Bass pro is only just up 65 at Springfield with a super wildlife museum only 30 miles or so from Branson. There is a River Boat on Table Rock lake called the Branson Belle with a good show and nice meal. There is Dogwood Canyon that is a nice scenic tram ride or a leisural stroll. Lots of shows on the strip. There is Top of the Rock that has a great resturant and a guided tour that is a beautiful place. Also has a great course if you play golf. Below the dam at Table Rock is the trout hatchery and at the state park is a great little museum with the history of the area and the lake. Lots more if you look around while you're there.
