Bagnell Dam Strip at Lake of the Ozarks
The Bagnell Dam Strip has been a huge tourist attraction since the beginning of the Lake of the Ozarks in 1931. Throughout the years hundreds of thousands of people have walked this road. The past couple of years we have seen a decline in traffic on the strip, but with new developments and attractions moving to the strip, and the combined effort to clean it up, the Bagnell Dam Strip is back in full swing!
On the Strip:
You still have your classic shops like Dogpatch which is the longest continually operating business on the strip and originally opened in 1947! It has all sorts of nik naks, souvenirs, and much much more!
You still have the Rebel Arcade that is packed with hundreds of games. There are 2 ice cream shops, and 1 new Frozen Yogurt Bar. Lots of T-Shirt shops, and if you left your swimsuit at home, come on down!
What better way to remember your Trip to the Strip than to take an Old Time Photo that will last forever! Go in and choose from hundreds of costumes and then play out hilarious old western scenes to capture the moment! It's a blast!
