Cherokee Lakes Campground

Cellar Door

Worse tent camping of my life, camp sights are located in the middle if a flood plain

Stayed here the weekend of 5/14 to try out full hook ups on my new camper. Have to say it exceeded my expectations. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, even offering to help me hook up since it was my first time. It was a very quite campground as it seems like there are a lot of seasonal renters. There is some road noise but it wasn't enough to bother us. I did not get a chance to fish but a guy said he was catching catfish. I would stay here again.

My family and I had a great time and we will definitely be back. We went primitive (tent) camping and there were only about 3-4 other people camping around us at a time during our weekend stay, but the RV side was packed. Make sure to use plenty of mosquito and tic repellent while you're there and there is a small store located in the front office to buy some if you forget. For my husband, our 1 year old, and myself in a 3 person tent we paid $20 a night. Checked in Friday at 2pm and check out time was Sunday at 12pm, but the owners told us to take our time there was no rush so it was more like 1pm. The owners are a very sweet older couple who were very helpful. The list of rules we were given said you cant bring your own firewood, but we did and they didn't mind. They also sell bundles of wood for $5 each which is cheaper than anywhere I've seen around. There's a pool that closes when the sun sets, and a lake for fishing all night if you choose to. We rented the paddle boat for $10 an hour. They have an exercise room, and laundry room but we didn't use it. The restroom was very clean and so were the showers. For tent camping there was one portajohn which was also very clean. I highly recommend this place and will be returning for fun weekend camp getaways.

Have been staying here about a year and a half now and having been in the traveling medical business, I had stayed in several parks across the southeast and Midwest. Plus two other campgrounds here in the STL area. This is by FAR the best "bang for your buck". One thing that made an impression on me when I came up check it out, the owner and I hopped on the golf cart and he took me around the entire place to check it out and expressed to me what he was doing to upgrade the place. He cares (and lives on property). Now after all this time, he's made good on his promises and done the things he's said he would do. And now the shower house is being remodeled. Nice, quiet and friendly folks. And I love being in the country without hearing jets and railroads nearby. Great place. Very comfortable here
