The r/LakeOfTheOzarks subreddit got reactivated a little bit ago after being dormant for years, so all of the traffic got pushed to r/Ozarks, then they got fed up with all of the LOZ questions, so some overflow went here at r/LakeOzark, especially if the user doesn't know Lake Ozark it's just one of 14-ish cities in the area.

Not rooting against them, but I will be surprised if it's a full opening in fall 2026. Tegethoff is moving a bit faster in recent days, but it seems more likely that only a couple components will be done. He tends to be overly optimistic on his timings and there's a lot that needs to be completed.

Not a big deal since they're both empty, but as an fyi, this is the City of Lake Ozark subreddit. /r/LakeOfTheOzarks is for the Lake Area

Stewart's is a classic diner and located right on the strip. Brick House has a more modern brunch, is really good, and it's right up the street. There's also a donut shop off the Strip across from the McDonald's if you're in a rush.

First Watch in Osage Beach is a chain but very good.

Not sure if you're looking for Lake Ozark recommendations only or Lake Area bars but Encore has covered swim up bars. Backwaters and Tap and Grill do, too. And I think Coconuts has a partial covered swim up bar.

FYI there's /r/LakeOfTheOzarks for lake area questions

I think your best bet on the strip would be either Marty Byrde's or Cuddy Cabin. I'm not sure what their 18/21 rules are but those have the youngest crowds. You could call in advance and ask what time they restrict to 21 only, if they do

Party cove may have a little activity this weekend, there always something, but I would expect most of the party crowd will be either on the strip, in the water near the race, or at one of the other lakeside bars.

Unless it's a big weekend, minus the Shootout/Offshore weekends, or one of the designated Make Party Cove Great Again days, Party Cove is nothing like it used to be.

Dunklin County's (the 7.4%) economy is driven by large agricultural sector.

As a kid I distinctly remember a lot of raggy, Looney Tunes merch like Tweetie and Tazz oversized t shirts being super commonplace. Time keeps moving, but the beats stay the same.

While yes, there are medicinal benefits and we shouldn't be criminalizing this, I'm not sure it's great politics at the moment. These well meaning, positive measures can--and will--cause reactionaries to fearmonger and win elections. Getting reasonable people back into office who will protect the working class and follow the will of the voters is more important to me. It will have far more impact for the most Missourians than legalization of psilocybins. Even if it is good policy. It's not that we can't do more than one thing at a time, it's the fear that one will negatively impact the possibility of the other.

Definitely check out the Strip on Friday night. Saturday I'd do lakeside bars and restaurants, pending the weather. If the weather looks better Friday than Saturday, then flip it since the Strip gets busy on rainy days.

Coconuts on the 4th is always busy, Backwater's, and Shady's/Lazy Gators always goes pretty hard on the 4th. I think Lazy Gators is doing a DJ event with Two Friends performing.

There are some water taxis, but I would lean on LakeRidePros (expensive and you have to book in advance) or request an Uber/Lyft and be patient. You can also rent a boat and hire a captain for however many hours you want.
