  Meramec Valley Campground & RV Park

  Um, not very good.

  lots of disrepair, expensive for what you actually get, fast moving golf carts and side X sides, Kids driving golf carts, rude employees, filthy, gross bath/locker rooms in the Lodge, derelict campers onsite near the entrance, overflowing, smelly garbage dumpsters near the gate (Like 10 of them), terrible gravel roads with huge potholes and uneven RV sites. Our hookups worked but they were in need of updating, poor wifi signal, and just kind of needs to invest in its infrastructure and appearance. The miniature golf was tore up from neglect and although they have a teen center it was not open which left a lot of teenagers just slumming around out of boredom. Camp sites all had firepits that were decent and the fishing lake was beautiful. Could be a really nice park if the investment was made.

  Bennett Spring State Park Campground

  Peaceful win ter camping in campground 1

  This is the third time staying here. This time wife and I took our small camper just to get away for the weekend. We stayed in campground one because it is the only one open during the off season. You can make reservations online before going to ensure you have the spot you want. Campground one is in a flat spot down by the water and it is actually rather open and built for large rigs to fit in. If it was full I imagine it would be crowded and not much privacy but because we went in the winter there was only four other campsites taken. We were surprised when we found that there was Wi-Fi available for free at the campground. One negative is we only found one toilet for the entire campground. It wasn't a problem at this time because there was hardly anybody there, but I imagine if you wanted to use the toilet during the regular season you would find yourself with a line or going somewhere else.

  Cooks RV Motor Park - Springfield, MO

  Well maintained, friendly, affordable

  This was the last stop of a 5 week outing for me, and I booked a single night the day before arrival, looking for a full hookup place to dump my tanks and winterize on my way home to northern IL, where the temps were below freezing.  The staff was super friendly, and accommodating and when I arrived at around 7pm they were available to show me to my spot, and offered to help me get set up. Showers/ restrooms/ laundry are all in one building, and very clean and well kept. The park is adjacent to a large field where my dog was able to run to her heart's content, which was very welcome after being in other campgrounds where I had to keep her on a leash at all times. This was really just an overnight for me for convenience, but if I ever want to hang around Springfield MO for a few days, I'd definitely stay here again. 

  Spaces are packed gravel, pretty level. As others have said, it's convenient to I40, just a few minutes away, and quiet at night.

  Cooper Creek Resort

  Pretty cool place to stay

  We stayed here over Thanksgiving.  The campground was about 1/3 full .  The people working here are very nice! I think the campground would get a 5 if there were more pull-thru sites and the bath houses were a little more updated.  We will definitely stay here again when in Branson.

  Love's RV Hookup-Cameron MO 837

  Convenient

  Conveniently off I35. Perfect for a quick overnight stop on your journey! Located at Love's so most things you could need are available there, some amenities shown in the photos. Not the quietest place but super easy to grab some breakfast and get on the road in the morning!

  Stayed in my car with bed build here and felt safe staying here.

  Sugar Camp Lookout Tower Dispersed Area

  Beautiful and Peaceful

  Mark Twain National Forest is always a great getaway. This location is tucked away from the main road and is easy to get to. Could easily get 4 rigs + in the sight. Established fire ring (be mindful of burn bans). Close to Roaring River and Table Rock lake.

  Edge of the Woods RV Park and Campground

  Anna is a fantastic host

  We have stayed at this campground several times and Anna is there to answer all your questions and really take care of you. This is close to Roaring River and Table Rock Lake. You are also close to Cassville if you’ve forgotten anything or want to eat out!

  Alley Spring Campground — Ozark National Scenic Riverway

  Small sites with little privacy - campground fine, but not great

  I'd seen a lot of great reviews for this campground, so I had high expectations when we arrived for a night in early November. We reserved a spot in the 900 loop, just to be safe - a few of the camping loops allow reservations, and the rest are walk in. The loop was very open, spaces all fully visible to each other. The bathrooms were locked for the season after 10/15. 

  Since things were pretty empty, we moved to the 500 loop, which was more tree covered, near the river, and next to the shower house, which was the one park bath open for the winter. Bathrooms and showers were clean, though no camp host was present the night we stayed. 

