How to read the lake
Towns, arms and coves
The lake has no neighborhoods in the city sense. Buyers tend to think in towns and in the arms of the lake — the main channel, the Gravois, the Niangua, the Osage — and then, closer in, in coves and points. Each guide below follows the towns the MLS uses, so the homes and figures on it are the ones a search for that town would find.
Counts and median prices on these cards are homes and condominiums for sale today, from the Lake of the Ozarks MLS. Each guide adds the past year’s sales, how much of what is for sale sits on the water, and a selection of current listings.
Warsaw sits at Truman Dam, where Truman Lake ends and the Lake of the Ozarks begins, and its guide says so plainly — Truman is a different lake with a different character, and some buyers looking at the Lake of the Ozarks find it suits them better.
