Lake of the Ozarks stands as one of the most attractive tourist spots in the midwest. It is also known as the best recreational lake in the country because it offers lots of exciting outdoor activities like boating and fishing. But did you know that this lake has nearly 617 billion gallons of water and was the largest man-made lake at the time of its construction?

Lake of the Ozarks is located in the northern part of the Ozarks in central Missouri. This lake has an insane 61,000 square miles of surface area with 1,150 miles of shoreline. Not just that, this lake is 92 miles long and around 130 feet deep, making it one of the largest and deepest lakes in the world. Unlike other lakes, it has a unique serpentine shape that gives it the nickname Puff The Magic Dragon.
Lake of the Ozarks was previously known as Lake Osage and Lake Benton, but today, everybody knows it as Lake of the Ozarks. The lake was constructed in 1931 and was the largest man-made lake in the United States. The purpose of its construction was to produce hydroelectric power, but gradually, it became one of the most attractive tourist destinations. Reports show that over 5 million people visit Lake of the Ozarks every year to spend their vacations like never before.
Lake of the Ozarks is an easy-to-reach destination either by car, rail or by air. So, you don’t have to worry about finding the best route to reach this lake.
Although it is a lake, it is famous for its beautiful parks. Those who visit this lake always visit two of its famous parks: Ha Ha Tonka State Park and Lake of the Ozark State Park. These two spots are also known as the most family-friendly spots in the Ozarks. Ha Ha Tonka State Park covers an area of 3,700 acres and is located on the Niangua side of the lake. This park gives attractive views of the ruins of the early 20th-century ghosty castle. Apart from this, the Ha Ha Tonka State Park is famous for hiking and water activities like swimming, fishing, and boating. This spot is also perfect for exploring geographical locations like caves and sinkholes.
The other one is Lake of the Ozark State Park. It is the largest state park in Missouri and provides easy access to the lush Ozark Mountain landscapes. It has two state park marinas providing rentals for water activities like boating and fishing. But this park is not limited to just water activities. It offers a 13-mile trail of four winds for hiking lovers to explore fascinating water views. The southeastern region of this park has several shorter hiking spots that make it the best sport for hikers to enjoy their time. And not to forget, this famous park is known for its campgrounds where you can camp and enjoy your trip.
The Bridal Cave is another attractive place that you should visit during your trip to Lake of the Ozarks. This lake is centuries old and is located near the city of Camdenton. To explore this cave, the area provides guided tours that are available throughout the year. The exciting fact about this cave is its consistent temperature which remains 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This cave is just amazing and you’ll never want to miss it out during your trip.
The Bagnell Dam in Lake of the Ozarks is yet another awesome spot to enjoy freshwater. The dam expands over 2,500 feet and its job is to produce hydroelectric power for the area. But why do people visit this dam? It is because of its engineering that gives the dam an amazing look. Not just that, the opposite side of Bagnell Dam offers classic summer activities and is full of family-friendly shops and restaurants and organizes the hot summer nights motor festival. This spot in Lake of the Ozarks is a perfect place for those who want to enjoy summer vacations with their family.
Towards the south of Osage Beach, there is the Big Surf Waterpark that remains crowded every summer. Whether you want to swim or enjoy beautiful water attractions like lazy rivers, this waterpark is what you should consider. Big Surf Waterpark is also famous for its exciting water rides including the three-story Zambezi Falls water halfpipe.

Beautiful place - you gave me some great ideas for when I visit. Thanks!
awesome place😊
The netflix show has made me curious about here. Great video!
It wasn’t even filled here lamo, well very little.
It's not just sunshine and jet skies here don't get it fuct up
puff the magic dragon? heard it called the Missouri Dragon, but not Puff
I think you are confusing the water depth with table rock. lol
Could you give an approximate figure for building with property on that Duplex? Cheaper to buy one, or build a Duplex?
Thank you
It would be cheaper to build your own if you go through ubuild it. Just cause you can customize everything in your own way.
And, when you come for a visit, unless you want people looking at you funny, be sure to pronounce Osage like “Oh-Sage” instead of “Ah-Sodge”. 😂
I don't agree. 100 plus miles south are the try lakes of MO. Table Rock. Bull Shoules Tanicomo. I've been to all of them. Ozarks is graded as the #1 most dangerous lake in the country. Decadent lifestyle, no doubt.
If you dunk and jump in the water unfotunate things can happen its not dangerous
