Although this hotspot is just outside the state park proper, the birds and habitat are similar.

From Lebanon, from the junction of MO 5 and MO 64, go northwest on MO 64 for 10.4 miles to MO 64A. Turn left onto MO 64A to enter the park. If coming from the west, from the intersection of US 65 and MO 64 at the village of Louisburg, go east on MO 64 for 17 miles, then right on MO 64A to enter the park.
