Things to do in Lake of the Ozarks

Lake of the Ozarks was created when Bagnell Dam closed off the Osage River in 1931, and its winding, serpentine shape gives it well over a thousand miles of shoreline in the hills of central Missouri. Towns such as Osage Beach, Lake Ozark, Camdenton and Sunrise Beach have grown up around it, and the lake has become the Midwest’s classic second-home destination, with waterfront houses, marinas, resorts and golf courses. Real estate, construction, boating and hospitality drive the local economy, and many owners split their time between the lake and Kansas City or St. Louis.

  1. 01

    Ha Ha Tonka State Park

    Above a spring-fed cove near Camdenton, the stone ruins of an early 20th-century castle overlook the lake, surrounded by sinkholes, natural bridges and wooded trails.

  2. 02

    Lake of the Ozarks State Park

    Missouri’s largest state park offers swimming beaches, boat launches, horseback riding, hiking and tours of Ozark Caverns on its quiet stretch of shoreline.

  3. 03

    Bridal Cave

    Near Camdenton, guided tours lead through rooms of onyx formations, and the cave’s name comes from the weddings that have long been held inside.

  4. 04

    Bagnell Dam Strip

    Next to the dam that created the lake, this classic strip of bars, shops, arcades and restaurants is the lake’s original entertainment district.

  5. 05

    Dock-and-dine restaurants

    Many waterfront restaurants and bars around the lake have slips for visiting boats, and arriving by water for lunch or sunset dinner is a local tradition.

  6. 06

    Lake golf courses

    Several championship courses lie close to the shoreline around Osage Beach and Lake Ozark, making the area a popular destination for golf weekends from spring through fall.
