Lake of the Ozarks State Park is Missouri's largest and can provide a pleasant diversion while vacationing in the Lake area. The park has 85 miles of shoreline and two public beaches, plus boat launching areas.

Ha Ha Tonka State Park contains over 3,600 acres on the Niangua Arm of the Lake of the Ozarks and is located five miles southwest of Camdenton on State Road D. The park has numerous picnic areas, two of which are shelters that can be rented for events and a playground. A Trail and Natural Area Guide is available at the visitor's center at the park entrance, along with outside exhibits. Visitors for the day can easily arrive by boat or car.

Get Out on the Water
There's no denying that the main reason people are drawn to the Lake area is for the lake itself. Now let's be honest, you didn't buy that lakefront second home with a dock for the local shopping. You bought it to experience the lake living lifestyle firsthand! So, of course, getting out on the water makes our list of must-dos for family fun! Whether your family enjoys fishing, tubing, or simply just relaxing on the boat, spending the day on the water should be at the top of your list during your stay at the Lake.


If you're looking for ways to improve your boating experience, we've got several dock products and accessories that'll make boating and swimming at the lake a breeze! Get on and off the water quickly and safely and preserve the integrity of your boat with a Poly Lift boat lift. Want to take the family pet swimming by the dock? We're now providing a newly designed dog ramp at Poly Lift.  Step up your dock game with Wet Steps and a High Dive. Your kids and friends will love you for it. If you have any questions about any of our products or accessories, call us or stop by one of our convenient locations in Sunrise Beach or Osage Beach.  The staff at Poly Lift would love to help you make your dock and boating experience a fun and safe one. Happy boating!
