Apple Tree Mall

I visit many flea markets and antique malls similar to this one but it has long been one of my favorites. It is very clean and the temperature is well maintained. The front desk staff are energetic, friendly, and knowledgeable. They seem to have a great attitude for dealing with tourists all day, and I appreciate that on every visit. Most importantly, prices tend to be very competitive making this the sort of place where I start filling my arms with items to purchase. That’s definitely a sign of success for a mall like this one! I especially enjoyed the «beaded booth» which is run by actors trying to make it in the Branson off season. Tons of fun items and movies that are mostly cult classics. Sure there’s a lot of cheesy made in China stuff in this antique mall, but there are plenty of great finds too. Well worth turning off on the 76 strip.

A mix of some antique and craft booths, and some imported junk. Good stuff and bad. You will find some worthwhile and interesting items. Most of those towards the left when you first enter. The cheap, imported stuff is to the right. Not sure if that arrangement was intentional. Since it’s Branson, most items are priced high, but there were some bargains to be found for the antique hunter.

Honestly, I can’t imagine how it’s received anything less than three stars. This is an antique/​flea mall… but more like an antique/​flea mall superstore. If you can’t find it here, you probably can’t find it. If you are in a hurry and just want to fly through, good luck because this place needs the aisle letters to not get lost from your group. The only complaint I had was the time it took to check out, but hey, it’s Branson.

I wish there was a zero star option. This place is an indoor flea market. Its not worth the time it takes to park your car and walk to the building.

This craft mall has seen better days, in fact, I have seen those better days. It used to be a unique place to peruse folk art, but it has turned into a flea market. There are still some artsy booths left, but they are by far the minority. I am hoping for a better future for the Apple Tree Mall, but I am not in a hurry to come back. Stop by if you don’t mind wading through the junk to find the gems here.
