Park Visitor Online Reviews
October 3 Nice park but.... by Name
The park has nice looking camping spots and great trails, however the staff in the campground are less than desirable. If you're looking for a fun place to camp, go to one of the other parks nearby.
July 3 Close to St. Louis by CPS
Nice & clean. AC in cabins. Kids love the pool area and river for fishing. Close enough to St. Louis for a day trip.
