Little Sinkin Creek RV Resort & UTV Campground

2 Onsite RV/Trailers

Little Sinkin Creek RV Resort & UTV Campground in Bunker, Missouri, is built entirely around off-highway vehicle recreation, offering RV rentals — the Cherokee and the Cougar — alongside full-hookup sites on a big-rig-friendly property with direct trail access. A dump station and WiFi serve riders in one of the Ozarks' most trail-rich landscapes. The two on-site RV rentals, named the Cherokee and the Cougar, let riders arrive with a trailer full of machines and no rig at all. Full-hookup sites accommodate guests bringing their own, on a layout sized for big rigs hauling UTV trailers. A dump station and WiFi handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. Trail access is the entire proposition. UTV and ATV trails run directly from the campground, which removes the trailering-out routine that most OHV trips require. Fishing, swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, and biking are all available in the surrounding country, and off-roading is the reason nearly everyone books. Bunker sits in Reynolds County, one of Missouri's least densely populated, in the heart of the Mark Twain National Forest. The Current River watershed, the volcanic shut-ins, and Taum Sauk Mountain — the state's highest summit — all converge within a short ride, which is why the OHV community treats this stretch of the Ozarks as a destination rather than a stop. Riding season runs spring through fall, with fall color weekends drawing the heaviest traffic. With two rentals and a small site count, reserve well ahead for any weekend.

Ozark Outdoors Resort

Few Ozark destinations pack as much river adventure into a single address as Ozark Outdoors Resort, a sprawling riverfront property on the Meramec that has been welcoming families to Leasburg, Missouri, since 1960. The resort lines one and a half miles of the Meramec's scenic banks with more than 200 RV sites, motel rooms, cabins, and tent sites—enough variety to accommodate any travel style under the towering hardwoods and limestone bluffs that define this corner of Crawford County. A full roster of water-based recreation, aerial adventure, and evening dining ensures guests rarely need to leave the property once they've settled in. RV sites range from primitive to full hookup with 20/30/50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer, and a picnic table and fire ring accompany each site regardless of hookup level. Cabin options span rustic Country Log Cabins and Deluxe Kozy Cabins to motel rooms, condos, and group retreat lodging, giving the resort the flexibility to host family reunions, corporate outings, and church groups as easily as solo travelers. The Meramec Mercantile supplies camping essentials on-site, while the Paddlers Bar and Grill serves seasonal meals and cold drinks at the water's edge. Float trips on the Meramec, Courtois, and Huzzah Rivers form the beating heart of the Ozark Outdoors experience, with canoe, kayak, raft, and tube rentals available for half-day or multi-day journeys through crystalline Ozark spring-fed water. For those who prefer their adventure overhead, the Floating Treetops Aerial Park delivers 36 unique challenge elements across six ziplines suspended among the forest canopy—a course that engages first-time climbers and seasoned adventure seekers alike. Sand volleyball, horseshoes, and a swimming pool add land-based options when the river crowd thins in the late afternoon. The Meramec River corridor hosts some of Missouri's most spectacular cave country, with Onondaga Cave State Park just upstream offering guided boat and lantern tours through one of the Midwest's finest show caves. Meramec State Park, a few miles east on Highway 185, provides additional hiking trails, cave tours, and a family aquatic center popular with summer visitors. The resort's position between St. Louis—about 75 miles northeast—and the Missouri Ozarks interior makes it a natural launching point for exploring the Salem Plateau, Ozark National Scenic Riverways, and the Current River corridor to the south. Float trip season runs April through October, with June and July delivering the warmest water and the most festive atmosphere on the Meramec, when the resort's campground fills with the laughter of families who have made the Ozark Outdoors float trip an annual tradition. Spring and fall bring lower crowds, quieter campsites, and a more contemplative Ozark experience for those who prefer their river adventure without holiday weekend energy. Reservations are strongly recommended for summer weekends and holiday blocks—the combination of riverfront camping and the Floating Treetops aerial park draws visitors from across the Midwest, and popular cabin styles book months in advance.

