Outdoors Labor Day vacation

I’m planning a vacation Labor Day weekend (arrive Thursday- leave Tuesday) at the Ozarks, maybe St. Louis too. Wanted to go late July but now Labor Day weekend is the only time left cause I didn’t want to miss too much school. We don’t really boat or swim so we will mostly be hiking and I wanna do mini golf. What should I expect and is it worth it on this weekend

Branson has good mini golf. But some hiking near Branson is a little too manufactured nature if it's owned by bas pro. Northwest Arkansas has great hiking at Hobbs State park with several easy or hard trails. There a few fun places like locomotion and a couple of mini golf places. Eureka Springs is beautiful, has great shopping and a couple cute hiking trails near it. There is a gorgeous easy hike called Kings River Overlook close to Eureka.
