As the new year begins, many of us start thinking about the goals we want to achieve. While resolutions often focus on personal growth, health, or productivity, why not consider a resolution that will bring you joy, relaxation, and lasting memories? This year, make your New Year’s resolution to travel to Branson, a destination that promises adventure, charm, and the perfect setting for a memorable getaway. Whether you’re looking for an active vacation, a peaceful retreat, or a blend of both, Branson offers everything you need for a refreshing and fun-filled trip.
Travel is not just about exploring new places; it’s about rejuvenating your mind, spending quality time with loved ones, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. And what better way to kick off the year than by dedicating some time to a vacation that’s full of new experiences? If you’re thinking of visiting Branson in 2025, it’s time to start planning. The first step is to ensure that you book a comfortable and affordable place to stay, and Sunset Nightly Rentals is here to make that happen.
The Power of a Travel Resolution
When we set resolutions for the year ahead, we often focus on things like career achievements or self-improvement goals. But travel resolutions are just as valuable because they allow us to invest in experiences that enrich our lives. A vacation is a chance to take a break from daily routines, explore new environments, and reconnect with what truly matters—whether that’s relaxation, adventure, or quality time with family and friends.
Setting a goal to travel to Branson in 2025 means you’re committing to an exciting and rewarding adventure. The beauty of travel is that it pushes us out of our comfort zones and exposes us to new perspectives. Whether you’re seeking a relaxing retreat to unwind or an action-packed getaway to experience something new, Branson offers a unique opportunity to do both.
A Place for Relaxation and Adventure
If you’re looking to rejuvenate and unwind, Branson offers the perfect setting. Picture yourself waking up in the morning to a peaceful atmosphere, where you can spend your days relaxing in a comfortable and tranquil environment. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet walk, reading a book by the window, or simply reflecting on the beauty around you, Branson’s charm is all about embracing peace and relaxation.
However, Branson also offers plenty of opportunities for adventure and excitement. Whether you’re into outdoor activities or exploring local culture, there’s no shortage of fun to be had. For those who want to embrace a more active vacation, Branson offers hiking trails, opportunities for water-based activities, and a range of exciting experiences to fill your days with energy and fun.
By making your New Year’s resolution to travel to Branson, you can strike the perfect balance between relaxation and adventure, allowing you to experience the best of both worlds.
The Comfort of a Vacation Rental
When it comes to booking your stay, one of the most important factors to consider is comfort and convenience. Instead of staying in a traditional hotel, which can often feel impersonal and cramped, why not opt for the space and comfort of a vacation rental? With a vacation rental, you have the luxury of more room, privacy, and a personalized experience. This is especially true when you book your stay with Sunset Nightly Rentals.

The end of the holiday season always brings about a period of blues as the anticipation, the excitement, and all the delicious foods we eat are done for another year. But we at Sunset Nightly Rentals have learned a few things over the years, and one of those things is that the best way to get through the blues is to start planning your next getaway, preferably one that takes you to our hometown of Branson for a stay in our vacation retreats. If you haven’t really considered Branson as your next vacation, however, this preview to all you can expect from a trip to Branson in 2025 will perhaps give you an encouraging nudge in the right direction.
Something New
The traditions of Branson are important to us, and many of our performers stay on the stage for years, becoming an important part of our town’s family, but new is good as well, and in 2025 the shows listed below are coming to the stages of the “Live Entertainment Capital of the World.”
David, Sight & Sound Theater, 1001 Shepherd of the Hills Expressway in Branson
A new show, David, is coming to the Sight & Sound Theater, a theater company that began over 50 years in Pennsylvania, bringing bible based stories to the people. The Branson version opened its doors for the first time in 2008, offering Noah the Musical as its first performance. Every year since then, they offer a new biblical story, each showcasing the talents of the finest actors in the state. 2024’s was the very successful Daniel, and we are sure that David will be an equal success. Tickets cost a very reasonable $79, ensuring that most vacation budgets can handle the purchase.
Thunder Ridge Concert Arena, 1901 State Highway 86 in Ridgedale
Thunder Ridge Concert Arena is the one place in town where change is a constant, offering up a steady stream of headliners from all over the country, and the 2025 lineup promises to be an exciting one. On April 26, Bulls, Bands, & Barrels is the first show up to bat, combining, of all things, bull riding with live musical performances from Riley Green and Craig Morgan. On June 7, legends in the rock world, Styx & Keven Cronin, + Don Felder will be bringing the Brotherhood of Rock Tour to the stage. Less than a week later, Post Malone and his Big Ass Stadium Tour comes to the concert arena, sharing the stage with Jelly Roll, and both performers promise to bring magic to your world. These are just a few of the exciting performances coming to the stage in 2025, but the Thunder Ridge website offers a more comprehensive list of performances and things to do in Branson that will be coming to its stage.
