If
you love camping and floating or
just relaxing and exploring Missouri's
natural wonders from the comfort of a Bed
and Breakfast Inn, Lodge or Cabin,
the Black River Area in the Ozarks is the perfect
getaway or family vacation spot away from the city. Enjoy
Missouri canoeing at
its best, or choose to take a relaxing float in rafts,
tubes or kayaks. Only two hours southwest
of St. Louis, we are the hub of recreational activities
in the Southeast Missouri Ozarks. Visit Taum
Sauk, Missouri's highest mountain, the Ozark Trail,
Bell Mountain Wilderness Area and Mark Twain National
Forest. Elephant Rocks is close by and don't
miss Fort Davidson Historic site. We also have
many artisans
and antique shops in our area. So take
a few minutes to explore our site. We
hope to see you soon! |
