Golf in Warsaw

Warsaw is the Benton County seat on Harry S. Truman Lake, a community whose economy has been transformed by the Corps of Engineers reservoir on the Osage River. Truman Lake's 55,600 acres of surface water create a significant recreational resource, and Warsaw has developed the marina, camping, and recreation infrastructure to serve the lake's visitors. Benton County's position in the lake corridor creates an outdoor recreation economy supplementing the traditional agricultural community. Missouri's community golf facilities serve as important social institutions where professional and agricultural families share recreational space, maintaining the civic connections that sustain small-city and rural community life across the state.
