Big Cedar does not offer much this time of year, though Branson is pretty nice. You can go to Branson Landing and just drop through the stores browsing, or you can go to the shows that are active now. Some are seasonal and restart in the spring with April 1st. The downtown area is older and have antique malls or other nice little shops. There is also a Bass Pro Shop at the Landing. The Highway 76 strip through Branson offers plenty and you will see all of this when you get your wife at the airport. Branson is one large tourism area with plenty to do at the right time. This is probably not the right time as Silver Dollar City and other attractions are closed. Though some will be active still. We have said before it depends on what your family prefers to do? Please be sure your dealership has made arrangements to be sure your boat and paperwork are ready for pickup. We dont like surprises and we are sure you dont either! LOL!
