Lakes

Missouri is known for its many waterways. But, what's the deepest lake? I'll give you a hint. It descends 220 feet straight down at its deepest point and it's probably not the one you think.

It's easy to take something for granted when it's located practically in your own backyard. This is a great example of that. A national website had its readers rank the most beautiful lakes in Missouri and near the top is Mark Twain Lake.

I don't think I would have believed this if I hadn't seen it. A brand new video share shows the drastic change that the ongoing drought has done to a Missouri lake. Jaw-dropping only begins to describe it.

I don't understand why a lake in Missouri is frequently overlooked when you come across "best" this or "best" that involving water areas. I can argue that this Missouri lake is the most underrated place in America.

Have you ever had someone say something to you that sounds outrageous, but ends up being absolutely correct? That's what happened when I read that one of Missouri's most beautiful lakes also happens to be one of the most dangerous in America.

As a kid in Missouri, I always wanted a treehouse. That sadly never worked out. But, I have found one as an adult that just so happens to sit next to a huge 60-acre lake in Missouri's Mark Twain National Forest.

I have come across one of the most peaceful lakes I've seen in Missouri. While I admit that I don't get out enough, I doubt you've heard of this calm water place either located near Columbia.

If you love homes that are hidden away from civilization that also have lakes, I have found a sweet place near Monroe City, Missouri you need to see. It's a unique A-frame home that has a fully-stocked lake and a paddleboat.

If you're interested in a staycation, I found a place in central Missouri that is loaded with water options galore. It has a pool outside, a hot tub inside and even a nearby lake.