Blue Springs Ranch

142 RV Sites, 33 Cabins, 65 Tent Sites

Blue Springs Ranch in Bourbon, Missouri, offers 142 RV sites, 33 cabins, and 65 tent sites on a spring-fed Ozarks property in Crawford County, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 65 feet. A zip line, horseback riding, kayak and boat rentals, and spring-fed swimming run on site, and the ranch is open all year. One hundred forty-two sites run in back-in, water-and-electric back-in, and pull-through configurations carrying 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 65 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Thirty-three cabins and 65 tent sites make this one of the larger and more varied properties in the Missouri Ozarks. A general store, laundry, dump station, RV storage, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The spring water is the difference. Constant clear cold water feeds the creek and ponds, setting the ranch apart from the warm-water lake resorts that dominate Missouri summer camping. Swimming, kayaking, paddle boats, boating, and fishing all run from the property, with kayak and boat rentals on site, plus a zip line, horseback riding, paddle boarding, an outdoor pool, and a beach. A playground, pavilion, and barn round out the grounds, with planned activities through the season and strong birding in the surrounding timber. The ranch also operates as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. You can reserve a cabin or campsite any time of year, and groups can be accommodated year-round with notice. Note that floating and trail rides close from October 31 through April 15 — worth checking if either is central to your trip. Summer is peak for the spring-fed water. Reserve well ahead.

Happy Pappy's Montauk RV Park

8 RV Sites

Near Salem, Missouri—in Dent County in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks at the edge of the Mark Twain National Forest, where the Current River begins its spring-fed journey south through the Ozark National Scenic Riverways—Happy Pappy's Montauk RV Park & Lodging provides a year-round base for the spring creek fishing, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, stargazing, and Ozark forest exploration that the Montauk area concentrates in one of Missouri's most celebrated outdoor recreation landscapes. With full hookup sites including 30 and 50-amp options, boat rentals, a boat ramp, dining on-site, a playground, clean bathrooms and showers, and the honor-system firewood and ice sales that characterize a genuine Ozark campground, Happy Pappy's delivers the essentials and lets the landscape do the rest. Full hookup back-in and pull-through sites with 30 and 50-amp service provide the RV infrastructure alongside the property's natural setting—fire pits and picnic tables at each site, WiFi connectivity, clean bathrooms and showers, and a boat ramp and boat rentals serving the Current River access that is the campground's primary outdoor recreation asset. A dining facility serves guests who want meals without driving to Salem, and horseback riding access puts the surrounding Ozark National Forest's trail system within reach for equestrian guests who want the Missouri hills from the saddle rather than on foot. The honor-system store with firewood and ice sales reflects the Ozark campground culture's trust-based hospitality tradition. Salem sits in Dent County on the Ozark Plateau in the Current River's upper watershed, in the upland terrain where the plateau's dolostone and chert bedrock creates the springs and cave systems that give the Ozarks their distinctive hydrology. Montauk State Park, a few miles east, protects the Montauk Spring—one of the largest springs in Missouri and the headwaters of the Current River—in a state park whose cold, constant-temperature spring creek is designated a Blue Ribbon trout fishery and stocked year-round with rainbow trout by the Missouri Department of Conservation. The park's historic trout hatchery, one of the oldest fish hatcheries in Missouri, supplements the wild-capture tradition with the managed population that makes the spring creek fishing consistently productive. The Current River and its main tributary, the Jacks Fork, are protected within the Ozark National Scenic Riverways—the first national recreation area created specifically to protect a free-flowing river system, established in 1964 to preserve the Current and Jacks Fork in their natural state. The riverways' 134 miles of protected corridor provide canoe and kayak float access through the Ozark forested corridor in one of the country's finest flatwater paddling environments, with the crystal-clear spring-fed water and the riverside gravel bar camping that make the Current River one of America's most beloved canoe rivers. The dark skies of Dent County's rural Ozarks, far from any significant urban light pollution, create the stargazing conditions that the property's own description highlights as an activity. Happy Pappy's operates year-round, with the trout fishing season in Montauk State Park running continuously through the year—the park stocking its spring creek throughout the winter when the cold water temperature keeps the trout active and the crowds thin. Summer brings the Current River's canoeing and floating to peak popularity from Memorial Day through Labor Day, when the gravel bars and the river's swimming holes fill with Midwestern families on the float trip that is Missouri's quintessential summer outdoor tradition. Reserve your site at Happy Pappy's Montauk and let the Current River's crystal water, the Montauk Spring's blue ribbon trout, and the Ozark dark sky deliver the Missouri outdoors at its most genuine.

