Cedar Ridge is located on Stockton Lake in the scenic Ozark Mountains of southwestern Missouri. The lake and surrounding landscape offer countless recreational opportunities along nearly 300 miles of shoreline, providing visitors with many ways to explore one of the most sought-after natural areas in the state. Fishing, hunting, camping, sailing, boating and scuba diving are popular activities.
Boating is a popular pastime at the lake. Sailing is especially popular and the lake hosts several races each year. The campground provides two boat ramps for easy access to the water. A swimming beach and an accessible fishing dock are also on-site. The waters of Stockton Lake are home to several species of fish including small and largemouth bass, crappie, white bass, walleye, catfish and sunfish, making it an ideal destination for anglers.
The land surrounding the lake contains hundreds of acres of native prairie grasses, rolling hills and thick forests that turn crimson in autumn. An abundance of wildlife lives around the water, including wild turkey, Great Blue heron, deer and Bald eagles. Visitors can learn about the lake's Bald eagles at the area's annual eagle-watching event hosted each winter.
Three full-service marinas are located around the lake, offering a wide range of services and supplies, including boat rentals, fuel, fishing tackle and restaurants.
$14 - $24 / night

A trout fisher dream, as one of Missouri’s 5 hacherys are here. Fun for this kids to see the amazing amount of fish. Due to rain I didn’t have the opportunity to hit any of the trails, but there are several that vary in length and difficulty.
GuideThis is a nice campground. But not if you’re looking to get away from people and get deep into nature. This is mostly a fishing campground. Not a lot to do in the area. Campground is still nice, just close to city and not as nice as other areas in Missouri

I wish there were more secluded spots, but altogether a great place. There are miles of mountain biking trails which can be hard to find in Missouri, especially at state parks. Next time, we are hoping to get a spot with more trees and shade. The marina has a great shop In case you ran out of marshmellows or sunscreen and also has a small restaurant attached. Boat slips are also available. You can even rent pontoons or jet skis. There is also a water trail for canoes and kayaks, which are also available for rent.
LegendThis state park is one worth a stop when near Springfield. I drove north toward this park to enjoy something a bit different and found it to be very peaceful during a weekday.
I had traveled here following a busy time and expected to still have some of that lingering noise which hangs out after a big event. But by the time I reached the location it had dwindled out. Leaving behind in the peaceful outdoors were shaded sites that were well placed but slightly trashed. That isn’t the fault of the park but rather of the people who did not pick up after themselves.
After a little tidying of my site, I was home for the night in a nice tent site. I took a tour of the grounds and noticed that the showers were nice, the water was great in pressure and hot!! Restrooms were well maintained and even after the weekend they had already done their maintenance and had them looking very nice!!
Something else to note when traveling is cell service. With AT&T I had 3 bars of service, something which I was very uncertain of after driving to the location had been spotty in some areas.
The campground runs alongside a waterway and it was nice to enjoy around dusk the sounds of the water. I would have taken a dip in it had I not arrived so late in the evening, it looked so perfect for just dipping the toes in. Also I could see this being a great place to launch a small boat or kayak.
Nearby camp is one of the larger hatcheries in the state which you can visit during certain hours and see how they work to diligently populate the waterways and lakes in Missouri, pretty cool process and information. Definitely recommend!!
LegendAfter one visit, this became one of my favorite state parks. This is one of Missouri’s’ “trout parks” with a hatchery and release sites so fishing (which actually becomes catching) is a big draw. Bennett Spring is so serious about their fishing they even have a trout cam so you can watch other anglers testing their skills.
When we pulled into the campground and picked out a super sweet paved full hook-up site we let out a sigh of approval and knew we were going to really like it there for a few days. The park has 143 campsites comprised of five loops so there are a wide variety of camping options, from basic to sewer/electric/water sites with some being reserveable to first come, first serve. There are wooded sites and those in the open where you are close enough to the fishing action to watch anglers from your RV. In addition to camping, there are 65 other lodging units which are cabins, duplex/fourplexes, and motel rooms.
We came to camp, fish, and hike but there is also canoeing, floating, a nature center and museum, trout hatchery, dining facilities, a church, Olympic-size swimming pool, and much more. When I wasn’t wading in the water with a wet line, we were walking through the woods. The park has over twenty miles of hiking trails meandering through its 3,216 acres. Trails range from a leisurely walk along the stream to that of rigorous mountain trails that reward hikers with great picturesque views of the Ozark Mountains. Guided ranger-led tours are also available for those wanting a little more information on your walk. The camp store is quite large with everything from food to souvenirs. For Anglers this is where you get your fishing permit and advice on the best lures to use (of which they have a large selection).
One aspect of this park that is so appealing is the historical character that came from the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) improvements made back in the 1930’s. They built a dam, arched bridge, cabins and shelters, dining lodge, roads, and trails. The CCC influence is obvious when looking at the dining lodge with its stone and wood exterior and post and beam interior that stands the test of time and emits rustic charm. The dining lodge still performs its original function and is popular among visitors (especially those who want to have their freshly-caught trout prepared for them).

