Crowder State Park is a public recreation area of surrounding 18acres Crowder Lake near Trenton in Grundy County, Missouri, USA. The state park and lake are named after Maj. General Enoch H. Crowder, who was born and raised near the park.
The Crowder State Park Vehicle Bridge, a small single-arch span of reinforced concrete with a facing of cut stone built about 1939, is the only surviving structure erected in the park by the Civilian Conservation Corps. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
The park offers picnicking, camping, fishing, swimming, canoeing, and trails for hiking, cycling and horseback riding.
