About this swimming hole

Dabbs Greer Town Hole sits right in the middle of Anderson, across from the post office, a Norman Rockwell-style town swimming hole on the creek. A grassy slope leads down to the water, with picnic tables and grills for an old-fashioned summer afternoon. It is small, friendly, and unmistakably small-town Missouri.
