A Hidden Gem

I hesitate to do a great review on this campground as it is our favorite when we go to Branson. Now it's a little on the used side and it looks as old as it is. However the staff are very friendly and it's quiet at night for being as close to Branson. They have full hookups and we have never had a problem with anything. The park is part of Escapees Campground system. If you don't know what that is just look them up. Membership is very reasonable and if you camp a lot and use their campgrounds it will pay for itself after three or four days stay. If you stay there you are 5 minutes from College of The Ozarks. Take the self driving tour and get a reservation for the Sunday Brunch. WOW!!! If you have never heard of The College of the Ozarks look it up. It is a phenomenal story.

There's no getting around that this is a well-maintained park. We stayed here in 2018 for a over a month. October 2019 stay was for three weeks. Everything was fine until a rouge storm was predicted to come in the last week we were to be there. We decided that it might be best for us to head back home. So, I went to the owner and told her what our intentions were and wondered if we might be able to get a few nights credit(not a whole week) with them for 2020 as we were going to come back again. She said she would have to discuss it with her husband and let me know. Two days later still no answer. My wife saw them together while she was walking the dog and again asked if we could get some days off for the 2020 stay, we were planning with our grown kids. They were very rude about it and said they would not do that. We were not asking for any money back. But since we had been with them the year before for over a month, we hoped they would like to get a little more money out of us the following year. I guess they feel that they are the best place in Custer, and they don't have to be worry about any lost revenue. The day we left it snowed up to 6 inches that night and stayed in the teens for the next 3 days. Our propane tank in the motorhome would have run out the first night. So, if you have a problem while you're there don't look for any understanding from these people. Most of the bad reviews I saw after this encounter was how rude the owners were. There are other nice RV parks in Custer. We will give them our money.
