The Army Corps of Engineers envisions 3.8 million annual visitors within three years of Cannon Dam opening.

The plan features boating, fishing, picnicking, and camping facilities, two new bridges, a relocated SR 107 route, and a focus on attracting visitors from the St. Louis area within a 120 mile driving radius.
