Rosie Jones Park

5 ReviewsAdd Review

Open terrain overlooking Lake Murvaul defines this county-managed camping area where boaters and RV campers spread across mowed grass sites. Rosie Jones Park operates as a basic boondocking destination with scattered picnic tables and a boat ramp providing direct water access. The rough access road challenges navigation, particularly after dark, but leads to what one camper calls a "nice turn around" area.

Campers find the sites well-maintained with regular mowing, though Perry R. notes the area now requires a $6 daily camping permit. The open layout means little privacy between sites but allows for easy maneuvering of larger rigs. Cell service reaches the area, and the county allows both pets and alcohol. Decker Hill Park - Lake Murvaul sits just 0.1 miles northeast for those wanting additional lake access options.

"Very Open and Clean," reports Don, highlighting the maintained grounds and water access. The lakeside position offers sunrise and sunset viewing opportunities, though the exposed terrain provides minimal shade. Reviews consistently mention the quiet atmosphere, with minimal traffic noise reaching the camping area.

Pack your own water and prepare for dry camping, as the park provides no hookups beyond basic amenities. The boat ramp makes this spot particularly useful for anglers and water sports enthusiasts planning multi-day lake visits.

Many campers appreciated the quiet lakeside setting with beautiful sunset views and clean sites. Some feedback indicated rough road access and minimal amenities, making it suitable for boondocking adventures.
