Our community is best known for things to do in Branson MO and our live performances, but it’s also famous for its lakeside living. Three of the most beautiful lakes in our country are based here, and the opportunities for water fun is multiplied. Each lake is special and each lake has its own personality and appeal. You’ll come to Branson for the shows, but Table Rock Lake, Bull Shoals Lake, and Lake Taneycomo may be the three main reasons you return again and again!
Table Rock Lake
With plenty shoreline and some of the deepest clearest waters in the state, Table Rock Lake is known for being a major fishing spot with bass, crappie, blue gill, and catfish being its main fish. Indian Point Floating Café is based on the lake and serves all American breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are hearty, tasty, and filling. The Showboat Branson Belle features dinner and a show as it serenely chugs around this mighty lake, offering you a view of the Branson landscape you can’t find anywhere else.
Bull Shoals Lake
Created by the construction of the Bull Shoals Dam in 1952, Bull Shoals Lake is a water sports mecca. Here is where you can swim, fish, boat, scuba dive, water ski, and so much more. Bring your family and picnic on its shores as your children “accidentally fall in and get wet,” laughing in delight when the fish nibble at their bare toes. Bass fishing is the big draw at Bull Shoals and many types of bass can be found in its cool waters.
Lake Taneycomo
While both Bull Shoals and Table Rock Lakes are essential to the economy of Branson, it’s Lake Taneycomo that is the heart of the town. Branson Landing sits on its shores, and every hour on the hour from 9AM in the morning till 10PM at night (9PM on Sunday’s), the Branson Landing Fountain Musical extravaganza plays in time to the fountain’s geysers and cannons. Our nation’s birthday is celebrated here with a magical firework show every 4th of July, and the all-American sport of fishing is practiced here daily.
