About
Murphy Park is a quiet community park in Branson that offers families a free, relaxed alternative to the busy tourist attractions along the strip. The park has solid playground equipment for younger kids and enough open space for older children to kick a ball around. It's well-maintained and rarely crowded, making it a great spot for a morning outing before hitting the main Branson attractions in the afternoon.
Locals love it for its calm, neighborhood feel that's a welcome break from the high-energy entertainment zones.
