Roaring River State Park is a 4,093-acre park about 8 miles from Cassville in Barry County. It is snuggled into a deep, shady, narrow valley and surrounded by the rugged rocks of the Ozark Mountains. Roaring River State Park is a popular state park for many reasons, but the presence of rainbow trout in the river is one of the main ones, bringing anglers from all over the place. The park has seven hiking trails, picnic areas with tables and barbecues, a swimming pool, and a nature center. There is a large campground, charming rustic cabins, or the Emory Melton Inn for those who are not keen on roughing it.
