Loggers Lake is in the Mark Twain NF, 7 miles south of Bunker, MO, Hwy 72. It is rustic camping, all sites are on the 40 acre lake, have paved parking, a picnic table, lantern pole. I've been camping here since 1962, started out in a tent, recently graduated to a small motor home. This is total peace and quiet. Two boat launches, electric trolling motors only. Lots of large mouth bass. Great swimming, hiking trail around lake. This is not for "city" folk who like showers, it's for people who know how to "camp". I love it. - logger1939

This is a NFS campground on the Black River operated by concessionaire. The campground is about 7 miles off the highway via a blacktop county road, the last mile or so it gets winding and pretty narrow, so don't drive fast on that stretch. My Senior pass garnered a $6 discount off the $20 rate. Water is available in front of the shower house, which could mean having to drive twice around the loop before settling down, unless you have a long hose or have a site next to the one of the 5 spigots scattered throughout the park. There is NO dump station so plan accordingly. Most of the electric sites are up on the high ground, few of those are level - I needed 3 inches of blocks under the drivers side wheels of our 26' TT and had to lower the jack a lot to get it level. The pads are wide enough so you can park alongside your RV; in fact you will probably have to, only a few were very long. The shower and restroom were adequate. If you don't mind spending a little more, there are 2 double sites with electricity at $30 a night closer to the river, although I didn't find any easy access to the river anywhere in the campground; the best access was from a small parking area 1/4 mile away across the bridge, though people with disabilities may find it a difficult walk to the river even from there. There were only 2 other sites occupied during our 3-weekday stay, we never saw a ranger nor any sign of the concessionaire, I just put our money envelope in the can. We had no ATT cell service . - Hickory Nut

This campground has recently been revamped. It is near the Black River and a short drive from Johnson's Shut-Ins and Elephant Rock State Parks. Site #29 is very difficult to get into. Few sites are level but all are paved and spacious. Very quiet in October. We will go back to this campground. - Pat and Rex

This is a gem for those of us who just want peace and quiet. The campground is behind the owners home and store. There is a bath house that is always clean. There are only 4 RV sites the rest are tent sites some with electric. There are no pads just a gravel area. Each has a fire ring and picnic table. Pets are welcome. - gill3427

Newer state CG. Most sites have water, elec, sewer. Rate we paid includes water and elec. Concrete sites. Beautiful area. ~ 27 miles from Winona. Not an easy drive. Lots of areas to hike. Wild horses visited us one morning. Only very small, newly planted trees in the CG. Our site needed cleaning...melted marshmallows, bandages, and campfire debris from previous campers, but overall a very good experience. - katinfoco

The park is just over a year old but it looks like it opened yesterday. A little shade would be nice but they've planted lots of trees so that will change. Wild (not very) horses wander freely throughout the park. I keep wondering who cleans up after them but somebody must because I see no evidence of their presence. Zero cellular service but unusually good wifi as state parks go. Some of the sites on the edges of the campground might have a problem with satellite service due to adjacent high ground but the central sites shouldn't. Not much nearby shopping wise, so stock up before you get here. Park store has the basics.
It seemed like I'd gone too far and missed it coming South from Salem. Don't worry. The entrance is very well marked. You won't get past without seeing it. - ljr

More like an RV park than a State Park campground. Zero privacy. None. I had neighbors very close on both sides and, because of the tiered layout, I also had neighbors above me. I couldn't even leave my skylight open. Screaming kids everywhere. Wifi worked in my spot because I was under the router but it didn't seem to work outside of my site. Staff was extremely nice. I can see that they were trying to make this park nice and 'modern' but unfortunately it was just packed in too tightly with no attention to privacy or nature. - RV_CamperGuy

Let me start with this: if you want to stay in a park with wifi, cell service and TV, this is not the place for you. However, if you want to get away from it all and get back to nature, then this should be on your list of places to go. Johnson's Shut-ins is located in a very scenic area of the Ozarks and is one of my favorite places to visit. The park is extremely popular in the summer but doesn't get too crowded since there is a maximum number of cars allowed in the day-use area at one time. The campground includes restrooms & showers in each loop, bike paths, playground, amphitheater for evening programs and wifi at the camp store. The rest of the park has a visitor center, picnic area, hiking trails and the shut-ins, which is a wonderful place to splash and swim. There is a special parking lot for registered campers, so you have access to the shut-ins even if the day-use area is full and a line has formed. Or you can ride bikes on the path that connects the campground to the day-use area. We stayed in Site 203 and loved it. Trees separated the site from most of the others and gave us partial shade, but there was also an open, grassy area for playing catch. The river was closed due to high water, but it didn't bother us at all since there are plenty of other things to do. My only complaint is that the camp store is only open for a few hours on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and not at all during the week (it may be open more often during the summer season). So be prepared to drive several miles to town if you need supplies and it's not open. By the way, if signs are posted stating the river is closed due to high water, please stay out of the water. People have drowned at the shut-ins from trying to cross the river during high water. It doesn't matter if you're a strong swimmer; debris such as trees gets stuck in the shut-ins and can trap you underwater. - JeniLynne

