"This site is the largest most spacious COE Site on Beaver Lake. Very large camp sites with easy access to the water.. 2 launch ramps for boats, marina on site. "
"There was a trail going to Beaver Lake from our campsite which made for a grear personal fishing spot. The restrooms and showers were conveniently situated but could have been cleaner."
"Located in South Missouri it is an easy day trip into Branson Missouri or Eureka Springs Arkansas. Very well located and very well run by the state."

"On one trip I check out Lake Leatherwood City Park, a campground only about 10 minutes outside of the historic downtown area. This historic lake has both tent camping and cabin options."

"One of the better sites on Beaver Lake with a small number of sites, the access to the water is easy and the sites are fair sized."
"They are on the banks of Beaver Lake and are beautiful. The only downside is both campgrounds are built on the slopes of a hill."
TravelerRarely used site ! Nice woods . Might want to bring a weed wacker .lol
ScoutMy wife and I camped here and road our dirt bikes out the next morning. You can drive right up to your campsite, this is on private property. There are several tent spots and also 3 cabins, small medium and large. There is a big hangout spot with a big fire place and chairs already set up, it also has 2 big overhead lights so you’re not completely in the dark. They also have a restroom available for anyone with showers! Everything was very neat inside and out! The owners of the place are absolutely great!! The Buckhorn trails run right through there property. I HIGHLY SUGGEST THIS CAMPSITE!!!
GuideNo toilets/showers/dumpsters/ trash cans.
Various camp sites along a dirt road, that my AWD Equinox made it fine. Just go slow, as there are some ruts from previous rains.
There are various outfitters along the way to the dirt road. So you don’t have to go too far if you forgot something.
The camp I’m at has the land cleared fairly well of grasses and such.
The others further down the road are for one vehicle type camps with longer grass.
There are walking trails, with Spy Rock a short distance away.
TravelerBeautiful place, a few other campers. Great for overnight stay. Vault toilet were out of order. We made do.
ScoutIf you are looking for a nice place on the Illinois River to camp, float the river, set shuttle or just hang out, this is a very nice place. You will enjoy the privacy compared to other campgrounds in the area that have large crowds. Book early as it fill up fast and they do not offer more than one or two spaces per day. The campsites are large and open with lots of shade trees and could easily accommodate much larger groups if needed . Be careful when camping, as it is near the river and if the water gets high, you will need to move up to the higher bank.
ScoutSmall campground but worked great for us they have a nice swimming pool, although we didn’t use them the showers and laundry looked nice. It’s hilly (hey this is the Ozarks) but the sites themselves are pretty level most RV’s are leveled somewhat. You can walk to some attractions. One thing——sightseeing helicopters arrival path is right over the campground so that’s only significant noise.
GuideSite 46- Love love love this place! Camp host are great, bathrooms/ Showers are very clean.
LegendWe spent a weekend in early May in campground 1 backing right up to one of the creeks. The sound of running water alone would have me back. Electric only and not very level site but loved it! Lots to do and see at the hatchery and play in the river. Hikes were overgrown but beautiful. Highly recommend!
TravelerWe were in Bentonville, Arkansas and decided to take a gamble on this and it was about 40 minute drive when we got there. There was plenty of space for the dog to roam without getting into high grass where ticks would be festering and it was a sweet little private getaway for a night before driving on. We highly recommend. Starlink didn't work but Verizon did for phone calls only.
