Summer Is Almost Here

Our condo at Lake of the Ozarks, MO is pretty much summer-ready at this point, and SO AM I!  I’m looking forward to fun on the water with our new toys

and sleeping in our incredibly comfortable bed.

I can’t wait for all the fun to be had on the water with friends and family, exploring the restaurants we know and love and some new ones, and shopping at the outlet mall.

Even more so, I’m looking forward to exploring the parts and places unknown to us during some of our weekend trips. We know there’s a lot of other places to discover and explore than what we’ve already experienced.  Here’s a list:

 

Fun for the family!  Choose from 4 different rooms to crack the code and make your escape from the room.

15 miles of winding trails which take you past caves, a spring, a natural bridge, sink holes, and down to the lake.  There is also, what remains, of a huge stone castle that was built in the early 1900s.

Missouri’s largest state park which has 89 miles of lake shoreline. Swimming, camping, boating, hiking, mountain biking, and horseback trail rides.

A 60-degree cavern which has onyx formations, giant mineral columns, delicate soda straws and huge draperies throughout.  Weddings are also performed here year-round.

Another cavern that offers guided tours through the stalagmites, Onyx Falls, and Hanging Gardens. You can even plan a Valentine’s Dinner in the caverns.

3 thrilling Ziplines  with amazing lake views. They offer team building experiences and eco-education that can be followed with a picnic lunch.

Leisurely kayaking and stand-up paddleboards on calm waters in a serene setting. BYO picnic lunch and enjoy the lakeshore picnic grounds.

 

We’ll see how many of these activities I get to check out this year. It looks like plenty to keep everyone entertained and I’m looking forward to it!
