Park Information
Stockton State Park will be closed on Nov. 2 and 3, 2024, due to a managed deer hunt at the park. Only registered hunters and staff or volunteers working the event will be allowed in the park. Camping will be unavailable Nov. 1-3.
The clear waters of Stockton Lake beckon visitors to water ski, scuba dive, swim or fish. And Stockton State Park is the perfect place to do it. It’s an ideal place for sailing, with a perpetual southwest breeze. Two boat launches make it easy to get in the water, as does a swimming beach. Want to stay on land? The park is great for photographing wildlife, picnicking with the family, hiking or just reveling in the beauty of southern Missouri. The park also offers a range of lodging from campsites to cabins.
NEW IN 2024: The park now offers a beach wheelchair that visitors with mobility issues can use during normal beach hours. Click here for more information.
