Crabtree Cove Park

Oh My Gosh Yes!!! Absolutely amazing experience for all 9 of us. 7 of us were rookie tent campers and they still loved the campground, facilities, and swimming cove. The basketball court was also a highlight for the boys because it was in good condition as well. There's 2 gas stations and a Family Dollar about 10 mins away that we found quite handy. We will be back several times before winter.

It was a great shady camping spot with a nice calm quiet cove to swim in on one side and fun big rocks on the other. The sites were large with lots of room. There were little trails to the water all around. They had a playground and basketball court my son wished he had brought his basketball. The cliffs that people like to jump off was right around the corner as well as the little island called chicken rock. The water was so clear. It was a beautiful weekend and I'm glad we booked an extra 2 days. The attendance were super nice and cleaned the bathrooms every morning bright and early. There wasn't water hook ups but there was water to fill and a dump station. Also shower houses for tent campers. We will be going back again soon!

March 3 b4 the electricity is on at the campsites. 78 degrees today and we are only ones at this campground!! Beautiful views of the lake. Nice and clean. Dry camping.but who cares! Free and private!!

My FAVORITE park from Nashville to Denver. It’s quiet on the tenting side. It’s the best camping you can get. Just wish people stop dumping their cigarettes and trash. The rangers are hard working. They get on it. Great job Missouri on this gem. I’ll be back.

Crabtree Cove is an excellent option for camping on Stockton lake. Please be aware that on the A-loop, the campsites along the cliff are prone to Timber rattlesnakes. I have camped this campground for 25+ years. I learned my lesson <not> to go out on those rocks along the bluff (up by A31). The rattlesnakes are as big as your arm, hiding under those rocks in the shade. They rush out mad when you play around them.
