Roaring River Restaurant

Located inside the Emory Melton Inn & Conference Center, the Roaring River Restaurant offers park visitors a casual dining experience with a wonderful view of the park. Featuring a rustic outdoor atmosphere, their full-service menu offers breakfast, lunch and dinner entrees. A bar is also available. In addition to the main restaurant, specialty catering is offered as well, available for special events such as weddings, parties, banquets, and reunions.

Snacks, drinks, and sandwiches are also available at the park store.

Emory Melton Inn & Conference Center

The Emory Melton Inn & Conference Center is a large, stunning facility, perched upon a hill with great views of the park. They offer guest rooms from March thru October, and each room is decorated with a rustic yet comfortable style. Some of the rooms also offer private balconies with views of the river valley below. Every stay comes with that familar Ozarks hospitality!

The great room, just beyond the lobby, is a large, two-story timber walled room with a massive stone fireplace that immediately catches your attention. Hanging on the wall, a large wooden canoe, and some deer mounts are also worth seeing. Comfortable, leather seating invites you to relax and stay awhile, and a small coloring table with stuffed toy animals will keep the kids entertained.

Other facilities include three meeting rooms, available for parties, gatherings, reunions, meetings, weedings, and much more. Reservations for the guest rooms and meeting rooms are required, so please call (417) 847-2330.

Cabins

Scattered throughout the park, twenty-six cabins are available for guests to stay the night. Cabins range from single units, duplex cabins, and four-plex units for families, groups or friends. Each unit comes with a kitchen, complete with cooking utensils, post & pans, dishes, toaster, and coffee maker. Satellite television, bathrooms, and linens are also furnished, and each unit has a heater/air conditioner.
