Zan's Creekside Campground is a family owned and operated park. We offer RV camping, tent sites, and day time access to the river for non-campers.
30 and 50 amp RV Sites are OPEN YEAR ROUND!!!!
All RV sites are naturally shaded by the plentiful supply of tall trees on the campground. Also, all sites are less than a one minute walk to the beach. Popular activities include river tube floating from Grand Falls to our location. Grand Falls is about five minutes away by car, the return float trip takes about 1-1/2 to 2 hours (we DO rent tubes, we do NOT provide transportation). Our location is very popular for launching or retrieving kayaks and we provide parking for vehicles left at one end of the trip (we do NOT rent kayaks). Fishing is always an enjoyable pastime here as well.
We offer weekly and monthly rates for both 30 amp and 50 amp RV Sites.
Well behaved pets are welcome. Alligators must be kept on a short leash!!
$20 - $40 / night

The good: Beautiful location. Limited access due to 11’ 6” bridge to enter location. Not near Passion Play as indicated on Apple Maps. Double check location before you book!
The Bad: $2 for 5 min shower?! Campsite price, $40, doesn’t include shower. No sewer hookups. Also serves as public boat ramp. Random people coming and going. Women’s toilet is a pit toilet, (outhouse)!
Guide
Mark Twain National Forest is always a great getaway. This location is tucked away from the main road and is easy to get to. Could easily get 4 rigs + in the sight. Established fire ring (be mindful of burn bans). Close to Roaring River and Table Rock lake.

No good

Lots of ticks. Good clean campground. Bathroom. Bison roam the park. Ticks also roam the park. Found a burnt guitar. Wooden pole hit truck. Prarie walk had lots of ticks, but no tick dogs.
Guide
Stayed 3 nights. Weekend had a few family gatherings near us, but the weekdays we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Campground is well maintained with beautiful views of Table Rock Lake. We were in upper section (electric only) - the lower section next to the marina has full hookups. There are a few pull-through, but most sites are back-in and long enough for al most any rig.
ScoutAffordable and right on edge of town
Traveler
The river is pretty, seems like great fishing opportunity. We were just passing through so we didn't fish. The shower and bathrooms left a lot to be desired. Only one shower and indoor toilet on the side we stayed on and it was just kind of gross. We did find 2 outside stalls with toilets but not until the next morning so that helped. Overall it was a nice place to stop and sleep for the night. Friendly people. Cameras in the campground so it feels safe.
Guide
We were just passing through and stayed for a night. We had sewer, water, and electric hookup. A nice dog park, and even found some 4 leaf clovers!

Campground was nice and maintained. Showers in campground 2 were dirty.

Camped in Loop B on Oct 4, 2023. Camping was free at this Corp of Engineer campground since off season began on Oct 1st. The Loop B campground has several RV/tent sites arranged in sub-loops in an open field; some trees for shade. Sites are close to each other; no privacy between sites. Sites appear to be level. Each site has a metal fire ring, table and lamp pole. The loop road is paved and the sites were gravel. There were no hookups in Loop B. The water station was shut off, but the vault toilet, which wasn't very clean, was open. No camp host on duty during our stay. There is access to Stockton Lake from the loop road. There was nothing special about this campground, but has good lake access for boats. Otherwise this campgrund is suitable for an overnight stay.

I love everything about this campground from the open space, to the front manager to the friendly guests. Near enough to town to enjoy the museum and pop in for lunch, far enough away to feel detached. There's also an old Drive in movie next door! Makes you want to get an airstream and cruise down Route 66
Scout
We absolutely Love this campground! It's beautiful, peaceful & lots of things to do. From walking the trails, kayaking, camp fires, swings & play sets for the kids to enjoying the beautiful scenery. They have just about everything you need in the little store/welcome center. And the owners are the nicest people you'll ever meet!
TravelerKimmy’s is amazing! Always friendly and clean. Lots of activities for any outdoor adventures. Hiking kayaking swimming and lots of laughs come with Kimmy’s crew. They go out of their way to make your stay wonderful! If the pond on site is not big enough Stockton Lake is just minutes away or maybe you enjoy kayaking the Sac River is very close as well. Shuttle service is right up the road if needed. Keep your eyes peeled you may just find a message rock or two. We frequent Kimmy’s several times each summer and by far our absolute favorite campground in Missouri. And they are pet friendly too!
ScoutAbsolutely love everything they have here! The trails they maintain for their guests are top notch. You have to check out the lake they’re created for their campers to enjoy! Can’t go wrong with staying at Kimmy’s.

