For those itching to dive back into nature with modern conveniences at their fingertips, Lake of the Ozarks State Park's campground section 4 is now sporting a fresh look and upgraded amenities. Following extensive renovations, the campground reopened today, as confirmed by Missouri Department of Natural Resources, unveiling 25 new campsites that now offer water, sewer, and 50-amp electrical services—vital resources for anyone's RV or camper needs.

The fresh additions to the park don't end at utility hookups; adventurers can now experience the great outdoors with a twist of comfort, thanks to the introduction of four new yurts in section 2, part of Missouri State Parks’ slew of revenue bond projects, which have been ongoing across the state and more information can be found for those interested in the broad-swath upgrades by visiting the parks' website. This wave of renovation began back in November 2024, and it was a much-needed facelift for the popular outdoor destination.

Grab your calendar and circle today's date because, starting at 8 a.m. this morning, reservations went live for the new campsites (103-110, 112-120, and 160-167) and Yurts (C-F), all of which boast new numbering systems and are available for immediate occupancy. As for the curious folks who like to see the ribbon cut, mark another date—August 28 at 10 a.m.—when the park will hold a ceremony to officially welcome these renovated facilities.
