Bledsoe Ferry in MO -- Campground & RV Camping

Bledsoe Ferry Park is a year-round day-use area located directly below Harry S. Truman Dam on the Ozark Plateau. Surrounded by oak, hickory, and cedar bluffs, the park overlooks the 8,800 acres of standing timber in Harry S. Truman Reservoir, a habitat for crappie, bass, and catfish.

Truman Visitor Center sits nearby atop Kaysinger Bluff.
