For a landlocked state, Missouri has a surprising amount of freshwater. The state is bisected by the Missouri River and is also home to hundreds of lakes. The most famous of these is Lake of the Ozarks, which is so large it has more coastline than the state of California. The state also offers plenty of activities to choose from, such as boating, swimming, fishing, waterskiing, and more. Another top lake in Missouri is Harry S. Truman Lake. In addition to water sports, you can try riding a horse along some of the trails on land. Meanwhile, Table Rock Lake, near Branson, is surrounded by stunning mountain views. Adventurous scuba divers in this manmade lake will find a sunken town of Oasis, complete with an old main street. Heading here? Check out our picks for the top lake cabin rentals in Missouri, USA.
