TravelerIt’s fun to see the animals. I was happy they have an outdoor shower because I needed it when I got here. I’d say the only down side is the animals roam so there is a lot of poop. Wouldn’t want to wander at night.
TravelerThe campsite is nice plenty of spaces spaced out nicely, but there’s absolutely no signage. took us forever to decide where we could park and what to do. tiny little sign on the Rangers house. Led us to a website and then charged us $50. Not what we were expecting. Plan ahead on this one.
ScoutThis is one of the worst state parks I’ve ever visited. The sites are small no water or electricity. Takes 15 minutes from civilization to get there.
TravelerTrails in the area re nice but facilities for this many sites are limited. Sites are close to each other.
TravelerStayed overnight, got a great site next to the pond, escorted to site by friendly staff…..
ScoutTraveling for the first time with our two Bangal cats. Easy to get to from stl area. Clean bathrooms.
ScoutMost of the campers here live here long term. It’s more of a trailer park than a camping spot. They have a pool but most people probably wouldn’t use it. The restrooms and showers or shower, only one for the entire grounds, are 2 stars. If you needed an emergency stop over it would work.
TravelerThis campground is very well taken care of. The kids had plenty of things to do to stay busy and entertained outside.
ScoutSecluded state park but a little hard to get to when pulling a 34 foot fifth wheel. Lots of ups and downs on the road. Love the fact that you are absolutely in the hills of Troy MO with nothing else around you. We stayed during the week the end of August and there were hardly anyone else here. Very quiet. No road noise whatsoever. You felt very much in the woods.

Kayaking and water recreation: St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park provides water-based activities for cabin campers looking to explore. "They rent out paddleboats, bikes and peddle cars/buggies as well. We rented a peddle buggy. Those are a lot harder to get moving then they look. Awesome workout for the whole family!" Boat rentals typically cost $10-15 per hour.
Hiking trails and wildlife observation: The wooded areas around cabin sites offer opportunities for nature viewing. Cuivre River State Park Campground features "an awesome trail system around the lake, and it looks like you can rent canoes/kayaks in the summer." Trail difficulty varies from beginner-friendly 1-mile loops to more challenging 5+ mile routes with elevation changes.
Local winery visits: The St. Charles area features multiple wineries within 15-20 minutes of cabin sites. "This Campground places you in the heart of Missouri Wine Country and there's a perfect base for visiting the wineries and restaurants along highway 94," notes a reviewer about St. Charles County Klondike Park.
Proximity to St. Louis attractions: Cabin campers appreciate how certain locations provide easy access to city amenities while still offering natural surroundings. "Convenient location for a city visit. It's close to interstates and it's a short drive across the river to Missouri attractions," writes one reviewer about Cahokia RV Parque.
Clean facilities: Guests consistently mention well-maintained bathrooms and shower buildings. "The grounds, pool, laundry, and bathrooms were all in excellent repair and clean. The park was quiet, but very family friendly," notes a visitor to Cahokia RV Parque.
Fishing opportunities: Several cabin locations feature stocked fishing ponds or lakes. "The campground has a nice trail system around the lake... and it looks like you can rent canoes/kayaks in the summer (was not open in the winter)," writes a camper about Cuivre River State Park Campground.
Seasonal limitations: Many facilities adjust operating hours or close completely during winter months. "St. Louis NE-Granite City KOA maintains cabin rentals with varying amenity levels, operating from March through November," while other parks may have limited winter services.
Packing essentials: Most cabins require specific supplies beyond what travelers might expect. "Every site has a fire pit with adjustable grill, picnic tables, ours had a concrete slab for gatherings," reports a visitor to Beaver Dam State Park Campground.
Noise considerations: Several cabin camping locations experience noise from surrounding areas. "There is road noise, quite a bit. But large trash bins and a great bbq restaurant on the grounds!" mentions one Cahokia RV Parque visitor. Another notes: "Tight spots and dirty looks. Regulars welcome, everyone else stay home," regarding some campground atmospheres.
Entertainment options: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Resort At Six Flags specializes in family-oriented cabin camping. "We spent a weekend here because we wanted to be close to six flags. I swear this place was more fun!!! There's swimming, games, lots of activities and you can go from rustic rent a tent to a really nice cabin with lots amenities!!"
Safety considerations: Some cabin locations have specific layouts that parents should note. "The bathrooms were clean and modern. The site I was in had full hook ups. The water pressure was so strong that I could barely open the water pump!" reports a visitor regarding infrastructure quality.
Playground access: Multiple cabin camping options feature dedicated children's areas. "The park has planted some trees, but they are really just saplings, so there is no shade yet. There is a nice bathhouse with free showers for the campers and pay laundry," notes a visitor to St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park.
Site selection strategy: Pin Oak RV Park offers insights for those choosing cabin accommodations. "Sites at the back of the property are large. Sites in the middle seemed more crowded." Cabin visitors can apply similar principles when selecting locations.
Maintenance expectations: Older facilities require different expectations. "This is an older RV park and campground, and the age shows. We spent several nights here due to engine problems with our tow vehicle. The sites are level, and there is plenty of shade. (One advantage of being an older park.)"
Reservation timing: Peak periods require advance planning. "We chose Cahokia RV Park because of its close proximity to St. Louis Missouri. We stayed in a gravel site with a concrete pad, fire pit, picnic table and full-hook ups. The spaces are tighter, but that was expected being closer to a city."
