Edgewater Beach Resort is a peaceful oasis away from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life. There are 2 RV sites at Edgewater that are located just a few feet from the water's edge. Lake Taneycomo is a cold- water lake that is famous for trout fishing. The resort has 3 docks that you can fish off of. You can also fish anywhere along the water's edge. Each RV site has water, sewer, and electric hookups, wifi, a private picnic table, and a private firepit/ grill. The sites are separated by a privacy fence for the utmost privacy. The resort has boat rentals, a fish cleaning station, an outdoor pool that is open from Memorial weekend through Labor Day weekend, a playground, and a laundry room. I also have boat slips available to rent for $20 a night. The resort is next to Empire Park which has lots of fishing spots, a playground, a disc golf course, and walking trails. The resort is 16 miles from The Branson Landing. You can get there by car or boat.
Ask me about adding a boat slip to your reservation or about getting a discount for a long-term stay. I offer a 25% discount for stays of a month or more.
Here is the link for boat rentals at the resort: https://www.boatsetter.com/users/wjplgnl
We stay open all year round! Please note, the water spigots at the RV sites can't be turned on if the outdoor temperature is below freezing.
*Lake Taneycomo will look different based on the seasons, weather, and the flow of water in the lake. It is common to see a large amount of duckweed in the lake, especially in the coves, during periods of high heat. It isn't attractive, but it is harmless. The maintenance crew at the resort constantly works to keep the coves looking as nice as possible, but it is a natural body of water, so there's only so much that can be done.*

Please note, This campground is located in a floodplain and weather related cancellations are common.
Fish, Fish, Fish. This river is primed for fishing. You will have to bring your own boat, or float as I don't have good river bank fishing access. I added a small floating dock last year to fish or swim off of. There is a state park boat ramp a short distance away. The steps in the photos are plenty sturdy to tie boats to overnight. This river is fishable with flat bottom jet drive boats most of the spring and early summer and floatable year round. You can float to your campsite and relax instead of waiting in line at the boat ramp.
Also we are located about 13 miles from Crane Creek, A blue ribbon trout park. You can camp here and fish there.

There are several fun activity options like billiards, disc golf, axe throwing (you read that right), and a swimming spot that looks like it would be especially fun for kids when open in the summer.

4 nights at Explore the Ozarks - Dockley Ranch
Four nights here is the perfect amount of time to reset and return to the world. Recommend the route from the East through Alva even if you have to circle around. Double recommend if you have passengers prone to motion sickness. Triple recommend because Alva is cute, and has Melancholy Coffee Roasters.

Really nice site and well-described in other reviews and by Jack. The camping area is on a slight incline, but not bad. A few essential cooking items - two grill grates, a Dutch oven and large skillet with plenty of rocks around the fire pit to set up as you like. Jack was kind enough to text us offering answers to questions.
The trek down to the river is pretty steep and rocky, but not too long. The courtesy railing is helpful but some is detaching from the posts, so watch out where you put weight on it. The trip up is more taxing. I'd recommend staging some things at the base of the trail to the waterfront. There's enough elevation at the base of the trail and it's back far enough you could stage gear without having to worry too much about people seeing it. Critters might visit if you store food or scented bait. We had the pleasure of hiking up and down during and after moderate rain and it wasn't much more slippery nor was there a lot of water taking that path. That could change seasonally.
The path to the canoe is about a couple hundred feet southward. Most of the water in the are is shallow at around two to three feet, with some deeper pools around the rock bar just south of the canoe and more south of that. A couple bigger fish there. To the north near the island it gets shallower and the water moves faster. We didn't go any further north past the island.
The canoe comes with a paddle and several life jackets. Be sure to check them for spiders and other critters.

Where to go
Mark Twain National Forest
Named for another Missouri author, Mark Twain National Forest covers 1.5 million acres in Missouri, and large sections can be explored south of Mansfield in the Ava/Cassville/Willow Springs District. Oak and pine forests, wide-open glades, rollicking hills, and rambling springs greet visitors to this slice of the Ozark Mountains. Dispersed campsites and dry camping can be enjoyed in this scenic environment. Public camping can also be found at conservation areas near the town of Ava.
Springfield, Missouri
Known as the “Queen City of the Ozarks,” Springfield is the largest city in southwest Missouri. It celebrates its Route 66 history, local colleges, and role as the birthplace of Bass Pro Shops. The original store and the attached Wonders of Wildlife Museum are major attractions. Numerous private RV parks can be found, offering amenities such as free wifi and full hookups. Cabin and glamping rentals dot the surrounding region.
Branson, Missouri
One of Missouri’s biggest tourism draws is the town of Branson, which offers a lively mix of theme parks, family attractions, live music shows, and over-the-top museums. While the town’s main strip resembles a mini Las Vegas, the campgrounds are surprisingly scenic. Private RV parks abound, adding to the family fun and offering free wifi and full hookups, with campsites under a canopy of trees. Venture outside of town to find scenery and serenity, with public camping offered on the shores of Table Rock Lake at state park and Army Corps of Engineers campgrounds.
When to go
If you’re visiting Mansfield to explore all things Laura Ingalls Wilder, September’s Wilder Days festival is a must. If you’re not into Wilder, this might be a time to avoid the town, as it attracts more visitors than usual. Though much of the area can be a year-round destination, visitors should note that summer is generally hot and humid and winter can be cold and snowy. Fall and spring usually offer mild weather and changing scenery.
