About this map

Table Rock Lake dominates this portion of Barry County, its winding shoreline creating a complex geography of peninsulas and deep hollows. The community of Shell Knob serves as a primary hub in the north, surrounded by residential developments with names like Chalet St and Arrowhead Cir. Farther south, the terrain transitions into a more rural pattern where older landmarks remain, including Field School and the Viola Cemetery.

Transport and topography are closely linked here, as roads like State Hwy YY follow the high ridges above the water. Historical sites such as the McGuire Cemetery and Field Cemetery sit near the drainages of Mill Creek and Indian Creek, offering points of interest for genealogists tracking family roots in the White River valley. The presence of the Landing Strip and Shell Knob Campground reflects the modern recreational character of the lake, while elevations like Pilot Knob and Big Joe Bald provide a reminder of the Ozark plateau's natural relief.
