Well maintained campground. Free showers. Easy access to the water.

Due to its remoteness, you really have to WANT to come here but it's definitely worth it. Quiet, well-kept, there's a partial Verizon signal but very solid Wi-Fi if parked near the restroom buildings. Shade trees. We stayed a week.

This was our first camping experience within the Corona virus pandemic. We arrived and were greeted by a friendly ranger as we prepared to fill our water tanks. This was a very clean area and easy to find. Another ranger came by and suggested she help us change our spot to a shadier one since they were trimming trees by our original selection, so we ended up in 33E which was shady, clean and near restrooms. We avoided using the restrooms as per park request since our trailer is self-contained, though we would have felt comfortable using it. Highlight of our trip was renting kayaks and lazily enjoying the view of the beautiful Missouri River. Peace like a river. All the staff was helpful and sincerely welcoming. Our stay was during the week so we were naturally socially distanced with a lower campground census, but there is plenty of space between sites. There is no cell service at this time, but there is Wi-Fi available. A short walk up to the park bench near the entrance will give you a signal. Have a fun and safe stay!

Couldn't find anything to complain about. They weren't very busy when we were there (late August) so it was very peacefull. We were late getting there and thought we were to late to get some firewood but the host drove through about 9 and went and got us some. The only thing some might have problems with is that if you have ATT, you will have 0 signal. That was ok with us because we were looking to get off the grid for a bit. Very nice and relaxing stay! Will go again!
