Ramada Limited

Families, couples and groups wanting mountain and music vacations will find this Ramada Limited in Branson, Mo., a good place close to all the music and attractions that have turned this Ozark Mountain town into a little Nashville. Guests here are close to the Shosi Tabuchi & Braschlers Theater, the Andy Williams theater, and live shows celebrating everything from country music to Motown to 1950 doo-wop. Between more than 30 shows at 60 theaters, guests can squeeze in a little golf, fishing, hiking and other mountain frivolity. Parents and children can visit the Butterfly Place, a 9,000-square- foot habitat with more than 2,000 butterflies, then get their kicks at the Silver Dollar City multi-theme park, and visit the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans Museum.

This four-story, 90-room, pet-friendly Ramada features continental breakfasts, coffeemakers and plenty of restaurants for neighbors. The Ramada Limited Branson is 56 miles from the Springfield-Branson Regional Airport in Springfield, Mo. Travelers shouldn't confuse this Ramada Limited on Shepherd of the Hills Expressway with the Ramada Inn on West Highway 76.
