"We arrived around 8 pm and even though the office was getting ready to close, the woman behind the counter was very kind and helpful. She helped us with finding our spot and with getting firewood."
"Small park.sites are right next to each other. Picnic tables and fire pits are on site gravel. All roads are narrow one way with the dumpstation at the back end of park with trash dumpsters there."
$25 - $30 / night
"The park is huge and takes you along an hour long historic trail that has old settlements, ruins of workshops and beautiful view-points of the Missouri river from the bluff edges."
"We pulled up as you literally drive through a bunch of open farmlands to get here and it was almost a little spooky because we did not see anyone."
$30 / night
"The Missouri River is right there, you can take trails to get there or drink be. The Indian Cave is along the river. Not my belief it’s a real cave but there is a historical aspect to it."
"The park also has a store, a museum, horseshoe pits, archery, trails, and boating on the Missouri river. There is a cemetary and an old restored town."
"Lake Mozingo is near the College Town of Maryville, Missouri. My experience is limited, but I’d say it’s pretty nice here. And inexpensive."
"Nice sites close to the lake with electricity water and wifi."
$39 / night
"We stayed at camp area 3 which is way more wooded and deep inside the conservation area with access to the river right on the site."
"Just spent the night here on our drive through to KY.
Seems there are lots of things you can do while here, besides camping: fishing, birding, hiking & horseback riding."
"There is a lake/ river at the edge of the property with fish, plenty of frogs and I even saw a beaver or otter swimming across it. You can fish but it is catch and release."
"The only reason it isn't getting 5 stars is the proximity to the freeway, you can hear it very clearly (jake brakes and all) continuously."
$15 / night
"Loved that the tent camping sites were actually surrounded by trees, I see way to many tent campsites that are basically just in the middle of a grass field."
"But there are actually two locations to camp there are multiple camp spots near the entrance, and also more if you drive down to the boat ramp, there are a few around there also."
TravelerWe're the only ones camping here. Some people come to fish during the day but it's dead at night. Clean pit toilets. Will definitely be back.
TravelerBucolic setting on a lake. Pit toilet and not much else in amenities, but a VERY pleasant place to spend a night!
GuideWe arrived on Sunday at 3:30 pm & office closed. Booked online which stated campground would assign spot. No one around & placed 2 calls unanswered. Selected a spot, spent night & left in AM. Campground needs work.
Scout$5 for a tent, water, shower and electricity to recharge devices. Perfect amenities for bikepacking.
TravelerNice little camp spots. No amenities available. But there are actually two locations to camp there are multiple camp spots near the entrance, and also more if you drive down to the boat ramp, there are a few around there also.
GuideSimple sites, no shade trees in the camping area but it is very close to the water. If you are looking to just do a simple one nighter or fish it will do.
TravelerWas confused at first because there was a private road sign near the turn off, but after some looking it does look like it’s a legit spot to camp. Good enough for a place to lay your head at least. I used a pickup truck with a tent and nobody bothered me. I did hear animals huffing and saw some shadows run next to the truck at like 2am haha.
GuideA good spot if you are not interested in a busy campground. This is a beautiful wooded conservation area. Some of the sites to the front of the property are pretty standard and more open with some metal fire pits and tables. We stayed at camp area 3 which is way more wooded and deep inside the conservation area with access to the river right on the site. This site did not have a metal fire ring or table but there was a rock ring. One problem I did find was that GPS directions wanted us to take access roads through the conservation area to get to the spot but some of them were closed so we had to take an alternate route in by going around the area. We just stayed for 1 night but did not see another person the entire time we were there.
TravelerWe stayed here so that we would be within walking distance of Brownville. It took a while to figure out how to make a reservation (you call the River Inn Resort). When I made the reservation, I was told there is no electricity, which is fine since we have solar. However, we were not told there are no tables, or fire rings... there pretty much isn't anything other than land. The land that is there is pretty rough as well. There were very large burs of some sort throughout the grassy areas, which made it difficult for our dog to go anywhere during our trip. There were also an unbelievable amount of gnats, but that is probably due to the proximity to the river. The people at the River Inn Resort, where you check in, were friendly and helpful. However, we would not stay here again.
