It's a great beach to go to with the family of you live in/near the Ozarks. I think it's got a lot of variety spaced out evenly throughout the town of stockton area. Me and my family enjoy going any time we do, which should be more frequently than normal. We now live in Springfield so it's a bit of a scenic drive for a few hours but it's worth it. Make sure if you don't pay online and will wait the 7 days or however long it ends up taking, or there's a drop box where you can deposit your money and info.

Our church recently used the pavilion at Ruark Bluff Beach for a day camp activity, and it was a great experience. The area was clean and well-maintained, with plenty of space for our group to spread out and enjoy the day. The nearby playground was a big hit with the kids, giving them a fun and safe place to play. We were especially grateful for the beautiful weather—it made the whole day even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a perfect spot for a family-friendly gathering, and we’d definitely come back!

Beautiful park and beach but either cut down this tree or move the swings. These poky things shouldn't be by a kids playground and beach.

This is an awesome little park to come and have a chill session. Picnic tables and grills not far from the water. Bathrooms and even a set of swings. The beach has decent sand and it's a beautiful lake! We hit this place up on a Tuesday and scored the whole place to ourselves. Nice little place to sit and take or eat some brats and swim!

Great beach, has picnic benches, plenty of sand area, and Bathrooms. The view is pretty good besides a bridge that is fairly close to it.
