Rt 65 from Branson to Little Rock
How is 65 south from Branson? We will need to stop in Searcy, AR after leaving Branson. I remember being told by an employee at ABC RV Park in Branson some years ago to avoid that road in an RV if possible.

- It is 4 lane through Harrison, but has a lot of curves for the next 60 or so miles to Clinton. There are passing lanes for most of the hills, so it is not too bad. Watch your speed through the small towns as they are looking for income. The speed posting on the curves is pretty accurate for big rigs. There is a WalMart in Harrison and Clinton right on 65 otherwise there are not many places to pull off. One good restaurant is Fergusons between St. Joe and Marshall on the left. You can pull in off of 65 and swing out on the back north with a big rig.
- We live in Shell Knob, Mo., about 30 miles west of Branson. We will pick up 65 in Harrison Ar., and heading down that road on 08/20, I can report back then.
- We are planning a trip down that route as well this Fall and would also be interested in your replies.
- Hwy.65 is a good road, you will have to pick up hwy.64 at Conway to hwy 167 to Searcy.167 is good to Little Rock
