Smithville

Smithville is best known within Missouri for Smithville Lake, a reservoir on the Little Platte River north of Kansas City. Managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the lake was completed in 1979 as part of flood-risk management for the Little Platte basin. Its shoreline gives this Clay County community a strongly recreational character, with boating, fishing and camping closely tied to life around the water. Smithville is also part of the Kansas City metropolitan area, pairing the pace of a smaller Missouri town with access to the region’s urban cultural life.