Johnson's Shut Ins State Park is one of the nicest State Parks we have ever stayed in--certainly a jewel of the Missouri State Park System. All sites are fully paved, most are full hookup sites. Each one has a large picnic table, patio area and lamp stand--along with high quality water, electric and sewer hook-ups. Families enjoy playing in nature's water slide in the park, a tumbling, clear water stream flowing among huge granite boulders. There are also numerous trails for hiking and a separate camping area for horse riders and their animals. This is a great place to relax and enjoy all that mother nature has to offer in the Missouri Ozarks. - MissouriBird

We stayed in loop 2 site 219 which has full hookups. We stayed from June 28 - July 1. The concrete pads are fairly level, the hookups are in the concrete pad. The spacing on the sites range from nearby to spacious. The campground has basic, electric, equestrian, and FHU sites available. There are numerous trails including a connection to the Ozark Trail. This area is very remote, the campground store has everything you need if you forget something including the only WIFI hotspot in the campground. This campground is a cell phone dead area "NO SERVICE". You can get cell phone service at the Park Visitor Center which is a mile away. - 2G's

Huge place, lots of space. An amazing adventure for our dogs, as there is plenty of opportunity for off-leash play. There is a beach and two other water access points for the dogs. Staff very helpful--they spent an afternoon troubleshooting my sister and brother-in-laws rig that had broken down. They also sponsor float trips, but we did not do any, so I can't comment on them. Only downside was the ticks. That's probably true any grassy place in Missouri. Be sure to use DEET on your skin and Permethrin on your clothes and also protect your dogs. Bring a swimsuit to the shut-ins and hike to the lower pool--magical. We'll stay there again if we're ever in SE Missouri. - JacknLorie

Campground isn't right on highway which was great. You drive down a gravel road and are met by nature. Lots of trees and big sites. River is right there, so peaceful. Everyone was very nice. My only complaint is they could put a bench in the shower and bigger curtain where you undress. Better not be modest. - Kspam

Beautiful area! Summer weekends get crowded with a party atmosphere. They have canoe and raft rentals for floating. The "beach" area is a great place to hang out at once the floats trips have shoved off for the day, it's an easy walk as it's part of the campgrounds. Bathrooms seem to be keep as clean as possible for all the people that were there the weekend that we stayed. Watch for lower hanging branches if you have a larger RV or motorhome. Sites appeared to be mostly dirt or gravel. - DDnDoug

We pulled in on a Thursday evening at 7:00. The office was closed (They closed at 5 which is early during the summer time at a campground.) their website welcomes walk in. There was nothing to note what sites are available to take. It was extremely frustrating. We had to wait until 9:00am the next morning to find out if we were going to have to move our pop-up camper. We didn't want to set up too much until we could find out. When the office opened she told us we had to move. She was not apologetic at all. When I asked if they have many walk ins she said yes. I asked how they are supposed to know what site to pick and she said by the map on the door. Then she said it must have blown off last night. She was clearly not telling the truth. They did not put their map on the door. I would have felt better even to get a sorry. The bathrooms were filthy and my husband found a used condom hanging from the rafters in the men's room. The price and camp sites were great so it is a shame that I won't be coming here again. - B3cky

This campground was a mixed bag. On the plus side, it sits right on the Black River, which is crystal clear, and has gorgeous scenery. The campground rents tubes, canoes and rafts, and will take you five miles up the river for a delightful float trip back down to the campground. The campground offers free firewood, and has limited supplies in the camp store. It is close to Johnson Shut Ins State Park, which is a wonderful place to spend an afternoon swimming. On the negative side, this is definitely a campground and not an RV resort! There are no full hookup sites, and the dump station was difficult to maneuver around, messy and smelly. Lots of shade trees make the sites awkward for large RV's. Sites were sandy. There are sites for horse campers, and if you don't have a horse, you definitely don't want to be in one of those sites! It seemed to us that most of the people camping here were repeat customers for many years, and we felt a bit out of place as "newbies". The office staff weren't overly friendly, and didn't seem to care whether they had our business or not. We enjoyed the river, but if we returned to that area, I think we would try one of the other campgrounds. - shayerk

We decided to leave the trailer at home and go for a weekend of tent camping and canoeing on the Current River. Our original destination was Pulltite Campground, but it was full, so we ended up here. I'm so glad we did. We have actually camped twice this month at Round Springs. We did see some pop-ups backed into the primitive sites, but there is not a whole lot of room for anything else (as mentioned in a previous post). The only negative that I have is the shower room, it was impossible to shower without getting everything soaked. I ended up taking a waterproof bag with everything in it, and my kids and I had to do some creative maneuvering to keep everything dry. This was a very minor inconvenience for me , and we do plan to return. - rn2icu

