River, Swim, Fish, Float

This site is a must see place if your in the area! You can spend a little time or a whole day lounging in the cool waters rushing through the smooth granite formations. Definitely go see it if you can. There’s also hiking trails that lead to the Taum Sauk trail. There’s a gift shop and changing fascinates as well.

This is a local hidden swimming hole! If you don’t like summer crowds then this is the local hidden spot!

This is a really big deal! If your a mountain biker then you already know about this and you known more than me. There’s a shuttle takes peeps up to the top of Shepherd Mountain and they coast down the trails! Pretty cool stuff. There are more long trek family friendly trials coming soon but this is still kinda for the athletes who aren’t just getting on a bike for the first time in 20 years!

Desi’s is good breakfast and lunch. It’s just a personable down home cafe. Mary will likely be your waitress. That’s just how down home it is!

Great lunch and dinner menus! They have a little sports bar on one side as well. So while it says bar, it’s kinda not a bar. More like an Applebees with bar on the side. So it’s family friendly!

I’ve not been here yet! They are only open on Friday and Saturday. So its probably like a southern “fish camp” Probably should try it. Let me know if you like it.

Really good biscuit and gravy and taters were good. If they happen to have home made cinnamon rolls ready, then I suggest you get one and take it home and not share it. Unless you want to leave one for the cleaner. You can do that If you like. 😉

Neighborhoods

This is a small town with a lot going on! Small shops and great places to visit and eat! Also great top rated schools, affordable housing, and a great low key vibe happening. Your safe here, but I’d still lock my doors up. This is the Ozarks and you may see some Ozark stuff here and there but overall it’s pretty nice.
