About Shell Knob Rec Site Pavilion

Shell Knob Recreation Site is situated along a bluff overlooking the White River arm of beautiful Table Rock Lake, in an unincorporated portion of Shell Knob. It is a great location to relax and enjoy being away from it all. The site can best be described as resembling a city park with a view. Even though it is near numerous subdivisions, Shell Knob is an unincorporated community.

Nice area for photos, but park could have been maintained better. Dumpster and garbage cans were full. Grass had not been cut in a while. Not all of the fans in the pavilion worked.
