Lazy Days RV Resort in Danville MO. This is a really nice campground. All gravel pads large sites full hook ups and great decorations. The folks are really nice. We pulled in and Nancy Lined us up but it was a little down in front and her husband came back and wanted to know if we were all right as it was not level and we said we had to take the Jeep off and we would just back up or use our levelers. They were really concerned and that was nice. Never been into a campground where anyone thought about us being level. I love how the laundry room and bathrooms were decorated so cute. They have wifi and did say that as the day went on it would not be as good as folks come in. Was nice for them to tell us.

I wanted to escape the house and go camping while on the work from home order (Covid-19 happening at the time of this review), so I headed to a very local park and campground to pitch my tent. I've been to 370 Lakeside Park many times to walk around the huge lake and to hear concerts in the summer, but I had never camped there. Still haven't. I'll explain. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, they were not so keen on having tent campers. But they were very nice and gave me the general lowdown on this "in the city" campground. Since they opened the campground, most of their campers have been RV owners, and so it is really designed for the RV camper. There is a small primitive section for group tent camping, but the majority of the sites are full hookups for RVs. Some sites are pull through and some are back in. All have picnic tables and fire pits. The park has planted some trees, but they are really just saplings, so there is no shade yet. There is a nice bathhouse with free showers for the campers and pay laundry. If you are lucky, you can get a site close to the water, but it means the walking trail is right next to your unit. Trade offs, I suppose. One couple I talked to was camping long term (I think they are permanent RV'ers) and they got a free membership to the St Peter's RecPlex recreation center with their long term spot (they said something about having to book a least a month out to get this perk). One of the downsides to this location is that it is prone to flooding. It was out of commission for most of the summer of 2019 as the entire area was flooded. But the City of St Peters did a great job getting this place back to usable with new sod, a new bathhouse, and some general sprucing up. The lake is great to walk around, about a 3 mile walk or bike on a paved trail. You can see all kinds of wildlife in and around the lake- deer, bald eagles, pelicans, ducks, snakes. In the summers they have live music in the large pavilion, and you can rent kayaks and other small boats to take out on the lake as well as bikes to ride around on. The office told me that they have 24 hour on site security also. If I really wanted to tent camp, I could rent a section of the group camping area, but $30 seemed pricey for just me, and it was very soggy to boot. Or I could rent an RV spot, but $45 was silly when I don' t need hookups.

We chose Cahokia RV Park because of its close proximity to St. Louis Missouri. We stayed in a gravel site with a concrete pad, fire pit, picnic table and full-hook ups. The spaces are tighter, but that was expected being closer to a city. There is a playground, pool and pond area to walk around. We were pleased with the cleanliness of the bathrooms and showers and had no major complaints. The price reflected what we got out of our stay.
Traveler
Traveling in 38’ Class A Motorhome. I’m trying not to be totally negative. The owner/manager was extremely nice and we felt safe while staying here, outside of that this campground needs ALOT of TLC. It is very old and worn.... entering the office was an experience itself, cd’s, videos, boxes, and stuff everywhere (and I do mean everywhere). The RV spots were gravel, pull through, & full hookup. The grounds were scattered with old trucks and broken down cars - the buildings and most tables were green and need cleaning. The trash container was a black pickup truck that was overflowing with garbage bags. The ‘fishing pond’ was a solid sheet of green algae. We stayed one night while traveling through KY. $35 w/Good Sams discount!
Guide
Nice basic rv park with full hook ups and a clean shower house. All the roads and pads are gravel and level. Alll the campsites are decently sized and looks like all of them will house 25’ or bigger campers. The Katy trail is right next to the campground for waking or biking. There is also a really nice brewery right wt the entrance. Within walking distance is a really nice winery and a couple bars. All of these places have cold beer and live music on the weekends. My only complaint is they have some drainage issues if it rains a lot. A few of the campsites will flood, not bad enough to get to your camper, but just enough to be annoying.

