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.

Number of accommodations: 87

The weeds are terrible around the Waterfront it's pretty bad when you actually witness somebody taking their weed eater and making a spot just so they can get back and forth from their boat ...that needs mowed down!!!!

Love our campsite. Great view of lake. Quiet. Private. Close to bath house. If you are looking for quiet place to unwind Pomme De Terre lake is the place.

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.
