united states

Brumley is a tiny lakeside spot on the Lake of the Ozarks in Miller County, home to just 72 people. Drive Highway 52 west from Jefferson City (45 minutes) or take Highway 50 to Highway 5 south from Kansas City (2 hours). Most visitors are weekend lake-goers heading to private properties. The town sits on one of the lake's quietest coves, staying calm even when the main channel gets choppy with summer boat traffic.
