  Mussel Fork Conservation Area

  Overnight stop

  Had a great stealth camping experience here. Road was gravelled all the way down and opened up to a big gravel lot. I could tell there were a few other paths I could take but the grass was a little overgrown and it was already dark out, so I just car camped in the gravel lot. Had no issues and didn’t see or hear anyone else!

  A Country Charm RV Park

  A beautiful small little park

  Easy check in if you have made online reservations. Very well taken care of and clean. Great spot to visit the quilting stores here.

  Dockery Park

  Almost free camping

  Stayed here for several days. Wonderful facility on the edge of Gallatin. Stores and gas just a mile away. A duck was the only full time resident of the park. We got several visits from the local residents. They were delightful. We were informed that the park and rec district has a recommended fee of $35/night. However, the city says it's a donation. So if you stay there and don't make a donation, that is between you and your conscience.

  Peaceful and clean

  Stayed here overnight and the camphor was very friendly and helped us out. Bathrooms and showers were open, super clean. Peaceful and would definitely stay again to venture into the town

  Long Branch State Park Campground

  Great Walk-In Campgrounds

  The walk-in campgrounds (it's about a 50 foot walk from the parking lot to each site) at Long Branch are located off in their own little area at the shore of the lake that offers some pretty good isolation. Although we went at a time when the water was still shut off, there are bathrooms and water available via a very short walk from the walk-in sites April 1-Oct 31. The sites are each very spacious with flat areas and material already laid out for pitching a tent and plenty of trees for throwing up a hammock. Although firewood was stated to be available year round from the vending machine, it was locked up when we went through, but there is a convenience store right across the highway from the lake that sells wood bundles and anything else you might need.

  We really enjoyed our time here and we'll definitely be coming back in the warmer months to enjoy some swimming and boating.

  Stump Island Park

  Full hookups, but no showers or bathroom

  If your camper has everything you need, it's a good campground. The website says it's 50 amp only, but it has 30 too. When we stayed there in March 2024, the shower/bathroom was locked. No park management came by our site, and when you call to get information, you get city hall telling you you need to call some other number...that they didn't have. So, everything's up to you.

  Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground — Arrow Rock State Historic Site

  Quiet for Labor Day Weekend

  Park was full. We could only book a basic site (no hook-ups) through the website but the camp host easily upgraded us to a vacant electric site. Great park to bring your dogs! The walk or drive to the historic town literally park of the park was a surprise with a couple of hiking paths making each trip different from the first.

  Pershing State Park Campground

  Busy but Nice

  You can reserve online or with an attendant on site! Spots are small but all shaded. A raccoon ended up tearing through our trash but that was the only negative here! Take the last spot on the loop for extra privacy and to be close to the restrooms.

  Long Branch State Park Campground

  Summer fun

  I reserved a walk in site and it was totally worth it. It’s a very short walk into the site, it’s even visible from the parking lot. The site is right on the water with beach access so there’s no need to drive to the crowded beach area to swim! This site had lots of space and was spread out from neighbors. The campground hosts will deliver firewood to your campsite when bought at their little market. Definitely recommend!

  Nice camp site.

  Very nice, clean and organized campsite. Sites are spaced further apart for great privacy. Host was pleasant and very friendly. Nice to see him driving through the site checking up on things.

  Annie and Abel Van Meter State Park Campground

  Well maintained campgrounds with short trails and lake for fishing

  We camped out here for the weekend. 

  The campground is one circular lot with I think around 18 spots. Some are basic just for tents and some have water and or electric. 

  The ones on the inside of the circle have more space and are more open but you don't have any privacy. Most spots on the outside of the circle, especially on the north and west sides have more privacy but not as much space. 

  The grounds are well kept with grass while maintained. 

  I hiked on most of the trails in one day. I missed the memorial trail and boardwalk. Home that I walked on will maintained. Some of them are more difficult than others but none of them too strenuous. 

  Note about the lake - Once you get to the parking lot for the lake you'll see nothing but trees. On the east side of the parking lot (next to the state park signage/billboard) there are two trail heads. Take the one on the left. There's a quarter mile hike down to the lake. The way back is mostly uphill. Not too steep, but steep enough you might feel it if you don't do much hiking/walking. 

