Bennett Spring State Park

Bennett Spring is the state’s third-largest spring. The park features a trout-stocked stream, lodging and camping facilities, a dining lodge, a nature center, hiking trails, a general store and two picnic shelters.

The park is 12 miles west of Lebanon. Fishing hours vary by month. Catch-and-keep trout season is March through October; catch-and-release fishing is allowed at specific times the rest of the year. Anglers must have a Missouri fishing license and a daily trout tag.

Pets are not allowed in buildings. The park office is closed on state holidays.
