Coconuts RV Resort

39 RV Sites, 5 Houses

Coconuts RV Resort in Gravois Mills, Missouri, is an adults-only property offering 39 full-hookup back-in RV sites and five houses on the Gravois Arm of Lake of the Ozarks, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet behind a gated entrance. Poolside and premium lakeview categories join a standard tier, with a swim-up bar, water park, splash pad, and marina. Thirty-nine back-in sites run in poolside, premium lakeview, and standard categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. Naming categories poolside and lakeview tells you exactly where you will be. Five houses round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, showers, and golf cart rentals handle the practical side. One thing to know before booking: this is an adults-only resort, which is precisely why most guests choose it. The swim-up bar at the adult pool is the signature, with a water park, splash pad, beach, and marina alongside. Boat rentals open the lake for boating, water sports, and swimming, with a fitness center, sports courts, pickleball, biking, a playground, dog park, pavilion, and live music at Coconuts Bar and Grill filling the rest. The property sits at the 7-mile mark of the Gravois Arm, and it has built one of the most genuinely resort-oriented lakefront campground experiences in the Midwest — closer in feel to a Caribbean-styled beach club than a campground. Summer lake season drives demand hard. Reserve well ahead for Memorial Day through Labor Day.

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. Categories publish their exact length — 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, and 31 feet and up — alongside prime view sites, a boat ramp, boat docks, and private sand beaches. One hundred twenty-six back-in sites run in premium categories sized at 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, and 31 feet, plus a 26-foot prime view tier, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. 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. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand and fills the corridor. Reserve well ahead for Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Rustic Trails RV Park

10 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Rustic Trails RV Park in Phillipsburg, Missouri, offers 10 full-hookup pull-through RV sites and five tent sites in the Ozarks, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 116 feet — an unusually generous length allowance for a park this size. An outdoor pool, on-site lake, and woodland walking trails round out a family-oriented property. Ten pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 116 feet. Every site pulls through, and the 116-foot capacity handles essentially any rig with a tow. Five tent sites cover simpler camping. Laundry, propane fills, a dump station, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a lake on the property for fishing and swimming. A game room, playground, pavilion, community fire pit, volleyball, and woodland walking trails fill the grounds. For 10 sites, the amenity set is genuinely broad, and the family atmosphere is much of what brings guests back. Phillipsburg sits in the south-central Missouri Ozarks, where forested hills, spring-fed streams, and clear lakes over dolomite and limestone topography create the landscape that has made this a preferred destination for Missouri and Midwest visitors seeking quiet, affordable outdoor recreation. The park serves the Ozark season, with summer lake and pool use driving the peak and fall color bringing a second wave. With 10 RV sites, reserve well ahead for summer weekends and holiday periods.

Rustic Meadows RV Park

5 RV Sites

Rustic Meadows RV Park in Strafford, MO, offers 5 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 70 feet. Every site is a pull-thru carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Nothing needs unhitching and the 70-foot maximum takes a long coach — five sites, all of them easy. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, propane fills, a dump station, and a community fire pit cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a recreation center with ping pong, a pavilion, a playground, and fishing fill the grounds — a lot of amenity for a five-site park. Strafford sits minutes east of Springfield on a stretch of Historic Route 66, in a corner of the Ozarks within reach of Branson and Springfield's attractions. From I-44 eastbound, take exit 88, turn left toward Evergreen Road, then right on Evergreen. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Five pull-thrus go fast — call ahead on a holiday weekend.

Camp Mi Casa on the Route RV Park

51 RV Sites

Camp Mi Casa on the Route RV Park in Carthage, Missouri, offers 51 full-hookup RV sites directly on Historic Route 66, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in, pull-through, and premium pull-through categories sit alongside an outdoor pool, pickleball courts, and a beach, minutes from Carthage's Victorian square. Fifty-one sites run in back-in, pull-through, and premium pull-through configurations, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet. Laundry, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side. The layout prioritizes the social character that makes Route 66 campgrounds distinctive — travelers comparing notes and planning the next day's drive over evening fires. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the warm months, with pickleball courts and swimming filling the rest. A golf course is nearby. The amenity set is practical rather than elaborate, which suits a park where most guests are moving through on a route rather than settling in for a week. Carthage sits on one of the Mother Road's most authentic and well-preserved stretches, and the town's Victorian commercial square is minutes from the park. The property serves both dedicated Route 66 travelers making the full pilgrimage and visitors who find the city en route to somewhere else. Directions from Springfield: continue on West I-44 to Carthage Exit 18B/I-49 North, north on I-49 to Exit 53 for Webb City/Central Avenue, left toward Webb City heading west on Highway 171, then the second exit at Brooklyn Heights and left at the end. Summer Route 66 travel is the peak — reserve ahead.

Basswood Resort

57 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Basswood Resort in Platte City, Missouri, offers 57 full-hookup RV sites and five tent sites 30 minutes from downtown Kansas City, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 85 feet.

Fifty-seven sites span standard back-in 20/30/50-amp, standard pull-thru 20/30/50-amp, standard, deluxe back-in, deluxe pull-thru, and premium back-in categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 85 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables.

A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, showers, and golf cart rentals handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a disc golf course, jumping pillow, fitness center, clubhouse, gaga ball, pickleball, basketball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a lake, playground, and dog park filling the rest. Fishing and planned activities round it out, with a golf course, casino, and amusement park nearby. Platte County feels genuinely rural — livestock pastures, creek valleys, and Missouri hardwood forest — while keeping Kansas City's barbecue, jazz history, and professional sports 30 minutes away. Kansas City International Airport is close, which makes this practical for fly-in guests picking up a rig. Summer drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall the most comfortable months. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends and Kansas City event dates.

