About Linn Creek

Linn Creek is a quiet, close-knit community of around 200 residents tucked into Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks region. Situated along Highway 54 between Camdenton and Osage Beach, it offers a relaxed, small-town pace while keeping you minutes from the area's marinas, waterfront dining, and shopping. The town also has one of the most interesting backstories in the Ozarks. The original settlement was founded in 1841 and served as the Camden County seat until the valley was flooded to create the lake.

When Bagnell Dam was built in the early 1930s, residents packed up and moved up the hillside to reestablish the town on higher ground. Today, Linn Creek preserves that heritage at the Camden County Museum, which hosts regular community dinners, craft fairs, and local history exhibits. For anyone considering a move to the lake, it offers a peaceful residential setting with quick access to the water and everyday conveniences nearby.
