80+ acres with over a mile of river frontage. Also a unique custom off road park on the property. Swimming, fishing, kayaking, and live music on weekends. Tent camping or RV/camper . Campers who need electric are allowed to bring a generator. We have limited electric as of now. We are located just 2-3 miles from 3 different gas stations but are also very secluded.Perfect Place to Get Away From It All! 👀👀 If you love the outdoors and river life come see us! We are completely different than your normal campgrounds! The price is $50 Per Night for up to 8 . All sites will hold 8 or more people. If you have a larger crowd let us know and we’ll set up an area to accommodate for an additional fee. Live music most weekends, but plenty of room to get away from it if that’s not what you’re into. Set up your tent in one of our designated camping areas or make your own new camping area along the river or in the forest. Or bring your RV or Camper with a generator and stay along the river or adjacent to the river. You can hike,swim, bike ride, search for arrowheads and artifacts, kayak, fish, bring your off road vehicle and play in our designated off road park,come see live music, or just come get away and bring your hammock and chill out and do nothing for as long as you choose. Also we are just 5 miles from Hughes Mountain Natural Area and not far from some other great areas like Elephant Rocks and Johnson Shut Ins. See you at the river✌️

River Weekend
We had such an amazing weekend here! Quick drive from STL. The rain made things a bit messy but the campsite was perfect, plenty of level areas to set up our tent and canopy. We quickly set up camp at a secluded site near the water when we arrived and weren’t bothered by anyone. The land is incredible and the river access is stunning! We will absolutely be back soon and have our eye on a couple other campsites that looked great!

On the water!!
Absolutely loved our stay here!!! We were super close to the river. Our dogs were able to run around. Other campers were close but we weren’t right on top of each other. Joshua came around periodically to check on us and see if there was anything we needed. We will definitely be back.

Camping with littles!
10/10 stay. This place is beautiful! If you are looking for a good family friendly place this is it. Joshua was super accommodating and helped us find the perfect spot. The campground is secluded and private. The nights were so calm and the star gazing was awesome! We camped right on the river and our kids had a blast all day playing while we relaxed in the water. We will be returning!!!

Awesome Experience
I had an awesome time at this Big River Outdoor Campgrounds. I had a great place to set up on a gravel beach next to the river. The site was clean, peaceful, and not overcrowded. I’ll absolutely be back to this campground!

We had an amazing time! Josh, the host, met us at the shop when we got there. He was very nice and showed us around and allowed us to pick our sight. The entire place was very clean, quiet, and peaceful. We loved hanging out on the river bank and kayaking around. It was slower weekend which was perfect for what we wanted, but we will definitely be back for a live music weekend. Can’t wait till next time!!
