My girlfriend and I were going to backpack camp at St Joe. We learned that the dispersed campsites had been dismantled. That's a real bummer.

Campsites were large and well set up. Some sites were not as level as others.

Very nice and well kept campground. Excellent place if you dirtbike, or ride atv’s with over 2000 acres of land to ride on.

Other than not having water at my current campsite, this place rocks. Campground number two has very large and relatively private sites. It feels like you’re definitely in the woods. Good Verizon service.

Beautiful woodland setting with large concrete pads and nice grave picnic spot with fire pit. There’s a couple nice lakes with big beaches great swimming for the kids and you can rent a canoe or a kayak to paddle around on the lake. If you have an off-road vehicle there’s many trails for you to expire. 

So, as one of Missouri’s atv parks, this can be a load one. But, you can camp at campground 2, and you’re dealing with a MUCH more classic camping scenario. The park is big enough you don’t hear the small engine vehicles over here.

The campground 2 sites are set up for horses, something I know almost nothing about, but they make the sites larger to accommodate equestrian needs and that’s nice. Hiking, MTB, and horse trails are separate from the atv trails. There’s even a nice 11 mile long paved trail that has some hills but will work for kids/strollers/etc.

There are a number of more interesting parks in the area for what I think of as a true camping experience, but this is a good one if you’re also on the pokemon plan (gotta camp ‘em all). If you like atv/utv/dirt bike stuff, man, campground one is for you, and it looks like a blast, read up on the lead mine tailing warnings.

This is my second time staying here. It is a nice campground,  clean and level sites. It is noisy because they have a lot of off road trails so there is a lot of 4 wheeler traffic. The problem is the state has changed up the way they are doing reservations. When I arrived there was someone in our spot. I had to drive back to the office, they spent a few minutes on the radio with the campground host to get it straight.  Then to turn around I had go out to the main road and drive 4 to 5 miles to find a turn around.  A pain.

Nice place to ride utv’s, 4 wheelers, even your jeeps. Holiday weekends are a bit crazy but overall it’s a pretty good place to ride. The rules are kinda strict. Things like, No bug lights, don’t even think about getting on there grass. Big NO NO! There’s more but that was the ones that got my attention. The picnic tables need sanded down or just placed. Can’t sit on them without getting splinters. We all got one. The restrooms are very clean (big plus) showers also.

Good place to ride your off road vehicles. Lots of trails and plenty of different types of trails to try out. Good clean campground for the hole family to enjoy. We found that there are some rules that didn’t make much sense. But overall they probably have there reasons. Anyway it’s kinda expensive but still well worth the money. “Yes” we will return.

Gravel spots with table and fire ring We fit two vehicles, tent, and a pop up in this area Tree covered Excellent in the fall! There is a lot of ATV activities, hiking, and nice shower houses

This is a great state park campground if you enjoy going off-roading as there are tons of areas to ride.

Terrible state park!!! We will never visit this park again! The rules are absolutely ridiculous; you can't do ANYTHING! The staff and rangers are extremely rude. I wouldn't waste your time coming to this park.

Great time with family

They were very picky about every single thing we set up. They required the tent had to be set up on the gravel but we had 2 large tents and they did not fit. Plus who wants to sleep on gravel. Had to buy wood but was only open a couple hours day. It was not a relaxing weekend.

We have a pull behind travel trailer and pick up truck. Site 107 is where we stayed. Pull thru site,asphalt paved with gravel set up area, burn pit and picnic table. Bathrooms and shower house where nice and very clean! We did not have a ORV but did have battery Burromax minbikes. 10 yr old son had an amazing time ridingtoafs with no issues. Pet friendly. Great sewer dump station. Overall it was a very clean and friendly camping experience we will definitely go back even without having a dirtbike or 4 wheeler. Lots of fun!

Really nice pull through sites and the kids loved the beach.

Nice park with a large camp sites with premiere off-road vehicle area. The park also features four lakes, two swimming beaches, equestrian trails, a hiking and bicycling trail and picnic sites, as well as two campgrounds capable of accommodating campers with ORV or horse trailers.

I only rated this a 3 because of location. Its located next to odd Monsanto property but great vineyards. I know. Weird. Anyway great multi use if you enjoy hiking, mountain biking ATV and horses. My husband and I went to check out cave vineyard which is exactly what it sounds like and is not to be missed. The facilities at this campground were top notch and the the sites were huge! Missouri always does a great job and its a great place to camp. A few minutes drive from the popular st. Genevieve.

This place is grand.... They have a huge open area for dirt bike's and four wheelers, just have to follow a few rules for safety. Nice little beach for you to walk on or even get your feet wet. We'll be back!!
