    Peculiar Park Place

    Shakedown with old friends

    This is the campground to be at if you are looking for a staging area just south of the KC area with full hookups, level sites and amazing owners.

    Recently downsized our rig and selected this location for the initial shakedown. Had an easy to access pull through site that had 50/30 amp access, water and sewer. Nice landscaping, plenty of place to walk.

    Accepts cask or check for payments, propane sold on site. Short drive from Flying J and grocery store

    Peculiar Park Place

    Great place!

    We enjoyed it here, but it snowed so we didn’t explore the trails while we were there. Our internet worked great through Verizon and ATT, we never tried the park WiFi. Clean laundry facilities, pull through site was a little tight, but worked well. If we’re in the KC area again, we’ll definitely stay there. Only drawback, the target audience is a bit older so no playground or park for kids, but plenty of open grassy areas worked too. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. They do propane refill, which was awesome.

    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.

    The Great Escape RV and Camp Resort

    Ok, not great

    Stopped here for an overnight on our way home to Georgia from Yellowstone. It’s ok for a 1-night stop. I wouldn’t stay more. The sites are level, with long pull-throughs, with full hookups. But there is no shade. Also no store. There is a grill/bar that serves dinner, drinks and appetizers. Pool, playground, dog park, stocked fishing pond, laundry. Bathroom/shower facilities were ok. Several text sites did have shade.

    Kansas City East-Oak Grove KOA

    Great overnight

    Easy access to Interstate and pull through sites were long enough for our truck and 32’ trailer without having to unhitch. Stayed just one night as we passed through. Looked like it would be a good place to stay for multiple nights.

    Clean campground. Nice grounds. Two good fenced dog parks.

    Only negatives were our hookups were literally in the next site next to their table, and their fire ring was very close to our trailer.

    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.

    Owl Creek Market and RV Park

    Really nice campground for overnight stay!

    This is a Good Sam Campground.

    Pros: New owners making significant updates! Incredibly clean, roomy & up to date facility Nice market with great variety Pool table & foosball table New machines in laundry facility Right off interstate, but still quiet Immaculate pull thru, roomy site Fire pit Picnic table Level, concrete slab Both 30 & 50 AMP Full hookups Friendly & prompt service coming out to us when we pulled in

    Cons: Not tons to do here in this area Pool being added & construction in progress to add more sites (future PRO) No basketball court

    Knob Noster State Park Campground

    Nice & Shady

    Nice & Shady State Park; 30 amp only, no water or sewer at sites. Water readily available throughout the park, dump station near exit. Dumpsters are not near the the dump station. Cost: $21/night for electric site. All gravel, except handicapped sites which are nicely paved and level. Very quiet park, hiking & biking available, kayaking at park lake (very mossy), lots and lots of stupid raccoons at night.

    Blue Springs Lake Campground

    Nice County Campground

    Both RV Life Trip Wizard navigation and GPS took us to Campground Rd where there were signs to the camping area. The check in area at this county campground (CG) was a little tight but doable with our 40’ 5th wheel and F450 truck. We proceeded to back-in site 29 with FHUs. The road area was wide, so we had no issues backing into the site. The utilities were place middle-back on the site and we had no problems reaching. The site slopes to the passenger side and down hill to the road, so we used a few levelers. Space between sites varies within the CG. Our site was very close to 30 but we were on the end with a nice yard. Water pressure was decent. There’s no Wifi in the CG. We got 3 bars on both Verizon and T-Mobile. There are mature trees here, but most sites except a few north perimeter would have a shot for satellite. The bathhouse was newer and in good condition plus there’s a laundry in one of the restroom buildings. This CG is a good option as it's just east of Kansas City. We were here overnight and would stay here again. ChatGPT: First edit, I asked for a more engaging narrative. It did that but took accuracy away from the review. Then I asked ChatGPT to just edit.

