Overview

About

Located on the banks of the Missouri River is Randall Creek Recreation Area. This is one of those places where you don’t need to feel bad about not being productive, and are encouraged to relax the day away while appreciating the beautiful shoreline and wildlife. Speaking of that, this is a primo place to spot bald eagles that frequently perch near the river banks. The key is to spot them in the AM when they’re feeding or roosting in trees in the afternoon. Fishing is a solid choice too, with a dock and cleaning station at the ready. Anglers routinely pull walleye, northern pike, bass, and catfish. Outdoor lovers are in for a treat!