Not Just Music
Branson wasn’t always a popular vacation destination. Before all the theaters began opening up, we were known for our natural beauty and quiet peace, and although we are famous for being the live music capital of the world, the theaters that line our streets aren’t the only game in town. Below, we have listed a few attractions that will enhance your vacation experience.
Silver Dollar City, 399 Silver Dollar City Parkway in Branson
Known as the home of American craftmanship, Silver Dollar City is a theme park might be the only amusement park based on a time period, the 1880s to be exact. Offering thrilling rides, including the all new family coaster called Fire in the Hole, an indoor roller coaster that is the largest in the heartland, the park also is the center of holiday entertainment, offers 100 craftsmen and women who demonstrate milling, blacksmithing, blowing glass, wood carving, and so much more. Their completed works are offered for sale, often serving as souvenirs of a thrilling adventure travelers could never experience anywhere else. Don’t feel like carrying everything you see and need home in your luggage, even though there is plenty of room? Their online store allows you to buy what you love and have it shipped to your home!
The sinking of the Titanic still captures our attention more than 100 years after the tragic event occurred. We still can’t wrap our minds around such great loss and the tales of heroism still warm our hearts, making Titanic museums and exhibits popular attractions wherever they may exist, including the one that lies right here in Branson. Offering authentic renditions of the ship, key movie memorabilia, and telling the ship’s story with dignity and style, visitors can touch an iceberg, walk along the sloping deck as the passengers and crew had to on that fateful night and can sit in actual sized lifeboat, while listening to the stories of the real passengers that boarded the luxury ship. Upon walking in, guests are given a boarding pass with the name of an actual passenger or crew member and at the conclusion of the tour, will be able to learn the fate of “their” person, adding an additional layer of realism to the experience. This attraction sells out quickly on a daily basis, so reservations are recommended.+
Branson Auto and Farm Museum, 1335 State Highway 76 in Branson
The Branson Auto and Farm Museum is another popular attraction to check out on your trip to Branson, offering a collection of over 150 restored classic and muscle cars and tractors that will engage the shade tree mechanic in your traveling party. 90,000 square feet of building is divided into two halves, one serving as a garage for its truly marvelous collection of cars and the other serving as a barn of sorts for an equally impressive farm exhibit. Marvel over the purple 1932 Ford Highboy, the red 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air, and the more modern 1974 Plymouth Cuda (as well as all the other vehicles in the collection!) and then turn your attention to stunning selection of fully restored tractors that date back to the 1920s. Also offering a section entitled barn finds that features a fascinating group of plows, carriages, and more, this museum may be one of your favorite Branson adventures.
Branson Events
The best way to get to know a place is by attending the events and festivals that the locals attend and the ones listed below are ones that we look forward to every year. Your Branson journey can be planned around the top things to do in Branson that interest you most and if there is more than one event you are interested in, why not go ahead and plan an additional visit? There is always something fun and exciting going on in our Ozarks mountain town, and if you visited five times in a single year, you wouldn’t experience the same vacation twice.
Branson Music Fest, April 25-26, Clay Cooper Theater, 3216 W 76 Country Boulevard in Branson
Music made our fortune, and you might think, if you didn’t know the area very well, that we would want to try something a little different. But we still haven’t celebrated all that makes the music play, and every April, the Branson Music Fest helps move us even closer to a state of music enlightenment. Held at the Clay Cooper Theater, offering two days filled with a total of 20 to 22 different performances. Performed by nationally renowned artists, some of our favorite local artists, and also offering a sneak peak into some of Branson’s newest shows, this festival will give travelers a better understanding of just what makes our mountain town tick.
Veterans Week, November 5-11, Various Venues in Branson
Our all-American town pays homage to the American veterans who make it their business to keep us safe and free, and while most places just offer a single day to celebrate, we dedicate an entire week to our heroes. Kicking off the celebration with a Veterans Show at the Clay Cooper Theater, there are musical events, a Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall (a half scale replica of the original Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall monument found in DC) free meals, a Vietnam Veterans Reunion, military themed movies, a Sandbox Party honoring those who served in the Gulf War, and so much more it would take us more time than we have to list everything that takes place during this wonderful week. Culminating with a Veterans Day parade held on Veterans Day, the entire week is designed to remind our veterans that we honor, thank, and appreciate them so very much.
Christmas at Silver Dollar City, 399 Silver Dollar City Parkway in Branson
Many local events take place in Silver Dollar City, the 1880s themed amusement park we mentioned earlier, and if you are planning a Christmas visit to Branson, the activities and events at the park are sure to make your visit more magical. The theme, Old Time Christmas, fits right into the brand of the amusement park, and as you and your family enjoy a Living Nativity for its peaceful and serene rendition of that significant night in Bethlehem, the bright and sparkling Rudolph’s Holly Jolly Light Parade, and a festive selection of holiday performances, it will be near impossible to ignore the spirit of Christmas that descends upon you!
