I went to the Ozarks last year and stayed at Buccaneer Bay by Captain Rons and had a blast, did the boat and party cove thing also. I got with a group of about 12 guys, and I this year we are taking an extra day and getting there Thursday afternoon. We are thinking of doing a bar crawl on Friday afternoon and was wondering if there was any veterans of party cove out there that could tell me what bars I needed to make sure to go to.

Thanks in advance

Frankie and Louis is great. Just a Bar and resturant. Was there Saturday and Thursday last week.

Toad Cove has 2 big bars. You have Shady Gators and Toads. You can walk from one to the other.

I have a Condo down in the Ozarks and go down every other weekend

Awesome thanks I will add that to the list, since we have a cabin in sunrise beach, we mainly want to hit up Osage beach during the daylight hours since we will have about 13 ppl in a truck and don't want to deal with the lay after dark for having to many people in the back of the truck. We have one sober driver so that isn't a issue

we went to a newer or remodeled place around the 26 MM called Papa Chubby's. clean and good food. actually ran into some iowa state fans there saturday night. they have different cover bands throughout the week. but i wouldn't go there looking for the ladies though.

Larry's on the Lake and fish & company (linn creek arm) are good too.

breakfast at millers landing is delicious (with a side of bubba tators) but you have to wait a while for food.

we didn't go to Ron's this year because we thought their food has been dropping off. but it has have the nice beach and usually some nice scenery.

Papa Chubbys was ok, owner was nice, staff could be faster and more friendly.
