Welcome to Windsor |
Windsor, Missouri, is located 11 miles north of Truman Lake, 17 miles south of Knob Noster State Park, 27 miles from Harry S. Truman State Park, and 35 miles from the Lake of the Ozarks. Hunting, fishing, and hiking trails are within a short distance and are great for family outings, overnight campouts or just an afternoon picnic.
The beautiful picture featured on this site (above left) is of Windsor's own "Farrington Park Lake" (Photo Courtesy of Walt Moser).
Farrington Park also provides camping, covered shelter houses, fishing, playground equipment, paddleboats, horseshoe pits, tennis courts, a basketball court; and lot of room for a picnic, family reunion and/or just enjoying nature--all within the city limits!
For camping or covered shelter house reservations or specific activity information, please phone 660-647-3130.
Many of the creeks and streams around Windsor are full of large mouth and small mouth Bass, and area lakes include Catfish, White Bass, and Crappie. Depending on preference, rabbit, squirrel, deer, and turkey are among the favorites for local hunters. As an added delicacy, in the Spring, Morel and Red Mushrooms are in abundance and a welcome treat to anyone's dining experience.
The Katy Trail/Katy Trail State Park is also the local favorite for walking, bicycling, and horseback riding as it meanders through the countryside and has stops in several of the surrounding communities including Clinton, Green Ridge, and Sedalia.
Sedalia, 27 miles northeast of Windsor, is also home of the Missouri State Fairgrounds where every August headlining country, rock, and pop artists grace the fair's stages while the mile long midway draws the young and old alike to its rides, games, and food.
Windsor is a wonderful place to visit, relax, shop, recreate or perhaps you'll find yourself like so many others who have decided that Windsor was just too charming to leave.......Feel free to make Windsor your home, we'll welcome you "neighbor!"
