We stopped here for a night while driving across the country and it was one of our favorite sites! Right next to the river of a Dam and close to a nuclear power plant it was a cool site to see engineeeing marvels.
Pros:
- The site was level and the picnic table was clean and well taken care of.
- The water spout had some of the best water we had on our trip! At first the water came out brown and dirty but after rubbing it for a couple seconds it was clear and amazing.
- Site 25 has access to its own private beach which we could look at the dam during sunset and sunrise.
- We didn’t use the fire pit but it looked nice, plenty of kindling to collect as well!
Cons:
- The river didn’t seem clean enough for swimming as the nearby dam must move around the dirt form the bottom making it murky.
- Due to the light posts around the campground and the lights on the street over the Dam there was a bit too much light pollution to see all the stars we expected to, but there we’re still a lot!

Wow, I don't know if it was because it was early in the season or because it was Easter Sunday, but we had the entire campground to ourselves Sunday night. What a beautiful spot, right on the Neosho river. We saw pelicans diving for fish and found mussel shells near the water. I love that each campsite has a covered shelter area. Made it nice to get out of the sun (and the brief morning rain!). Pit toilets and shower house were clean and stocked (although you have to bring your own soap). A little bit of highway noise, but not too bad. Lots of animal sounds to make up for it! Would definitely camp there again, although since it's right on the river, I'll likely keep it to shoulder seasons of spring and fall to avoid ticks and mosquitos. Did find a couple of ticks crawling on us and a few attached to our dog, but overall, no worse than expected. I only wish check-in time was earlier in the day. 6pm is pretty late to get started, and we had to head back by noon the next day. I think a 2pm or 3pm check-in time would be much better, giving more time to set up and enjoy the evening rather than rush to set up before dark.

Site we reserved was an extreme slope and could not level the camper. Campground map also showed it on the other side of the road ( wanted to be next to river). Luckily we were able to switch to a neighboring site that was not occupied.

When we arrived there was a problem with the electric box, so I let Tyler know and he sent someone right out to fix it. Bathrooms were spotless as always.