  We were the only people on the 500 loop, so it was fine, but again - sites VERY close together. Some picnic tables were less than 20 feet apart. The 600 loop was the only heavily occupied loop when were there, filled with campers, presumably because of the electric access. 

  This is a NPS campground, so its amenities tend to be fewer than many MO state parks. I have other parks in this area that have more scenic and private tent camping. Just on the other side of the river is the Alley spring and mill, which are lovely - and ironically, some of the picnic sites are more spacious than these tent sites. I wish we could camp on that side!

  Brazil Creek Camping Area

  Great Little Rest Stop

  Very nice free camp ground that is suitable for any type of camping.

  The Ranger, who was very nice, had good service with AT&T, I had TMobile at my campsite with a booster.

  Miles and miles of trails for Mountain Biking, horse riding or just hiking, and you can ride your ATV on the roads but you need an orange triangle.

  Well worth the 20 to 30 minute trip off the highway.

  Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park

  Quiet during the off-season but expect it would be poplular in the summer!

  General: Very large state park with six separate loops/areas:

  • Loop 1: 10 Equestrian sites with water and electric (50 amp)

  • Loop 2: 20 FHU sites (50 amp)

  • Loop 3: 21 Sites with electric only (50 amp)

  • Loop 4: 14 sites with no hookups

  • Loop 5: 14 walk-in sites plus three special use sites

  • Six cabins 

  Site Quality: We stayed in Loop 3. Each site was very generous in size and reasonably distanced from each other. Most had foliage separating them. All sites looked to be level, and the camper pads were either all concrete or concrete/macadam and in very good shape. A large wooden picnic table, lantern/garbage hook, and fire pit complete each site. 

  Bath/Shower House: The one closest to our site (and I’m assuming others are the same) had three toilet/sink combos and one family restroom/shower. On the other side of the building were three shower rooms. While they were clean, the floors were concrete, and the walls cinderblock and there was a bit of a musty odor. 

  Activities/Amenities: We were there during the week in May and the visitor center and both stores (one in the campground and one by the Shut-Ins) were only open on the weekends. There was a laundry room with very reasonably priced machines ($1 each for the washer and dryer), a playground, and an amphitheater (which also was not in use when we were there). There is a gravel path that bisects each of the loops providing a nice way to walk/run throughout the campground. The signage in the park is good so even though no one was at the check-in station, it was easy to find our site and other facilities. The big draw for this park is the shut-ins (narrow constriction or gorge in a stream) where people can swim/slide from one to the other via small waterfalls into pools of water. We did see a few hearty souls in the water when we were there, and I can only imagine what it would be like on a hot summer weekend! 

  We had almost the entire Loop 3 to ourselves, so it was a very quiet stay for us (except for the cicadas)!.

  Bennett Spring State Park Campground

  Beautiful area with lots of camping spotsis

  This is a beautiful area with a lot of camping spots. Campground 1 is down by the water and really meant for the big rigs. Most of the other campgrounds (5 total) also have plenty of space to spread out. We saw plenty of 5th wheels up in the other campgrounds. Many had electric, though don't think many have water. Which is fine for a long weeked or something - just fill up the freshwater before heading out. 

  Of course if you like fishing this is a wonderful place. Not my thing, but I enjoyed people watching.

  Rudolf Bennitt Conservation Area

  Forest and Lake Dry camping

  Heavily forested with a lake. Trails and camping areas in woods are setup for equestrian with good trails for hikers, bikers and horses. Camping at lake is open gravel or grass. Nice fishing lake with docks, boat ramp and vault toilet and the only one provided. Parked lakeside. Quite night with one fishing boat late morning. Get a brochure with park map at entrance as roads pass through park and private property.

  Port Of Kimberling Marina & Resort

  Gorgeous Autumn Camping

  Stayed 3 nights. Weekend had a few family gatherings near us, but the weekdays we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Campground is well maintained with beautiful views of Table Rock Lake. We were in upper section (electric only) - the lower section next to the marina has full hookups. There are a few pull-through, but most sites are back-in and long enough for al most any rig.