Kaskaskia River Camping & RV Park

34 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

On the banks of the Kaskaskia River in New Athens, Illinois—in the rolling agricultural landscape of St. Clair County between East St. Louis and the old river towns of the American Bottom—Kaskaskia River Camping and RV Park provides a straightforward, waterfront RV experience in a part of the Midwest that most highway travelers pass through without stopping and fishing-focused river campers seek out specifically for what the Kaskaskia delivers. The river's character, the property's waterfront sites, and the genuine quiet of a small-town Illinois campground in an agricultural landscape represent the specific version of Midwest camping that city-adjacent travelers find restorative in ways that resort campgrounds with crowded pool decks simply cannot replicate. Full hookup sites with electric, water, and sewer connections provide the basic infrastructure for comfortable stays, and the park's seasonal water schedule—available April 1 through October 31—reflects the operational reality of a Midwest river campground that closes water service rather than risks freeze damage during the colder months. Electric service continues year-round for guests who use the campground during the colder season. Evening fire pits, picnic areas, and a pet-friendly policy fill out the on-site amenity picture, and the park's location on the water puts fishing access immediately adjacent to the campsite rather than requiring a drive to a separate launch facility. Hike and bike camping sites are available for guests exploring the surrounding gravel road network on two wheels. The Kaskaskia River flows south from central Illinois through a landscape of bottomland forest, agricultural fields, and the small river communities that define the working landscape of the American Midwest's interior. The river's character in this stretch—wide, flat, and moving with the deliberate pace of a prairie river on a gentle gradient—supports a diverse fish population including bass, catfish, crappie, and the white perch species common in the Kaskaskia's lower reaches. The Peabody River King State Fish and Wildlife Area, accessible from the park, extends the fishing and wildlife observation options beyond what the river frontage alone provides, and the bottomland forest character of the surrounding landscape changes significantly with the seasons—spectacular with spring wildflowers, productive for summer bird diversity, and reflective in the quiet of late fall. The American Bottom surrounding New Athens carries deep historical significance as one of the most important pre-Columbian cultural landscapes in North America. Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site and UNESCO World Heritage Site—the largest pre-Columbian city north of Mexico, whose earthworks include Monks Mound, the largest prehistoric mound in the Americas—is within practical driving range and provides one of the most extraordinary archaeological experiences available anywhere in the Midwest. The surrounding town of Collinsville, East St. Louis, and the greater St. Louis metropolitan area across the river extend the regional day-trip possibilities for guests who want to combine river camping with urban cultural programming. Kaskaskia River Camping and RV Park is open year-round with seasonal water service, making it most comfortable from April through October when the full hookup infrastructure is operational. The park is ideal for fishing-focused travelers who want immediate river access, cyclists exploring the regional trail network, and guests seeking the genuine quiet of a small Illinois river town campground without the resort pricing that larger facilities command. Book your riverside site and let the Kaskaskia's working-river character provide the authentic Midwest camping experience.

Cedar Ridge RV Park & Storage

11 RV Sites

Cedar Ridge RV Park & Storage in Bakersfield, Missouri, offers 11 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet, in the Missouri Ozarks near the Arkansas border. Dry camping sites join 30-amp and 50-amp pull-throughs, with RV and boat storage on site. Eleven sites run in 30-amp pull-through, 50-amp pull-through, and dry camping categories, the serviced sites carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 60 feet. The dry camping option suits self-contained rigs at a lower rate. RV storage and boat storage are available — genuinely useful in a region where guests leave a rig or a boat between fishing trips. A dump station and pavilion handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. The park is a working RV park and self-storage facility rather than a resort, and it is straightforward about that. What it offers is a clean full-hookup site with easy access, and storage for the equipment that the region's recreation requires. Boating is nearby. Bakersfield sits on State Highway O in Ozark County's hill country just north of the Arkansas line, where the White River drains southward through some of the most productive freshwater fishing terrain in the Mid-South. The park serves traveling campers alongside the region's core visitor base — anglers, hunters, and paddlers who come to Ozark County for its rivers, lakes, and the solitude of one of Missouri's most rural corners. Fishing season drives demand spring through fall. With 11 sites, call ahead for extended stays.

