Viola is an unincorporated community on Route 39 on the border between Barry and Stone counties in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] Viola is also situated adjacent to Table Rock Lake between the Kings River arm to the west and the main White River portion of the lake to the north.[2]

The Stone County portion of Viola is part of the Branson, Missouri Micropolitan Statistical Area.

A post office was established on the Barry County side at Viola in 1893, and remained in operation until 1974.[3] The community was named after an unidentified local girl.[4]
