This place is beautiful. The bathrooms are well kept. It's so close to Top of the Rock so that's a must-do. It has a great playground for the younger kids. It has a nice swim area. Bring your kayaks too. If you have to travel through this area, you HAVE to stay here! We will be back for sure.

Had a great time!! Park is kept up well, camp host was nice, answered all my questions, and has a fun sense of humor. Lady that cleans the bathrooms and showers is diligent and nice.
Got to relive childhood memories and create new ones. Lake being high wasn't a problem during our stay.

Fantastic hosts but the most over packed CoE campground we've seen. Vehicles parked on the grass and one particular site had 2 trucks and 3 cars attempting to fit in their site with no less than 15 people. Not sure why they couldn't park in the visitor parking area. The last visitor to that site parked their car in the empty site next to us until the host has them remove it. But it didn't go far, it ended up half in the road and half on the grass still partially blocking the site next to us. The new arrival next to us had to find them and have them move the car so they could back in. The new arrival had a truck, car, boat and 5th wheel so, needless to say, the area was packed to the gills with boats and unnecessary vehicles. To top it off, the sites are very close together. Ridiculous.

My stay at Old Mill was a wonderful one. The campsite has friendly helpful staff, clean and well kept public facilities. The grounds are well kept and traveling alone I felt very safe. Overall, I would recommend this campsite to anyone. Regardless of the site you chose the views are beautiful, relaxing and breath taking. I will definitely be staying there again in the future. Also, it is fairly close to Branson if you are a family and want a less expensive way to have a vacation. Highly recommend.
