Description

Overview

Attention Campers! We are looking for volunteers to help us maintain campgrounds. For more information and volunteer applications, call 417-745-6411 and ask for park ranger Heard.

Outlet Park, situated below the Pomme de Terre dam, provides a picturesque setting for fishing, canoeing, hiking and wildlife viewing on the Pomme de Terre River. Above the dam lies Pomme de Terre Lake, nicknamed ''the Gem of the Ozarks'' for its deep, clear waters, plentiful activities and scenic views.

Recreation

Outlet Park is excellent for sports. It marks the trailhead for the 3-mile Healthy Active Community Running River Trail and is also a hot spot for canoeing and kayaking.

Fishing is also a popular, with plenty of crappie and bass in the nearby waters.

Facilities

Outlet Park has 19 water and electric hookups campsites. Amenities include hot showers, a boat ramp, group camping, and a multipurpose playing court, multiple playgrounds, softball/baseball field, horse shoe pits, and a 3 mile walking trail.

Natural Features

The lake and dam are located in the rugged, tree-topped hills of the west-central Missouri Ozarks. The lake stems from the nearby Pomme de Terre River, the only river in the state that flows northbound.
