We love Alley Spring Campground. The swimming hole is perfect for families. I recommend seeing the mill, Rocky Falls, and Round Spring

The Park Rangers a absolute bullies who appear to hate tourists. Through the week we saw several out of state vehicles stopped inside the campground. For the ones in our group it was no seat belts in the park or my kid riding on his mom's lap while driving to the water, 5 miles an hour in the camp ground. But a truck with Missouri plates with four kids in the back could drive right by them or a side by side loaded down with kids, no belts and it's fine. when they stop you you're guaranteed a sobriety test followed by a breathalyzer, whether you've been drinking or not, they will find a reason. There are too many parks where you can enjoy yourself without fear of crooked law enforcement. After two bad encounters with two different people in our group a friend complained to the camp host while visiting my site, within ten minutes the same three park rangers who had been causing trouble show up at my site because they had "a noise complaint" the night before. The problem with that is there was no one on my camp site the night before. We spent the evening at a friend's site and my son and I went to bed early, the camp site was dark and quiet. Even if we were there the night before, why wait nearly 24 hours before talking to me? They were just sending a message. As they left one of them looked at me and said "just keep it down". Me and the group I was with are peaceful quiet folks none of us made any noise on any of our sites. Their message was clear to me and my friends, "keep quiet", it was a warning. I will never camp in Alley Springs again or even any where in the Ozark or near Eminence, if you're smart, or an out of stater, you will stay away too.

I've been staying at Alley Spring for over ten years now. It's a very pleasant campground. Sites are reasonably big. If you are tent camping, take a close look at the photos on the website, as some sites are more tent-friendly (in terms of elevated, dry, grassy areas to pitch a tent) than others. It does seem to me that the reservable loops are more RV/trailer oriented than the non-reservable loops down by the river, which have larger grassy areas for tenting. The new (2017, I think) shower building is really nice. There is one loop with electric service, which has usually worked for us. It tends to book up well in advance, though. Cell service is effectively nonexistent. Eminence has a decent grocery store, a couple gas stations and a few restaurants and bars that tend to change from year to year.Paddling the Jacks Fork is a great experience, but word to the wise: a few times each summer you share the stretch below Eminence with (horse) trail rides... which cross the river... and horses do what horses do. So you may want to check the town website and schedule accordingly; i.e., the week before the trail ride rather than during or immediately after.

dogs should always be leashed and we noticed several not on leashes, its not the parks fault other campers can't follow the rules. Again some camper had a very bright light on their camper, no fault of the park but annoying none the less. We will come back and we really enjoy the rest of the campgrounds.

Love the campground however it would be great if there was another loop with water and electric as it’s hard to get a site unless you book 6 months exactly ahead.

Enjoyed the stay. My only negative is that someone before us had dumped grease in the high grass behind our spot. The smell was rancid and flies were horrible.
