Sketchy Neighborhood but nice RV park

On the way in the neighborhood itself did not seem very likely to hold an RV park this close to urban areas. But the place is nice, has Laundry, Showers etc. No campfire pit, and our spot was a tight fit, but seems nice.

Very suburban

Just 30 minutes to downtown Kansas City and maybe 15 minutes to arrowhead stadium, this campground is ideal for being close to everything that Kansas City offers. Full hook ups, concrete pads, showers and laundry.

Great location

Great little spot right in downtown Indep. Only drawback is all the sirens, all night and day. And the manager of the campground is fairly rude. He has asked me no less than three times what I was doing here. Been here over a month and he still stops me every chance he can to ask why I’m here…other than those two things it’s a great little place!

Its not pretty but its close and the staff are great!

We were going to local fair,  Santa Caligon. It was close and have a great view of this crazy church. It is close to downtown Independence, for local shopping and food. We already booked out place for next years event. It has full hookups and that's about it.  there is a very clean shower house and bathroom.

Great campground, centrally located

First off, the water in Independence MO top 10 in the world over time, and in #3 currently.

Great friendly staff. Level concrete sites. We’re in #22 - with wifi access point right here. 66m down, 24m up. It was so good (and the park is full) I did not bother testing my mobile plans

Nice and quiet ( on big church campus) - occasional train but not often enough to be a nuisance.

Will definitely return if on my route

High on a Hill

Many back in sites with 4 pull through sites. We stayed in pull through site #3. Community fire ring! Lots to view! Only issue was trains blowing their horns during the night.

Easy Access to City

This isn't our typical "go to" type campground; we stopped here because we were having some trouble with our truck and needed to have it looked over before heading out further west. The RV park is really close to downtown Independence, Missouri and has everything we needed for the night. It's within walking distance of everything in town, has full hook-ups, wifi, bathrooms, and a laundry facility.

It is what you might expect for an RV park so close to downtown, a little lacking in outdoor aesthetics. But, the bathrooms were clean, the showers very hot, and the laundry room was tidy! Also, the manager was super nice and accommodating.

Independence has some cool stuff to check out and has a very midwestern, small-town feel to it, even though it is basically a suburb of the greater Kansas City area. There is a lot of charm and some interesting architecture in the immediate area. The Truman Library, the Community of Christ Church, the downtown theater and court house are all interesting and worth a look. We had some time to kill and made the rounds to these various places. If the weather would have been warmer, it would have been a very bikeable area, too.
