Best RV Parks & Resorts near Higbee, MO

Several RV parks surround Higbee, Missouri, providing convenient options for motorhome travelers. Cottonwoods RV Park & Campground in Columbia offers 83 full hookup sites with 30/50 amp service and remains open year-round. The gravel pads are notably long, accommodating large rigs with ease. Shoemaker RV Park in Bevier features big-rig friendly sites with full hookups, while Indian Creek RV Park near Monroe City provides a more wooded setting with 50 amp electrical service and sewer connections. Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground combines historical interest with practical RV amenities including 50 amp hookups and spacious sites. "The gravel pad was very long and we had plenty of room for our 40' rig and F450," noted one Cottonwoods visitor, highlighting the ample space available at many regional RV parks.

Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region, with some parks like Mark Twain Lake Jellystone Park operating only from March through September. Most RV campgrounds in the area maintain sanitary dump stations, though Cedar Creek Resort lacks this amenity. Cell service varies by location, with stronger signals reported at parks closer to Columbia and Interstate 70. Pet policies differ between facilities - most welcome pets but Cedar Creek Resort prohibits them. Advance reservations are recommended, particularly during summer months and University of Missouri football weekends when Cottonwoods fills quickly. Many parks feature pull-through sites that eliminate the need for difficult backing maneuvers, though site spacing can be tight at some locations. Blackwater Bluffs RV Park offers both 30 and 50 amp service options across its 22 sites for travelers with varying electrical requirements.

    Good for a short stay.

    Making reservations: We made reservations a few weeks in advance (glad we did). We received an email with the site and instructions, which included calling to make final payment. This one, like many private parks, has limited office hours. So, catching them while they were in the office took a few tries.

    The park: That all said, the experience in the park was fine. Beautiful tree canopy covers the whole park, tiny playground for the kids at the back of the park, etc. There was plenty of space between sites for our tow vehicle and 37’ 5th wheel with 3 slide outs. Utilities were close (50/30/20, water, sewer). Pull through sites if nobody is slotted in front/behind (you pull through one site to get to the other). No branches in our way (we are 12’7” tall). This park is a combo of mobile homes, transient RVs and long term RVs.

    Surrounding area: There is a gas station right up the road although it was too busy / small for us so we went back toward the main Highway where there are two big ones to choose from with plenty of space to turn. Seems to be the gateway to the Ozarks for gassing up, so plenty of space and stuff.

    Cottonwoods RV Park & Campground

    Very Nice Campground

    Check-in was quick and easy and we proceeded to pull through site 83 with FHUs. The gravel pad was very long and we had plenty of room for our 40’ rig and F450. The utilities were in the middle of the pad and water pressure was decent at about 40 psi. As we were on the end of a row, we had a lot of front yard space. The sites here are very close together, but long-term guests kept their sites nice and well organized, and overall this CG was very clean. There are mature trees so satellite placement could be challenging. We were able to place our Starlink in the yard area for a good shot to the north sky. We got 4 bars on Verizon and their WiFi worked well for a campground of this size. At the office, they have a nice store and gift shop with one of the best selections of camping shirts etc. that we have seen.

    Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground — Arrow Rock State Historic Site

    Nice campsite during off season

    Stayed two nights in early March in our RV. I knew the bathrooms would be locked and that the water would be off so had full fresh tank and jerry cans. There's a dump station on site so I didn't have to go home full too. Electric at the site was appreciated so we can run the furnace fan and water heater off it. I was not expecting to see no trashcans so I had to pack out. However, there were recycling bins.

    I didn't see anyone selling firewood along the way so I scavenged for wood near the site. Not a big deal to find wood but it was wet and challenging to keep from smoking me out.

    There were only a couple other campers and they were nice not to camp next to us. Felt like we were the only ones there. The best part of camping off season.

    Walked the trail down to the river and appreciated the crushed rock trail. I didn't visit the nearby town, but will next time I visit.

    The only negative was not being able to reserve and pay ahead of arrival, which means I have to bring exact cash. Who carries cash anymore?!

    Site 37 is a premium site with 50 amp service for an additional cost. I didn't have enough cash to pay the premium site price and had already setup camp before realizing it. My RV has a 30 amp service and it was off season so I didn't feel too bad about paying the standard electric price.

    Long Branch State Park Campground

    Great Walk-In Campgrounds

    The walk-in campgrounds (it's about a 50 foot walk from the parking lot to each site) at Long Branch are located off in their own little area at the shore of the lake that offers some pretty good isolation. Although we went at a time when the water was still shut off, there are bathrooms and water available via a very short walk from the walk-in sites April 1-Oct 31. The sites are each very spacious with flat areas and material already laid out for pitching a tent and plenty of trees for throwing up a hammock. Although firewood was stated to be available year round from the vending machine, it was locked up when we went through, but there is a convenience store right across the highway from the lake that sells wood bundles and anything else you might need.

    We really enjoyed our time here and we'll definitely be coming back in the warmer months to enjoy some swimming and boating.

    Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground — Arrow Rock State Historic Site

    Lovely and peaceful campground

    We stayed on site 13 for one night in October 2020. It’s about 15-20 minutes from I70. Electric and water hookups, clean showers, very nice campground host. You’re supposed to reserve>24 hours in advance but we pulled up around 8 pm and got a site. Good spacing between sites, pretty level parking spot, picnic table, fire pit, etc. Huge and empty picnic area- beautifully maintained. Lovely spot. Wish we had more time to explore it. We would return here again.

    Frank Russell Campground

    Nice stay

    This was a 1 night stay while getting to the east coast. Most impressed by how perfectly level our paved parking pad was. We didn’t have to level the rv or even unhook it from the truck. Very few campers as some sections were closed, peaceful & quiet evening. Shady site with picnic table and fire ring. Restrooms were clean-ish (we are camping, right?), they could use a fresh coat of paint and soap dispensers. Showers were fine. Used their dump station and filled the water tank as we exited the park. Would recommend & would stay there again

    Badger — Mark Twain State Park

    Badger Loop

    A group of us stayed on the Badger loop. Each has gravel pads with electric, picnic table, lantern pole and fire ring. Plenty of buffer between sites and quiet. Clean showers, park programs for kids and friendly camp host. We enjoyed driving over to Mark Twain’s birth place and shrine and antiquing in Perry.
