I lucked out getting an electric site in the campground the day prior to arrival. The next three nights I stayed at non-electric #5, enjoying a fully shaded site with nominal insect issues. Upon my arrival the campground host came by & gave me maps of the park and adjacent Ozark Riverway & offered his assistance if needed.
At night a short walk on the road to the spring gave an extra special treat of multiple lightning bugs.
The individual shower/restroom was well maintained & easily walked to, with a flush toilet nearer the site. I stayed through a busy weekend but the noise level was reasonable.
The campground is conveniently in the middle of the Current River's upper section [before it's joined by the Jack's Fork) with close by Carr's Canoe Outfitters, which has an open WIFI 24 hrs/day useful even from their small parking area . Campground cell service is VERY limited. Carr's also has a VERY small shopping space for basic needs.
The biggest negative was the frequency of river rafting/kayaking school bus's from the local approved waterways' outfitter on the weekend, especially Saturday, driving by the site BUT the positive is you could make arrangements with them to pick you/family up at your site including all your river experience gear.
Oh, other negatives were inability to visit the cave due to the washed out bridge to its entry & unrepaired pavement approach road to the spring's parking area.

We had a great visit at Round Spring campground. We've been camping there for around 40 years. We are now on the third generation of campers and love sharing the experience. Our campsite was great and located relatively near the upper restrooms. The campground was quiet - even on Saturday evening when we first arrived. That's a bonus for us. The restrooms were very clean.

We love staying at Round Spring, especially the Ranger Talks on Friday and Saturday, which are always fun and informative.

Wonderful experience, we enjoyed an informative class about the areas geology put on by the national park staff at the amphitheater.
