Canton City River Park

The website clearly states there are both toilets or showers. Was a little disappointed bc the Dyrt app has it wrong. I added the info hopefully they change it. The river front was a great view!

The price has jumped from 20 dollars a night to 30. We did not know this until we arrived. Not a big deal but no one said anything about that when we called for reservations. Full hook ups are nice and most of the spot could hold rigs up to at least 40 foot as we are 39 and fit with not problems. The only thing we noticed was for a dead end loop campground there is a bunch of traffic. I think about everyone that lives in this tiny town must make a lap around the campground on their way home. About every 7-10 mins a vehicle drives by. All spots are about 50 feet from the water and about 100 feet from the railroad tracks. Overall we would stay here again and the view of the river is very nice.

Beautiful atmosphere, pond , playground is well kept

I tried to camp here, but it was closed temporarily due to high water on the Mississippi River. In fact, part of the the campground road was under water. However, I was able to check it out and talk with a city worker who was mowing the empty campground. This is a primarily RV campground next to the Mighty Mississippi, with all spots having nice gravel parking pads, hookups, and great views of the river. The worker told me that tents are welcome, but not what they usually have show up. There is no dump station. Bathrooms were porta-potties (it wasn’t clear if this was the permanent bathroom situation because of the river flood potential or temporary), and there were no showers. There was a nice playground in the middle of the campground. Just up the road a short walk is the lock and dam that you can visit with interpretive signs and nice benches to sit on while you watch the barges go through the locks.
