With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up everything that Branson, 40 miles away, has to offer. Branson Landing, Sight and Sound Theatres and White Water alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Eureka Springs is another popular option. It’s 45 miles away and has an array of intriguing things to do. Thorncrown Chapel, Great Passion Play Amphitheater and Beaver Dam Site Park are only the start.
