The campground was very clean and well maintained. The camp hosts and staff were all very helpful and friendly. They spent a considerable amount of time getting me set up on Recreation.com and making my reservation. It was a very pleasant and relaxing stay. Bathrooms/showers were clean, hot water and warm inside. The campground was quiet, although most of the sites were occupied.

The campground looked clean and neat. All services worked properly (water, electric, etc.). Volunteers were very friendly and helpful -- very positive camping experience.
I don't like the rumor I'm hearing about more and more camping slots becoming non-available or campgrounds opening later and later this spring. It is quite difficult at times to get reservations for a slot for more than three or four days. With less slots available, it will be even worse!

The site has a slant to it, so the back of your RV will be higher than the front. This worked for me because I like to have my head elevated when slanting anyway. There is quite a bit of noise from the Missouri T traffic at this site.
