Meramec Campground

Nice level site. Host was friendly & helpful. We just spent one night. We have stayed here before while traveling. Would recommend. Only downside is the company that books the site on-line charges you almost $7 extra just to book it. You’d be better off calling the campground to book vs booking on-line.

Campground has good amenities (pool, deluxe & standard cabins, multi-purpose building, etc…). Our family is a mix of campers and cabin rentals and it works out nicely here. Something we love is that you’re not bogged down by a bunch of rules. The deluxe cabins cost more, but it is definitely glamping! Your own kitchen and full bathroom in the cabin. It’s wonderful. Amanda was great! She made sure we had everything we needed and that we were having fun! This campground isn’t good for fishing and doesn’t have walking trails. Also, roads are gravel so bike riding isn’t great.

My kids and I will no longer camp at Meramec cave campground again. Our experience was not a good one at all. The bathrooms were absolutely horrible…they stunk, the floors in the men’s shower room was disgusting as well as the showers. Both nights we had issues with people around us being loud and disorderly after the 10 pm quiet time. Our second night the cops were called by someone on those individuals. It was just an all around bad experience and we will either go back to mark twain cave campground in Hannibal Missouri or find another location.

So close to all of the areas attractions, full hookups, has great spots for my buddies that are in to tent camping. On site staff, this lady was amazing! Helped us from start to finish! Didn’t get firewood before the store closed so she drove around the campground and got us some downfall! Talk about customer service man! Like a best kept secret, all the other campgrounds this close don’t have sewer, these guys do. Easy to get into. My friend who lives near this location recommended we stay here, dude was right. Definitely coming back!

We stayed for this Labor Day weekend. All I can say is that the camp manager Amanda is absolutely fantastic! She had such a positive attitude and she worked so hard! Great experience
