Koshkonong is a city in Oregon County, Missouri, United States. The population was 212 at the 2010 census.Koshkonong was named for its numerous sinkhole ponds and small lakes that reminded the construction supervisor of its original railroad's favorite duck hunting spot in Wisconsin, Lake Koshkonong, which was named after wild rice by Native Americans. The sinkholes are part of a karst system and serve as recharge for Mammoth Spring, 10 miles south in Mammoth Spring, Arkansas.Koshkonong was once part of southern Missouri's fruitbelt that sprung up along the railroads in the area. Due to thousands of acres of large peach orchards and numerous packing plants, Koshkonong once billed itself as the "Peach Capitol of the World".
