We stayed up on the hill in the non reserve sites. Found the sites to be paved and level. Sites had fire pits with concrete patio with nice table with extension to place grill on table. Found the restrooms where the showers were located to be very clean. You can rent a boat at the Marina for a couple of hours or more and do the Aquatic Tour We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

One of our most favorite state parks. You can't beat the beauty of nature here, any season. Excellent weekend campfire programs, but they are fewer as the season closes; electricity and water get shut off Nov 1. Fishing is excellent. Basic sites down on the lakefront, it is usually rowdy down there on the weekends. Beautiful lakefront sites. Some sites can be difficult to get into due to trees or ditches on the roadsides.

One of the best Missouri State Parks in our opinion. Great lake access, very nice boat dock, swim beach and fishing area. Nice marina store with boat and personal watercraft rental, firewood and general supplies. Horseback riding is available in the park as well as many marked trails for hiking, walking and biking. There are several playgrounds. There are camper cabins available also. The downfall to the lakefront sites is that they are all primitive (no electric), but very nice sites. The restrooms/shower houses were very clean and well maintained. The park is within 5 to 10 minutes from major shopping and lake activities which is a plus if that suits your interest. Most the pull thru sites are situated such that allow some privacy. The turn arounds and pull thrus are a bit tight throughout the park, however I think this park was originally layed out and paved with more tent camping in mind, thus trailers and bigger rigs have a few tight "moments" in some areas. It certainly doesn't seem to bother too many as nearly all the electric sites are occupied by trailers of some sort and generally always full. If we could improve anything it would be adding more water spigots throughout the park; they are rather scarce in number. While this park is busy due to the numerous campsites it is very safe and family friendly and well patrolled by state park rangers and campground hosts. We always enjoy our stay.

Campground was very tight for a big rig & needed some tree trimming to make a 12' high rig feel welcome. Site was clean & roomy. Lake view through trees only. Hosts were very friendly. We camped here in a camper.