Guide to Higginsville

Camping near Higginsville, Missouri includes several options situated along the Interstate 70 corridor at elevations between 700-850 feet. The area experiences humid continental climate with hot summers and moderately cold winters, making year-round camping possible at most locations with seasonal considerations from October through March. Weather patterns include summer highs above 85°F and winter lows frequently below freezing.

What to do

Fishing without permits: The pond at Country Gardens RV Park offers fishing without requiring a license. "There is a pool, bathrooms, laundry, and a cute little country store here. It appears they are expanding or at least have recently added camping spots," notes Caleb P.

Swimming options: Many campgrounds maintain pools for recreation when not visiting larger attractions. At Lake Paradise Resort, "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," according to Julie B.

Movie nights and holiday events: Seasonal activities occur at various RV campgrounds near Higginsville. "We went to a movie outside there and fireworks for Memorial Day weekend. The pool was open for the first Saturday but it was rainy and of course cold. It was still so much fun. Can't wait to be back for 4 of July!!" shares Erica B. about Lake Paradise Resort.

What campers like

Local food shopping: The specialty foods available at campground markets receive frequent praise. "Great camp store with selections of sausage and cheese. Also, small selection of wine," writes Kirk H. about Owl Creek Market and RV Park.

Affordable full hookup options: Budget-conscious campers appreciate the value at smaller parks. At Mayview RV Park, visitors find exceptional pricing with basic amenities. "20/night including full hookups! Town population only 600. There's a bar & grill and a brunch cafe around the corner from the RV park. Payment is self serve, no reservations," notes Phil R.

Dog-friendly facilities: Dedicated pet areas make travel with animals more comfortable. "Nice dog park with bench and shade. All sites are FHU. They offered to move us to a pull thru, but I picked our site based on proximity to the dog park," explains Maggie C. about her stay at Great Escape RV Park.

What you should know

Road noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some campgrounds more than others. At Trailside RV Park, "Noise. Mostly from the highway, but also trains and air traffic. Situated between two neighborhoods, the highway, and an RV dealership. Did I mention noise? WiFi is laughable," reports Kris M.

Site spacing variations: Space between RV sites differs significantly between properties. "Sites are very close but each has a grass strip. They have multiple pull through sites," explains Jan S. about Country Gardens RV Park.

Water quality benefits: Some locations offer exceptional water quality. At Campus RV Park, "First off, the water in Independence MO top 10 in the world over time, and in #3 currently," shares Kevin H.

Tips for camping with families

Access to small-town amenities: Smaller communities near Higginsville provide walkable access to local businesses. "Stayed here for 2 weeks, clean cut and straight forward park. Functions like a campsite with a registration box. Small park right next to it that the kids enjoyed. It's a very small town, one restaurant and one bar walking distance away," writes Rocio C. about Mayview RV Park.

Playground availability: When selecting campgrounds with children, check for play facilities. "Clean facilities with playgrounds and showers. New machines in laundry facility," notes Beth R. about Country Gardens RV Park.

Frog hunting opportunities: Natural areas around some campgrounds provide unique wildlife experiences. "There are nice spots right by the lakes with big trees for shade. Roads going up higher past us were a little rough but made for great walks with kids. Kids found tons of frogs and snails to play with," mentions Brandi D. about Lake Paradise Resort.

Tips from RVers

Early arrival recommendations: Some rv campgrounds near Higginsville, Missouri fill quickly during peak seasons. "We arrived late at night, 9 pm on a Friday, and there was still room for us without a reservation. There was plenty of room to back in the rig, they also have pull through spots if needed," advises Caleb P.

Site selection strategy: Choosing specific sites can improve the camping experience. At Campus RV Park, "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," suggests John L.

Stopover versus extended stay considerations: Different RV parks near Higginsville serve different purposes based on amenities and location. "Pay more for the pull through you'll have tons of parking even if your rig is big. Our rig is 44 ft and we parked two 2500's on the pad no problem," recommends E C. about Worlds of Fun Village.
