Best Cabin Camping near Dixon, MO

Cabins near Dixon, Missouri range from rustic to fully furnished accommodations with varying amenities. Bennett Spring State Park Campground offers rental cabins with electric hookups and proximity to trout fishing opportunities. Boiling Springs Campground features cabin rentals with electricity, drinking water, and shower access. "The cabin was disgusting, bugs crawling in the fridge, door was held together with a wire hanger," noted one visitor at Ruby's Landing River Resort, highlighting the importance of researching specific properties before booking. Most cabins include basic furnishings with picnic tables and fire rings nearby for outdoor dining and evening relaxation.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Montauk State Park Campground provides cabin accommodations year-round with electric hookups and access to shared bathroom facilities. Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area offers military-affiliated guests access to cabins ranging from one to three bedrooms. A visitor commented about Military Park Fort Leonard Wood Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area: "There are clean showers/bathrooms and a dump station." Pet policies vary by property, with many allowing pets in cabin areas for additional fees. Reservations are typically required well in advance, especially during summer months and fishing season.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary widely between properties - some offer refrigerators, microwaves and basic cooking equipment while others provide only outdoor cooking options via fire rings with grates. On-site camp stores at locations like Froggys River Resort and Ozark Outdoors-Riverfront Resort stock essential supplies, though selection is limited and prices higher than in town. As described in feedback on The Dyrt, "The camp store is amazing. They have a full menu including pizza for those days that you're too tired to cook." Visitors planning extended stays should consider bringing groceries from larger towns or checking with the property about nearby shopping options.

    Montauk State Park Campground

    relaxing and enjoyable; remote off grid

    We are trout fishers. This place is perfect for easy stream and running water fishing. We stayed in loop 3, site 325. We walked over to the "river" about 75 yards from our campsite. The water is shallow and clear. it was perfect. You are off grid in this park with Verizon (our service) or T-Mobile (another guest looking for connection). The lodge has Wi-Fi and I was able to pick up signal to text and call when standing outside. No connection for any data at our camp site. No Over air TV stations. One FM radio station. I you want to have any entertainment, BRING DVDs.

    Riverfront Campground and Canoe

    Camping,Kayaking,fishing 13 Riverfront De, Lebanon Mo

    Nestled in the woods just beyond Bennett Springs State Park is just a slice of camping heaven! Lower campground area is just a picture perfect as the campground winds along a section of the Niangua River. Campground supports any type of camping. Upper level has new full service sites. Great Owners run the well stocked store and see to your needs. Camping cabins for rent. Great shower house. Loved this place we will be back soon. Definitely a 12 out of 10!

    RANGER REVIEW: I had the opportunity to review the GCI Slim Fold Cook Station. Wow what a great addition! Totally loved it. Spacious room on top. Found it to be pretty stable. Sever hooks for hanging items for quick access. Made from sturdy material. Set up and take down super easy. We used iron grill with it and found it to be a match. Also used as a buffet for feeding larger number. Very versatile . Definite 10

    Well-maintained on the river campground

    Clean and well-maintained campground off the Niangua River. Showerhouse is ok- not air conditoned but relatively clean. Sites are nice with a parking pad, picnic table, campfire ring with grill, and lantern post. Great general store on property! Can’t wait to come back again. They’re supposed to be adding more soon.

    Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area

    Nice military campground on the Lake of the Ozarks

    The Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area (LORA) is a great destination for camping, boating, swimming, water skiing, fishing and other outdoor activities. The lake is one of the Nation's largest man-made lakes, providing you with over 1150 miles of shoreline to enjoy. LORA welcomes Active Duty Military, Retired Military, members of the National Guard and Reserves, DoD employees with ID cards, family members and Fort Leonard Wood contract employees.  Plenty to do and see here.  Boat rentals, hiking, and others mentioned above.  The LORA Country Store carries ice, beverages, firewood and a small selection of food including snacks, milk, eggs and bread. The store also carries the basic necessities needed for camping and fishing, including fishing licenses.  Can rent a tent site, camper site with full or partial hook ups, cabins 1-3 bedroom, etc.  The marina has boat and jet-ski rentals (pontoons, wave runners, jet ski's, ski boats, fishing boats, pontoons, etc.) that are much more reasonable then other rental places in the area. Area is staffed by on-duty MP's out of Fort Leonard Wood.

    Ozark Outdoors-Riverfront Resort

    Fun and plenty of amenities

    Great staff and gift shop. We once camped in the late fall with our pop up camper and it was very quiet and green. We saw deer and my husband talked back and forth with an owl in the woods. We chose an electric site towards the back to avoid most people. I was pregnant and they had already winterized the back bathroom/shower house but opened up a room for me to use so I didn’t have to shlep my belly all the way across the grounds. Tent sites are very close together and this campground is very crowded in the summer with parties and floaters. I would not call this a family float trip personally but I do see many people bring their kids. Gift shop has basically everything but you pay a convenience price. I enjoy this float route a lot and I hear they have a kids tube loop but I have not experienced that. Multiple bath houses, as clean as you expect a campground bath house to be. Bring your own soap for hand washing. In the summer they have a restaurant with campsite delivery and sometimes live music. Last I saw the playground was not huge but my kids still enjoyed it. Rock beach for wading and swimming. They have small cabins and a pool but we use our camper or tent and swim in the river. Nearby is Onondaga Cave which is a nice experience especially when it is blazing hot outside.
