Has anyone spent time at LOTO? We're considering going there at the end of August, but don't know about the area very much. The main thing that we are worried about is that people say not to go there in mosquito season, but then they never say when that is. Also, what is really bad for some is fine for others.

Our timeshare club has a nice resort there and my brother and his daughter are big on fishing. My nephew is stationed at Fort Leonard Wood as well, so that's a plus (if he can get leave - his unit is designated part of the ready response force). Overall, we're looking at 6 adults and probably 2 college students.

We are looking at August as my sister in law is a school teacher and can't really vacation when school is in session. I've heard great things about the local attractions (really, a castle?) and restaurants, so am just looking at timing. Zero chance of making a herf in the area, most likely.

Commentary?
