Now available at no charge in certain areas of Bennett Spring, Roaring River, Montauk, Big Lake and Sam A. Baker state parks.

Visitors to five of Missouri's state parks can now stay connected to the world while visiting these parks, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources announced today. Wireless Internet (Wi-Fi) connections are now available at no charge in certain areas of Bennett Spring, Roaring River, Montauk, Big Lake and Sam A. Baker state parks.

At Bennett Spring State Park near Lebanon, visitors can get Wi-Fi access at the dining lodge during regular operating hours. Sam A. Baker State Park near Patterson offers Wi-Fi in the dining lodge, store and cabins. At Montauk State Park near Salem, it is available in the Dorman L. Steelman Lodge, which houses the store and restaurant. At Roaring River State Park near Cassville, it is available at the Emory Melton Inn and Conference Center. Big Lake State Park near Craig offers access at the park store, including the store's café and recreation center. At all five parks, guests must provide their own computers.

The department is adding Wi-Fi to enhance customer service and to meet the requests of state park users to stay connected. Wi-Fi availability will be added to additional state parks in the future. This free service is popular with regular visitors as well as those coming to the parks for meetings or conferences.
