Truman Reservoir Visitors Center sits on a bluff at the east end of the dam, high above the beautiful reservoir. The visitors center is a place for the whole family to enjoy. The panoramic view of the lake and dam from the upper level is amazing. There’s a short film that gives a quick overview of the history of the dam and a timeline with more information about the people and events that shaped this area. The display of replicated mastodon bones was interesting as well as information about the animals indigenous to this area. There are artifacts and other displays. Across from the center there are some historic buildings and trails that are open to the public. We thought this was an interesting and enjoyable place to visit and gain a greater appreciation of the area.
