Choose which toppings you would like rolled inside or on top of your ice cream and enjoy, because "YOLO," you only live once! Located at the College of the Ozarks, the ice cream from the creamery at the Keeter Center is so fresh you can see the cows it came from just outside in the pasture! Part of the college's “Hard Work U” student work program, the creamery's ice cream is made farm-fresh from the campus dairy. Students then pasteurize, bottle and deliver it to the Keeter Center, where natural ingredients are combined to create delicious flavors such as vanilla custard, chocolate, and the very popular salted caramel. Tucked away in the Grand Village Shops, Sugar Leaf Bakery, Cafe & Espresso offers a delicious assortment of baked goods, sandwiches, salads, specialty coffee and more.

They serve handcrafted espresso beverages late into the night and feature a large selection of fine wines, craft beer, cigars, and scrumptious pastries. Experience an evening on the cafe's string-lit porch or stay inside and admire their vintage and eccentric aesthetic.

Historic Sites Branson literally keeps history alive with several sites in the area. Since the early 1920s, cave exploration has been a popular pastime in the Ozarks. Officially gaining its name in 1969 when Silver Dollar City purchased the cave, Talking Rocks Cavern has shown its glistening walls of crystal and rock to many guests over the years. Go on a one-hour tour to learn about the cave's history referred to by cave management as "edutainment," an experience full of education and entertainment. A hiking trail and mini-golf course are also on site for above-ground fun. On the National Register of Historic Places, the Bonniebrook Gallery, Museum and Homestead displays a collection of work from Rose O'Neill, the renowned artist, illustrator, activist and creator of the famous Kewpie character. In addition to an exhibit of nearly 60 pieces of original art, there are also over 100 antique Kewpie items showcased throughout the recreation of O'Neill's 14-room Ozarks mansion. Visitors can also explore nearby walking trails, sculpture gardens, the O'Neill family cemetery and more. For more Ozarks history, visit the Ralph Foster Museum at the College of the Ozarks. The museum is home to a collection of items relating to the Ozarks, including antiques, natural artifacts, machinery and more. One of the most famous items on display is the original vehicle used in the hit television series, "The Beverly Hillbillies!" Find an interactive piece of history at the Branson Scenic Railway in Historic Downtown Branson. The vintage passenger train takes guests on a one-hour-and-45-minute trip departing from the 1905 depot through the foothills of the Ozarks. A narrator tells the story of extinct railroad communities and the outline of railway history that shaped the Ozarks. Passengers will travel approximately 20 miles outside Branson before returning to the depot. Looking for more to do and see during your next visit to Branson?
