Best RV Parks & Resorts near La Russell, MO

After reading a couple of reviews on this new campground (CG), we called about availability and got someone at Lambert’s Cafe who was not much help. We arrived at this new RV park addition to Lambert’s Cafe from I-57 with no issues. Coming in from I-57, we followed the signs for Lamberts and J.T. RV Park on the left side of the road. The entrance to the RV area is the second entrance into Lambert’s main parking lot. You follow the signage back to the CG which sits off to the right and behind Lambert's. This CG is first-come-first-serve. There’s a sign at the kiosk that states sites 6, 7, 8, 9, 27, 28, 29, 30,& 31 are for stays of one week or longer. We selected and parked in site 25 with FHUs, and then went back to the kiosk and paid our$40. The sites are narrow and very close to each other but this was on a Sunday and the park was fairly empty. There were about five transients overnight along with the four long-termers so having someone next to you was not an issue. There is no fire pit, picnic table, cable, or WiFI. One of the long-termers told me there’s a plan to put in a shower house, restrooms, and other amenities. We do not know if this is factual as we did not see any camp-host type of person during our stay. The CG is in an industrial area and we heard backing beeps at about 2:00 AM for a few minutes but other than that it was not bad for this type of area near a main road. We noticed a long-term resident taking their dog out and not picking up after the pet, which seemed to be common based on the'land mines' we noted while walking our dogs around. There is a dump station here that is a $10 fee if not staying in the CG. Lambert's Cafe is within easy walking distance. We had good water pressure at 50 psi and 4 bars on Verizon. This place is pretty much a parking lot with no trees so no problem with satellite. We got a good variety of OTA stations as well. This CG was a little on the pricey side for what you get unless maybe you are a huge Lambert’s Cafe fan. No surprises at this new RV Park as the sites are pretty much level and the roads easy to navigate. However, this place worked for an overnighter.

‘‘This Campground has sections. The one group is the (Sentury) Indian, and the second loop is the Eagle Point Fox loop. We were at the Sentry loop. We liked site 71 in that loop. It offered the most space and was a full hook up. That is one of the best things about this campground. Several full hookups. Boat ramp was nice. Not great but ok for kayaking. Nice swim beach. Campground host we met was not very friendly or helpful.

Cheap full hook ups at a nice lakeside campground, they also have a hotel and cabins that are nice getaways. The food at the restaurant is pretty good as well.

Full hook up. Quiet, 4 minutes away from Roaring River State park. Great staff. Labor Day weekend the place was packed. Kid and dog friendly.  Great to be there. Keeping on top of the list to camp there again.

Clean and well maintained KOA. Friendly personnel. Shaded, pull thru sites as well as back-ins, cabins, and tent sites. Sites are very level with crushed stone pads. Good water pressure. Lots of grass. Patio sites are available. Internet is poor, as typical of most RV parks. Cable tv with about 30 channels. Good stopover park.

This is a city park with a mile walking loop, playgrounds, bathrooms, a couple spots with RV power hookups, and a dump station. The first night is free and then it's $20/night up to 7 nights in a thirty day window. It is right by the train tracks, but we were able to sleep through once we fell asleep.

When you cross the train tracks, turn right and the RV park is passed the aquatic center. There are about 7 spots, at least 3 with electric hookup. First come, first served and you call the number on the sign to register.

Tent area is undeveloped, but the lawn is fairly level, bathrooms and showers are only a short walk away. Nicole showed me to the site and was a wonderful help. Great spot that most people might pass up because its right next to the highway, but honestly you can barely tell aside from the hum of trucks. Bathrooms are beautiful and clean, 2 toilets, 2 showers and a sauna in each. The place is quiet and seems like a lot of people here are long term residents. We are in a tent on the back lawn by a small fishing lake. Nice playground for younger kids and you cant beat the atmosphere and the birds. Free on-site laundry which I took advantage of when I needed to wash and dry my blanket on a cold night. Unfourtunately no campfire for tent camp sites, but bring a camp stove and you'll be fine. They are actively doing renovations and the office isnt open yet, so you have to call the park manager, Kim, for info and she is wonderful. All the staff is. Kim came by and took my son and 2 other kids on a golf cart ride on the trail behind the lake and they had a blast. We are loving it here and are sad to be leaving after the weekend. Update: I have just been informed they have a Willie Nelson impersonator doing a show here tonight, this place would get 6 stars if I could.

This was a fun private campground usually used as a music festival site. On the weekend I went, things were quiet and there were only a few campers. You can pay online or at the self check in kiosk(the friendly cat will want to visit). The few campers that were there were scattered over the 160 acres, with some in the trees, some along the back road, and some in the festival stage area. I picked a nice spot on the edge of the trees in the meadow where I could hear the turkeys calling to each other in the morning. Most of the campers up in the stage area seemed to be long term campers with semi-permanent structures(including a shipping container) and several converted school buses. It seemed that only the spots in the woods had rock firepits, and no sites had picnic tables. There was a bathhouse at the main check in that was available to“resident campers” only due to covid. The rest of us made due with the porta potties scattered around the property. There is an awesome frisbee golf course that seemed to cover the entire property and have more than the usual number of baskets. Also on the property are several art installations and a Jerry Garcia shrine. What more could you want?

Peddlers RV Park is nestled on the Mark Twain National Forest just 2 miles north of Roaring River State Park. We are an all breed, dog friendly park. We offer 30/50 amp electric service on all sites along with water and sewer hookups. We also offer free Wi-fi to our guests.

Other amenities include a gameroom, an 8 swing gazebo with a 6 ft firepit, 11 acres of hiking and onsite laundry facilities. Ice, firewood and snacks are also available for purchase.

Being a smaller park, we offer a more intimate setting for the discriminating camper. We invite everyone to come visit us and start making memories that will last a lifetime.

Camped here last minute to a walk up site. We have a 19' RV. Spots are paved and level, raised above the lake. Gorgeous views and water accessible from our spot. Friendly park attendants and campers! Beach swimming area. Did not use shower/toilet facilities. Water and electric hookups were convenient and picnic table and fire pit were a few steps down from our elevated spot.

Perfectly nice place, very friendly staff, and really not much to complain about. The wifi signal was very weak in the tent sites, but useable. There is a train that goes by occasionally, but didnt bother me. Nice little fenced dog runs, was a cute touch. But at the end of the day it is basically like all KOA’s an RV parking lot with trees. Close to Springfield which is nice, and there arent a lot of great options around this area so it was fine for a one night stay over. Bonus points for being able to get a pizza delivered to my tent site.

Real nice park Especially for what we paid. $8.00 for electric only per night. Senior rate off season, $2.00 discount. Two loops East & West. We stayed in the east on a fairly level site, all nicely spaced. Most sites are pretty level, except some that back to the woods. Good ATT signal. Did not try OTATV. Dump & fresh water were near by. Real friendly camp host. A great night over for us.

rick and church are great to work with. it's a small campground with full hookups. shower house is clean and nice size. with a small game room with pool table.
