The Splash Country Indoor/Outdoor Water Park at the Grand Country resort is open 365 days a year and sits in the heart of Branson. The resort offers numerous water rides. At 250 feet, the Lazy River lets visitors relax while floating around natural materials of an Ozark riverbank. Kids can play Tarzan at the three-level treehouse that comes with interactive water play features on each tier and the Grand Pa Grand's tube slide. The sports-minded can enjoy a basketball play pool, and tiny tots can play in a toddler pool with a frog slide and bungee swings. The outdoor waterpark has a Eureka Mine waterslide that is set up over an old working mine. In addition to aquatic activities, the resort has a music hall and three family-friendly eateries: Grand Country Buffet, Papa Grand's Pizza and Mining Company Grill. The resort also houses the world's largest banjo. At 47 feet long, locals have given it the nickname, Branson's Eiffel Tower.
