Not sure that I would want to bike anywhere on the strip. I don't remember any bike lanes and the traffic is generally quite heavy. If you bike from the City Campground you have about a 1/2 mile very steep climb as the campground is down by the river and the strip is "not!"

Thank you. The bikes will stay inside the coach.

Sounds like the area is not bike friendly. Too bad.

I also agree with Americas Best Campground. We stayed there in 2006 at a Rally and had a very nice time.

I started this thread because I knew I would learn a lot from those who had been there and it has been18 years the last time we where there in a Motel.Thanks for all the info and I think I'm down to two possible's for around 19th April 2010.
We started RVing 2 1/2 years ago and are just country folks having to get by with good deals,but wanting to see the good ol'e USA.After Cows and Hay baling for years this is much!much! better life style and enjoy meeting people of all sort's also after 22 years wroking int he Texas Prison system we enjoy meeting all kinds of Folks.

Maybe see you in Branson

Darrell

We lead a caravan of 12 units to Branson back in July and we stayed at the KOA and found it to be an outstanding Campground and it can accommodate any sized unit.
The people there were very helpful.

Another vote for America's Best (ABC). We've stayed there a number of times. It's far enough out to be out of the traffic and noise, but still convenient. Plenty of space for large rigs and pleasant management.

We stayed in the Branson KOA October 26-29/09 and also recommend it. Very friendly staff and will do their best to help with your needs (most of the staff we met in the park were work campers).

Returned from Branson about a month ago -- We stayed at America`s Best Campground -- The park is hilly, like most others in Branson, but the sites are long & level, & had no problem with tree limbs scratching the paint-- We have a 42' MH with an Acadia toad -- Bill Willard

Stayed at both America's Best and the KOA, both were nice but we preferred the KOA if you can get a premium site. We were just there over Thanksgiving.

We go to Branson twice a year, enjoy it everytime. We've stayed at the KOA and ABC but like Compton's Ridge the best. KOA and ABC are easier to get into but Compton's Ridge has more trees and shade. It's about a ten minute drive to the shows. We're pretty knowledgable about the Branson area so give me a PM if you need more info.
