Blackwater, MO

Travel Guide

Blackwater is a small town several miles off of the Interstate. Since we were early for our motel check-in a few miles further down the highway we did what we love to do which is to exit the Interstate at a random exit and explore.  The two lane road wandered through the countryside where we ran across several pastures with beautiful horses like this one.  While the Interstates are a great way to get from point A to point B quickly you can't beat the back roads if you want to see the many small towns with so many things to experience, explore and of course photograph!!!

No breakfast as stated, I room had trash still in it from the stay before us. When I told the lady up front she only said “yea we have been having a problem with that!” I am a paying customer and feel like that is not my problem when I have a dirty room.

We were in Blackwater before the season began, so just a few shops were open. We were in the town for the hotel and a relaxing evening, so the town was just right.
