  Bennett Spring State Park Campground

  Peaceful win ter camping in campground 1

  This is the third time staying here. This time wife and I took our small camper just to get away for the weekend. We stayed in campground one because it is the only one open during the off season. You can make reservations online before going to ensure you have the spot you want. Campground one is in a flat spot down by the water and it is actually rather open and built for large rigs to fit in. If it was full I imagine it would be crowded and not much privacy but because we went in the winter there was only four other campsites taken. We were surprised when we found that there was Wi-Fi available for free at the campground. One negative is we only found one toilet for the entire campground. It wasn't a problem at this time because there was hardly anybody there, but I imagine if you wanted to use the toilet during the regular season you would find yourself with a line or going somewhere else.

  Bennett Spring State Park Campground

  Beautiful area with lots of camping spotsis

  This is a beautiful area with a lot of camping spots. Campground 1 is down by the water and really meant for the big rigs. Most of the other campgrounds (5 total) also have plenty of space to spread out. We saw plenty of 5th wheels up in the other campgrounds. Many had electric, though don't think many have water. Which is fine for a long weeked or something - just fill up the freshwater before heading out. 

  Of course if you like fishing this is a wonderful place. Not my thing, but I enjoyed people watching.

  Lake of the Ozarks Recreation Area

  Very quiet, very pretty, several issues.

  Asked for a lake view cabin. We were the only ones here since it was a weekday after labor day so all cabins were open. I go to check in and it's a long sidewalk between narrow rails. Not at all easy if you are disabled and with my COPD, I had to stop several times. 

  I get cabin 6. If you go here DO NOT GET CABIN 6. It's the only one you can't park in front of as it's down the side of a hill. You must traverse several levels of steps down a steep grade. The office hours are over by now so I hauled what we needed down. 

  The lake view was somewhere past the forest so I'll take their word on that.

  The refrigerator was filthy and we had no hot water. Since it was after hours all we could do is clean the fridge, make supper and wait till 9 in the morning to call maintenance. 

  Maintenance arrives and determine the elements are bad. At about 10:30am they started working. Spent most of our only full day watching them fix the water heater. The maintenance guys were very nice but I'm not leaving my stuff with strangers. 

  So basically, I spent $200 to sit on a deck with acorns falling on us or on the world's most uncomfortable couch as they worked on getting me hot water. Early morning fishing was shot.

  They did say we could now switch cabins but I would need to move our stuff back up Mt Fk-That just to move it again into the new cabin, then back out again tomorrow. 

  It is a lovely area and the people are friendly but they need to do better. Also, warn people that cabin 6 is more cliff side than lake side.

  Lake Ozark RV Park & Campground

  Ok

  During our stay at the campground, we found several positive aspects. The pricing was reasonable, the staff was friendly, and the pool was cute. The bathrooms and showers were clean, and the overall environment was pretty quiet and well lit. Additionally, our site was mostly level. However, there were also some drawbacks to our experience. The pond on the property was essentially a large ditch with standing water, which attracted bugs. The distance from our spot to the bath house was quite far, and we were disappointed by the lack of a clear view of the river. While the campground may be enjoyable for longer stays, we found it to be nothing special for a one-night stop during our travels. NOTE- I don’t think the contact info on this listing is correct.

  Osage Campground Retreat

  Cute Little Camping Spot

  Good: It was clean and tidy, had ice and firewood for sale, was close to the boat ramp for the Osage River, and the bathrooms looked to be newly remodeled. Good shaded and flat spot for our tent.

  Bad: No one on-site, no TP, no paper towels, no internet (Other campers said it had been working until the power went out during a storm a few days before; when the power was restored, the internet didn't come back)

  Conclusion: For $44.29/night, I would keep going next time.

  Turkey Creek RV Park

  Awesome location for visiting Branson

  The campground was quiet and low key. No internet available so bring your own or purchase WiFi from their system. Shower house was ok, the smell made me dry heave, smelled like old meat. Small fenced area for dogs to play / go to the bathroom in. No playground for kids. Our site was level, it stormed during our stay but staff was quick to clean up downed trees and regrade the roads. The location was perfect for visiting Branson and its attractions. I got the vibe that it was more of an older generation camping campsite with more long time campers. We’d go back and stay if our focus was the attractions at Branson, not to hangout at the campsite.