Bull Creek RV Park

15 RV Sites

Bull Creek RV Park in Branson, MO, offers 15 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come in two categories, standard back-in and premium back-in, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The 40-foot maximum keeps this to mid-size rigs. Laundry, a pavilion, a community fire pit, and WiFi cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a dog park. At 15 sites this is a small, quiet park rather than a resort — no pool, no arcade, no queue for the laundry — which is a genuine relief in a town built around volume. Branson delivers everything else: the theater district, the Ozark hills, and Table Rock Lake and Lake Taneycomo for boating, all within a short drive of the gate. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Branson's show season runs spring through Christmas and this park is small, so reserve well ahead.

America's Best Campground

97 RV Sites, 3 Wagons

America's Best Campground in Branson Township, MO, offers 97 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites and 3 wagons, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two categories, standard 30/50-amp pull-thrus and small 30/50-amp pull-thrus, both carrying water, sewer, electric, and cable TV with site-delivered WiFi, a picnic table, and a barbecue. Every site is a pull-thru, so nothing needs unhitching. EV charging is available. Laundry, a general store, a boutique shop, propane fills, a dump station, on-site dining, golf cart rentals, and a concierge cover the practical side, with cabins alongside. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a spa, a game room with an arcade, a pavilion, a community fire pit, basketball, horseshoes, corn hole, gaga ball, gem panning, a playground, and planned activities fill the grounds. The campground sits off MO-248, the Shepherd of the Hills Highway, three quarters of a mile north of the Mansion Theater, just outside Branson's entertainment corridor in the Missouri Ozarks. Rates for both pull-thru sizes are on the booking page. Branson's show season runs spring through Christmas — reserve well ahead.

Tall Pines Campground

48 RV Sites

Tall Pines Campground in Branson, Missouri, offers 48 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet, just off State Highway 265. Back-in and pull-through categories join an outdoor pool, game room, and dog park in an Ozark Mountain setting minutes from Silver Dollar City. Forty-eight sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with cable TV and site WiFi. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a game room, playground, pavilion, and dog park across the grounds and hiking, swimming, and fishing from the area. The campground has earned a place in the top three percent of RV parks in America, which reflects consistent upkeep rather than amenity scale — "well-maintained" means something specific here. The position off Highway 265 is the practical advantage. Silver Dollar City is just down the road and the broader Branson entertainment corridor is within genuinely easy reach, without the premium pricing that the resort-area properties surrounding the major attractions command. The campground serves the Branson season, which runs long — the entertainment corridor draws visitors from spring through the Christmas light season in November and December. Summer family demand and fall show season are the peaks. Reserve well ahead for Silver Dollar City festival weekends, when Branson lodging tightens across the board.

Candy Cane RV Park & Campground

9 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Candy Cane RV Park & Campground in Steelville, Missouri, offers nine full-hookup RV sites and three tent sites three minutes from downtown, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. An outdoor pool, mini-golf, and a family-owned operation that charges nothing extra for the shower house or dump station make this an intentionally small-scale Ozarks stop. Nine sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp back-in and 50-amp pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Three tent sites cover simpler camping. Laundry, restrooms, showers, a dump station, and WiFi handle the practical side — and the shower house and dump station carry no charge, which small family-owned Ozark campgrounds maintain as a point of hospitality. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with an 18-hole miniature golf course, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, and a pavilion filling the grounds. Swimming, fishing, hiking, and picnicking run from the area, with live music through the season and a state park nearby. Pets are welcome. Steelville sits in the Meramec River valley at the heart of the Missouri Ozarks, where spring-fed streams, float rivers, and karst geology of the Salem Plateau created Missouri's float-trip camping culture. The Meramec River is five miles away and Meramec Spring Park — with its natural spring, trout hatchery, and trail system — is ten minutes out. Downtown Steelville's restaurants, including Rich's Famous Burgers and the Spare Rib Inn, are three minutes from the sites. Float season drives summer demand. With nine sites, reserve well ahead for any warm-weather weekend.

Port of Kimberling

112 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites, 26 Hotel Rooms, 13 Suites

Port of Kimberling in Kimberling City, Missouri, offers 112 RV sites, 48 cabin, hotel room, and suite units, and four tent sites across 220 acres overlooking Table Rock Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 85 feet, open all year. Prime and Prime Electric categories join premium back-in and pull-through tiers, with the largest full-service marina on the lake and an on-site storm shelter. One hundred twelve sites span basic RV/tent, standard RV, premium back-in, premium pull-thru, Prime, and Prime Electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 85 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Read the category carefully — the Prime Electric tier carries electric without the full hookup set. Forty-eight cabins, hotel rooms, and suites — including three luxury cabin types — and four tent sites make the lodging range exceptional. A dump station and restrooms handle the practical side, and a storm shelter sits on the property, which is a genuine safety feature in Missouri rather than a marketing line. The marina anchors everything, with boat, pontoon, and WaveRunner rentals opening Table Rock for boating, fishing, and swimming. An outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, recreation center, beach, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest, with hiking, live music, and planned activities. Table Rock is one of the Ozarks' most beautiful and productive lakes, with Branson close. Summer lake season drives demand. Reserve well ahead.
