Boating Safety at Lake of the Ozarks

Boating at Lake of the Ozarks will deliver one of the best experiences for visitors and residents alike.   Lake Ozark is centrally located in the heart of Missouri runs 92 miles end to end making up 1,100 miles of scenic shoreline.  We love our Lake and we know you do too - so here are some tips on keeping your family and friends safe while enjoying the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks.
  1. Be aware of those around you.  
    • Drive on the right side of the channel or cove.
    • Look before you turn.
    • All boats have the responsibility to take whatever action necessary to avoid a collision or accident.
  2. Wear a Coast Guard approved life jacket while skiing and while operating a personal watercraft.  Small children or non-swimmers should wear life jackets at all times anywhere near or on the water.
  3. Turn your lights on 30 minutes before sunset.
  4. Operate your boat at a safe and prudent speed.
  5. If your boat has a safety cut-off switch, use it.
  6. Upon refueling, check your engine compartment for spillage.  Use your blower to expel fumes.
  7. Get your boat inspected.  The Water Patrol and the Coast Guard Auxiliary provide this free of charge.
  8. Take a boating safety course (Available through the Water Patrol, the Coast Guard Auxiliary and the Power Squadron and online at www.boat-ed.com.)  
  9. Consideration should be given to equipping your boat with a marine radio or cell phone.
  10. Don't drink and drive.  A designated driver is as important on water as on land.
These tips have been adapted from the Missouri State Water Patrol website.  For more information or questions regarding water safety, please visit the Missouri Water Patrol online or contact them directly using the information below.    Missouri Water Patrol also offers a handbook of all the boating laws and safety regulations to help ensure that your Lake Ozark Boating experience is a safe and pleasant one.

It's Canine Cannonball Time at Dog Days!


Summer is here and Dog Days Bar & Grill is ready to give you another year of the best entertainment and dining.  We have been voted the #1 restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks in 2008 and best entertainment in 2010 and 2011.

Dog Days has been a lake favorite for 19 years and has something for everyone: whether you want to sip on one of our signature frozen cocktails, enjoy a nice dinner with your family or dance the night away with one the fabulous bands.



Come see the big air these dogs get at the 6th annual Canine Cannonball.  Spread over 3 days, professional and amateur dogs will travel from all over the country to compete.  Proceeds from this exciting event benefit Dogwood Animal Shelter.  This free family fun event will feature numerous pooches flying off our custom made dock into a pool constructed on our deck!  Anyone with a ball or toy can compete, and you don’t need a special dog or extensive training.  Prizes will be awarded in several categories and “Barking Rights” will be awarded for “Big Air” on Sunday!!



Dog Days menu offers gourmet burgers, steaks, seafood, pasta, fresh salads and appetizers.  We offer lunch and dinner on the water’s edge right in the heart of Osage Beach or on the 19MM by water. 

The variety of live music that we offer is just one of reasons we were voted for #1 Entertainment on the Lake.  We bring in live music every weekend including National and Regional rock, Blues and Country bands on both our inside and outside stages.   Dog Days is also the home to the Canine Cannonball, In-Water Boat Show and the largest Free concert at the Lake, Aquapalooza.
