Dinner, museum, and beautiful views of Table Rock Lake! This is a MUST SEE! We HIGHLY recommend the golf cart tour through the cave. Take cash and enjoy a soda or adult beverage in the cave. You get to view AMAZING waterfalls and a bridge built by local Amish artisans. There is a museum of Native American artifacts found in the Ozarks, including a Native American canoe that was unearthed from a riverbank. Enjoy dinner with an unmatched view of Tablerock Lake. There is a 10$ entrance fee but it comes off your bill for any activities you choose to do.

Have you heard of Pensmore castle? There is a lot of controversy surrounding this place. A quick google search will net some interesting theories. Try a YouTube search of Pensmore Castle and Jesse Ventura. A neat place to view even if you don't believe the conspiracy theories. You can see it from Hwy 65 if you look off to the east at about mile marker 28. It is the largest private residence in the United States. Check it out on your way to Branson, right before the entrance to Busiekl State Forest.

Truthfully, this is about a two hour drive south but if you are an avid hiker, check it out. the views are amazing! Worth the drive.
