From Wardsville, take Route W south 1 mile. The access is located 20.40 river miles above the mouth of the Osage River.
If what you're looking for is primitive camping with a place to go to the bathroom and the boat ramp but no dock this is the perfect place. If you're looking for more amenities this is not it
Love it. 3 hiking trails 3, 4, 5 miles, beautiful creeks, cliffs, caves
Great place to lauch your boat on the Osage River. 2 nice boat ramps with bathrooms. Nice looking camping area but I've never stayed the night. Always meet nice folks.
Came threw on a bike touring trip and honestly probably one of my favorite areas I stopped at, didn't actually have much and yeah there's trash because they simply don't have a dumpster so people just leave the bags they accumulate (odd actually seeing it's right outside of a town so it would be easy to deal with a dumpster) however. Waking up walking out to the water was just a1 AND. THE FISH. OML. I have never seen people pull cats out that consistently of that size. Definitely going to be coming back here just to fish someday.
