    Green Acres at Red Brick Farmhouse

    Awesome, Picturesque Camp Site

    Small,secluded camp sites on picturesque lawn surrounding 3story red brick farmhouse near Higginsville, MO. Two tent sites. Two or three small RV sites and one parked RV trailer available as a nightly rental. Bathroom with shower available. Water and electric available. Friendly and helpful hosts reside in the big house. There are places to eat nearby. Fire pit with comfortable chairs in corner of yard. Very pleasant stay. Relaxing for the soul.

    Kansas City East-Oak Grove KOA

    Crammed in a tent camping field...

    Let's Share COVID and a campfire song. When we booked a tent site in the KOA we didn't expect much but assumed it would work for the night while driving across the USA.  Upon arrival we were a little put off by being stuck with several other tents in a field and noticed we were expected to share our fire ring with the tent next door... this was not ok with us and we left promptly and snagged a nice spot in the nearby Blue Springs Recreation Area. Traveling during summer 2020 has been interesting and to expect strangers to share a fire ring and be crammed very close during a pandemic is not only careless but not fun. UGH

    Watkins Mill State Park Campground

    Peaceful

    We stayed Sunday-Wednesday and it was very peaceful. Sites are not right on top of each other and it looks like they all have a fire pit and picnic table. There are only a handful of paved spots and you will need leveling blocks on the gravel. Showers and bathrooms are clean and the hosts are very nice. New asphalt roads throughout the park; nice for walking, biking, etc. Be sure to get biscuits & gravy at “The General Store” just down the road from the park entrance.

    Worlds of Fun Village

    Novel Campground in Kansas City

    This was an interesting stay at the Worlds of Fun campground. Located on the property there are RV sites and rental cabins. All RV sites were concrete with 50/30/20 amp, water and sewer. Back-in sites on rows 1 and 3 and pull through sites on row 2.

    The theme park offered discounted tickets when staying at the campground and parking for the parks was included. Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun are internally connected, making it easy to walk between the two.

    There is a pool, hot tub, laundry and clean bathrooms with showers. The campground did attempt to improve privacy with strategically placed trees and shrubs.

    Row 1 (sites 1-20) is along a busy highway with semi truck noise 24 hours a day. I recommend either paying more for the pull-through (further from the road) or the back in sites 69-82 in row 3.

    Security was disappointing, as there was no gate to the campground, nor a gate around it. So our campsite (site 2) that backed up to the road was 10 feet off the public sidewalk. Reviews of this campsite on other websites mentioned some petty theft, so we kept our outdoor compartments locked (nothing was stolen).

    Basswood Country RV Resort

    A great place to take the kids/grandkids

    We have been camping at Basswood for several years, first with our children and now with our grandchildren. Basswood provides amenities that are great for entertaining children, includinga swimming pool and splash park, two playgrounds, a basketball goal, and fishing. Every weekend there are organized activities such as arts and crafts, fishing contests, duck races and frozen t-shirt contests in the pool, and a Saturday evening outdoor movie. There is a great little store with alcohol for the adults; ice cream treats, which we enjoy after a swim; and nearly any key item you might have forgotten to pack. Most roads throughout the campground are paved, and the campground is generally well-maintained. We appreciate the full-service RV spots, but there are very nice bathroom facilities, including showers, in two locations in the park.

    Lake Paradise Resort

    A gem being polished!

    We had a fun and relaxing time and loved the woodsy feel to it. We stayed here for a weekend in July 2020 and had a great time!  It is under new ownership and they are working to remodel and renovate all areas. I got to meet one of the owners and one of the owner's kids who works there and they were very nice and very helpful.  In fact, all staff I had contact with were! We had a nice full hookup RV site with a very woodsy feel.  Well shaded, grass and trees, view of water and nice space around us. Gravel site with picnic table and fire ring.  The pool is renovated and very nice. It is very large, zero entry, up to mostly around 5 ft deep with a small area that was 9ft; there is a children's area with a sprinkler. Roads throughout campground are gravel, not paved, if that makes a difference with kids bringing scooters or bikes.  We drove around to see the rest of the campground and saw lots of sites that I'd like to camp in when we come back. The cabins look nice, too. Waved at people sitting in front of them, but did not see inside them.  I'm looking forward to go here again and excited to see the updates they make over the next year!

