Highlights of Ozark
Willmore Lodge
This incredible historic log building was designed in 1930 by architect Louis La Beaume, president of the St Louis Art Museum. It was initially used as a retreat and entertainment facility during the Great Osage River Project.
Shawnee Bluff Winery
Relax on the outdoor patio overlooking the lake, and indulge in a glass or a bottle of one of the fine wines produced from the surrounding vineyards. Go on a tasting tour of the winery, and discover more about the production process behind these fine wines.
Niangua River
Canoe the Niangua, with its tranquil spots and white water rapids, and explore the stunning Missouri environment. Fish for trout and bass, and pitch up in sixty acres of idyllic campsites to get back to your roots in nature.
Bagnell Dam
Creating Ozark Lake, this 147 feet tall concrete gravity dam was built for the generation of hydroelectric power. Its construction employed hundreds of laborers, a huge economic advantage for the rural area around the dam. It may be apocryphal that the dam has 12 floodgates in order to avoid unlucky 13.