  Playground It had a nice playground for small kids including a little play area and some swing sets. 

  Restrooms There were two bathrooms present. One was a traditional drop toilet. It had a solar fan so surprisingly it did not have any smell. The other bathroom has a shower and the women's had two toilets and the men's had one toilet and a urinal. Everything was clean. 

  Dog-friendliness We did not take any dogs but we saw plenty of people who had dogs.

  Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground — Arrow Rock State Historic Site

  Great Basic Campsites

  The largest camp area of Arrow Rock is definitely geared towards RVs, but there is a "basic loop" with twelve basic campsites for tent camping. There is a bathroom/shower house very close to the basic loop and the basic loop is well away from the RV area. Right up the road is Big Soldier Lake where you can fish as well. The camp host was helpful in providing firewood and was very attentive of the sites. The campsites are a bit crowded in with each other as there are 12 in the small basic loop, but a few campsites at the back end of the loop provide a lot of area to stretch and spread out into.

  Nice State Park

  Electric only sites, some extremely difficult to level in, but overall a very well maintained park and a great host. The town of Arrow Rock is awesome, adds a great element to staying here.

  Thousand Hills State Park Campground

  Very clean and well kept

  I stayed one night for an activity at the state park the following day. The shower houses had individual, private, large, and very clean facilities. It was not crowded at all. Campground #2 was the smaller of the two campgrounds. The spots seemed more fitting for RV’s vs tent but there were a couple of tents. I slept in my van so it wasn’t an issue for me. I may reconsider visiting this park for tent camping.

  Crowder State Park Campground

  Nice park and campground

  Very nice area. The camping spots are relatively level and are mainly concrete or asphalt. The park hosts are friendly and helpful. The bathrooms and showers are very very clean. Even the vault bathroom next to our site wasn’t that nasty.

  Beautiful, quiet, shady campground. Lots of space between sites. Fun to explore the historic area. Good, well-marked trails around the campground, to the visitor center, town, and river. We plan to return.

  Crowder State Park Campground

  Nice, but some pretty small sites

  This worked great as an overnight stop on our way to MN. We were there midweek during the off-season, so our nice pull-thru site was fine. Some sites were small and open. Bathrooms were closed for the season, but the building looked pretty new.

  Arrow Rock State Historic Site Campground — Arrow Rock State Historic Site

  Peaceful Place

  Very nice campsite.  Host were very friendly and more than helpful in welcoming us.  Sites are well spaced and angled to increase privacy. Area is a gold mine of discovery with multiple walking paths under an arch of trees that cover the path to a simple historical downtown area.  Must try is the pork tenderloin plate at J. Houston tavern for dinner.  You will not be disappointed.  Great place to stay and will be back.

  Annie and Abel Van Meter State Park Campground

  Fun weekend family camping

  Clean, well cared for campground. The even numbered sites are really big and back up to big open grassy area with shade trees. The odd numbered sites are smaller and may hold water after a rain, but more private. Bring plenty of bug spray. The campground is right by a marsh and it is REALLY buggy. Several short hikes in the park that are appropriate for kids and dogs.

  Lodder Up & Camp

  A gem in a small town

  This is a great park in a small town. The park seems newly built or remodeled. It was very clean. Some sites have concrete pads and others are rock. Sites seemed level despite there being a lot of elevation change within the park. Utilities were in great shape. Wifi worked fine. We'd definitely come back.

  Fountain Grove Conservation Area

  Pretty little area for free *but not private* camping in MO

  This area is near where I assume MDC stores their equipment, so the area is a bit busy but they have picnic tables and fire rings at the camping sites and they were well maintained (grass mowed, good gravel roads etc.). Not a lot of options for shade but a few :)

  nice NorthEast MO boondocking by the lake

  Area had car camping sites with covered shelters and picnic tables right by the water and some more primitive sites further from the water. Access is easy peasy.

  Mussel Fork Conservation Area

  Free MO camping near creek

  Each site at this CA features a small gravel lot with a fire ring. The areas that have grass were mowed (June 2022). Road was inaccessible in some places near the creek but there were plenty of easy to access spots!
