Springfield, MO

In the heart of the Ozark Mountains sits Springfield, Missouri, a blend of old and new, rural and urban, and always Midwest friendly.

History buffs can retrace the steps of thousands of Native Americans forced to walk the Trail of Tears, see the first railroad to cross the Mississippi River, stand on the site of the Battle of Wilson’s Creek, or even reenact the Wild Bill Hickok shoot-out in the town square. Outdoors enthusiasts can visit Bass Pro Shops headquarters and museum or venture less than 50 miles to Table Rock Lake for fishing and camping. Nearby Branson, Missouri, home of Silver Dollar City, Stone Hill and Mount Pleasant wineries, and several Country Music shows, has something for the whole family. When it’s time to relax, Springfield offers an abundance of nightlife, as well as opera, ballet, and a symphony orchestra.
