Lake Ozark

Few cities in Missouri have a history as closely tied to the construction of Bagnell Dam as Lake Ozark. Built across the Osage River and completed in 1931, the dam created the Lake of the Ozarks, a vast reservoir whose branching shoreline has shaped the area’s identity and economy. Lake Ozark developed beside this engineering landmark and remains closely connected to boating, fishing, marinas and lakefront recreation. The Bagnell Dam Strip is the city’s established commercial corridor, with locally run shops, restaurants and seasonal entertainment.
