Best Glamping near West Alton, MO

Pretty nice campground, but is near a racetrack. Loud engine noises can be heard past 10pm. Otherwise, no real complaints!

Doesn't allow pets for tent sites

Wild pads are allowed in the RV area. They are not allowed in the camping area.

Spent one night on our way through. We had tram tickets for the arch so we needed a shore power hookup for run the AC for our dog. This was a good spot for that. Some grass and shade, a pool and a playground for the kids. When you first pull down the road you’ll be worried you’re going to end up in the train yard, but the campground is hidden and actually really quiet and secluded. Laundry, showers and bathrooms available as well.

There is no electric or running water. The lake is ok but no swimming, boating and fishing only.

The campground is relatively small but has great sites to camp. Very private and clean. 5 ⭐ in my opinion simply because of the overnight price and privacy. Not much to do if you have kids. If you're looking for quite camping trip this is a great park to camp.

Had a great experience . It was my first time. Rangers were helpful and friendly. Came back a second time . Great for first time campers good rates and amenities

Very primitive camping. Toilets only, but the campsites are spaced comfortably apart. The grounds are well maintained.

Great spot in a beautiful area close to St. Louis. No power but access to drinking water and waste water dump for just 8$.

There is a homemade sign that says no camping. I wish we would have known that before we got here. As far as I could tell the website said it’s open.

This is a great place when the geese are migrating thru, I really hope to be back here some day!

Peaceful tent camping on Walkers Island at $8 per day.

Horseshoe Lake is one of my most visited parks and most favorite park in the STL and surrounding areas. First off absolutely beautiful land and peace is easily achieved. Self service pay system makes it simple, easy, and fast. Camping can be reserved but no need. Just pick your spot go to the office building, and fill out the form, pay and slide in envelope and drop in box. Staff/ Security is super friendly and helpful with directing throughout the park. Also not nosy and mind their own unless you are just being that guy. Clean and well kept up with spots, water Spickets never far from your camp also nice cast iron fire pits. Good fishing, trails and memories waiting to be made.

8$ a night

Nice little campground close to down town St Louis (when the leaves are down I bet you can see the Arch). Campsites are nice and flat with the standard picnic tables and fire rings. No showers, but decent toilets. The nice thing is the campground is staffed by rangers in the day, and at night they sometimes take a security swing through the campground. Nice lake for fishing and boating.

We stayed here for 10 months. The place did nothing but improve the entire time. Rent is cheap, and the people are nice.

I love it

Great little campground just outside of Grafton, Illinois, on the Mississippi River. The campground is located in an open grove of old trees. There were owls when we were there. In winter there are a lot of eagles feeding in the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers which meet at the park. The Lewis & Clark expedition started nearby. Most of the sites were fairly level, but I didn’t see any pull through sites. Lots of hiking trails, and the lodge has one of the best fried chicken dinners around on Sunday.

Great CG near Grafton! Easy drive and several winery’s. Nice trails as well!
