St. Louis to Lake of the Ozarks State Park

Question

Hey Guys,Leaving St. Louis tomorrow and we're looking at routes to Lake of the Ozarks State Park. We are pulling our 28 foot TT and would like a route that might be scenic yet not TOO challenging? Time is not a huge issue. How is Hwy 54 south from Jefferson City to Osage Beach? Or maybe Hwy 50 west from Union, MO to Jefferson City? We came in on IH 44 from Branson so we've seen that. Thanks

my BIL who has a house in St. Charles and at the lake goes out I-70, down 54 to the lake, not too intimidating IIRC.bumpy

US-54 from I-70 is almost like a limited access highway. It is the primary route from St Louis to Lake of the Ozarks. The formerly congested section from the north side through Osage Beach has been bypassed by a new expressway, it was open all the way through in March this year.
