We've been going for years and have seen it change many times. The most recent expansion and changes is almost done. Still a fun time for our family to see the aquariums with all the fish, the alligator pit, the turtles sunning on the log, the trophy animals on display still wow us. We never intend on buying anything but... More

We have been wanting to see this Bass Pro Shops for a long time. We've been to the one in St. Charles, MO a few times, but its size doesn't compare. As far as the retail side of our visit, it wasn't much different than going to the other Bass Pro or Cabela's. Just more merchandise. We expected fairly high... More

We don't live far from a regular Bass pro Shop - but this place is insane! Lots to see and do and the decor is amazing. We ate in the restaurant at the bar which was good. I highly recommend it for families. More

It's decorated "very outstanding" their are aquariums with fish, a alligator and even some ducks. We did get stuck in the elevator on the way up to Hemingways, where we ate dinner and that is also very good. Their are also some other places where you can get a quick bite to eat. The Wonders of Wildlife (WOW) appears to... More

This is an experience for people who like the outdoors to shop till they drop. If you can't find it here, they'll help you find it somewhere else. Just super people to do business with. Children of all ages who like the outdoors will enjoy this place. It is being redesigned, so we'll need to come back again when the... More

I have visited the "Flagship" Bass Pro a number of times over the years. I have always considered it an "attraction," not a shopping venue. While I have purchased things there, that is more accidental. Just go for the experience! The place is filled with log cabin decor, a myriad of animals (mostly taxidermy but nice), waterfalls, and seasonal items.... More

Visited the basspro shop during my visit to Springfield. Just like a heaven for the ourdoor lovers but I feel a price was a bit too high for everything. Other than that, well worth the trip. I did buy an deer themed chandelier that looks great in my house! More
