About Table Rock Lake

Table Rock Lake was created by the damming of the White River over 50 years ago.  Table Rock Dam is located in Southwestern Missouri eight miles upstream and Southwest of Branson, Missouri.  Table Rock Lake extends 79 miles upstream along the White River and inundates areas in Missouri and Arkansas.  To the east of the dam, is Lake Taneycomo and Table Rock Lake is on the western side.

You’ll find more than 800 miles of shoreline along Table Rock Lake and over 43,000 acres of surface area.  This vast size of Table Rock Lake makes is a great place for watersports, fishing or relaxing.  Table Rock Lake has many “fingers” or “arms” creating coves.  Coves are often where you’ll find fishermen dropping a line or boats pulling tubes and skiers.  “Coving out,” where several boats will drop anchor and spend the day, is popular during the summer months.  You’ll find small numbered signs around the lake marking points to help you navigate.  If you’re new to Table Rock Lake we recommend picking your own copy of the official Table Rock Lake Map.  You can find them at the Chamber’s Welcome Center or area marinas.
