As the summer days get hotter and hotter, Kansas City movers want new residents to know about the one spot that most residents may not even be aware of. All locals know that there are plenty of lakes in Missouri; however, with the amount of people who flock to these popular lakes to boat, swim and ski, it leaves little to no room for enjoyment.

A suggestion from Alyssa Barnes with Barnes Realty, “If you’re tired of the crowds and congestion of the lakes south of Kansas City, maybe you should investigate Big Lake in rural Northwest Missouri.”

The problem with Big Lake is that no one knows where it is, at least most people don’t. If you are moving to Kansas City, you are in luck because local movers and Barnes are sharing Missouri’s best kept secret – the location of Big Lake!

“It’s about three and a half miles long and offers some of the best boating, skiing and fishing you’ll find in the state,” Barnes said. “It is smooth enough for barefoot skiing. Unlike the large impounded, man-made lakes in Missouri, you own property right up to the shoreline on a level, generally shaded lot without all the restrictions and covenants.”

Big Lake is located just west of Mount City in Holt County, and the property owners in the area are so friendly, they treat each other like family. If you are looking for the perfect place to move to in Missouri that is not too far from Kansas City, Mount City is the neighborhood where you will feel right at home!

This summer, take a break from moving and check out Mount City’s best kept secret – Big Lake!
