Advance reservations are highly recommended, especially during football season when Cottonwoods fills quickly with Tigers fans. Most RV parks in the region maintain year-round operation, though seasonal closures affect some facilities like Hermann City RV Park, which operates only from April through November. According to one camper, "Sites are pretty level and WiFi is good. Contactless checkin is a bit confusing from map provided." Many parks offer amenities including laundry facilities, shower houses, and dump stations, though distances to these facilities vary by location. Pets are welcome at most parks, but restrictions apply at Cedar Creek. Access roads to several parks include unpaved sections, with at least one visitor reporting significant dust accumulation on their vehicle and RV when traveling over gravel entrance roads.
