Spring Bluff is an unincorporated community in southwest Franklin County, Missouri, United States.
The community sits on a ridge at the intersection of Missouri routes 185 and AC approximately seven miles northwest of Sullivan. An incised meander of the Bourbeuse River lies one mile northwest of the community.[1]
A post office called Springbluff was established in 1872, and remained in operation until 1933.[2] The community most likely was so named on account of its lofty elevation above a spring.[3]
