About Table Rock Lake
Everything you might not know about our beautiful #TableRockLake ! It is one of the popular draws for the nearby town of Branson, Missouri. There are several commercial marinas along the lake, and Table Rock State Park is located on the east side, both north and south of Table Rock Dam. Still Waters Resort is located on Indian Point and provides a full-service marina, multiple docks with rental boats, and slips for our guest’s boats. Downstream from the dam, the Missouri Department of Conservation operates a fish hatchery, which is used to stock trout in Lake Taneycomo. The cold water discharged from the dam creates a trout fishing environment in Lake Taneycomo.
