We had fantastic weather. The camp was just about deserted. The spots with full hook up were all taken but many great spots were available with electric only. The sites are large and easy to back into. The washrooms gave plenty of hot and cold water. The cleaning of the facilities left a lot to be desired. The urinal was dirty with caked on lime scale. The handicap shower only gave very hot water that could not be turned down. The sinks would benefit from a good scrubbing with “Dutch cleanser” But for $10@ night who is to complain. I was told by the very welcoming gate attendant that it was end of season and the cleaning contractors had been terminated… It’s a perfect site to make side trips to Hannibal and the Mark Twain exhibit.

Park was generally quiet and sites are widely spaced. However the shower house was definitely dated and well used, but still functional. We frequently saw deer as we entered and exited the park.

For visitors planning a trip during a weekend, it is important to make your reservations well (up to 6 months) in advance. Weekend visitors will typically block the full hookup sites making it difficult to stay for more than a few days.
I long for the time when you could drive up, find an open site, and stay in that site for up to two weeks. That is impossible now.

Our camping trip at Indian Creek was so enjoyable. Our site was great. I think we were the only tent campers. Our neighbors were courteous. The restrooms were always clean. In fact we are going back before it gets too cold.
