Sycamore Access

Sycamore Access is a Missouri Department of Conservation public access point on Bryant Creek located 12 miles north of Gainesville off Highway 181, featuring a good-sized parking lot and sandy shoreline with shallow water near shore suitable for swimming and wading.

The access serves as a popular launching point for canoeists and kayakers floating the upper Bryant Creek, and visitors can access cold spring water flowing from the adjacent historic Hodgson Mill by swimming across the river.
