Boat docks in Sunrise Beach and Laurie

Dock help along the Route 5 side of the lake, from Sunrise Beach up toward Laurie and Gravois Mills.

Sunrise Beach is a small village of 431 people (2020 census), mostly in Camden County with a sliver in Morgan County. It occupies a neck of land bordered by the lake, so its limits touch the shoreline in several places, and Missouri Route 5 runs its full length. About 3 miles northwest along Route 5, Laurie had 939 residents in 2020 and lies mostly in Morgan County, roughly 2 miles north of the lake.

Weekend homes and seasonal docks

Many docks along this side of the lake belong to owners who aren't there year-round. Ameren points out that the lake is usually at its lowest in winter to early spring and suggests absentee owners have someone check their dock during that time. A builder can set cable tension and walkway length for the low season and look for problems before summer.

What people here ask for

  • Spring dock checkups and cable adjustments
  • Re-foaming and new decking on aging docks
  • PWC ports and lifts for family boats
  • Dock moves for new owners rearranging a shoreline

Sunrise Beach transfer inspections

The Sunrise Beach area is one of the places where a dock electrical inspection, approved within the prior 12 months, has to accompany the Ameren permit transfer when the property sells. Plan for that when buying or selling.
