My family and I enjoyed our visit. Using golf carts was a different but fun experience. Living in the burbs of Chicago, it was great to see and hear the various waterfalls. We also enjoyed the view of Table Rock Lake from several locations on the property. The golf cart worked as you have control over how long your tour would be. We stopped several times, mainly where there were waterfalls, and we had no difficulties with other visitors. After the canyon tour, we were also impressed with the museum showcasing native American artifacts and the history of the area.

The tour was a bit slow due to people stopping for photos. There were spots to pull off but most just stopped and we all had to wait. Golf carts don’t go very fast and it was a super hot day. Tunnels were cool (no pun intended) and waterfalls were beautiful.

Top of the Rock. Gorgeous scenery, breathtaking waterfalls, and amazing caves! And you do it all while driving a golf cart. You can even stop in the batcave and get an alcoholic beverage. Everyone gets a golf cart. I know they say first come first serve but everyone gets the golf cart. You just might have to wait in the line. The line moves pretty quickly. Would definitely come back

We visited Too Of The Rock Ozarks and took the golf cart tour. That was an amazing experience. It was my wife's birthday so I let her have all the fun of driving the golf cart. The scenery was beautiful. Long cascading waterfalls leading to winding streams and rivers, huge rock cliff formations, caves and tree filled valleys. The place was HUGE. The whole ride/tour is almost 3 miles long with plenty places to take pictures. It was super busy with it being July 4th weekend but they got us through quickly. Great place to check out of you love nature. Very friendly/helpful staff.

Absolutely beautiful views and such a fun experience overall! The cave and trail were stunning, and the whole setup is very unique. That said, we had to wait over an hour for a golf cart because it was so busy. Once on the trail, people stopping and blocking traffic caused us to get stuck several times in the hot sun. It wasn’t the park’s fault — just peak season crowds. I’d definitely recommend visiting during a less busy time for a smoother experience. I’d still visit again because the scenery made it worth it!
