Keokuk, IA

Hickory Haven Campground

50 Tent Sites

Situated on 27 shaded acres just north of Keokuk, Iowa, Hickory Haven Campground has built a devoted following since 1993 by offering a well-rounded, family-friendly camping experience at the confluence of the Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers—one of the most historically significant waterways in the American Midwest. Half a mile off Highway 61/218 with quick access to both the river corridor and Keokuk's attractions, the campground combines full hookup sites, a well-equipped pavilion, and a range of activities that make it easy to fill a long weekend without leaving the property. The river culture of southeastern Iowa surrounds the entire experience. Full hookup sites are shaded and well-maintained, with water, electric, and sewer hookups, picnic tables, and clean restrooms complemented by laundry facilities and a general store. A pavilion equipped with a fridge, griddle, BBQ grill, and gas fire pit makes group gatherings comfortable, and outdoor movie nights with popcorn add a social dimension to summer evenings. Walking trails wind through the property's wooded terrain, and a serene fishing pond provides immediate angling access. Pickleball courts, cornhole, a playground, a dog park, EV charging, and community fire pits round out an unusually complete amenity package for a property of this size. The natural setting of southeastern Iowa has a quiet, river-valley beauty that rewards attention. The campground's heavy shade canopy—hickories, oaks, and cottonwoods—creates a cool, dappled atmosphere even on hot summer days, and the sounds of the property carry the character of a Midwestern camping tradition that goes back generations. Stargazing from the campground on clear nights is excellent, and the general pace of the grounds is unhurried in a way that contrasts pleasantly with busier resort destinations. Keokuk sits at the confluence of the Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers and offers genuine historical depth. Lock and Dam No. 19, the largest lock on the entire Mississippi River system, is a local landmark worth visiting for the engineering spectacle alone. The Mississippi River National Wildlife Refuge flanks the corridor with outstanding birding—bald eagles winter along the Keokuk stretch in impressive numbers—and the broader Great River Road connects to river towns in both directions. Mark Twain's hometown of Hannibal, Missouri, is less than an hour south for a deeper dive into Mississippi River literary and cultural history. Hickory Haven Campground is a warm-weather operation that books up for summer weekends through a combination of loyal returning guests and destination campers drawn to the river country. The combination of full hookups, recreational amenities, a shaded natural setting, and proximity to the Mississippi makes it a standout campground in an often-overlooked corner of Iowa. Whether you're following the Great River Road, exploring the lock and dam culture of the upper Mississippi, or simply looking for a well-run campground with good shade and solid amenities, Hickory Haven delivers. Reserve your site and discover what southeastern Iowa's river country has to offer.

Gravois Mills, MO

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.

Eddyville, KY

Indian Point RV Park

29 RV Sites

Indian Point RV Park occupies a lakeside position on the peaceful shores of Lake Barkley in Eddyville, Kentucky — a campground in the heart of the Land Between the Lakes region that western Kentucky and Tennessee share, where two vast reservoirs and 170,000 acres of national recreation area create one of the most comprehensive outdoor recreation environments in the American South. For guests who want immediate lake access alongside the full outdoor programming of the LBL region, Indian Point's location on Lake Barkley's Lyon County shoreline delivers. Spacious, shaded RV sites are arranged across well-maintained grounds with the lush greenery that the humid western Kentucky climate produces throughout the growing season, and fire pit areas provide the social gathering infrastructure for evening hours at the lake. The practical amenity focus — comfortable sites, lake access, and a relaxed family-friendly atmosphere — suits the Lake Barkley audience, which tends to arrive with boats, fishing gear, and an agenda that revolves around the water rather than organized campground programming. A welcoming, community-oriented atmosphere makes first-time guests feel like returning visitors within a day of arrival. Pets are welcome throughout the property. Lake Barkley — formed by Barkley Dam on the Cumberland River and opened in 1966 — spans over 57,000 acres across western Kentucky and Tennessee with 1,004 miles of shoreline and a fishery that consistently produces crappie, largemouth bass, Kentucky spotted bass, catfish, and sauger in numbers that sustain a dedicated regional fishing community year-round. The lake's protected coves and relatively undeveloped shoreline character distinguish it from more commercially developed Tennessee lakes, and the overall quality of a Lake Barkley sunset from the campground's shoreline is worth the trip in its own right. Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, spanning the narrow peninsula between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake, encompasses 170,000 acres of managed backcountry with hiking and mountain biking on over 200 miles of trails, camping at backcountry sites, and wildlife viewing that includes a significant population of wild elk — one of the largest elk herds east of the Mississippi — as well as bison in the Elk and Bison Prairie. The Woodlands Nature Station and Golden Pond Planetarium within LBL add educational programming that extends family stays beyond water recreation. Bald eagles winter along the lake corridor in significant numbers, and the December-through-February window produces some of the best eagle viewing in the region. Indian Point RV Park serves guests through the outdoor season, with summer bringing peak lake recreation demand and LBL's full interpretive programming active. Fall is an excellent alternative season — the LBL hardwood foliage is reliably attractive in October, fishing pressure drops, and the elk viewing season in the Elk and Bison Prairie reaches its most active rutting period. Reserve ahead for summer holiday weekends, when Lake Barkley's campground inventory in Lyon and Lyon County fills from both regional regulars and guests traveling specifically for the western Kentucky lake experience.

Lost Acres RV Park

72 RV Sites

Lost Acres RV Park in Monticello, Indiana, offers 72 full-hookup back-in RV sites within a half mile of Indiana Beach Amusement Park, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. A renovated outdoor pool, mini-golf, disc golf course, craft room, and library sit under mature oaks in White County's lake district. Seventy-two back-in sites run in 30-amp and 50-amp categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 40 feet. Note the 40-foot cap before booking a larger rig. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The office is open 9am to 5pm daily. A renovated outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, a disc golf course, game room, arcade, clubhouse, craft room, library, billiards, basketball, volleyball, pickleball, corn hole, a pond for fishing, and a playground filling the grounds. Planned activities run through the season. The craft room and library are unusual finds at a park this size and give guests something to do on a rainy afternoon. Pets are welcome. The setting is distinctly Midwestern: wooded campsites under mature oaks, Lake Shafer and Lake Freeman a short walk away, and the rumble of Indiana Beach's roller coasters carrying across the water. The amusement park is a half mile off, which makes this practical for families who want to walk rather than drive and park. Summer is decisively the season, tracking the amusement park's operating calendar. Reserve well ahead for June through August weekends.
