About Damsite

Attention Campers! We are looking for volunteers to help us maintain campgrounds. For more information and volunteer applications, call 417-745-6411 and ask for park ranger Heard.Visitors head to Damsite on Pomme de Terre Lake for days of enjoyable boating, fishing and swimming. Just as the name implies, Damsite Park is just above the dam, at the confluence of Lindley Creek and the Pomme de Terre River. The lake is named for the river that feeds it. The phrase "Pomme de Terre" is French for potato or "apple of the earth." Most likely, the river was named by early French trappers and fur traders when they discovered plants resembling potatoes on the riverbanks.

Sites have fantastic water views and both electric and water at each site. Our site was reasonably level. We had a good amount of shade with plenty of space for our slide. Easy access to public restrooms, trash, and dump station as well as a playground. This area is far removed from busy tourist spots, but there are gas stations and grocery stores within an easy drive. Only a few restaurants nearby so come prepared to cook your own meals. Lots of fishing, hiking, and water activities available.

This was our first time to Damsite this year, was surprised to see that Mike and Barb weren’t the hosts this year. Met the new hosts Gary and Mary Kitzmiller. They did a great job. Didn’t care for the diesel Kabota that Gary drove, a little noisy, but then again he can’t sneak up on you. We were on site #62. In the corner at the back of the site was a pile of leaves, wish you would have someone clean that corner out. We are coming back in July to the same site and hope that you or Mother Nature takes care of the problem. All in all, this park is our favorite of all the campgrounds in Missouri. Keep up the good work and can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful campground with views of the lake. Easy day trips to Lake of the Ozarks and Springfield, Missouri. One thing to be aware of is the campsite and driveway lengths indicated on recreation.gov aren’t accurate. Most sites are much longer than indicated. We’ve reported the discrepancy to the Project Office and they hope to have this corrected as soon as possible. You can check with the camp host to verify you can fit. We were in site 12 that is stated as 30’, but we had room for our 42’ fifth wheel, tow vehicle and passenger car. We used Google Earth to estimate the actual length and it was well over 65’.
