Small Town Charm Surrounded By Ozark Beauty
Stover, Missouri, in Morgan County, is a pleasant community nestled near the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks. It's served by State Highways 52 and 135, about 50 miles west of Jefferson City and 100 miles southeast of Kansas City.
Area settlement began in the 1820s. Morgan County was organized from Cooper County in 1833 with Versailles being named the county seat.
