Indian Creek Campground

3 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Quiet on weekdays but noticeably busier on Saturdays, Indian Creek Campground sits near a lake in Anderson, Missouri, managed by the National Forest Service. The campground has multiple loops, including the Sentry loop and Eagle Point Fox loop, with full hookups available at select sites. Shower houses with hot water are cleaned regularly, though insects are common. Ticks can be heavy in summer, especially on trail sections with more elevation change than the flat terrain might suggest. A swim beach and boat ramp give campers direct water access, and camping near Pineville rounds out the options for those exploring the surrounding area. Reservations are available, and pets are welcome.

Campers regularly cited the variety of hookup options and well-maintained facilities with hot showers. Family activities and swimming beach add appeal, though some noted unfriendly staff and tick issues during hiking.

Just pretty close to perfect

‘‘This Campground has sections. The one group is the (Sentury) Indian, and the second loop is the Eagle Point Fox loop. We were at the Sentry loop. We liked site 71 in that loop. It offered the most space and was a full hook up. That is one of the best things about this campground. Several full hookups. Boat ramp was nice. Not great but ok for kayaking. Nice swim beach. Campground host we met was not very friendly or helpful.

Bring on the Deet!

Had an awesome hike, more incline/decline than I was expecting for the area! The caves were closed off due to walkway damage. Loved the lookout over the Missouri River! One less fun but not trip ruining detail, were the ticks. I went in August and they were pretty bad, tons on our legs and on my dog just from the hike. Next time I'll be prepared with deet!

Peaceful

There are several campgrounds around the lake. I always stay in the Night Hawk campground at Indian Creek. There are a variety of hookup options for tent or camper/RV guests. There are shower houses with hot water, I have seen the crews regularly cleaning the bathroom/shower houses however be aware that there are still going to be bugs. Spalding beach is nice on hot summer days for swimming or just lying out in the sun. On Saturday nights there is a couple from the Corps of Engineers that do free activities for kids and families that we really enjoy. There is also a great restaurant, The Rustic Oak nearby that we visit every time we go to the lake. If you are looking for a peaceful weekend getaway this is the place!
