5 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several cabin camping options surround Theodosia, Missouri, with waterfront accommodations at Bull Shoals-White River State Park offering electricity and proximity to prime fishing locations. Gaston's White River Resort Cabins provides fully equipped options with electric hookups, showers, toilets, and sewer connections. Beaver Creek Canoe Rental, Campground & Cabins includes amenities such as drinking water, electric hookups, picnic tables, and shower facilities. Most cabins feature covered patios, fire rings, and trash service. "The mobile homes near the marina for those campers that don't have access to a pop-up or a camper for rent look very nice," according to one visitor.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Sonlight Campground & Cabins and Blue Heron Campground permit pets in their cabin accommodations, while Gaston's White River Resort maintains a pet-friendly policy as well. Most properties require advance reservations, particularly during peak fishing seasons from spring through fall. Cabin rental periods typically follow the campground's seasonal schedule, with Bull Shoals-White River operating from March 15 to November 14, while others like Copper Johns Resort remain open year-round. A recent review noted that "we had a great time camping Memorial Day Weekend" and found "the campsite was really nice and everyone was very friendly."
Cabin furnishings vary widely across properties. Most include basic furniture and beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from simple microwaves to full cooking setups at locations like White River Campground and Cabins, which offers laundry facilities alongside its cabin rentals. Several cabins provide water hookups and electric service. On-site markets at Copper Johns Resort and Bull Shoals-White River State Park stock fishing supplies, firewood, and essential provisions. For more extensive grocery needs, visitors should stock up before arrival, as the nearest major shopping is approximately 35 minutes away in Flippin, Arkansas.
"All of the campsites face white river and there’s plenty of space between sites to allow for some level of privacy. All the campsites are flat with nice concrete pads."
"My friends have been trying to get us here for a few years and we finally made the drive. It did not disappoint! We shared a “buddy site” because we have tiny campers."
"Quick lake access, spacious, shady space, pet friendly, amazing bathhouses."
"Concrete pads and asphalt driveway. Good road around campsites. Pads are very level. Sites have a lot of space between them with many Oak shade trees. Covered picnic table."
Available this weekend
from $20 - $54 / night
"The amenities were nice including fire pits, pavilion, shower house and laundry. Easy access and parking. Cabins looked nice! Only reason for not giving a 5 is highway noise."
"The location is great in the sense that it’s easy to get to and it’s laid out well. Unfortunately, it’s directly under an overpass and it is loud- loud enough that I used ear plugs at night."
"It’s quiet and there’s a fish cleaning station and swings, rocking chairs, outdoor kitchens and really nice private bath/showers which are air-conditioned and summer and heated in winter."
"It appears that there are long time campers, some weekend campers and nice cabins along the River."
"They have lots of different cabins/cottages to choose from on the river. There is a landing strip for small planes and an awesome restaurant with an amazing view of the River."
"Took my wife and daughter to gastons for a visit and to get out on some walking trails. They have a nature preserve there and it was great to visit."
"Each site has parking, for car or RV all differing in length, and you walk behind the parking to an area with benches, picinic table, lantern hanger, and fire pit."
"A number of sites are multi-level, meaning the picnic table may be on an elevated platform with steps for access."
Available this weekend
from $20 - $50 / night
"It's in a great location between the White River and Bull Shoals Lake. It's also in a great location for an easy drive to Branson for an afternoon"
from $35 - $65 / night
"There are a few tent locations that are located away from the main area if you what to be away from it all. There are cabins as well. "
"I have seen many Jellystone Parks in the past, and I will say this one is a bit less themed than others. "
"Look at park and read up before reserving. Half the sites are close to pool and playground, but not many trees. The other half are an easy 2 minute walk and tree covered!"
from $48 - $251 / night
"It's my mom's favorite park of all time. The grounds are clean and secure. The location between the 2 old bridges make a perfect backdrop at any time if the day."
ScoutCampground was clean, shaded and right on the White River! The amenities were nice including fire pits, pavilion, shower house and laundry. Easy access and parking. Cabins looked nice! Only reason for not giving a 5 is highway noise. Nice location to other attractions.
LegendSuch a beautiful place, friendly staff and clean bathrooms.
ScoutTotal impressed with everything about this RV Park. The cabins are incredible. Probably one of the cleanest we’ve seen, and we’ve been East to West. Thanks for the stay, we’ll be back.
GuideWanted Aunts Creek campground but its closed for the season, this RV resort is adjacent. Mostly long term 5th wheels and bigger trailers. Sites are fairly close together and somewhat level. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Place is in a bit of disrepair and overgrown some. Owner bought less than year ago and appears to be trying to get the place sorted. We stayed at site 9, its very close to 8 and no fire ring. I would suggest another site maybe 6 or 7 by the swimming pool. Campground next door has swimming, fishing, boat dock for recreation. Host is friendly and helpful. Other campers friendly as well.Store has a few items but not well stocked. This could be a nice spot with a bit of TLC.
LegendFor an RV park in Branson this is a GREAT option. FHU, pool, coffee house, pizza shop, yurts, cabins, RVs and all the fun right in town. We wanted to stay in town and not at the state park this time and this is a great option for that. Brand new facilities for the pool coffeehouse and pizza shop. There are tree, houses and yachts and cabins with fire pits and hammocks and hot tubs. Great option for a girls trip or family Reunion or even couples weekend. The RV spots are nice and level with full hook ups. I would recommend the backend Woods sites if you are needing a little space and privacy. And especially shade. The pull through and sunset sites along with the basic Backing sites are lacking and shade and in the summer months that’s going to be a big deal. The most shaded site for sunset is 38. The best site that I could find overall was 43. We were in 39 and had to spend most of our time around back because there was too much sun even with our awning.
GuideHosts were very accommodating. Site was lovely. Coffee shop was great. We did get a pizza one night, delicious. My only “complaint” We selected a site by the dog park on the map, but there is not a dog park.
ScoutWow 2 pools are huge size. Indoor & outside both . Shower houses public bathrooms 5 shower houses 10-15 showers 2 laundry's ,lodge, food golf carts entertainment ....block outside entrance live branson shows....
ScoutOur stay at Treasure Lake RV Resort in Branson was extremely frustrating due to a complete failure in communication by the staff.
Before arriving, I had three separate conversations with the campground staff regarding the dates we wanted to stay. At no point during any of those conversations were we informed about blackout dates that would affect our stay. Had this information been communicated upfront, I would have made different plans.
Instead, when we arrived we were informed that we would have to vacate three days earlier than planned because of these blackout dates. This was not our mistake, it was a failure on the campground's staff to provide accurate information when we specifically discussed our stay dates multiple times.
What makes the situation even more disappointing is that management had several opportunities to make things right and chose not to. Good customer service means taking ownership of mistakes and working with customers to find a reasonable solution. Unfortunately that did not happen here.
Because our stay was cut short by three days, we were unable to take advantage of many of the resort amenities. The shortened stay significantly reduced the value we received from our RPI membership and visit.
Potential guests should also understand that this is a first-come, first-served campground and does not accept reservations. If you are traveling under an RPI membership, be prepared that you may not receive the same level of consideration as other guests. We certainly felt like second-class customers.
The campground itself may have nice facilities but customer service and communication matter. Unfortunately, Treasure Lake failed in both areas during our stay and because of that we will not return.
ScoutThis was our 2nd time to stay there. Place is kept up very well and Michael is always helpful the facilities are clean and it’s a great place for a relaxing get away
