There are lots of "fixer uppers" and lots of trails to take dogs. Personally I like a spot down at RoundTree Public Access: https://maps.app.goo.gl/pwitJWqBvLeRXeUw6

There are lots of great places to eat, I have lots of favorites depending on types and mood. But, that's a whole other sub. Just dont fall victim of the "Springfield Cashew Chicken" hype. When I moved there people raved about it. I tried a number of places, just to be constantly let down. I warn because every time I tried a place, I was told... oh, you should try it here... or over there. 20 places and lots of dollars later I came to the conclusion that I dont like breaded chicken with Cashew-butter poured on top. (Opinion)

Depending on where your moving from, of course.

Agreed! 100%

Springfield Cashew Chicken is not Cashew Chicken. It doesn't even resemble it. It resembles more closely to cat turds in a litter box that's been barfed on by the dog. You are absolutely right about how it's viewed by the locals as the best thing ever. I have been here for 13 years now, and the best place I have found to get "Good" Chinese food in from China Wok (& The Wok on Scenic). Their Generals Chicken is the closest thing to what I would get at the best places in Kansas City (Dragon Inn)

Don't even get me started on Mexican Villa.
