2020 has been a year for the record books, but Shell Knob, MO has remained a very quiet and stable community throughout the pandemic. In March our small community filled up with people from larger cities that own lake homes. Why? "If I'm going to be quarantined and have to work from home, I'm going to do it somewhere peaceful and beautiful." We continued on as a small community that grew seemingly overnight.

We handled it in stride and with dignity as we welcomed our part-time homeowners. They soon became full time and we have enjoyed the extra community bonding. Our lake became busy much earlier than normal. March lake traffic appeared to be the same as July lake traffic. More people have opted to vacation where they can drive rather than fly. Our area is so wonderful and friendly that it was a breath of fresh air to have so many people living here throughout the year.

There are no guarantees what 2021 has in store, but I have no doubt that our small community located on the quiet side of Table Rock Lake will be ready for it.

Table Rock Lake is a great place to spend your 4th of July weekend. If being able to spend a hot holiday on the lake enjoying your favorite activity isn't enough, there are plenty of other things to do in the area. Of course, there is Silver Dollar City which is open with restricted access (please check to see those restrictions), as well as Branson, Eureka Springs, and the Wonders of Wildlife Museum in Springfield. One of my favorite places to visit is the College of the Ozarks. Besides offering young people a way to attend college at no cost, these students learn some real-life lessons. You can do your own walking tour and take in the war memorials, a three-level museum, and sample tasty items that they make on-site such as jellies, jams, pancakes, and biscuit mixes to name a few. They also have as candles, plants, and ice cream made from milk from their own dairy. You will be amazed at what this college offers. There is lodging on-site and great dining at the Keeter Center. Have a safe and happy 4th of July.

Shell Knob has so many fun and family-friendly areas to visit and hang out on the lake. One of the local favorites is the swing at Shell Knob Bridge. It's located on the north side of the bridge right by the local Pizza Hut. On any given warm and sunny day, you can see people of all ages enjoying the fun of climbing up the rocky edge and swinging out over the water.

Another local favorite is Campbell Point Marina. They have a fabulous campsite and swim area. It also features the local favorite of Watson's on the Water, a great BBQ joint! The Marina itself has everything you could want including fishing gear, bathing suits, skis, snacks, beer, and ice cream. Come join us in Shell Knob, we would love to have you!

Shell Knob borders Table Rock Lake on the west side of the lake.

What more can you ask for? It's a quiet place to be in the summer. Come check us out.

A little known amenity available in a very rural area is the Owens Community Center. It is a gathering place for residence that live out in the remote area several miles down Stallion Bluff Lane. It is utilized for picnics, family reunions, seasonal parties and an occasional wedding reception.

Shell Knob supports their community and wants all residence to be safe, no matter where they reside!

This is the public boat launch area located in Shell Knob Missouri by the bridge. I personally love this launch because I have plenty of room to park our truck and boat trailer while we fish. Several fishing tournaments a year start from this launch.

There are four great marinas in this area. First, the Kings River Marina located near Shell Knob will open a new Italian Restaurant in May 2016. Next, the Big M Marina located in the Eagle Rock area has a new owner, Andy Stewart, who plans on revising the Dock and Eat menu in coming months. Then, there is Holiday Island Marina, located on the White River just inside Arkansas from Missouri, which now offers pizza and sandwiches. Finally, Eagle Rock Marina is rebuilding but will open with new facilities and docks in May 2016.