Ozarks Landing RV Resort

74 RV Sites, 12 Tent Sites

Ozarks Landing RV Resort in Lake Ozark, Missouri, offers 74 full-hookup RV sites and 12 tent sites directly on Lake of the Ozarks, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Dedicated fishing pond back-in spots at both amperages join deluxe, premium, and standard categories, with boat docks, a boat ramp, and fishing pier. Seventy-four sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 50-amp, deluxe back-in 50-amp, premium, fishing pond back-in 30-amp, and fishing pond back-in 50-amp categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. The fishing pond categories put you on the water at the site, which is exactly what most guests here are after. Twelve tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. Boat docks, a boat ramp, and a fishing pier give direct lake access for boating and fishing, with an outdoor pool, pond, and playground filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Lake of the Ozarks has 1,150 miles of shoreline — more than the entire California coastline — which makes it the most extensively developed recreational lake in the Midwest and the center of Missouri's most commercially active resort economy. Bagnell Dam, the Grand Glaize arm, and the lake's restaurant and marina infrastructure are all close. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand and fills the corridor. Reserve well ahead for Memorial Day through Labor Day, with far easier availability in the spring and fall.

Laketime RV Campground

126 RV Sites

Laketime RV Campground in Osage Beach, Missouri, offers 126 full-hookup RV sites on Lake of the Ozarks, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance, open all year.

Publishing length by the foot removes every guess about fit — you know exactly what you are booking before you tow in. Accessible sites are available. A public boat launch with dock facilities and private sand swim beaches put the lake literally at your feet, with boating, swimming, and picnicking on site. A pavilion fills out the grounds, and a golf course and water park are nearby. Pets are welcome. Directions: Highway 54 to State Highway KK, northwest on KK to Duenke Drive / Walker's Cay Drive, in through the Margaritaville entrance, past the horse stables and left onto Gantner Ramp Road. Osage Beach's restaurants, pool bars, spas, and lakeside shopping are three minutes away, on a lake with 1,150 miles of shoreline.