Hermann is an amazing village of old world charm nestled into the Missouri River Valley. Picture book clock towers and church steeples among 19th century era brick cottages adorn the historic German immigrant influenced village with plenty of restaurants, shops and galleries for wandering pleasure. Hermann is right in the heart of Missouri wine country with two stunning wineries within walking distance of the campground; Stone Hill and Hermannhof...these are not to be missed. For cycling enthusiasts...the 240 mile Katy State Park Trail(nation's longest Rails to Trails Project) is just across the river from Hermann and follows the Missouri river through countless little river towns rich in history. A short distance south on highway 19 is the Swiss Meat Company, well worth a visit. The city park has an amazing campground operated by the City of Hermann. They offer full hook up sites(water, electric and sewer), water and electric, electric only, and tent camping. 18 full hook up sites are paved with grass areas and fire rings, 25 full hook up sites are on a paved parking lot(big rig friendly), and 8 electric only sites are on grassy area. A bath house with showers and restrooms are available, along with a dump station.To make a reservation please call the City Office, 573-486-5400, Monday-Friday between 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. Full hookup(water, electric& sewer)…..$30.00 Water and electric…..$25.00 Electric only…..$20.00 Tent camping…..$15.00 This is a great spot for an overnight...but don't cut yourself short...it's absolutely great for an extended stay. http://hermannmo.com/campground/

Pros: For this to be such a small RV park (smallest we’ve stayed at so far) the sites are very spacious! The wi-fi was surprisingly good enough that my wife and I could both work off of it and even stream shows on the Roku the whole week, except for our last day for some strange reason. Of course, with it being close to St. Louis we had great phone service, full bars of 5G with Verizon, and there were a lot of stores, restaurants, gas stations, etc right nearby.
Cons: There wasn’t any signage telling us where to park to check in or any of that which was more confusing because there’s a separate entrance for the office than there is for the actual park so you have to park on the park side and walk over to the office side. The park seems to be catered to full time/seasonal campers there so there’s not a lot of “amenities” like you’d normally have at an RV park (no bathrooms/showers, pool, fire ring, etc). And of course it’s not necessarily a “pretty” RV park but it’s not really ugly either, just somewhere in the middle.
Pro/con: I had to make a separate category for this because it was a pro and con. The con is: While we were there they had a record rainfall amount and the park apparently already has flooding issues so it was flooding pretty bad but also our RV was right next to a creek that had risen really high and was in danger of flooding our site completely and maybe even into our RV (worst case scenario of course). The pro is: The staff came out while this was happening to warn us of the potential flooding and offered to let us move to another site away from the creek if we needed to. Luckily, as they were discussing with us the rain had quite and the flooding was going down so we didn’t have to take any action but it was very nice that they came out to check on us and try to give us a safe place to move to.
Overall: As I’ve mentioned this is a small park that’s not anything overly special but it’s an affordable place that has very spacious full hook up sites and the staff are clearly very helpful and concerned about their guests safety. Good if you’re passing through or spending the week in the St. Louis area and just need a nice quiet place to stay.
TravelerExcellent little RV park behind a brewery. The Katy trail borders the park for easy access to town. Beautiful views across a large farm field (soy beans when we were here) to the hills beyond with incredible sunsets. Full hookups with both back in and pull through sites. Definitely will come again!

This is more of a "long-term" campground than for any vacationers. We had gone there because we were having work done in O'Fallon on towed vehicle. I would never stay there again! Nor would I recommend it.

