This was not our first time staying in the area, but it was our first time at Round Spring and we loved it and will definitely return! Very nice place to set up camp. We didn't float, but we saw the shuttle services throughout our stay and they seemed very friendly. The campsite we stayed at (024) was elevated ground which was wonderful. You can see in the pictures that there were designated stairways to the campsites. It did rain, but there were minimal puddles in the area and since our campsite was raised ground, we had no troubles at all!
Also:
- Camp hosts were very pleasant
- Bathrooms/showers were very clean
- Easy access to the river for swimming
- Pet friendly - our doggo had a great time!
- I have Cricket and I didn't have cell service, but this is a PLUS for me.

Restrooms were clean and there were cool things to see in the area. Only downside is that there is no cell signal so make sure to plan ahead.

Beautiful place. Kids had a blast. Checked out the town of Eminence, plus Rocky Falls, Alley Springs, Echo Bluff State Park (very nice lodge plus swimming and nice restaurant) plus went trout fishing at Montauk State Park. Some of the guys hiked parts of the Ozark Trail. The camp hosts at Round Springs were great and very helpful.

One think, there is no cell service/wifi there so if you need either then the nearest place is Echo Bluff.

Beautiful location! Only a few sites are not level and the crows can be annoying, everything else was great.

This was our second time camping at the Round Spring Campground, so that should tell you how we feel about this location. There was some noisy folks our first night, but that was before the arrival of the camp hosts. It's a shame that some people cannot adhere to the 10 pm quiet time. I guess their fun is more important than the peace and sound of nature the rest of us are there to enjoy. Speaking of the camp hosts, I didn't get her name, but she is a gem. She is so personable and friendly. That in itself causes us to want to return again. We absolutely love the campground. The facilities are well kept and who doesn't enjoy a nice shower after a day of funtivities. We saw the Round Spring herd of wild horses in the field by the group campground area just north of our camping sight. Round spring is beautiful and we even witnessed a beaver swimming out of it. There is a store just across the current river, and although they weren't open when we first arrived, April 23d, Echo Bluff State Park is just a couple of miles further north and they have a nice store inside their lodge. Round Spring campground is about 13 miles north of Eminence, where there's a Dollar General Store. Alley Mill & Spring is approximately 5 miles west of Eminence. We also visited Rocky Falls at sunrise one morning. It's about a 45 minute ride from the campground. Round Spring Campground has quickly become one of our favorite places to "get away from it all".

The down slope ramp on exiting the camping spot made it difficult to back into the camping spot. The RV camp spots are all very similar. In general we enjoyed the campgrounds. We weren't able to get any cell service in the entire area. Had to drive to a nearby town to get any cell service at all. Electric and water were both good. The space at the spot was very good, plenty of room. Entire surface was concrete.

Our end of season camping stay at Round Spring was worth the trip. Pleasant campground with excellent and varied hiking options suitable for young and old.
