US 71 to where it becomes MO 59 as it passes under I-44
Turn Left onto MO 86 East and follow it to our driveway
(This route brings you into Cassville from the West, and has the advantage of passing by the grocery store (Ramey's) in case you need to stock up. It is not as direct as it sounds - you'll have several points at which 86 joins and departs other roads, some involving 90 degree turns. But if you follow the road signs, it's the easiest set of directions to follow. It is the better route to follow if you're hauling a boat.)
(For an alternate route from Cassville, which you might prefer if you're not hauling a boat, click here.)
From St. Louis-Springfield and points between:
I-44 to US 65 South. From US 65 turn Right onto MO 86 and go West until you cross the second bridge across Table Rock Lake (which is about 30 miles after the first bridge). In the next 300 yards there will be 3 driveways on the right. The first 2 go to the Eagle Rock Boat Dock. The third one is ours.
(Alternate shortcut for those willing to risk getting lost: Take I-44 to Exit 58, Hwy O [South]. This roadway becomes successively Hwy T then Hwy 14; just stay on it to US 60 [Marionville]. Turn right onto US 60. Turn Left onto MO 39 [at Aurora]. Turn Right onto MO 76 [middle of nowhere]. Turn Left on MO 86 [ditto]. We're about 3 miles past the bridge over Roaring River. Close-in landmarks are the Eagle Rock Volunteer Fire Department on the right and the Commerce Bank and the Eagle Rock Express Mart on the left.)
From Little Rock, AR:
I-40 West to US 65 North in Conway
US 65 to MO 86 West
MO 86 to the Lazy Eagle Resort, which will be the 3rd driveway on the right (first 2 go to boat dock parking lot) after you cross the bridge over Table Rock Lake in Barry County (not the bridge at the Eastern end of the lake near Branson).
(Alternatively, I-40W to US 65N to US 62W to Berryville, then AR 21N to AR 221N/MO39N to MO 86W to our driveway. A bit more to remember, but it will keep you out of the Branson traffic.)
From Memphis, TN:
I-55 North to US 63 North to US 62 West, which you stay with to Harrison, AR. Out of Harrison, North on US65 to MO 86. (This route has a surprisingly large amount of 4-lane highway on it, and is about 30 miles shorter than going through Little Rock on I-44. It is also more scenic, in my opinion. Going toward Memphis it also provides a mind-boggling experience when, just East of Black Rock, you go from mountains to rice fields about 100' below all in the course of one bridge.)
Turn left (West) and follow MO 86 to our driveway, which will be the 3rd driveway on the right (first 2 go to boat dock parking lot) after you cross the bridge over Table Rock Lake in Barry County. (note, thi is about 30 miles after the bridge across TRL in Taney County.).

Cassville to Lazy Eagle Resort Leg
In Cassville turn at the light onto Mo 76/86/112.
MO 112 to Hwy F, in Roaring River Park.
Turn Left on Hwy F and take it to MO 86.
Turn R on MO 86 and go about 3 miles. We're on the left, about 2/10 mile after the Commerce Bank, just below the crest of the hill where you first see the lake.
(Note: The above route out of Cassville involves a steep hill on MO 112 going into the park, and a couple more interesting hills on Hwy. F; when I traveled it with my kids I named it the roller coaster. If you're hauling a boat, camper trailer, etc., you might prefer to take this alternate route, which I named the "twisty-turney." Starting from the light in Cassville, MO 112/76/86 to where MO 76/86 turn left. MO 76/86 to where MO 86 turns right. MO 86 to the Resort. This is perhaps not the preferred route for cars full of kids susceptible to motion sickness, as it follows the ridge line with lots of curves. The ups and downs are much less pronounced, however.)
