Eight parks around the lake are managed and maintained by the Corps of Engineers. These parks include roads, utility systems, campsites, beaches, boat ramps, picnic grounds, and playground areas. In addition to Corps-managed areas, the Corps also maintains active lease agreements with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and private entities.
