Besides the live entertainment you find in the city of Branson the biggest draw to the area is definitely Table Rock Lake.

Table Rock Lake has been delighting visitors & residents alike since it was formed by the damming of the White River in 1958. While visitors can find dozens of places to stay and play along the banks of Table Rock Lake, the area’s commercial developments have placed a high priority on the scenic beauty of the natural shoreline, bluffs, forests and wildlife that inhabit the shoreline.

Table Rock Lake is nationally recognized as a top bass fishing lake. Large numbers of largemouth, smallmouth, Kentucky spotted bass and white bass thrive in its diverse underwater structure.

  • Approx. 43,000 – 52,000 acres of surface area depending on water level
  • 750 plus miles of shoreline
  • Table Rock dam was completed in 1959
  • The dam is 6,423 ft. long and 252 ft. high
  • One of the cleanest lakes in America

By May of 2009, Branson will have a new regional airport. The new airport will be a “big shot in the arm” for Branson’s local economy. The airport is the first privately funded airport to be built in the United States in the last 30 years. You can imagine with 8 million visitors a year driving to Branson what impact an off-ramp from the highway in the sky might have for the vacation town!
