The river is pretty, seems like great fishing opportunity. We were just passing through so we didn't fish. The shower and bathrooms left a lot to be desired. Only one shower and indoor toilet on the side we stayed on and it was just kind of gross. We did find 2 outside stalls with toilets but not until the next morning so that helped. Overall it was a nice place to stop and sleep for the night. Friendly people. Cameras in the campground so it feels safe.

Nice Shady spot overlooking the river. My spot was shaded by black walnut trees. With the sound of the river in the background. Totally relaxing.

John was super helpful n a last minute tight. Nice campground just wish we would of had more time to visit.

It’s evident the owner is trying to make improvements to the infrastructure of the park. Great location along shoal creek. Some road noise from the bridge nearby. I would stay here again.

Nice campground close to Joplin, MO. Friendly host, clean campsites, pet friendly.

The owners are nice, very accommodating and helpful.  Lots of friendly locals hang out at the river during the summer.  The shower house is a little dated but it's always clean.  There is plenty of shade everywhere.  Tubing from the falls was a blast!  

    I will definitely be back!

This could be a really nice little campground if it weren’t for the party vibe starting at 7am (yep, there was that one guy pounding beer and cranking tunes at 7am). Camp sites are divided by the road with RVs on one side and tents on the other. A person can easily walk under the bridge to get from one side to the other without having to walk on the road. There are no designated sites for tents, and that means there are also no picnic tables or grills for tents (it looked like there were at least some grills and fire pits near the gravel parking pads for RVs). But, for $5 you can camp on the beach and Mike (the fellow who runs Zan’s) will help you get hooked up with kayaks or rafts to float the river. There are no showers. There’s a decent roadhouse just up the street for some eats.
