Cooks RV park is small but looks sweet. It is rather close to the road so a little noisy but not to bad. I didn’t see any camping spots form where I was and only about 35-40 RV hook ups, with water and electric. All gravel pull in spots.
Guide
90 RV sites, 87 full hook up sites, 3 power/water. Sites are level gravel, some sites are over 80’ long! Buddy sites available. Easy access to Downtown Eureka Springs via the trolley system. There is a trolley stop onsite. Very clean bathrooms, showers, and laundry. The park is very well kept. The staff is friendly and helpful. Highly recommend Wanderlust RV Park and Cabins
LegendWhen traveling to the Pea Ridge Battlefield I was given the name of this campground by someone in the area to check to see if it accommodated tent campers, they didn't know. I found out in fact they do not! Not only that but they really don't cater to the short term camper, most of the people staying are long term campers.
With that being said, the campground itself has very nice people running it. The office staff was helpful with some information about the area despite not being set up for a camper like myself.
I wouldn't probably advise this RV park itself because it looked like it was in need of an overhaul or some regulations put in place for long term campers to make it have a bit more curb appeal to those passing through.
It was very close to the battlefield itself however.

Nestled on one of the best lakes in Missouri is this clean, family campground. Fairly level sites with quite a few lake sites. Nice boat ramp and swim area. Clean shower houses well located around the camping areas. Only complaint I could find with this location is trying to book an open spot and no full hook up. Loved this camp ground and will come back again.

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.
TravelerNice clean RV park. Full hookups.. could use additional Washing machines and dryers for the number of people here. Reasonable rates for a pull through... We're just staying for two nights, but I would stay here again...
Scout
I have a mostly stock 4Runner. We were able to drive it around on a lot of very light off-road trails. There were many more intense off-road options and challenges though. They have RV hookups there and plenty of places to park and vehicle-camp or to set up a tent. Trails were $35 a day and camping was $15 per person per night.
Guide
This is camping, not an RV park. Gravel roads and uneven RV spots with uneven picnic/fire pit areas. One or two trees between most campsites, but very open. My site had 30 amp electric, water, and sewer. It had cable tv, which I didn’t use. Ask about 50 amp electric. Bathrooms looked clean but they are located by the general store on the way to the river. River was completely wooded with a large dock and moorage. I did not notice laundry facilities. There is a general store, but nobody to help you park. Lots of space, so that wouldn’t be a problem. Do expecting level your rig as most spots are uneven.
While the resort is surrounded by River and trees it’s a short drive into civilization.

The state park is located on Table Rock Lake and offers 2 campgrounds. RV hookups and tent camping available. Each site has a picnic table, fire pit with grill cover and a paved area. Some of the spots are rocky so keep that in mind. There is also a bathhouse, fairly clean. While we were there we went to the Dewey Short Visitor Center which was really neat. There is also some hiking and a playground for the kids! Close to Branson, MO. I would highly recommend a tour of Dogwood Canyons while in the area!
Ranger
We were able to get a spot the same day as our request. RV spots are able to accommodate a 44 foot coach. Gravel parking and level. Good Full hookups. Sprint has strong signal. Also has a RV wash area.
ScoutStayed one night while visiting Springfield. Mostly long term campers. Transient campers are placed near the entrance and close by (about 100 yds) I44. The only meadows are around the outside. All gravel on roads and sites. I do not recommend this place unless loud road noise does not bother you.
Traveler
First, the park is nothing like the picture. The park is basically host to long term residents who work in Branson. James, the manager, was helpful and apologized for the homeless that hang out in and around the park. I would not recommend this park for the traveling RVer who is looking for a camper friendly park.
Scout
We have been coming to this park for years. We did not stay here last couple of years due to the amount of Longterm campers that had trashed the place. The new Owners have really cleaned up the park and gotten rid of so many of the problems that were bringing this once loved park down.
They have since cleaned up the park, gotten rid of the long term campers who were not friendly and were frankly scary. They've implemented security and rules and hired a fantastic manager.
They have brought in new facility, renovated the office and community room and are adding new pads. Added a new community fire pit and bbq area and have cook outs with the guests on weekends. The handful of long term guests who have stayed are extremely friendly and love the changes that have happened.
That is ultimately why we decided to give it another try and we are so glad we did!
So happy to have this once amazing park coming back to life.

Very nice campground staff at check-in. Friendly environment. Great full hook up site and easy to get into. Big rig friendly.