I practically grew up in this campground. When I was a teen, we tent camped here at least twice a summer, and sometimes many more. The tent sites are mostly shady. The terrain is very hilly so finding level tent sites can be a challenge. But tent camping is not what I wanted to review. I camped in one of the brand new electrical sites in the campground. The sites were fairly large, and mostly level. Pretty easy access for parking as far as I am concerned. One IMPORTANT thing, you HAVE to put something under your support legs or jack supports. The asphalt is soft and you will sink in the Missouri sunshine! I had nylon pads under my front supports and even they sunk in the sunshine! The sites didn't have as much room as many of the camps that I have camped at. The ARE 50 amp service which was problematic for me because I didn't have the 50 to 30 conversion pigtail. Luckily the park ranger lent me one with relatively little hassle at all. There was water at the site, no sewer however. Clean out can be tricky with larger rigs. Can be challenging to get close enough to the dump station. - Stlheadake

NOTE: THIS PARK DOES NOT HAVE 30 AMP ELECTRIC SERVICE, though it does have 50 amp and 20 amp service. The national park service recently built six new RV sites near the middle of this park (sites 51 - 56). These sites are asphalt and right next to each other. All six sites have water, a 50A plug, and a 20A plug - but NO 30A plug. The park host mentioned that he had a couple of 50A to 30A adapters, which does bypass any protection that one would get from running too many items at once. There is space in the box for a 30A plug, but the host did not know if there were plans to install any. Our landing gear sank about one-half inch in the asphalt during our stay. Other than these minor issues, the park is very nice. It is located adjacent to the upper Current River and Round Spring. There is a great place to swim and play in the water. There are several places nearby to rent a tube or canoe and play in the crystal clear river, which goes through the park. The showers were not very clean. Note that the web site shows many other sites. These other sites have no hook-ups and most are NOT suitable for an RV as they are nothing more than a pull-off to park a car. Therefore, I only listed the RV suitable sites. - tundracamper

This is a lovely rustic campground in a beautiful area along the Current River. There are flush toilets and sort of warm showers though we didn't use them. The sites are grass with occasional patches of sand, and many have nice shade. Surprisingly for a rustic, NPS campground, many of the sites are big enough for large trailers and 5th wheels. A few sites would be ok for motorhomes too. Be aware of trees as you get into your site though. The campsites generally require a lot of leveling, but the end result is worth it. Note the campground fills completely during the summer boating season, and it fills weekends even in the spring and fall so reservations should be used if you really want to stay here. We like to spend a week here each fall. No cell service, no satellite view since you are in a deep river valley. - UTTransplant

Last year the restrooms were clean and sanitary. Last week 7/19/13 the restrooms were hot meaning no air circulation, and they smelled bad. The campground allows generators which are loud and take away from the nature affect. Neighboring campers stayed up to 1:00 a.m yelling, cussing and laughing out loud. Did not see or hear of a camp host or park ranger inspecting the camp site after 8:00 p.m. Someone near the camp host site was screaming the F word over and over during the night. We heard this person scream the F word over 12 times in one hour at 11:00 p.m. Where was camp security? All they need to do is use a little bleach water to clean the rest rooms. Also turn on any kind of fan in the hot rest room. Stagnet air with a bad foul odor is not pleasent. Also, the showers only had cold water. It did not matter since the shower room temp was very hot and the smell was bad I did not stay in the cold shower for more than a few seconds. I was glad to leave the shower to breath and cool down. - jimhmays

A very nice secluded park along the Current River. We had a particular site that was just a few steps from the river with our own private sandy beach. No hookups, but it seemed to be generator-friendly, and there is a water spigot centrally located to fill your tanks as needed. We just stopped for one night, but it appeared to be a popular camping destination. Self-registration center; $14.00 a night. - JaredWPhillips

What a pleasant surprise this campground was-- we practically had it entirely to ourselves. It was hard to choose a campsite-- they were all long, level and shaded, plus each one had a level area for a tent. In addition to the parking spur, fire ring and picnic table, each site had a counter height table with a shelf above that, all sheltered by a roof, where you could do your meal prep. There was no electricity or dump station. Vault toilets were located throughout the campground. There were several water spigots and some were threaded so you could fill your tank. The campground has a trail that lets you access the 12-mile hike/bike trail that encircles the lake. We used this trail to reach the boat launch where they had a nice shady, waterfront picnic area. Further down the trail (or accessible by car) was a lovely beach area that appeared to be locally popular. The beach restroom did have flush toilets and coin operated showers. The lake is 440 acres and has a no wake rule. There is also pedestrian access from this lake-front trail to the Trace Creek section of the Ozark Trail--- Missouri's long distance hiking trail. The campground has 39 single sites, 7 double sites, 9 walk-in tent sites, and 4 group sites. Some of these are available for reservation on recreation.gov. Our rate reflected the access pass discount, but there is no discount on the double sites. - midcenturynana
