Twin Rivers Landing

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Reservations are available and recommended at Twin Rivers Landing, a privately managed campground in Lesterville, Missouri, where nightly rates run $10 to $15 per person. The campground sits directly on the Black River, drawing a steady crowd of paddlers who come to float the water and use the on-site canoe and kayak rentals. Sites range from large primitive tent spots with access to community water pumps, to full hookup RV pads accommodating rigs up to 50 feet with electric, water, and sewer connections. Pricing is per person, so larger groups should factor that into their budget.

Cleanliness comes up consistently across reviews. The bathrooms and shower house near the main entrance are regularly noted as well-maintained, and Lizz G. describes them as "CLEAN, critter free, and well kept." Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring, and campfires are permitted. A camp store on-site stocks basic supplies and gear, with reviewers noting prices there are reasonable. AT&T cell service reportedly works well at the campground. Small cabins with air conditioning, bunk beds, and a small porch are also available for those who want a simpler setup without tent gear.

Nearby options along the same stretch of river include Riversedge Campground to the south, Wilderness Lodge Resort to the northwest, and Parks Bluff Campground a short distance away. Summer weekends fill quickly. Book your site in advance, especially if you plan to float the river on a Friday or Saturday.

Campers appreciated the spacious, well-maintained sites and consistently clean facilities right on the Black River. The friendly staff and quality amenities create a positive experience, though per-person pricing can add up for larger families.

Canoe/Kayak Hot Spot

We go there each year and we are impressed with the owners for keeping this campground clean. The bathrooms and showers are always clean and friendly staffs. Lots of river rats as this campground is right by the black river which is always a canoe/kayaks hot spot. Reserve your spot ahead of time.

Canoe and Kayak Hotspot

My family always camp there during Memorial Weekend while growing up. This camping ground is right by the river. This place has transformed where they offer little but of everything and reserve ahead of time. I highly recommend you reserve canoe or Kayak at time of your camping reservation. If you love to stargaze then head out to open land and enjoy the night sky and bring a telescope.

Great place to just sit back and relax

We liked going here. It was a little expensive as they charge per person and I have an 8 person family but it was worth it. The sites were big enough for 4 tents. They have a shop and the prices there were extremely cheap. It is right on the black river which was a nice easy float trip for us. Waters were super clear. They have bathrooms and showers. Att cell service works good here.

Camping Cabins with A/C

As a child my family camped at Twin Rivers annually so it was really fun to go back in June. It is a popular spot for people who are there to float the Black River.
We were hiking the OT from Taum Sauk to Johnson Shut-ins so we opted for a camping cabin to keep it simple. We were delighted to find it had A/C! There are 4 small cabins with a double bunk, table and 2 chairs plus the A/C. There is as little porch: nice for sitting or gear stash. It was clean and simple. Bring your own bedding. Outside there is a big water spigot, picnic table, fire ring, and grill. You have access to the "beach" on the crystal clear Black River. There is a camp store with a good stock of what you forgot plus t-shirts etc.
I love Twin River's Landing and we hope to use that cabin again.

Clean, quiet, well kept, friendly

Large primitive sites with plenty of space and access to community water pump in each area. Full RV hookup sites with room for tent camping friends. Trash pickup. Bathrooms within walking distance, that are CLEAN, critter free, and well kept. Access to shower house near the main entrance. Laundry on site as well!

The site we stayed at was a premium tent/basic RV slot, so essentially we had access to an electrical outlet and our own water. The site was huge, plenty of space for our two tents, a pop up, and our "camp kitchen". Each site has a pretty well kept up picnic table and fire ring with cowboy stove (grate that flips over the fire..does the rest of the country use that phrase, too?)

We came in on a Thursday evening and had no issues checking in and getting settled. We floated the Black River Friday through the campground, and had a blast. Our 6 man raft was in great condition and we had no problems with pick up at the put out. Our bus driver was a magician, getting us back in record time. We camped for three nights. Quiet time beginning at 11pm didn't need enforcing, everyone was pleasant and friendly. The staff was phenomenal.

We are already planning our next trip out and cant wait to bring the kids!