‘‘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.
ScoutCheap 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.
Scout
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.
Legend
When coming to Eureka Springs there are a lot of accommodation options. Best known for their many bed and breakfast options and historic hotels, many tend to gravitate toward those options. However, like always, I was looking for something for those seeking a tent option. I was not supposed to notice more than a few popped up in this destination. I settled on Kettle Campground, a camp which has been a staple in Eureka Springs for years and actually used to be the location my family camped when I was younger.
Upon arriving to Kettle around 5 p.m. offices were closed already for the day, but a board outside the office displayed openings for the evenings alongside camp maps and rules. I found a tent site in the primitive area and made my way to it along gravel roadways.
I noticed a lot of long term campers in RVs at this location alongside overnighters, both options which are made available to those requiring full hook ups. As I neared the tent area I was the only one, coming mid week impacted this I am sure but it made for a quite and pleasant stay on the grounds
Small branches abounded for starter wood for fires and firewood was being sold at the front entrance as well for campfires. As I cleared away small twigs from my tent pad area I noticed the ground was soft enough for my tent stakes yet still a bit rocky.
It was indeed a primitive site in feeling in that it wasn't as even as the rv of hook up sites for tents. The terrain was a bit more rugged and the parking was a bit questionable had I have been there with others as it did not have an exact marked spot.
After assembling my tent, I did a quick walk through of the facilities which included a laundry area, bathhouse, pavilion, pool and recreational area. Many improvements had been made since my younger years camping here. Overall the sites were clean as I walked around. I did notice someone had left the bathhouse women's door open and in going in it appeared a few bugs had come in the night before as bugs do when they see light. Nothing scary or uncommon for a campground but I tend to be a little mindful of other things which could find their way in as well when I notice this, though it appeared all good.
I elected to swim in the pool which has opening hours during daylight. I was undisturbed when doing so by any other campers and despite the pool having highway frontage it did not appear loud.
The next morning when I woke I made it to the office to pay for my site and office staff was incredibly friendly and informative. I noticed a variety of services were available in the office including wifi, trolly tickets and movie rentals.

All in all I give this campground 3 of 5 Bunnies. The main reason for the drop in rating was the campsites being unmarked making it hard to determine parking and actual camp boundaries for tent campers. In addition, the roadway in and out of the tent area was a bit washed out and so it made for a very off road feel versus the other roads throughout being more even, almost as though the single road was an afterthought on maintenance because they do not host as many tent campers.
The overall improvements to the camp were amazing to see and I hope in the future the small
Improvements to the tent area can be attained to create a perfect camping experience for tent campers like myself. The staff made my stay very pleasant and relaxed and the overall experience was a positive one.
Guide
Have stayed here couple of times and only in full hook up. The sites are so very small we can't put out a rug or awning if someone is camping beside us. Have never been in shower house personally but father and brother both said not clean.
GuideWe stayed there with 4 campers total. Nice place to camp. We did not have full hook ups so short walk to shower house that was pretty clean. Nice laundry area as well. Awesome trails with in walking distance from camp. Very busy park but nice and quiet.
Legend
It was rather upsetting to find out that both the recommended sites were not really accommodating to tent campers in this area. Right next to the battlefield this location has very few RV sites, however it was a bit of an upgrade from the other nearby site in way of those passing through. I noticed that the area was more designed for those traveling rather than just the long term campers.
Very close to the battlefield so I would probably recommend this site if you are passing through in an RV and want to spend the night. There is not much else to do in the immediate area however so if you aren't absolutely exhausted try to make it to Rogers nearby.
TIPS:
Scout
Loved, loved, loved staying here! Hosts were gracious and easy to work with. Location is great for all the outdoor activities and is close to the fun in Branson. Edgewater has all the amenities you could want; great views, a lake to fish, swim, or boat in, a pool and a playground. We stayed in our RV and found the sites to be level, clean, and private. They are nestled by the lake with a privacy fence separating the spacious sites. Each site is full hook-up (back-in) with no obstructions. Each site came with their own newly constructed fire pit and picnic table. Our stay was lengthy and the pricing fair. Our family will definitely be back!
ScoutThe Cooper Creek resort is a clean campground on the shore of Lake Taneycomo close to all the Branson activities including the Branson Landing. All the sites are full hook up and full of trees. We stayed in March and the resort was pretty empty and very quiet. Very good military discount. This is the second time staying and will definitely return again.
Ranger
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.
ScoutWas visiting my dad who stays in the park recently as a long term guest and have to say that they have done a lot the last few months under new management.
My dad's neighbors were not the nicest people and they had two large dogs they allowed to crap everywhere and would never clean up their area.
There were multiple complaints about the problem to the previous owners and nothing was done.
The new owners came in, in December and quickly cleared out the problem guests made everyone clean everything up and made the place back to its former glory.
They have also made it a point to personally know my elderly father and keep an eye on him for us so we know he is safe and being looked after while he enjoys the park with his dog.
They have made sure that the spaces are clean. Got rid of the unsafe guests who decided to take the place over and have made it a safe beautiful spot to stay once again!
So thankful they purchased the park and made it a safe and wonderful spot for the family to visit and a wonderful spot for my dad to enjoy his time.
Can't thank them enough!
Traveler
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.
