Lake of the Ozarks Party Cove
Lake of the Ozarks Party Cove is one of Missouri's wildest party hot spots. The cove has been featured on Playboy TV, A Current Affair and Sexcetera. Party Cove stands out of all of the lakes in the United States as the #1 place to party with thousands of people from all over the United States making their way down each year to join in the fun. Party Cove is the popular name given for Anderson Hollow Cove, a cove in Osage Beach, Missouri that according to the New York Times is the "oldest established permanent floating bacchanal in the country." This popular party hot spot is always filled with thousands of people drinking, having a good time, and even getting naked. Finding Party Cove is no problem. At about noon on any summer Saturday or Sunday, just nose your boat out onto the Lake of the Ozarks near the Grand Glaize Bridge. (where Route 54 passes over the water) In the late morning and early afternoon, hundreds if not thousands of boats - from jet skis and pontoon putt-putts to sleek cigarette boats to 40- and 50-foot yachts - are all headed at idle speed in the same direction. The cove itself is about a mile long and 200 yards wide. The most exciting event of the year is the 4th of July celebration and can have as many as 3,000 pleasure boats with around 8,000 aboard gather in the cove lining up in two rows with newcomers running a gauntlet of water cannon and taunts to take their clothes off. Party Cover or Anderson Hollow Cove is located in the Lake of the Ozarks State Park at the 4 mile marker of the Grand Glaize Arm of the lake. (About a mile south of the Grand Glaize Bridge) So come on down and join the party!
