9. Lead Mine Conservationa Area
Tunas, Missouri1 Review•37 SavesThere are five primitive camping areas. One is for groups by special use permit only and one is only open October 1 through January 15. The main campground has 51 sites with 26 of them able to accommodate trailers. Camping is all on a first come first served basis. Lead Mine Conservation Area is in northeastern Dallas County, 40 miles south of Lake of the Ozarks, 12 miles north of Bennett Springs, five miles east of Tunas, and 21 miles northeast of Buffalo. The area provides about two miles of Niangua River frontage and has a 3.5-mile stretch of Jakes Creek running through it. The area also has several wildlife watering ponds and seven springs and is composed mainly of forest land. The Conservation Department purchased the original 600 acres for the Lead Mine Conservation Area in 1965 through a University of Missouri land grant. Additional land was acquired with Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson funding, and the state conservation sales tax, increasing the area to 7,761 acres. During early settlement in the late 1800s and early 1900s, some lead mining did take place near the area. However, evidence of this is hard to find. Many people made their living and raised their families on small farms that now make up Lead Mine Conservation Area. The town of Lead Mine, just one-quarter mile west, is a small community known for its country atmosphere, hand-made goods and horse drawn buggies. Lead Mine Conservation Area contains many excellent examples of dolomite glade communities, oak-hickory uplands, and clear running springs. Deer, turkey, raccoon, squirrel, rabbit, coyote, and many other small animals and birds are commonly seen from the gravel roads and forest trails. Wildlife habitat management includes the creation of watering ponds and manipulation of fields within the forest to provide added food sources. Timber harvesting is also an important element in habitat management. It produces forage and cover for forest wildlife. There are five primitive camping areas. One is for groups by special use permit only and one is only open October 1 through January 15. The main campground has 51 sites with 26 of them able to accommodate trailers. Camping is all on a first come first served basis. This area has an unmanned shooting range. The Range is Closed on Monday's for Maintenance.

Camping at the zoo
If it's your birthday or a bachelor/Bachelorette party, this is your place. They have a family side and a party side (the zoo). Don't expect to get much rest in the zoo. There are plenty of campsites to enjoy. Reserve yours early they fill up fast in the summer. Huzzah Valley is the know party camp ground if you live in the Saint Louis metropolitan area

Weekend away
We took a couples float during the week to get away from our busy lives and relax. The huzzah resort is always top notch. Very clean(except the port-potties), great amenities and if you forget something you can always get it at the shop! The river was perfect and we practically had the place to ourselves with only one other tent in view! Not to bad for a Week day camp trip!

Beautiful campground
My family and I come here every year the owners are great. Camp ground is quiet and family friendly.

Froggys River Resort
By far my favorite!
The manager/owner went above and beyond. We called and said we would be there at around 6:30 (the office closed at 6) and arrived a little later than that. He was waiting for us.
We got a spot down by the river, started a fire, had dinner and went to sleep to the sound of the river running. The place is beautiful and I wish I had more time to spend there. I will definitely be going back when I can spend three of four nights.

Clean clean clean
We have stayed here four or five times now, so clean and the people working are friendly. We have stayed other places and this is by far the most clean and maintained. Highly recommend.

Huzzah Valley Resort
Easy Pull In Site
Stayed here for a float. Although we stayed on a rainy weekend, it was a nice spot, and we would definitely come back. (Our site did get a little on the muddy side, so we may try a different spot when we return.)

Ozark Outdoors-Riverfront Resort
Super crowded and heavily commercialized
I knew this was a resort heavily based on river activities, so I didn't come into this expecting a casual campground in the woods. But I was still surprised by just how jam-packed and crowded the entire place is, and excessively commercialized trying to sell you something everywhere you turn. The large number of sites with everything from primitive to full hookups is nice. But everything is like sitting on top of your neighbor. Yeah they did decent at keeping enough trees for shade on most of it, but most RV spots you've got like 6 to 7 feet between you and the next one and that's without slideouts. If you're visiting the area to do the canoeing, rafting, tubing, all those fun river activities, then this is a great place because they provided all in one spot. But for a relaxing family camping trip, I personally won't be returning to this site.

