Was absolutely beautiful. We’re only a few people because of the time we were there. Biggest disappointment was that all of the restrooms were locked when we got there. We picked a spot close to the restrooms because we were traveling with a small child and according to the website the restrooms are supposed to be open year round.

One of my favorite campgrounds. It’s so easy to navigate, facilities are great, and there’s a path that will take you up the hill to a walkable bridge that will take you right to Allley Springs. Not to mention how picturesque it is right there by the jacks Forks river. And there is also plenty of space to walk my dog without interrupting the other campers. I will be back over and over again.

It was very relaxing. We were the only tent campers, the rest were campers and rvs. It has changed since our trips in previous years. You have to reserve online, and cell service is spotty, thus resulting having to go a mile or so towards Eminence to reserve and pay. Other than that so very relaxing and enjoyable.

We were fortunate to be at Alley Springs mill and campground in mid-April. There was only one other camper in the entire campground and only a handful of people around the mill. The trails were dry and easily hikeble with many wildflowers blooming. The water was flowing and the entire scene was of spring emerging from winter. The only thing we missed was seeing inside the mill. It wasn’t open yet. Still, it was a delightful experience and a great way to begin our exploration of waterfalls in SE Missouri. The others we saw, in order, were Falling Spring Mill and Falls, Rocky Falls, Mina Sauk Falls, Johnson Shut-ins Falls and Hickory Canyon Falls. Each different and all well worth it, especially after recent rains.
