... a bit of history.
Lake of the Ozarks Real Estate Osage Beach Missouri

As the United States expanded settlers started showing up in what is now the city of Osage Beach in the 1830's. They followed the river tributaries into what was initially Kinderhook County before its name changed in the mid 1800's to Camden County. In 1886 a post office was established where the Glaize and Osage river converge. As time went on people living in this area, Shawnee Bend, Turkey Bend, what is currently Lake of the Ozarks State Park and the Osage River bottom started to say they were from Zebra. With the building of Bagnell Dam in 1929-1931, the flooding of Lake of the Ozarks wiped out the town of Zebra. The Zebra post office prior to the flooding was moved to another building on the top of the nearest bluff. Some of the former Zebra residents moved to change the post office designation to Osage Beach in 1935 and for 20 years people decided if they wanted to receive mail there.

The idea of incorporating the town of Osage Beach, was neither a wide-spread nor well supported idea. By the end of 1958 a group of citizens began to organize toward the incorporation of Osage Beach. The increasing tourism had started to affect the local politics... The reason for incorporation came from the need for a city-wide vote in order to have liquor-by-the-drink. Accoding to state laws, locals could NOT vote to sell liquor in this manner. On May 22, 1959 Osage Beach was officially born as a fourth class city. After incorporation citizens disputed and there was a legal battle with a petition filed for disincorporation of the city, which ended in 1960 and Osage Beach, with its water font real estate began its residential and commercial legacy of growth and development in the "Heart of Lake of the Ozarks".

The city of Osage Beach was platted in 1928, by real estate developers who sold real estate even before Bagnell Dam and Lake of the Ozarks was completed. The City of Osage Beach got the "beach" part of its name, because of a man-made sand beach on the banks of the Osage River. This sand beach no longer exists due to Bagnell Dam being completed, the water that is retained by the dam flooded the sand beach. Two small towns, Zebra and Damsel existed here originally next to the Osage River. Zebra was named for the striped appearance of nearby bluffs. The town of Damsel was located just west of the present day highway 54 and State Route KK. As the area developed both towns were incorporated into Osage Beach. Today approximately one half of the city of Osage Beach is located on the east side of the Grand Glaze Bridge and the other half is on the west side.

The actual location of the city of Osage beach Missouri is 38° 8′ 18″ N, 92° 38′ 55″ W. According to the United States Census Bureau, Osage Beach has 10.1 square miles of real estate, of which, 9.4 square miles of it is land and 0.7 square miles of it is water. The city of Osage Beach is located on the shores of the Lake of the Ozarks in central Missouri. Osage Beach is a city that is actually located in two counties both Camden and Miller in the "Show Me" State. There is no personal property tax in the City of Osage Beach, as there is a 2% sales tax that goes to running the city. With a estimated 5 million visitors annually and a estimated 1/2 billion dollars in retail sales, Osage Beach is the primary destination for tourists and retail sales around the lake area.

Our Lake of the Ozarks Real Estate in Osage Beach Missouri, has 12.5 acres of primarily undeveloped land and is currently for sale by owners. Our waterfront property is one of the largest undeveloped parcels of land left in the city that has usable shoreline. The water adjacent to our property is deep enough for boat docks. Lake of the Ozarks runs 92 miles end to end from Bagnell Dam to Truman Dam with over 40 miles of un-obstructed tributaries, over 1150 miles of shoreline and 57,000 acres of water. This is more shoreline than the state of California has coastline. Lake of the Ozarks is surrounded by many small city's such as Osage Beach, Lake Ozark, Barnett, Brumley, Climax Springs, Eldon, Camdenton, Rocky Mount, Stover ,Sunrise Beach, Greenview, Gravois Mills, Tuscumbia, Porto Cima, Roach, Versailles, Iberia, Kaiser, Laurie Linn, Ulman, Montreal, Macks Creek and Warsaw. Our Lake of the Ozarks real estate is located in the heart of Osage Beach, with a undisturbed view of Lake of the Ozarks State Park that almost goes beyond description. Osage Beach is one of the most popular destinations for tourists due to its location in relation to the lake, party cove, the state park airport and other major cities such as Saint Louis and Kansas City. Lake of the Ozarks State Park offers modern amenities such as the Lee C. Fine Airport, and is large enough for smaller commercial or large private jets. Lake of the Ozarks State Park, is the largest state park in the state of Missouri, comprises 17,203 acres. Before Bagnel Dam was completed from above the dragon shaped lake it would impound was over a year from being open to the public and as yet to be named. This is why for many years Lake of the Ozarks was know as the "Dragon Lake".
