We thoroughly enjoyed Greenville Recreation Area! We were attending a 4 day event and had the best time. Our camping neighbors were so nice and the campground was very well maintained. It's a very beautiful place, lots of shaded sites. Full hookups and sewer on site. Our Site was #18 and it was HUGE!. Several sites had lots of space between. The campground has lots of places for walking and riding bikes, playground and open entertainment area. I believe there is a local swimming area.

Greenville Recreation Area is our camp group of family & friends top camping destination for the large, well kept sites & many activities available. Our most recent trip was interrupted by severe weather, but we had adequate warning from the camp host as well as suggested shelter. That gave us some semblance of safety. Luckily we did not alter our reservations due to the weather forecast because there was a lot more beautiful weather than expected. The mosquitos were pretty savage this trip, but that’s part of being outdoors. Just like with the weather, plan accordingly.

It’s always a good place to camp. Level sites makes for an easy setup. The only problem was with the mosquitoes. Tried a fire,spray,candles nothing seemed to work. Had to stay in the camper most of the time.

We love spending time in Greenville, MO at the Old Greenville Campgrounds. We have a boat on Clearwater Lake, and it's only a twenty minute drive from the campground. The campgrounds are very clean, quiet, and all the campers are very friendly. The phone service is excellent. There are places to walk and ride bikes for both adults and kids. We usually camp there at least once a month starting in the spring.

Beautiful, clean park, level for those who have trouble walking in the park’s loops or to bath house. Camp host was very organized, made a change for us, and keeps the place tip top! Rarely do we camp in the same spot for more than 1-2 nights, but truly could have stayed here a week.
