Wallace State Park Campground

We switched from site 46 to site 53 as it was far more level and fairly private since it abutted woods. Campground host was really friendly in greeting us and accommodating our request to change sites. Sparkling clean showers and lovely grounds.

We came here fully expecting rain and we got it. Only problem was we planned to tie up some tarps to sit under but we didn't know that it was against the rules to tie to the trees at these sites. luckily we made it work tieing to the roof of the table and a stump. As far as the camp ground its self, rules aside, it is amazing. All the tent sites are separated by trees and bushes so you get plenty of room to your self but they are close enough you can still connect with other groups if you want. Another great part about it is that there are walking paths through the woods from each site that meet up at a central restroom. The main bathrooms and showers are over by the office and are super nice but it is good that there are a couple stalls close for the middle of the night situations. Tons of walking trails are around and a decent playground for the kids as well. Overall loved this place.

Small park with some very private sites and some very exposed sites. Nice showers and dump station.

We got in late, so the automatic gates were closed, but we got lucky and someone else came out so we were able to get to our campsite. It was very quiet during the night and we woke up to a chorus of birds. The bathrooms are pristine- nicer than some restaurants or hotels I’ve been to. We stayed in campsite 2 and took the trail down to the lake. It was very small, but the water was clear and we saw no trash! We could see the fish in the water! Overall a very lovely stay- we will be back!!

Clean campground clean bathrooms . Power hookup no water or sewer at site but both are available in the campground. $21 a night for seniors

Very clean showers.

We really enjoyed Wallace State Park. Very clean and well kept with friendly hosts. We stayed in campground 4. It is fairly ope with the exception of 78 - 80 which are nestled in the woods at the end. Campground 1 had lot of wooded spots as well.

The birds, the deer, and yes even the raccoons. They all made it enjoyable. Hiking trails are very nice. Camp hosts were friendly and helpful.

Great MO state park, close to the city with easy access to 35 N. Trails, lakes, camping, great spot! If you don’t want/need electric, try campground 1, the spots are tucked into the trees.

Great state park and campground. Nice trails. Great shower house.

Lots of great spots to camp that have shade. Looks like the areas are in good shape and cleaned up after ever camper. The lake is more like a big pond. Was not overly impressed. However, lots of trails and some beautiful area to explore. We will be going back.

Showed up and went to our site it was a tent only spot even though it said 20ft double pad.

Nicely kept state park with recently upgraded restroom/shower facilities. Small lake = no big boats & easy fishing access👍🏻. Love the many hiking trails. Close to restocking locations. My destination multiple times/year with grandkids

Awesome views, great location, solid trails

I live near this park so it's a go to spot for hiking and foraging, one review on here says there's no place for biking but bikes are allowed on the trails they just aren't paved.

There's a small lake with a "beach" that has catfish, bluegill and black crappie. Great place for small children the fish are very active in the summer.

The ticks are pretty thick during the summer on the trails. And if you want solitude this is not the place but if you are camping with children or inexperienced campers its a great park. All the pictures I have from this park are family portraits

Its a great place for pictures a lot of locals go there for family photos and senior pictures.

Exceptional primitive camping, private spaces with plenty of shade. Clean toilets and welcoming full time staff. Small swimming lake a short walk away and nice treks. RV area is a bit more open. Artisan brewery in nearby Cameron and highly recommended deli in nearby Hamilton. Always spaces available during the week.

Quaint campground an hour outside of Kansas City. Beautiful fall foliage. The last weekend in October they have a lot of great activities for kids. Pumpkin Carving games. There’s a campsite decorating contest. Kids can go trick or treating at the campsites that choose to participate. Showers are immaculate. Vault toilets are extremely well maintained. Well marked trails and friendly people all around.

What a great park! Miles of hiking trail, good sites, well maintained, clean shower house, and great multiple playgrounds.

This was an excellent State Park. Very well groomed. Shower house was amazingly clean and great water pressure. I was only here overnight. However, I felt very welcome and comfortable! The host checking me in offered me a different spot which was more level. Made it a lot easier to get set!

It was nice, they have 3 camprounds. 1 is basic, they have plenty of room for tents and camping and large space between each camp site. They have walk in camp sites also. Campground 3 is the electrics and made for the campers.

We camped in one of the walk-in tent sites and loved it! Plenty of space between us and neighbors, nice and quiet. Plenty of shade, nice hiking trails, and the shower house / amenities were nice.

Beautiful, tons of trees, shaded , padded sites, small lake with a swimming beach.

This camp ground is alright, not much to do. It’s a walk or a right to the pond from any camp spot. There really isn’t a good place to ride bike, just walking trails.

This park was a quiet, mother nature hiking park. We hardly even new we had neighbors. The check station personnel were extremely helpful and the bathrooms were clean. My favorite was that they had a recycling station.

This is our go to campground when we just want to get away for the weekend. The campsites are shaded and pretty secluded.

The park is nice, but very simple. There is a small (6 acre lake) that allows for fishing, swimming, kayaking/canoeing/paddleboarding, as well as several hiking trails. There are 4 different camping loops in the park. Overall the park was very clean, including the showerhouse and restrooms. We did have noise neighbors show up the second night of our stay, but our first night was very quiet.

This campground is a pretty standard state park campground. All of the usual amenities; showers, laundry and electric sites if you want them.

The tent sites all consist of a fire grate with a swing away grill, paved parking spot and a predetermined tent spot covered in mulch.

The majority of the sites are next door to each other and right of the road. However, there are 4 walk in sites that get you away from the majority of the campground noise.

The main issues are the usual; noisy neighbors, extremely noisy and inconsiderate rv campers and an Interstate less than a mile away.

If you're looking for solitude, this does not provide it, but if you just want to sleep in a tent and have a campfire this will probably be fine for you.

Wallace SP locacated just off I35 south of Cameron. The campground is split into 3 different areas. The basic sites feature a level framed pad that could accomadate a large tent. The sites are heavily wooded and provide a perfect spot to hang your hammock. The shower house is new and they have a updated playground for the kids. The trails around Wallace are fantastic. From a casual stroll around the lake to a more vigorous hike up the hill this park provides it all. Talking to the ranger this park fills up quickly on the weekends so plan accordingly.

I love how many of the basic sites are secluded or at least mostly separate from other sites. Many have treeline surrounding so your site is closed off from others, ensuring some privacy. Also love the lake and nature trails