Professional Service Enterprise

At Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri—in the Osage River impoundment where Bagnell Dam created one of the largest man-made lakes in the United States in 1931 and where the 1,150 miles of shoreline, the casino entertainment complex, and the boat rental economy have made the Lake of the Ozarks the most visited inland water destination in the Midwest—Professional Service Enterprise offers a curated portfolio of 11 fully equipped waterfront lake homes positioned from the 3 mile marker to the 43 mile marker, accommodating groups from 1 to 24 guests in properties ranging from 1-bedroom to 8-bedroom configurations. The emphasis is on private coves, private boat docks, and the fully stocked home infrastructure—linens, kitchen supplies, bath products, and hospitality provisions—that turns a Lake of the Ozarks stay from a camping trip into a lake house experience. For families and groups who want the full lake-house lifestyle rather than a campsite, this is the Lake of the Ozarks answer. Eleven waterfront properties, each with a private boat dock, provide the full range of group sizes and bedroom configurations needed for solo travelers, couples, families, and the larger family reunion or corporate group retreat market. Some properties include private pools or hot tubs—Bittersweet Palms and Lake Breeze Timbers both feature pool amenities and are positioned within walking distance of the lakeside bar and grill establishments that the Lake of the Ozarks commercial corridor is famous for. Every vacation property arrives fully stocked with bed sheets, pillow slips, bath towels and washcloths, kitchen towels, dish soap, hand soap, body wash, shampoo, toilet paper, and trash bags—the full turnkey provision list that eliminates the supply-run logistics of arriving at a lake house with nothing in the cabinet. Many properties are pet-friendly. Private boat docks at each home provide the morning-on-the-water access that is the specific appeal of a private lake house over any hotel or campground alternative. The professional service that the company name describes goes beyond property management to active concierge capacity. The team's 20-plus years of Lake of the Ozarks experience enables them to arrange boat rentals—pontoons, ski boats, jet skis—to supplement or replace the boats that guests bring; organize golf outings at the lake's multiple championship-quality courses; and coordinate the full range of activities that the lake's commercial entertainment infrastructure provides. The ability to arrive at a Lake of the Ozarks vacation home with the concierge logistics pre-arranged—boat rented, tee times booked, water sports scheduled—is the service dimension that distinguishes this operation from a standard vacation rental booking. The Lake of the Ozarks entertainment corridor on the lake's commercial sections provides the bar-and-grill, casino, and live music programming that has made the lake famous in the Missouri and Midwest vacation market. Ha Ha Tonka State Park on the lake's arm provides the natural counterpoint—castle ruins, sinkholes, natural bridge, and the karst geology of the Missouri Ozarks in its most visually dramatic form, accessible on trail from the state park's well-maintained hiking infrastructure. The Lake of the Ozarks State Park provides additional boat-in camping, equestrian trails, and water access with the state park system's management quality. Professional Service Enterprise operates year-round at Lake of the Ozarks. Summer represents peak demand for the full lake experience—boat traffic, water skiing, and the open-water swimming that the lake's warm temperatures make practical from May through September. Spring and fall offer the quieter lake experience with the Ozark hardwood color that frames the coves and hillsides in October. Contact the team to match your group size and preferred lake mile marker, arrange the concierge services that complete the lake house experience, and let the Lake of the Ozarks waterfront deliver Missouri's most celebrated inland water vacation.

Coconuts RV Resort

39 RV Sites, 5 Houses

At the 7-mile mark of the Gravois Arm on Lake of the Ozarks in Gravois Mills, Missouri, Coconuts RV Resort has built one of the most distinctly resort-oriented lakefront campground experiences in the Midwest—a property where the swim-up bar at the adult pool, live music at Coconuts Bar and Grill, a water park, a marina with boat rentals, and the particular social energy of Lake of the Ozarks summer culture combine into an experience that functions more like a tropical lake resort than a traditional campground. If the Ozarks lake life is the goal, Coconuts is the campground built specifically to deliver it at the highest available intensity. Waterfront RV sites—available on both annual and nightly rates—position guests as close to the Gravois Arm as the property's lakeside layout permits, and the resort's amenity concentration is specifically designed for the guest who came to the lake to be on the lake in every possible way. Multiple pools anchor the aquatic recreation program, including separate private adult and family pools with a swim-up bar that is the resort's most distinctive social feature. A water park extends the aquatic programming for families. A 24-hour fitness center, dog park, pickleball, and tennis courts serve the health-and-recreation-oriented guests who supplement the lake activities with on-property options. Coconuts Bar and Grill operates on-site with live music and the social energy that Lake of the Ozarks visitors specifically seek from a lakefront entertainment destination. A 16-stall shower house serves the resident and nightly guest population at the scale the resort's site count requires. Arcade games, billiards, laundry facilities, and retail shops provide the complete on-property infrastructure. The Gravois Arm's position at the Lake of the Ozarks' southern reach gives Coconuts a water character defined by the lake's recreational intensity during summer months. The 54,000-acre reservoir—created by Bagnell Dam on the Osage River in 1931 and covering 1,150 miles of shoreline—is the Midwest's most concentrated summer lake recreation destination, with boat traffic, water skiing, tubing, and the general organized chaos of a lake that exists primarily to be enjoyed. The Gravois Arm's marinas and the resort's marina-with-boat-rentals give guests who didn't trailer a watercraft the access to the lake that the entire Coconuts experience is built around. Lake of the Ozarks State Park—Missouri's largest state park—provides a natural counterpoint to the resort character of the lake's commercial development, with 85 miles of undeveloped shoreline, hiking trails, two swimming beaches, and the geology of the Ozark Plateau on full display in the park's interior. Ha Ha Tonka State Park, with its dramatic karst springs, caves, and the castle ruins of a 20th-century Ozarks estate, is one of the most unusual and visually striking natural sites in Missouri and accessible for a half-day excursion that provides welcome contrast to the lake's summer intensity. Coconuts RV Resort operates seasonally aligned with the Lake of the Ozarks recreational season—the property is at its most vibrant from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with shoulder-season programming in May and September providing a quieter alternative for guests who want the lake without the summer-weekend crowd density. The swim-up bar and live music fill the social calendar during peak season. Reserve your waterfront site early for summer holiday weekends, bring the boat or rent one from the marina, and let the Ozarks lake culture do what it was built to do.

