Cozy Corner RV Park in Clinton maintains level sites with 50/30 amp full hookups and is frequently at capacity during peak seasons.

GuideCampground is right off I 70 so it’s convenient. We stayed at site 51 which is the farthest pull thru from the road , it was all concrete and gravel one big parking lot with a fancy cheese shop up front . Good for one night stay with full hook up was a little pricy but I would pay for the convenience
ScoutAwesome place to stay right off the highway. Owner Mike is a very friendly and accommodating fellow. Great view of overlooking deck. There is even a couple chipping greens to practice your short game. We would definitely recommend this place.
TravelerGood for an overnight. Water and electric at each site with communal dump station. Clean and modern restrooms.
ScoutHost was very nice, just outside city so access to what you need if you go north, access to hiking and country if you go south. I got concrete slab and full hookups. Showers and restrooms clean.
GuideConvenient off I70, quiet, nice sites right along the river.
GuideVery crowded. Sites on top of each other and over priced for what it offers. Nice showers but only 2 for over a hundred sites. Would not recommend.