Well maintained, big lodge/shop, beautiful rivers for floating
Tent camped here in September. Only one river had floats on it due to low water that time of year. Beautiful area, clear water. If you go in the early or later seasons be prepared to pull your raft a number of times.
The campgrounds were well maintained. One we used, and many other we saw, had small trees outlining the edges of the sites.
We had a group of people next to use who were very loud on Friday evening until past midnight . Saturday everybody was exhausted and slept.
As this place is near STL I imagine it's popular. I'm hesitant to return during busy season. Although there would be more float options, I imagine it would be very loud at night with lots of young drunk people. Not my ideal camping situation.
Also, the trip was expensive. Between the campground site and floating I think it was over $200 for the weekend.
Mike G.TravelerFroggys River Resort
A lot of space and next to a river
I stayed in the tent camping area. The host was very helpful with everything. I was right next to the river, and the sounds of the water made everything tranquil. There is a ton of space for tents and RVs, and the road in is well paved. In the morning, a bald eagle flew up the river.

Paddy Creek Recreation Area
Sweet!
Great place to camp. Stayed at site 22. Most sites are well shaded and spacious. Good privacy between sites. Parking pads are short and lined with huge boulders. Worked fine for our 16ft TT big rigs probably not so much. Vault toilet clean and stocked. No fee just donations. Dollar General and a gas station located in nearby Roby. No cell service at cg. Had to drive up the hill to get a signal.

Froggys River Resort
Awesome weekend with friends
This great little campground on the Gasconade River was a delight. I had a camper and the full hook up was awesome. They have a cabin, a little retro camper and a large guest house for those who don’t have a camper or want to tent.
Firewood brought to your campsite upon request. Shower house. Open spaces. Katie and her crew are awesome.
Float this great river and end up at your camp. Beautiful river that does not have any jet boats. Make this one of the places to visit for sure.
Brooke A.GuidePaddy Creek Recreation Area
Great Spot
Great free campground near the river. Volt toilets, trash cans, and picnic tables. All spots have paved pull-in spots. I'd say max length for rigs are 30 feet. I'd stay here again. They have a camp host but they are no bother.
Lyric O.ScoutPaddy Creek Recreation Area
Quiet and secluded
We've been camping here for 3-4years now and we are still amazed at how quiet and secluded it is. We love being able to have an escape from the world and forced to not have our electrons since there is no service. Our first time here we got to experience the amazing raccoons which made for a pretty funny story later. We absolutely love it here.

Decent hiking.
There is some good hiking here. There is a dispersed spot and a formal campground. The formal campground is the better spot to stay at

Great Secluded Campground
I spent the weekend here mid September. It was a nice place. Quiet and secluded. On the creek side, every campsite has trails leading to the creek. There is a vault restroom if needed, each site has a paved parking spot big enough for my truck and 25ft camper. I would say it could fit up to a 35ft trailer. There is a picnic table, Shepard's hook, and a fire pit/grate. I really enjoyed my stay here and will be coming back often.

Great easy stay for our van!
Close to Route 66, easy turn off …5-6 minutes up the road.
Great service, quiet. By a lovey pond and down a ramp to the river for canoeing or tubing. Nice shower house. Good stay! - CChuck M.Traveler
Froggys River Resort
Awesome service
We called ahead and arrived 45 minutes after their closing time. The gentleman at the office cheerfully guided us to our campsite. It is blissfully quiet. Nothing but icadas, crickets and quiet laughter from the camp next to us.
Nicole H.ScoutOzark Outdoors-Riverfront Resort
Favorite campsite
We camp here multiple times over the last five years. Great staff, lots of things to do,
multiple different floats and a great tube loop.
Dan W.ScoutOzark Outdoors-Riverfront Resort
Double check float
We have several times been switched from 5 mile float to 3 mile float without warning. Understand that if river is high that it’s needed. Last time was told that it was still not clear from flood years ago. They should stop having that as an option if that is true.
- Allie A.Guide
Huzzah Valley Resort
Great time
Stayed here this weekend (I usually go on a few float trips a year) and it was fun as always!! Cleanest showers and bathrooms so far this summer! The only confusing thing was the camping lots there was a little confusing over have the lost were separated but the security helps us and another group get it all sorted out with out issues. (If you’re staying here, lots are from the number to the LEFT) but over all great trip!! Cant wait to come back. I Met so many nice people!

Great River Access, Excellent Trout Fishing, Close to Bennett Springs
We love this campground. The staff is great and the campground is beautiful. It offers direct access to the Niangua River, and it is only a short drive from Bennett Springs State Park, where you can fly fish and pull trout from the river from dawn until dusk.
The float trips on the Niangua are gorgeous. I recommend going on a weekday to avoid the crowds.
Our most recent trip was in the beginning of June. It was a little muddy. Our fall trips to this location were absolutely gorgeous.
