A groundbreaking ceremony has taken place for a new amusement resort that is to be built on the shores of the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, US.

Oasis at Lakeport

SkyView Partners and Tegethoff Development are the two companies behind the Oasis at Lakeport development, which is set to include amusement rides and attractions in its first phase.

The US$400m attraction is due to open in summer 2025 and will offer 25 acres of attractions, as well as a hotel resort and indoor water park which are due to be built at a later date.

Todd Schneider, co-managing partner of SkyView Partners, said: “With construction underway, we are targeting a Summer 2025 grand opening for Oasis with restaurants and numerous amusement offerings, including roller coasters, a 200ft tall observation wheel and thrill and family rides.

“Oasis at Lakeport will offer family friendly offerings to the Osage Beach community and numerous tourists who are looking for memorable activities and experiences to share with family and friends.“