Some state parks are remote and have a quiet and tranquil feel. This park has a lot going on so that is probably not the case in the busy summer season. When we were there in early April the park’s campgrounds were pretty empty and quiet and while we really liked that we also liked that there was a lot to do. Our three days passed quickly and we would definitely come back.
TravelerCampground 1... very nice with water, sewer, and electric. Water on April 15. Nice level spots, but very little shade in Campground 1. Reserve early as it fills up fast!
ScoutGreat walking trails, clean campgrounds and the smells of fish fry in the evening air.
TravelerOne of my fav state parks. Stayed for the weekend. Clean. Comfy. Fishing. Couldn't get any better. Relax and enjoy :)
TravelerI grew up coming to this park. It’s got something for everyone. Trout fishing, hiking trails, nature center, swimming pool and there is floating just outside of the park. Hot showers, restrooms and electrical hookups are just a few of the camping basics
GuideWe camp here several times a year. Beautiful park. Decent amenities, nice staff. Park has a pool open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Several different campgrounds offer a variety. Primarily a trout fisherman's paradise the park offers plenty for the family. Wonderful hiking trails, a restaurant, and the above mentioned pool keep everyone entertained. I originally reviewed this park as having terrible restrooms. However we pulled in this weekend to find out they are being completely restored.
ScoutBennett Springs is my favorite place to camp. We always go for kids weekend.
GuideWe went there for opening day 2018!!
GuideWe love staying here! Right next to the Niangua River for floating and trout fishing.
Sites are pretty level, require little work and full hook ups are available.
GuideGreat trout fishing including handicapped access for fishing. Limited full hookups for campers but also has cabins for rent
Scoutwe stayed at campground 4, the site itself had a lot of poison ivy leaving us to just explore the paved areas. The bathrooms and showers had not been cleaned in a long time but had hot/cold water and soap in the bathroom. There was no playground on our site but plenty of bike riding. We enjoyed the trout fishing, ice cream in the park store, nature center, and programs they put on. Might not return but still a fun weekend.
RangerLove the fishing, wish it was more secluded and less crowded.
GuideWe had a great time fishing, canoeing and relaxing. Well maintained area.
ScoutCampground is generally clean and well-kept. Price is definitely reasonable and the bathroom at campground 5 is VERY nice, running water and hot showers.
GuideGreat selection of campgrounds. Most located right off the Niangua River. The fishing is fantastic, great Trout hatchery. If fishing isn't for you, there are also quite a few trails and boating options.
RangerVisit was great. Went trout fishing and canoeing down the river. Several campgrounds some are up step hills but level once on top.
TravelerYhis place is beautiful and.there.and numbers of things for the entire family to enjoy!
ScoutLots of fun and beautiful
ScoutWe stayed 4 nights prior to the water being activated 4/15/19. Full sites are nicely paved. Showers were ok. Wifi adequate to operate a blink camera. Trout fishing was excellent
TravelerGreat place to take the family. The roads are all paved so it made biking for our kids easy and enjoyable. The campsite was spacious and shaded. The kids loved playing in the creek and hiking the trails. It’s a good spot to go trout fishing as well!
GuideWonderful campsite!!! We had the best time at this campground! Easy access to the bathrooms, which were very clean. You are pretty close to your neighbor but the trees all around the campsites give you all the privacy you could want! Can’t wait to go back!!
ScoutWife and I decided to start camping again after a 10 yr layoff, So after a few equipment upgrades we made our reservation and we went last week. Tent site was nice and shower rooms are clean and nice as well.
TravelerLove this campground but site 202 not a great site for a camper. Not the easiest site to level a camper. What a great weekend fishing and camping though.