The Meals You Will Remember
As the tour of Branson in 2025 continues, it is time to explore the epicurean landscape that will be such an important part of your getaway. The best vacations are often remembered for the foods we ate, and although we don’t show any new restaurants on the Branson landscape as of yet, the tried and true tastes found below will be memorable ones.
Billy Gail’s, 5291 State Highway 265 in Branson
There are actually three locations for this much loved favorite, but for today’s purposes, we are going to visit the original Billy Gail’s, the one that made everyone fall in love with their food. Open every day for breakfast and lunch and also serving dinner on Fridays and Saturdays, their breakfast menu is a large one and is served all day, every day. This is where you find the Southern comfort foods you have always read about, including country fried steak and pancakes that will give you the sweetest start to your day. If breakfast isn’t your thing, that’s ok too! Their burgers are thick and juicy, and their Home Cookin’ menu items will make you wonder if your own grandma isn’t in the back, cooking up her own favorites!
Fall Creek Steak & Catfish House, 997 Historic Highway 165 in Branson
Offering live entertainment (including waiters that toss dinner rolls to their guests!) this family restaurant is another Branson favorite, having tossed their rolls for over 30 years. Offering the best barbecue in town and fried catfish prepared the correct way (everyone knows it has to be breaded in cornmeal) they also serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with expertly prepared and very thick and juicy steaks shining bright on their menu. Their dessert menu is a wonderful one, so be sure to save room for cobbler or cake.
Mitsu Neko Fusion Cuisine and Sushi, 224 W Main Street Suite B in Branson
All of this country cooking is wonderful, but even in Branson, travelers hope to find sushi that is fresh, sweet, and delicious, and Mitsu Neko always comes through for us. Closed Mondays and open for dinner every other night of the week at 4:00 PM, they are proud to serve food made with locally sourced ingredients whenever possible and their ramen choices are authentic and wonderful.

Homeowners often grapple with the decision of either renovating or remodeling, weighing the benefits of each approach. Both options have their merits, but they cater to different needs and offer varied returns on investment. By exploring these distinctions, you can make an informed choice that aligns with your goals and maximizes your Branson vacation property’s value.
Renovating vs Remodeling Your Home for Maximum Value
Renovation typically involves updating or restoring an existing space to its former glory or improving its functionality. This process often focuses on fixing issues and maintaining the original structure. For instance, renovating a kitchen might mean updating appliances, replacing worn-out countertops, or refreshing cabinetry. These improvements enhance the existing features without altering the overall layout or design.
On the other hand, remodeling goes a step further by changing the structure or layout of a space. Remodeling projects often involve reconfiguring rooms, altering floor plans, or adding new features that fundamentally transform how a space is used. For example, turning an unused attic into a functional bedroom or expanding a bathroom to include a luxury shower creates new possibilities for living and enhances the home’s overall functionality.
The impact of renovation versus remodeling on your home’s value depends largely on the local real estate market and buyer preferences. In some markets, updated kitchens or bathrooms might yield a high return on investment due to their high appeal to prospective buyers. In other cases, structural changes that open up spaces or create additional rooms might offer a greater return, especially if such features are in demand.
One crucial factor to consider when renovating or remodeling is the scope of the project. Renovations generally involve fewer changes and can often be completed more quickly and with less disruption to your daily life. This makes them a popular choice for homeowners looking to make improvements on a budget or with limited time.
Remodeling, however, often requires more extensive planning and can take longer to complete. The transformative nature of remodeling projects means that while they may be more disruptive, they can also create more substantial changes that can attract a wider range of buyers.
Budget also plays a significant role in deciding between renovating and remodeling. Renovations are typically less costly than remodeling because they focus on updating existing features rather than making structural changes. If your budget is tight but you still want to increase your home’s value, a well-planned renovation might be the way to go. However, if you have more flexibility and aim to make a more dramatic impact, you should invest in a remodel.
Another consideration is the long-term value of each approach. While renovations can improve a space’s functionality and aesthetic appeal, remodeling can provide a more substantial increase in value by transforming the home in ways that appeal to a broader audience. Remodeling projects that create additional living space or update outdated features often provide better returns on investment, as they can make your home stand out.
It’s also worth noting that personal preferences play a role when deciding whether to remodel or remodel. If you plan to stay in your home for many years, the choice between renovation and remodeling might be influenced by your lifestyle needs and aesthetic desires. Renovations might allow you to enjoy updated spaces without major upheaval, while remodeling can cater to more significant changes that align with your long-term vision for the home.
Ultimately, the decision between renovation and remodeling should be guided by your specific goals, budget, and the current real estate market conditions. Both approaches offer ways to increase your home’s value, but the most suitable choice depends on what you aim to achieve.
