    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.

    Berry-good Time

    Found this place on a whim through Missouri. Was looking for dispersed camping and not much popped up in the area. So campgrounds were next up.

    This place already had a few good reviews, so I called them up. Immediately knew this was going to be the place. Super nice folks, clear communication, and even showed us the grounds upon arrival.

    Lots of amenities for just staying a single night. Everything you need and want in a campground, but not a KOA or Yogi packed site.

    Overall 5/5, cheap, friendly, abundance of things to do, and quiet (when I stayed).

    P.S. Depending on which site you choose… the cost varies, but still cheap. There is lighting, power outlets, tables, fire rings and outdoor grill, along with many other fun child-friendly things.

    This camp ground is a little hidden gem and so pretty! It has running water bathroom and showers! They are so kind and aware. They make shuttling your personal watercraft SO easy! This camp are is very clean and family friendly! The river was pretty!

    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.

    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.

    Outrageous price for boat slips!

    I didn't stay in the campground,  I stayed at the hotel. The rooms are comfortable and clean. 

    I wanted to comment on the price for boat slips at the marina. Charging $40.00 a night for a slip is outrageous. It is also bad business practice to price yourself out of money. If they were only $20.00 you would have made $320.00 this weekend from our Bass club. It is not that inconvenient for us to put in and out at the ramp instead. THINK ABOUT IT!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Secret Paradise!!!

    Our little family of 2 humans & 3 dogs had THE BEST first stop in our adventures. We are terrible planners but The B Berry Farm welcomed us late at night and last minute. The whole B Berry family are great people. They helped us get in and told us all the fun & exciting things around the farm to do. The clubhouse is so convenient for any camper with supplies, games, lawn chairs to watch the sunset! Even if you aren’t going to see the lakes around (we didn’t) there is plenty to entertain you right on the Farm. There is an abundance of wildflowers, walking trails, chill zones, a water park, outdoor solar shower, bugs, a friggin Berry field. WITH PINK BLUEBERRIES!!!! They taste like cotton candy — you have to ask about them. There’s a store of goodies that we bought from on the website; we got some Mint Tea, chapsticks, massage oil, soaps, and deodorant because we’re total hippies and won’t wear store bought —- all smell AMAZING and taste AMAZING and feel AMAZING. Highly recommend. The weather was beautiful the whole time; bees buzzing, grasshoppers that look like a hybrid of butterfly’s, butterflies that fly in wolf packs. We left full hearted, happy bellied, and so thankful for The B Berry Family.

    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

    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.

    Stay here!!

    This was a wonderful stay! We stayed one night, passing through. We called ahead of time and they directed us to the site and said they would be by later to pick up payment. It’s $20 a night and they have water and electricity. They offer a military discount! The sites were clean, quiet and cozy. BEAUTIFUL view. Off the highway, so good access but the noise wasn’t that bad at night. Fire pit and picnic table there. Stars were lovely at night. Owners were so nice! Our dog Lilly went and had a great time so dog friendly. Come here to relax, especially if you don’t want to stay at a big RV park.
