Just over 30 minutes to Stark Caverns from our Airbnb. I suggest taking Hwy 5 to Camdenton and then Hwy 54 to the cavern. Using Hwy 54 to get to the other side of the lake only adds a few minutes to your travel time. We prefer that route over the winding roads that usually offer a shorter travel time. We feel our safety is well worth the extra time.
