The campsites were great, the fishing was very good. But why were the fish cleaning stations closed? One camper near us dumped their fish cleaning remnants in the weeds near the campsite, resulting in a bad smell and attracting vultures to the area.

Campground in well maintained. Large sites.

They have recently demolished 2 bathroom and 1 shower facility in the East Campground. Only one shower house remains for the entire loop. Poor planning by someone and a major safety issue if bad weather would happen. Why not demo 1 at a time???????

Lovely, well kept campground. Very "off the beaten path". I made the reservation on line using the campground map. It indicated that there were shower house just a site or two away. Turns out that the shower houses are being completely rebuilt. The plan looks wonderful however not very useful for us. I would recommend this campground.

Always a great time at Indian Creek! Only down fall to the recent trip is that the fish cleaning stations were locked up. Oh and the ticks were horrible! Wish they would spray.

The camping was great as usual, the fish cleaning station was closed and no one was working on it. Construction could have been scheduled at a better time than peak fishing season. I know typical government.

We were in site 102 West gate. I had to drive up on pads to get level, other than that it was a good site.
We drove to downtown Hannibal and walked Main Street and the river front. Didn’t tour the lighthouse or go into Mark Twain cave maybe next time.

Have always loved this campground, but they tore out both shower houses on the loop we camp so very inconvenient.

A lot of fish carcasses in campsites and on road attracting vultures landing in sites. Need cleaning stations.