Ember Shoals Outdoor Resort

42 RV Sites

Ember Shoals Outdoor Resort in Cotter, Arkansas, provides a classic White River tailwater fishing camp on one of the world's most celebrated trout streams, where the cold, clear flows released from Bull Shoals Dam's depths create year-round water temperatures ideal for the rainbow and brown trout that have made the White River tailwater between Bull Shoals and Norfolk Lake a pilgrimage destination for fly fishermen across North America. The park's position directly on the White River in Baxter County gives guests the immediate river access—fishing from the bank, the dock, or launching drift boats and jonboats for guided float fishing—that defines the Cotter experience for anglers whose primary purpose is time on one of the continent's most productive trout rivers. The park's facility reflects its identity as a working fishing camp built for anglers: full hookup sites, cabin rentals for the non-RV fishing party, a clubhouse, fishing guide services that provide local expertise on the White River's most productive trout holding lies and seasonal patterns, river access with boat dock, fishing pier, a store with supplies, propane fills and exchange, showers, bathrooms, laundry, and pet-friendly policies for the sporting dogs and companions that fishing trips include. The corn hole and outdoor social spaces serve the evening gathering culture of fishing camp life, and the White River's visible current from the camp creates the ambient background that reinforces the angling community identity of this Baxter County riverfront property. The White River's transformation from a warm-water Ozark stream into a world-class cold-water trout fishery is entirely attributable to the thermal stratification of Bull Shoals Lake—the cold hypolimnion water released from the dam's bottom gates throughout the year maintains water temperatures in the 45-58 degree range year-round regardless of ambient air temperature, creating a trout habitat that supports enormous rainbow and brown trout populations in a river system that the surrounding Ozark highland geology keeps exceptionally clear. The IGFA world record brown trout was caught on the White River below Bull Shoals Dam, and the river consistently produces trout in the 20-inch-plus range that draw serious fly and spin fishermen from the metropolitan areas of the Midwest and South. Cotter's position at the confluence of the White River and the North Fork of the White River creates the triangulated access to two high-quality tailwater trout streams from a single base camp, and the Buffalo National River—the first national river designated by Congress, 36 miles northwest via AR-62—provides the contrasting wilderness float trip experience in a pristine free-flowing Ozark river canyon of extraordinary beauty. Mountain Home, the Baxter County seat approximately 10 miles east, provides the restaurants, grocery, and commercial services that make extended fishing camp stays in Cotter comfortable. Ember Shoals Outdoor Resort operates year-round in Baxter County's Ozark climate, with the White River's cold tailwater temperatures supporting productive trout fishing in every season—the winter low-flow periods often produce the year's largest fish as trophy brown trout concentrate in the deep pools below the dam, and the summer crowds that warm-water lake destinations experience are absent from the Cotter tailwater where the cold, misty river retains its solitary fishing camp character regardless of season. Float fishing trips in drift boats guided by local outfitters represent the White River experience at its fullest, and the park's guide service connection provides immediate access to the expertise that makes first-time White River visitors most productive.

On-site recreation is broad: a disc golf course, sports courts, basketball, horseshoes, corn hole, a recreation center, community fire pit, and walking trails, with a lake, pond, and creek on the property for fishing, boating, and kayaking. On-site dining covers meals, and live music and planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome.