Stayed here for 4 nights during a visit with family. Park is clean. Staff is friendly. They make fresh pizza at the convenience store/office and will deliver it to your site. We were there 3 weeks before the pool opens so we didn't get a chance to see that. Nice park that's close to 1-44, James River Parkway, and unfortunately a railroad crossing. So you will hear a train horn on occasion, but no highway noise. We will come back here and stay again.
Scout
We overnighted here on the way to Hot Springs, AR. Convenient to Interstate 49, but virtually no traffic noise and none while inside the van. We arrived after the office had closed - there was a prominent note on the door as to which site to use. Electrical hookup was fine - we did not use water or cable. There were about a dozen other campers - most appeared to be long termers. The CG was VERY quiet - very peaceful. They have an off-leash dog park area which our dogs loved and used it 3-4 times the nite we were there. The bathrooms were toasty warm and VERY clean. Lavatory hot water got warm quickly, plenty of soap and towels. The office has various items for sale, from snacks to RV gear. Would not hesitate to stay again - in fact, may do so next week on our return trip.

Staying at Roaring River was on the tail end of our 15day & 4,500mi Motorcycle trip out to Colorado. My wife and I were excited sleep in a real bed for the first time in a week (vs tent/sleeping bags). We seemed to be the only tenants for the night, but we spent a good amount of time speaking with the owner before the sun set and setting up to cook dinner. The fire pits are nice and the ability to purchase a small bundle of dry firewood at the camp store on-site is very convenient. They also have snacks and beverages for sale, and are working on opening a short-order type restaurant, with an additional option for a pre-reserved nicer dinner. The bath house was very clean and equipped with full sized showers. The owners are great resources as well and are very friendly / accommodating.
There were 2 very minor negatives, both related to the fact that this location is brand new:
Overall I highly recommend staying at Roaring River Hills, and giving the glamping tents a try. So nice to be able to enjoy the peacefulness of the outdoors without all the unpacking, setup, repacking and susbstandard comfort of a sleeping bag. I am excited to ride back there in the next year to see the progress and maybe reserve one of their couples dinner packages, if they choose to pursue that as an option.
If staying here be sure to give your feedback to the owners about what you liked and would be interested in, vs their future plans. I could see this place becoming a hot spot in a beautiful area of the country.

This is a very nice park it’s $44 a night so a little more than I like to pay but it’s clean and has showers and laundry year around they said

1st night free, $20 donation after. register with Holly, 30 & 50 amp at only 3 poles, free water and dump on site. The only problem was train traffic 200' away 24/7.

Went camping with our adult daughter and her boyfriend. I am glad that we were the only ones camping because the spots were very small and close together. We had a hard time securing the tent because the ground was so rocky. The bathroom had 2 toilets but no doors and the exterior door didn't have a lock on it. The sink was so close to one of the toilets that you could have washed your hands while sitting on the toilet. The power supply was next to the road and not next to where you would put your tent so I am very happy that we had brought extra extension cords. All of the camping spots had a fire ring, BBQ grill and a picnic table. There was no clear shot to the water from any of the camping sites from what I could tell. We did however go to Anglers Paradise to see how the water was and it wasn't as clear and swimmable as I would have wanted. We did however find a nice little spot called Sycamore Creek on #10 and it is the clearest water you could amagine! Swimming was amazing there and it was only about 7 minutes away! Over all we had a great time camping!! Oh yeah, I did try fishing but didn't have much luck.
Scout
The staff is very nice here. The spots are spacious and shaded. Our spot was pretty flat also which is nice. There isn’t an enclosed dog area but places to walk them . It’s a fairly packed parking lot layout. Very quiet and good location.
GuideFavorite campground on our road-trip so far. Shaded spots, clean bathhouses. Can rent boats. Nearby attractions.
Guide
We called on our way and the woman said they had plenty of space and since we were arriving after hours to just come in and pick any available spot and pay in the morning. It was near the highway but oh so quiet. Checkout in the morning was easy and Mike at the office was so friendly. Excellent place to stay!!
GuideNice Shady spot overlooking the river. My spot was shaded by black walnut trees. With the sound of the river in the background. Totally relaxing.
Scout
They have everything you could want! Arcade, swimming pool, kids playground and a pond to fish. On top of those they have bathrooms & showers with a sauna in each and a laundry unit which are all very nice! I wouldn’t even call them owners because they definitely do not act like it, they’re the sweetest people you could meet along the way. They offer firewood to buy from them and propane as well if you run out on site and don’t want to drive anywhere. This is the best place we’ve stayed at yet!
Traveler
The campground is not very well kept other than the bathroom cleanliness. There's not even soap dispensers available. Grass had not been mowed in quite a while and was overgrown and hard to walk through without getting bugs and grass seeds on your legs. We actually had the only site that had water, the rest were dry with a water spigot for every few spots. The worst part was the lack of trash receptacles, there aren't any! There is a dumpster at the dump station we found on the way out, but in the campsites, and even day use area, there isn't a single trash can. Overall, the location is good, but there are better options!