We pay $550 a month including utilities. There are a lot of long term setups. Kind owner. Nice little lake(catch and release I believe). Surrounded by nature, lots of grass and trees, great for dog owners. Spacious spots.
Guide
Free, close to highway, simple amenities. So many forest sounds and sparkles of fire bugs. Only two other people here on July 4th weekend. Great pit stop on a cross country or fun long term camp for van life:
Traveler
A state park with FULL Hook-ups! Cuivre River state park is a nice hidden treasure for a weekend getaway from St. Louis. Great trails to hike and a sandy beach to dip in for a quick swim. Did I mention full hook-ups in a state park. It would make a great return place for a weekend in the fall to see the colors as the trees turn. I would highly suggest getting a screen house to enjoy the evenings outdoors to keep the gnats and mosquitos away.
ScoutQuick off of the highway for a late night pit stop while traveling cross country. Would never stay here for a normal camp. The most disgusting setup with sewer and fresh water literally inches from each other at all full hook up sites. Not worth the money for full hook up. I tap out when my fresh water is that close to my sewer hole. Just boondock it for water and sewer and use the power. Like I said perfect to catch some zzzzzzs off of highway but that’s it.
Traveler
Full hookup sites on a mostly paved RV park. Big rigs fit easily. Some small areas of grass and trees with a dog walking area around the perimeter. Small play area for kids. Clean restroom/showers, but only a few of them. The park is in an industrial area so you can hear trains occasionally as well as the METRA rail. Security rolled through frequently. Your gate code can be used for the pool and gym at the casino in addition to the bathroom and laundry area. Overall a nice place to stay close to St. Louis, we would stay here again.
RangerThis RV park works well if you want to stay cheap and take the trolley to all of the wineries. However, If you are lookIng for lush green space and lots of trees this isn’t the place for you. Our Spot ended up beong located on a parking lot that that was turned into RV spots. It has quick access to downtown Hermann and the trolley will pick you up at the park.
Traveler
State park is amazing, floating on the river was peaceful and relaxing. Camping was nice for the price but no full hook ups and lines for the dump stations back up quickly.
TravelerThis campground has a lake you can rent kayaks for. They have a small store at the check in booth. It also has an accessible fishing dock that is covered. The sites for full hook ups are separate from the other sites.
LegendI was here only overnight, so didn't explore at all. Laundry on site. No wifi. Closed on weekends. Full hook up sites. Many of the sites are full time residents. Clean and quiet. $45 night, overpriced for being a side by side experience.
Traveler
This is a really nice campground. The drive into the camping area has beautiful scenery. They offer basic to full hook ups. There are locations that you can hang out on the Meramec River during the day or hike and explore caves. Very well kept and friendly staff.
GuideWe discovered this gym. On our way home. Just needed to stay overnight, but will definitely be back. The little details make it very homey. Sites are well laid out and easy to maneuver. Full hook ups or tent sites are available to meet the needs of the camper. Clean facility and family friendly.
Scout
Driving through the area and needed a place to park and sleep. We didn’t use any of the facilities, but my impression was good! The campground is clean and there are lots of spaces. We had site 30- nice pull through spot with no length issues at all with our 40 ft toy hauler. Prices are super reasonable and full hook ups.
GuidePark was clean, and very pretty. Lots of people, but that is to be expected. Plenty to do in the area including hiking, cool restaurants, swimming in the river etc.
Park was well kept, and felt safe. We stayed at the full hook ups spot and everything worked as it should.
Only negative (if you count this as a negative) was there is no wifi and poor cell phone reception.
Guide
There are few campgrounds with full hook-ups in the Edwardsville, IL area, so we were pleased to find this one. Yes, trains pass 2 blocks away several times nightly, but after the first night you won't notice. During modified car racing season, Friday nights are roaring loud from the racetrack nearby. This last stay in September 2020, we were surprised to see many full spots with residents living full time there. The playground and bounce pad and store were closed due to coronavirus, but the bathrooms and showers were open. Laundry is by appt. only. Not fancy, not quiet, but clean and safe. A bit pricey for the area, but as I said, not many choices there.
LegendThis is another campground that our family has went to for many years. And while there hasn’t been a lot of updates done it is still a nice family friendly campground with pretty much everything that you need and all within an hour of St. Louis. There is everything from Basic campsites all the way up to full hook up RV sites. And with there being literally hundreds of campsites there is usually a good chance that you can find one There is a river access and a day use area in the campground but they are a little challenging to get to.
GuideVery clean and secure overnight park just outside of STL. Phenomenal views of downtown and the arch, and fairly easy access to I-55/64/70. Facilities lacked some amenities (only vending machines, convenience store has shut down), but clean, paved, level sites with full hookups throughout.
TravelerSpot 36. Full hook up — 30/50 electric, water, sewer. Literally located in the middle of the city park, between the community pool, the soccer fields and the baseball diamond. All concrete. Our spot was next to the basketball court. I know this because our not-so courteous neighbors played until the wee hours of the morning. Not every spot has a fire ring, very few picnic tables. There were a few sites kind of separate from the rest that were a little more private- electric only I believe. No attendant was on duty during our stay. Pay is on the honor system by envelope, so cash or check only. On the plus side, the trolley will pick up and drop off here.
LegendI have to preface my review by saying that this isn’t my kind of campground. I like trees and nature around. This park had very little of that. It seems to be new, and there are trees planted, but it will be awhile before they provide any shade. I stopped here because it was the closest location to an RV repair shop that I unfortunately needed to visit on my way to Chicago.
On the plus side, because it’s new the restrooms/showers were very clean and modern. The site I was in had full hook ups. The water pressure was so strong that I could barely open the water pump!
I think the best thing this campground has going for it is it’s location. Proximity to historic St. Charles and the bike trail.
The park host mentioned that the rates would be going up for next season.
