    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Campgrounds near St. Ann, Missouri range from full-hookup RV parks to tent camping at state parks, with most options clustering along major waterways within a 30-minute drive of the city. St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park offers full-hookup RV sites, tent camping areas, and cabin accommodations with lakefront views, while Cahokia RV Parque provides both RV and cabin options just across the Mississippi River in Illinois. The camping landscape includes a mix of city-managed recreation areas, state parks like Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial State Park, and private campgrounds catering primarily to RV travelers seeking proximity to St. Louis attractions.

    Many campgrounds in the St. Ann area experience seasonal flooding issues, particularly those near the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park was closed for much of summer 2019 due to flooding, though the city has since improved drainage and facilities. Most developed campgrounds require reservations, especially during summer weekends when sites fill quickly. The region's proximity to St. Louis International Airport means some campgrounds experience aircraft noise, particularly those in St. Charles County. Railroad noise affects several sites as well, with one camper noting: "It is near a highway, there's a railroad bridge right next to it, and it is under the airport flight path. The planes and trains stopped after about 10-11pm I think."

    Campers consistently mention the convenient location of area campgrounds for exploring St. Louis attractions while maintaining access to outdoor recreation. The Katy Trail provides a popular cycling route accessible from several campgrounds, including Sundermeier RV Park where "you can literally be parked right at the Katy Trail." Urban campgrounds like Cahokia RV Parque receive positive reviews for their proximity to downtown St. Louis, with one visitor noting it's "a centrally located campground in the Metro St. Louis area... close to interstates and a short drive across the river to Missouri attractions." Most mixed-use campgrounds provide concrete pads for RVs, while tent camping is more limited, primarily available at state parks like Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial State Park where sites are described as "quiet and spacious" despite proximity to the metropolitan area.

      St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park

      Our Recommended Campground for Visiting the St. Louis Area

      This campground was easy to find, as both our GPS and the campground signs led us right to the city park and campground entrance. Check-in begins at 2:00 p.m., but we called ahead and were graciously allowed to arrive an hour early. We checked in and proceeded to back-in Site 426 with full hookups. As the last site in the campground, the curve in the road made for an exceptionally easy back-in. The concrete pad easily accommodated our 40-foot toy hauler and F-450, with utilities conveniently located near the center of the site and no issues connecting two sewer hoses. Water pressure was adequate, and the 50-amp electric performed flawlessly. The campground's four loops have mostly younger trees, so satellite reception should not be a problem in most sites. Although we brought our Starlink, we used our T-Mobile Home Internet instead, averaging 217 Mbps download and 21.5 Mbps upload. The campground information sheet mentioned Wi-Fi, but we never saw a network to join and didn't inquire further since our internet worked well. We received three bars on Verizon and two bars on T-Mobile. The campground has a nice fenced dog park that's large enough to actually throw a ball, plus a paved walking and biking trail that circles the lake. The office also sells ice and firewood, and the dump station is located behind the office. Many sites offer lake views, and the RV sites are generally well spaced. We noticed Loop 100 has all concrete pads, the first two rows of Loop 200 are concrete with the remaining sites primarily gravel except for some end sites, Loop 300 is reserved for primitive camping and tents, and Loop 400 has a mix of concrete and gravel sites. The center rows of the RV loops are pull-throughs. One thing to be aware of is that the campground has begun charging short-term campers for electricity. We weren't informed about it during check-in, although our traveling companions were shown how to monitor their usage online. The information sheet we received only referenced weekly and monthly electric charges. Even with hot weather and occasionally running three air conditioners during our three-day stay, our electric charge was only about $14. We departed without stopping at the office and received a checkout email about an hour after the noon checkout time. The St. Louis area is our home base, and in our opinion, this is the best RV park in the area and the one we most often recommend to our RV friends.

      Klondike Park

      Outdoor Family Fun

      My family and I really enjoyed being at Klondike Park Camping. I can't really find anything I didn't like about this place. The camp sites were clean and well maintained, there are bathrooms not to far to get to and a camp kitchen where you can do dishes and cook if needed. I love the off grid feeling of being in the outdoors but when you have children it is nice knowing you have these luxurious not far from your camp site. I also love how easy it is to navigate around Klondike. I never got lost once I figured out the layout. My family and I can't wait until our next adventure at Klondike and we stayed at site 25 if anyone is wondering about the perfect site to camp.

      Scott AFB FamCamp

      No frills

      BL, the camp could use a Camp Host or Mayor. Stayed 1 night. We used the bathhouse and walked the grounds- so did a lot of other people; especially in the morning up to lunch. Quiet camp -Aircraft noise held off until 08:00 (bonus). Men’s shower side had great water pressure and temp- water fixtures were dated, dirty and temperamental (2 shower heads-1 working) also, cozy up to your multi-legged friends (spider webs and bugs were in competition for our shower space), Laundry is $1.50/wash&dry. I’ve stayed at a good many FamCamps: Lake Martin Rec -AL Uchee Creek-GA Destin Army Inf CTR-FL Robins AFB FamCamp-GA Round Pond -NY Kings Creek-VA Ellsworth AFB-SD Blue Angel Rec-FL Anniston Army Depot-AL Sigsbee-FL That’s my starter list! So, I’d like to see this one level up. It’s in a good area (we come through every couple years) and I think it could get a few more interested in it, if it were managed just a little bit better.

      St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park

      Great price for what you get!

      Full hook up. Lovely lake. Great paved path. Sites are level. Landscaping is amazing. My only issue is no shade trees. Where else are you getting full hook up with all of these activities for this price?

      Dr. Edmond Babler State Park

      Great location, no privacy.

      The location to St. Louis is great, and the utility hookups for RV were convenient, but there was ZERO privacy at the sites and hiking trail were extremely limited. Great coverage for Verizon and Starlink.

      Love it!

      This is the perfect, little spot to set up. The owners are sweet, and have been helpful with everything we have needed and beyond. We definitely would love to come back.

      Incredible

      Beautiful grounds. Paved level sites. Great path around the lake. Wish there were trees

    Guide to St. Ann

Most campgrounds in this area experience hot, humid summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F between June and August.

    What to do

    Kayaking on man-made lakes: St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park offers kayak rentals and a 3-mile paved trail around the water. "This is a great place to kayak and camp if you don't want to drive that fare and live in the city," notes one camper who enjoys "watching the sunsets" from the shore.

    Historic exploration in St. Charles: Just 20 minutes from St. Ann, Sundermeier RV Park connects directly to historic districts via trail access. "Through the gate at the rear of the campground, and you can bike for miles. Easy ride in to St. Charles a wonderful historic river town on the Missouri River," explains one visitor.

    Hiking woodland trails: About 30 minutes west of St. Ann, Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial State Park Campground offers hiking trails with moderate elevation changes. While one reviewer notes the trails are "not too long but can be challenging for small kids," another appreciates how "you wouldn't know you were that close to a big city" while exploring the park's "lush, green trails."

    What campers like

    Security features: Several campgrounds near St. Ann prioritize security. At Draft Kings at Casino Queen RV Park, campers appreciate that "security rolled through frequently" and "you need a code to get in the gate, so you must register in advance."

    Recreational facilities: St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park maintains extensive recreation options beyond just camping.

    Limited tent camping options: While RV sites dominate the area, tent campers have fewer choices. At St. Peters' 370 Lakeside Park, one camper explains: "Since they opened the campground, most of their campers have been RV owners, and so it is really designed for the RV camper.