  Nice area

  My family used to stay here every year. Owners are just not very friendly. You get told 2 different prices over the phone compared to when you get there. Overall is a nice camp ground pretty quiet. Pretty river.

  Doolittle Acres RV Park and Campground

  Rolla, MO

  Very small park but easily navigable. We had a great spot, for our 42’ motorhome and truck. It was a pull through and easy to get into. It’s close to US 44 so a bit of road noise. The owner was very friendly and gave us a map with perfect directions. Told us about the amenities and said if we needed anything to just yell. ☺️ We didn’t leave once we rolled in til morning due to pouring down rain. Would recommend!!

  Froggys River Resort

  By far my favorite!

  The manager/owner went above and beyond. We called and said we would be there at around 6:30 (the office closed at 6) and arrived a little later than that. He was waiting for us. 

  We got a spot down by the river, started a fire, had dinner and went to sleep to the sound of the river running. The place is beautiful and I wish I had more time to spend there. I will definitely be going back when I can spend three of four nights.

  Wild Turkey Ridge — Harry S Truman State Park

  In The Thick of Nature, Great Tent Camping Off Season

  We came just at the start of season, so we took advantage of a family spot to relax and get some extra privacy. There were maybe 5 other campers in Wild Ridge, and it was a ridge coming in, narrow roads leading into the peninsula.

  Vault toilets were well kept, and well light at night.

  We hiked to check out the other campsites that were also well spaced for privacy.

  There was a desire line down to the lake, with a rocky shore to walk, the beaches themselves a bit wider.

  We had a nice clearing to set up at our location, likely used for a second tent that lended well to privacy.

  If you like Roaches 🪳 this is the place to stay.

  We have infested cabin number 3 outpost. Crawling on our food children in our beds and biting our family. I was disappointed. And  shock. With conditions and attitude of the state park. Read correspondence. Beware.

  Overall quite and clean

  We called because we were just on the road and I could hear the lady in the background yelling at the camp host I was talking with. She was being very rude. We reserved a site and only gave us 2 options. Web said 20.00 to camp FHU. They also charge 10.00 a person so plan on spending around $50.00 a night. Doubt we will be back. Just not worth that.

  Riveria Villas & RV Resort

  Lake views, clean quiet park.

  Camp is clean, and very quiet. WiFi works okay.

  Best part of this park is you can see the lake from many of the campsites, and the pool. The pool area sits on top of a bluff overlooking the lake. It’s absolutely beautiful. The pool area also has a very nice cabana, firepit, and bathrooms. I was VERY impressed with it.

  Only downside of this campsite is the website seems sketchy and is hard to use. The campground itself can only be booked through the campsite and there is a 3 night minimum stay.

  I will definitely be back here. If you are looking for a “luxury” campsite this place cannot be beat.

  Lake Ozarks RV Resort

  Clean campground, close to many attractions

  This campground is clean, and is close to many attractions near the Lake of the Ozarks.

  Wifi is spotty, but my site was at the back of the campground. The campsite also has a new in ground pool and dog park.

  Reason I gave this campsite 3 stars is because it is clearly still under construction (6/30/23), which I was not aware of. My guess is this was the first season it was open. Half of the park still had conex boxes and construction equipment around. The dog park had little grass and was very rocky.

  The owners were VERY nice and accommodating.

  If I were to return next year in 2024 I have no doubt I would have given this campsite 4 or 5 stars

  Lake of the Ozarks State Park Campground

  First camping experience

  I didn’t know what to do, what to pack, what to bring. I just brought a small 1 person tent and realized I needed an air mattress. I was right on the water and had an amazing, breath taking view when I woke up. The petiole worked with me on being late to the site. They have both showers and running water restrooms as well as not running water restrooms. They have a nice gift shop also.

  Great Route 66 stop

  The camp area looks new, cute playground, small fenced dog park type area, showers, laundry, fire pits and picnic tables. Very little trees or grass. Would love it if they played up the Route 66 theme they have going. Very convenient for our fishing trip!
