Welcome to Camden County!
Camden County is located in southern central Missouri and just about 2 hours east of Kansas City and 2 hours west of St Louis! Camden County is an outdoor persons dream! Camden County borders the Lake of the Ozarks, which is the premier Midwest's resort destination. There is world class boating which can be seen just by driving by the lake or through any town. We stayed in Osage Beach and we saw two boat dealerships within a couple miles of each other plus we saw many boat lift companies. There are plenty of golf courses, great variety of lodging options, and lots of restaurants!
There are also many tourist attractions one can spend their day frequenting. Bridal Cave is located underneath Thunder Mountain and was rumored a couple centuries ago to hold a legendary Indian wedding ceremony. Nowadays they give tours daily and the cave is available for reservation for couples who would like to be married there.
Right above Bridal Cave is Thunder Mountain Park. There you can find the Ozark's largest lakeside giftshop, nature trails, picnic and viewing areas, an observation tower, and the Thunder Mountain Mining Company where you can purchase rocks and minerals, gemstones and education materials.
