Let's be honest, the Lake of the Ozarks is just more fun on a boat. If you aren't towing your own to town, don't worry! The many boat rental businesses at the lake make it easy to get out on the water in no time. Spend your day in a quiet cove, swimming and relaxing. Or hop around our amazing waterfront restaurants that offer breakfast, lunch, dinner, nightlife, entertainment, and swimming pools. Many boat rental companies offer tubes, skis, and wakeboards so you can enjoy watersports too.
