About Gascozark, Missouri: A Quirky Name on Route 66
Gascozark sits along the 1926-1977 alignment of Route 66 in Pulaski County, just off today's I-44. The name blends two local icons: the Gasconade River and the Ozark Hills, capturing the region's spirit in a single, playful word.
Though tiny and unincorporated, Gascozark once offered travelers the basics: a gas station, a small store, and a roadside café that became local lore. The Gascozark Café, in particular, was a mid-century favorite, remembered for home-cooked meals and friendly service that echoed the Mother Road's welcoming character.
Over the years, many of those businesses faded, leaving only traces of Gascozark's bustling roadside life. But the town's quirky name and its Route 66 connection keep it alive in memory, especially for history buffs tracing the highway's lesser-known stops.
Today, Gascozark sits quietly just beyond Waynesville, near landmarks like the historic Pulaski County Courthouse. Nearby Route 66 festivals still draw visitors there. And for anyone who loves the unexpected stories tucked along America's most famous highway, Gascozark remains a small but unforgettable stop, proof that even the tiniest dot on the map can leave a lasting impression.
