year for a weekend and always find stuff to keep us occupied.
places to eat? McFarlins in the IMAX, Mexican place on the Landing (pricey), Hard Luck Diner

places to stay? Hmmm, it depends. If you want cheap, you'll find plenty once you get there. You can find really good deals on priceline.

shows to see? Six is great.

tips/advise or coupons? Once you get there, you'll find tons of coupon books.

My advice: Friday night go to the Landing. Shop %26amp; eat %26amp; enjoy the atmosphere.What are the best things to do in Branson Missouri?
If you like shopping go to bransons landing, plus they have a few restraunts with alcohol there (always a plus lol). Reaxing trip there is taking the scenic railroad trip nothing real exciting just relaxing. For shows Dixie Stampede is fun, older people were there mostly, but still fun. There are many good places to stay for relaxation there too.
