Pomme de Terre State Park has several glamping options spread across both the Hermitage and Pittsburgh campgrounds. The park includes yurts with comfortable beds, electricity, and climate control systems that provide a refined outdoor experience while maintaining proximity to nature. Both sides of the lake house upscale accommodations with private access to water activities and scenic views. Nearby, Bennett Spring State Park Campground and Stockton State Park Campground also feature glamping accommodations with enhanced amenities beyond traditional camping.

Water-based activities dominate the glamping experience at these locations, with direct access to Pomme de Terre Lake for swimming, fishing, and boating. The Pittsburgh side marina offers canoe, kayak, and paddleboard rentals for guests wanting to explore the water. Multiple glamping sites provide private trails leading to the shoreline, with several premium accommodations featuring waterfront views.

The showers are clean and private. My kids love it too!" Seasonal availability varies by location, with some glamping accommodations open year-round while others operate from March through October.

RangerA hatchery on site, trout fishing daily limit 4. Nice stop over on a road trip, honored Access pass for discount, level site, showers, easy drive from a nearby town. Site was level, table fire pit, grill, lantern hook, access to dumpster n n water, on site dump station. There is a pool in lower part of campground as well as restraunt, store, did not use these facilities.
TravelerWe camped in campground 1 right next to the play ground. Super clean, had a view of the lake. Within walking distance of the marina. Everyone was very friendly. My only complaint is the first night we had super noisy neighbors. I'm all for music and a good time but past quiet hours I think one should tone it down a bit. I assumed the host would tell them to be quiet. It did take me complaining the next morning, and then the host went to talk to them. Rest of the trip was smooth as can be! Kayak trails on the lake...beautiful clean swimming beaches. Can't wait to go back :)
TravelerWay off the beaten path but we had a good time. The campground was clean and everyone was nice. It did get a little rowdy on the weekend but folks respected the quiet hours.
Bathrooms decent with showers.
T-Mobile and Verizon in places. Hard to get in a camper Several sites that can take advantage of Starlink.
ScoutCampground is generally clean and well-kept. Price is definitely reasonable and the bathroom at campground 5 is VERY nice, running water and hot showers.
RangerStayed 7/22/200 - $15/night
Site 97
Lake-view sites, beaches, flush toilets and showers, all for$15/night. Don’t have super high expectations.
PROS:
Great sites on the water. Good space with picnic table and fire rings with a grate. Site 97 was on a corner, with a neighbor to one side, and lots of space between sites to the other.
CONS:
Showers aren’t great. Cobwebs and mold. First door didn’t even lock. Wide gaps with no curtain. No soap in bathrooms.(During COVID). Can’t expect much for$15/night, but bathrooms/showers were disappointing.
You can setup in the grass, right by the water and enjoy the beach. The ranger also told us of beach access just outside the park, across the street. Bathroom/shower house was a bit of a walk from our site, but nothing crazy. Worth it for the views. No problems with AT&T cell service.
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.
ScoutAlthough this is adjacent to the Interstate exit (and therefore more noisy for a Sportsmobile tent camper), it was excellent and we’d stay there again. The cement pads, clean picnic table and immaculate bathrooms, with separate private showers, were welcome after a long travel day.
You can’t go wrong.

Pomme de Terre State Park offers yurt camping on both the Hermitage and Pittsburgh sides of the lake. The park sits at approximately 870 feet elevation and covers over 3,000 acres across two sections connected by Highway 254. Water levels in the 7,820-acre lake typically fluctuate 3-4 feet seasonally, affecting shoreline access for campers using the various glamping accommodations.
Fishing from shoreline: Pittsburgh Area Campground provides direct lake access from multiple sites. "Sites viewable by map next to water. Each site in the electric loop has a private path to the waters edge," notes Josh S., who highlights the fishing opportunities available without a boat.
Kayak exploration: Sparrowfoot campground offers easy water access with minimal crowds. "It was also pretty low, but still had plenty of fun and kayaked through all the little coves," shares Devin M. who visited in July. The coves provide protected areas for beginners to practice paddling.
Swimming beaches: Designated swimming areas provide safer alternatives to shoreline swimming. "We loved the trail to the lake! The swimming beach was amazing and the bathrooms well-kept," shares Rebecca R. about Pittsburgh campground. Many of these beaches have gradually sloping entry points suitable for all swimming abilities.
Privacy between sites: Hermitage State Park Campground receives praise for its spacious layout. "This campground is very wide open and great for family camping, the main facilities are clean and showers are private," notes Bryan C. The open design allows for better airflow during humid summer months.
Clean facilities: Maintenance standards remain high across the region's parks. "The showers are clean and private. My kids love it too!" mentions a reviewer at Pittsburgh Area Campground. Sparrowfoot campground also maintains high standards with "clean shower house and vaulted facilities," according to Thomas W.
Value for senior campers: Stockton State Park Campground offers significant discounts. "Real nice park Especially for what we paid. $8.00 for electric only per night. Senior rate off season, $2.00 discount," shares Gary P. Many parks in the region honor America the Beautiful Senior Pass for 50% off camping fees.
Site selection matters: Not all sites provide the same experience, especially regarding tent placement. "The site was on quite an incline & there were lots of rocks under our tent. I would not recommend this site," cautions Jessica B. about Pittsburgh Area Campground.
Seasonal insect activity: Plan accordingly for bugs, especially in wooded areas. "You're in the woods so take bug spray. Level paved lots to choose from," advises Cindy K. about Pittsburgh Area Campground. Peak mosquito season typically runs May through September.
Varying water conditions: Lake conditions change throughout the season. "When we were here (July) the lake was pretty muddy but I'm not sure if it's always that way or not," reports Devin M. about Sparrowfoot. Water clarity generally improves in spring and fall.
Playground access: Choose sites near recreation areas when camping with children. At Sparrowfoot, "Loop B also has the playground which is right behind site B47. It's a newer playground and all equipment was nicely maintained," notes Devin M., though they mention "there are no swings."
Bike-friendly parks: Bennett Spring State Park Campground offers excellent biking opportunities. "The roads are all paved so it made biking for our kids easy and enjoyable," shares Amanda R. This creates safe spaces for children to explore independently.
Safety oversight: Parents appreciate the visible presence of park staff. At Hermitage State Park Campground, one camper noted, "I felt comfortable letting the kids ride their bikes around, a great presence from the park rangers!" The ranger station is typically staffed from 8am to 4pm daily.
Site leveling challenges: Select sites carefully based on your rig's requirements. "Good room and nice level areas where we stayed in the 400 loop," reports Kevin C. about Pittsburgh Area Campground, indicating the importance of choosing appropriate loops.
Hookup variety: COE Harry S Truman Reservoir Long Shoal Park offers electric-only sites that work well for self-contained units. "Shaded electric only site with amazing view of the lake," shares Dan & Penny F., who mentioned paying just $10 per night with an America the Beautiful Senior pass.
Size limitations: Not all campgrounds accommodate larger rigs. Assess site dimensions before booking, particularly for sites backing to wooded areas. "Our site, like all, came with a picnic table and a fire pit," notes a reviewer at Long Shoal Campground, where most sites can accommodate medium-sized RVs up to 32 feet.
