The park was planned to be put up for auction on courthouse steps March 3, 2020, but a "Motion to Cancel Foreclosure Sale" was filed in Newton County Circuit Court on February 27th. The Nances', who still held the mortgage on Dogpatch, postponed the auction for two months pending contract negotiations with a new buyer. On June 5, 2020, paperwork was filed at Newton County Circuit Court in Jasper indicating the park had been sold for $1.12 Million. The new owners were listed as Down By the Falls LLC, a corporation created in Delaware but with a Springfield, Missouri street address. Due to a confidentiality agreement the new owners plans have yet to be revealed. Trout Pond - Park visitors could rent fishing equipment and go fishing in the pond, which was deliberately overstocked so it would be easy to catch fish. Visitors could fish as much as they wanted and only had to pay for the fish they caught. The Dogpatch restaurant could prepare and serve guests' caught fish, or Dogpatch workers could clean and pack the fish in ice for guests to take home. The pond was part of a trout farm that was operated by Albert Raney and his family beginning in the 1930s. In 1966, Raney sold the Trout Pond to the developers of Dogpatch USA, but the Raneys continued to operate the pond. Dogpatch Caverns - A nearby show cave that was incorporated into the park. It had been a tourist attraction since the late 1920s, and in 1949 it was purchased by the Raney family and named Mystic Caverns. It was sold to the developers of Dogpatch USA in 1966, who renamed it "Dogpatch Caverns." The cave was renovated and many safety issues were addressed. During renovations, a second cave was discovered next door; it was named "Old Man Moses Cave" after a "Li'l Abner" cartoon character, and barricaded to preserve its pristine condition. According to some sources, "Old Man Moses Cave" was open to visitors in the 1969 season. Both caves were sold in 1981. "Dogpatch Caverns" was renamed "Mystic Caverns" once more, "Old Man Moses Cave" was renamed "Crystal Dome," and, according to the current owners of the caves, it was at this time that "Old Man Moses Cave" was finally opened for tours. Peter Bella Grist Mill - This was a historic mill originally built on the property in 1834. It was restored during the initial construction of Dogpatch in 1968. It fell into disrepair after the park's closure.
