Cooper's
Landing is also home to the Providence Bend Boat Club. Boat ramp
and temporary trailer parking areas are usually reserved for club
members but $5 day passes are available when boat club activities
are low. If you are planning a trip by river, you will want to
know the river stage at Boonville since it is the closest gage
upstream.
This
Missouri River Oasis is owned and operated by Mike Cooper. Mike
pioneered this premier stretch of wooded land along the Missouri
River, which was left after the river town of Nashville was
flooded out in 1844.
