#2 Fish 

Do you love to fish? Fishing is a fun activity to enjoy especially at the Lake of the Ozarks. Plus, when you enjoy fishing you can extend the amount of time you can use your swim dock at the Lake of the Ozarks. Since a swimming dock is away from where you dock your boat, adding a fish habitat is a great way to attract more fish. Considering putting a tree in the water to create a habitat for the fish. *Pro-tip -- Live Christmas Trees make great fish habitats!    

#3 Throw a Party

Your swim dock is the perfect place to throw a party or get together! What's better than enjoying time with family and friends right on the water? A swimming dock allows for enough room to set up a table and chairs perfect for throwing a dock party or having a picnic between swimming. 


#4 Lounging and Relaxing!
