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.

Our stay was outstanding! Especially when our RV started tripping the 30 amp breaker in the post. When I went to the Park Host, Mike & Barb, Mike called the Park Ranger, who contacted the maintenance group and in less than an hour, they came out and changed out both the 50 and 30 amp breakers. We didn't have a problem after that. This was very important because of the heat that we experienced the week of our stay, high 90's and heat indexes into the 100's. The campsites were pretty clean and the only issue I had would be enforcement of campers to pick up after their dogs. Way to much waste next to the road(s).

Pomme de Terre, Damsite is the best place to camp/glamp. The park attendants are super professional and very friendly. The maintenance staff are thorough. Grounds workers keep areas cut and weeded. The park keeper keeps campsites picked up and firerings cleaned up. The Rangers are extremely helpful and friendly.

Camp sight looked great but I was wondering if we were getting my money back because we were told to leave Yellowstone because of conditions

Got tired of hearing a dog bark most of the time. Was told nothing could be done so we won't be back.

Great park with beautiful sites and views. Would highly recommend staying here. ONLY DOWNSIDE is do not rely on using showers. No hot water at anytime of day. Luke warm spurts at best. We thought maybe we just hit after busy spell. NOPE! No one was using showers...always empty. Even went up to the other section of park and did a test at 1:00 in afternoon. NOT EVEN LUKE WARM!
