The far west end: wide water and real seclusion

The area

About Climax Springs, Edwards & the Upper Osage

At the lake’s far western end, the upper Osage arm runs toward Truman Dam. Climax Springs and Edwards are the towns on this stretch, and it is where buyers come for seclusion: fewer boats, more land, and long quiet coves.

Waterfront here often comes with more acreage than on the east side, and with a longer drive to the lake’s busiest amenities — a trade many owners are glad to make.
