GuideWe stayed one night. We were the only ones there. right off I-70 but far enough away to not hear the traffic. Only 1 spot with a fire ring. One car drove in and out around 10 but that was it. It was extremely muddy. We heard animals all night from frogs to coyotes. Overall rated a 3 for the mud.
ScoutLove this spot chill nice view at deck nice people deff recommend 👌
LegendThis was a beautiful campground with lots to do: biking, kayaking, paddle boarding, hiking, swimming. Lots of deer to watch at dusk in the park. Loved to trees here.
LegendPerfect spot for the trout fisher. Has full hook ups down to primative camping. Rental cabins and a full restaurant and store on site. Fishing hatchery to look at and lots of hiking.
TravelerThe area is so nice and peaceful we decided to come back out. We tent camped in a new spot that hasn’t been used lately so we run into a ton of ticks and chiggers, it was annoying but nothing bug spray with 40% deet definitely helped.
Since it was the weekend all the good spots were taken but we still had a good time with a nice view.
ScoutThe campground is nice with a super clean bathroom and shower facility. They have a nice swimming pool. There is also a boat ramp of you are looking for that. Friendly people and super clean place
TravelerJust one look around and we spontaneously decided to camp that night to check out the area. Amazingly beautiful and well maintained campgrounds near the Lake of The Ozarks just for military families, count me in. Area is easy to navigate with bathroom facilities, playground and pavilion with grills, plenty of fishing spots, tons of rv, cabins and tent campsites. You can also rent boats, jet skis, and other outdoor gear at the admin office. We took a tent campsite toward the back of the park with beautiful lakes views and a little private beach. We cannot wait to come back to hang out longer.
TravelerFirst time out in my new to me Rubicon 1400bh. Loved this location (lot70). Spacious and not too close to any other spots. Short walk down to the water. Easy in and out with water available.
