From Missouri I-44 traveling east (from Joplin), look for Buckhorn Exit 153 (as you exit, you'll see us on the right). Turn right at the stop sign and travel south about 1/3 of a mile. The entrance to the park is on your right (Spanky Lane); From Missouri I-44 traveling west, (from St. Louis) take Buckhorn Exit 153 and turn left at the stop sign (over the interstate).

Anyplace for travelers that is pet friendly gets five stars from us. Most RV spots have no shade and a handful there are long stays they were all considerate and seemed happy. We had a canopy so it wasn’t a problem. The sound of the freeway can be heard at times, as you can see the park as you drive by on the freeway. There is a nice shaded park with a playground on the property that has a picnic table and grill. Walking dogs or in our case, a Ragdoll cat, was a pleasant experience. Most spaces have a picnic table and some with fire ring. There is a small laundry room in the back buildings but the restroom has a sign “closed for season”. It would be fantastic if there was a back up bathroom and shower area. When dumping your sewage you have no bathroom and it’s helpful to have that back up. There is wifi and owner offered movies for DVD. We typically stream movies. internet was slow on and off - we were able to stream one movie but spotty. Found internet in the this area off and on in general for Verizon, using the wifi made it worse so we hardly used wifi. This place is family owned and operated by a fantastic couple and we support this! They are also cat people and they are so cool 2 strays are around the property but bother no one. We would return here in the future and recommend if you are looking for just a nice spot to stay and you don’t need or want trees at your space (and if you have pets).
Really appreciated the owners—they were kind and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and appreciated. The parking spot was easy to get to, level, and had full hookups. I’m so thankful we ended up staying here!
Do not believe the pictures or info on the website. The owners are SUPER nice, however, the park is old, not well maintained and the the bathrooms and showers are Closed. This park looks like it hasn't been touched since 1980! Numerous older rv's that are obviously long term. Convenient to St. Robert but SUPER sketchy location near a truckstop. Owners were honest enough to refund my booking and the Camp host was extremely nice x-military.
Beautiful, clean, small campground just off I-44. Lots are perfectly level.. amazing. John was so nice and accommodating. We were waiting for our truck to be repaired and he was very flexible with our check out time. Great little campground very reasonably priced. Highly recommend.
I spent 6 months at this RV park and the stay was perfect. When I moved in I didn't know what I was doing with my camper (I just bought it) and the owners helped me with great advice. The park overall is quiet at night so it's perfect for you early birds. I will be back when the Army sends me!
Thanks Again!
