Road improvements in the MT were appreciated. The forestry team was busy keeping the MT forest healthy for the future.

Loggers Lake is a beautiful campground! Due to recent rains, the lake was a little muddy but perfect for kayaking. The camp host is super friendly and the sites are all beautiful!

This is my favorite campground. There is no phone signal and it is so peaceful. Even when full you don’t necessarily see your neighbors

I truly hesitate sharing this GEM of a campground, but feel obligated so not to be selfish. We (husband & wife) spent last weekend here for the first time. We have camped hundreds of times in MO over the last 30+ years from private campgrounds, to state parks, to gravel bars on overnight river canoe float trips. This place is truly a paradise of peace. 11 FIVE star ratings don't lie. Uncrowded/spacious campsites all with lake not just visible from the sites, but accessible from many just a few steps away. In just one day we kayaked the crystal clear water (you can see lake bed below in 20 feet of water), fished (caught two largemouth), hiked the 1.2 +/- mile trail around the lake, took "foam noodles" & cocktail and floated in the lake 30 feet off the shore (I'm normally not a fan of lake swimming - prefer clear flowing rivers - but with this lake being filled by spring fed creeks, it was not only crystal clear, but warm on the surface and refreshing cool down below), started the campfire & made dinner and watched a beautiful sunset over the tree line across the lake from our campsite and watched a gazillion stars pop out one by one. Well, until the near full moon began to rise, then we decided to take a moonlit kayak trip around the mirror calm lake. Lawns, grounds and vault restrooms are VERY well maintained. Community water spigots a short walk from our site. Yes it is a little off the beaten path, "primitive" sites with no electric or sewer, and NO cell/internet - but each site has fire ring, picnic table and lantern post - and how awesome it was to have a total break from "the grid" for a couple days allowing us to 100% dedicate ourselves to soaking in nature and spending time TRUE quality time together - camping like it "used to be". WE WILL RETURN to this paradise. OH - and the host was SUPER friendly and a true JOY to meet & talk with!!!!

My fiancé and I travel around the country pretty regularly and have been to 39 of the 50 states. Loggers lake ranks up there as one our favorite campgrounds we have visited across the country. Perfect place to go if you're looking for peace and quite. As others have pointed out in the reviews, it seems this is a hidden gem most do not know about. There was only one other camper there for the three days we stayed. Absolutely stunning views to go along with a serene atmosphere. Planning on stopping there again on our annual trip. In an added bonus, the grounds keeper (Jim Evans) was one the most genuine and nicest people we've ever met. He stopped by out site to see if all was well, and if we needed any assistance. Ended up chatting with him for a good 30 mins and learned of some more interesting sites to visit while we were visiting Mark Twain National Forest. Highly recommend this campground for families or couples.

One of the most beautiful campsites I have ever been to. It was the perfect getaway for my sons first camping trip.

We’ve visited twice now, both on holiday weekends to get away from the crowds. This spring fed lake deep in the ozark forests is so beautiful and peaceful! We bring our kayaks to paddle around the clear waters, and there are a few different swimming beaches to bob around in. I love how quiet it is, on a summer evening just you and the frogs. We love the view from the “walk in” sites under the pines, and plan to make this an annual trip!

This is one of the most relaxing places. Love the view, the swimming and no phone signal
