Katy Roundhouse

Sites cluster tightly together at this RV park positioned 50 feet from the Katy Trail, though campers can spread out when occupancy remains light. All sites feature full hookups with pull-through access, and most receive shade from mature trees overhead. The proximity to Missouri's rail-trail makes this one of the few campgrounds where cyclists and hikers can roll directly from their site onto the converted railroad corridor.

The facilities stay well-maintained according to multiple visitors, though the property shows signs of needing minor upkeep in places. "This is a nice quiet little campground nestled in some farm fields," notes Luke L.. Wildlife includes deer, rabbits, and various bird species that frequent the surrounding agricultural landscape.

Access to area recreation extends beyond the immediate trail connection. The location provides a short drive to multiple state parks, conservation areas, and additional trail systems throughout central Missouri. For campers exploring the region further, sites near New Franklin offer additional overnight options.

The campground functions particularly well as a stopover for longer trips, with the full-hookup sites accommodating RVs of various sizes. Weekend periods see higher occupancy, but weekday visits typically allow campers to select sites with more spacing between neighbors.

Quiet, Full-Service, Katy Trail

Great campground for short visit along Katy Trail. All sites are full hookup & pull-through. Most sites shaded with trees. Sites are close together, but not a lot of campers, so we were all able to spread out. Did not use shower/WC facilities, but heard they are well kept. Overall the place could use a little TLC, but no complaints and location is ideal - 50 feet from Katy Trail. Short drive to lots of area state parks, trails, conservation areas, etc. Would definitely stay again.

Great place to rest

This is a nice quiet little campground nestled in some farm fields. The facilities are well maintained and it was very quiet when we were there. There are plenty of birds, rabbits, deer and other critters around, but really nothing else. We used this as a stop on a longer trip and it worked beautifully for that.

Great Access to the Katy Trail

Camping right alongside the Katy Trail is hard to find. This campground is one of two I know of. Full hookups at most sites and nearly all are tree covered. The sites were very close to each other but unless it's a busy weekend you can spread out easily.
