Customer Reviews
Great place right on the river. Great IF there aren't many people. If it's close to full, I would stay away, as the spots are right on top of each other without trees/shrubs to serve as dividers.
08/11/2024 Neat little place along the Mississippi. Seen camping spots. Nice little park with a few pavilions with picnic tables and grills. There is an old steam engine on the property. Directly across the river is a view of Tower Rock which is in Missouri.
This was a fantastic location. Nestle between two foothills along the Mississippi River it provided a pictureques place to bunk down for the night. Check in was easy and well priced. I would recommend this location to anyone.
We never saw a host or ranger. We checked in for 2 nights, came and went, never seeing anyone in charge. Other campers guided us to the few sites with working electric hookups.
Legendary location of folklore and other great stories! One pretty site to see đź’™