    Note: Included in your camp fee you get 2 free daily passes per night of camping to the pool and a discounted rate for any other swimmers; so for our family with 4 we had the free passes go to the parents and paid $3 each for the kids to swim & we did this two days.  As long as you have the wrist band on you can come and go all day to the pool.

    Cons: quite a bit of poison oak around the fish cleaning area, shade at the pool is at a minimum, my phone (AT&T) could not get service there.

    Linn County Park

    Nice views!

    Located in east central Kansas on 2600 acre Lake LaCygne (cooling reservoir for KCPL coal-fired power plant). No swimming or skiing allowed, only fishing boats. We stayed on site 112 in View Point Loop next to some permanent residents. There’s no stay limit here so some sites are very messy. Paved roads with gravel sites having W/E, mostly 30A but a few 50A like ours. Check in at the Marina to see which ones are available at this all first come first serve cg. They even have a few FHU sites but I imagine they are all taken by the residents. Nice dump station located in the back of the park along with a few rustic cabins. We enjoyed a waterfront site but there were many 30A sites available in a more wooded setting in several different loops. There are about 113 sites here.

    Basswood Country RV Resort

    Tidy and well run park

    This park is convient to I-29 but far enough off the highway to be quiet and peaceful. Tent sites, full hookups as well as rooms and cabins are available. As a point of interest, this used to be a favorite fishing spot of President Harry S. Truman, check out the Mother in Law cabin—built at his request.

    Knob Noster State Park Campground

    Great relaxing campground with many activities

    Beautiful secluded campsite - amenities were clean. Kayak rentals were available for Lake Buteo - kayakers were out on the lake, and the lake has a trail all around it. Nice trail. The other lake, Clearfork Lake, was great for fishing for us! We did have a problem with Raccoons, but with our site being on the very edge of the sites I think that may be inevitable.


Guide to Blue Springs

Cabin rentals near Blue Springs, Missouri offer overnight accommodations within 30 miles of the city. Located in western Missouri at around 1,000 feet elevation, this region experiences four distinct seasons with summer temperatures often exceeding 90°F. Winter cabin stays require additional preparation as temperatures frequently drop below freezing from December through February.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: At Lake Paradise Resort, visitors can fish in the on-site lakes. "We camped here in September 2020. There are nice spots right by the lakes with big trees for shade. Kids found tons of frogs and snails to play with," notes one visitor who enjoyed the natural surroundings.

Historical exploration: The area features several historic sites worth visiting. Near Watkins Mill State Park Campground, you can tour preserved buildings. "If you like history, take a tour of the woolen mill part. Very cool," writes one camper who appreciated the educational value.

Biking trails: Paved paths make this area excellent for cycling. "There are 2 shower houses, 1 new one towards the front and one in the farthest loop. The trail wraps the lake and connects to the edge of the campground," explains a visitor at Watkins Mill State Park who found the trails accessible directly from the camping area.

What campers like

Privacy options: Despite being near urban areas, some cabins offer secluded settings. At Milo Farm Sacred Land Retreat, guests appreciate the natural surroundings. "No hay palabras para describir esto tan increíble," wrote one enthusiastic visitor, indicating the experience was beyond words.

Swimming facilities: Many cabin locations feature pools for hot summer days. "The pool is renovated and very nice. It is very large, zero entry, up to mostly around 5 ft deep with a small area that was 9ft; there is a children's area with a sprinkler," describes a Lake Paradise Resort visitor who enjoyed the updated amenities.

Fenced dog areas: For travelers with pets, some locations offer dedicated pet spaces. "Easy access to Interstate and pull through sites were long enough for our truck and 32' trailer without having to unhitch. Clean campground. Nice grounds. Two good fenced dog parks," notes a visitor to Kansas City East-Oak Grove KOA.

What you should know

We went to a movie outside there and fireworks for Memorial Day weekend," reports a visitor to Lake Paradise Resort, highlighting available activities even during shoulder seasons.
