Where is Ozark filmed?

The narrative may be dark, but the backdrop for this show is beautiful.

The story tells the tale of Marty, who is on the move with his family after a money-laundering scheme goes wrong.

This forces him to pay off a substantial debt to a Mexican drug lord in order to keep his family safe.

At the very beginning of season one Marty relocates his family to Osage Beach, Missouri on Lake of the Ozarks.

While the show uses some shots of the actual lake, the vast majority of Ozark is filmed in Atlanta.

Ozark's location was inspired by Missouri's Alhonna Resort.
