We already know that the Lake of the Ozarks is one the best places to take in some gorgeous fall sites but in a recent article written by USA Today, Lake of the Ozarks makes the list for leaf-peeping by boat. There is nothing better than watching the leaves change colors in the fall, and it's even better by boat. Our Lake of the Ozarks attraction is gorgeous during fall, so make plans to visit us by water and take in some spectacular fall sites on your way!

During your boat ride, you can expect to see blackgum, hickory, sweetgum, red maple, dogwood, buckeye trees, and more - all of which make for a beautiful fall landscape!
