Welcome to Osceola
and St. Clair County Missouri
|
Osceola is located on Truman Lake about 100 miles south of Kansas City
and 60 miles north of Springfield on Highway 13. Being surrounded
by beautiful bluffs makes for a perfect place to spend the weekend at
our RV park. The fishing and hunting is always great in the
Osceola area and the boating is as good as you will find anywhere. |
