Land Clearing, Forestry Mulching & Driveways in Eagle Rock, MO
Eagle Rock is a small Barry County community on Missouri Route 86 near the west end of Table Rock Lake, with 193 residents in the 2020 Census. It has had a post office since 1886 and takes its name from a nearby rock formation. It sits in the Cassville school district, has a campground and public marina close by, and the Eagle Rock Retreat Center, home of the Royal Rangers National Training Center, lies about 4 miles southwest. From our Berryville base it's about 24 miles: north on Highway 21, then Highway 221 to the state line and Missouri 86 into town, about 45 minutes. For land clearing in Eagle Rock, MO, that's a short trip, and most of the land here is wooded acreage and lake-area lots.
What's different about working in Eagle Rock
Lake land and back-country land. Near the water, lots slope toward coves of Table Rock Lake, and the shoreline strip is Corps of Engineers land. Away from the lake, the ground turns into wooded ridges and hollows with long drives off Route 86 and county roads.
Corps shoreline rules. The Corps of Engineers built Table Rock Lake and still manages the strip of land along most of its shore. Cutting brush, mowing, taking down a dead tree, or opening a path to the water on that strip takes the Corps' written OK first, and no vehicles are permitted on it. Our work ends at your survey line.
Cherty and wet in spots. Barry County's USDA survey is led by Scholten soils, which are cherty with a dense fragipan that holds water in spring, followed by Clarksville and Hailey soils full of chert. Expect rock in every cut, and expect some flats to stay soggy long after a rain.
Missouri and county rules. Barry County's Planning Office in Cassville issues zoning permits for new homes and larger outbuildings and soil erosion permits for some projects. Construction disturbing an acre or more also needs a Missouri DNR land disturbance permit.

Eagle Rock FAQ
How far are you from Eagle Rock?
About 24 miles from Berryville, roughly 45 minutes by Highway 21, Highway 221, and Missouri 86.
Can you clear my lot down to the lake?
Up to your property line. Corps of Engineers land below it needs Corps approval for vegetation work, and vehicles aren't allowed there.
Can you open a homesite and build the drive in one job?
Yes. Clearing, pad grading, drainage, and a gravel drive can be one coordinated project.
Why does part of my land stay wet?
Fragipan soils like Scholten hold water near the surface in wet months. Swales, regrading, or a French drain can move it.
Do you also work in Golden and the rest of southeast Barry County?
Yes. Golden is about 17 miles from Berryville, a mile north of Missouri 86 on Highway J, and Shell Knob is about 21. Roaring River State Park and Cassville are farther north.
