A wide array of other land based activities take advantage of the natural surroundings, in addition to Golf, as well as Parks and Caves, and Wineries are uniquely suited to the environment of the Lake area, as well as to the native terrain of the region. The proudly sustainable, and 100% Missouri Grown, Mathany Family Vineyards are centrally located in Osage Beach just a mile from Highway 54, and Shawnee Bluff Winery, also in Osage Beach, offers spectacular views, dining, and entertainment, all while featuring wines from their vineyard in nearby Eldon. Four other Wineries and Vineyards make their home in the northern area of the Lake region, which lends itself to more sunshine in the less wooded meadows where the rolling hills of the Ozark Plateau become more flatlands and open country of the Midwestern farmland. Closer to town, the Seven Springs Winery and Vineyards features Missouri wines in a setting of hiking trails, patios and lush gardens, which is available to host weddings and private events, just a few short miles from highway 54 at Linn Creek.
