Washington State Park

I went at the perfect time in Spring 2023! I was a littler nervous because I've never been here before. But as soon as I parked at my campsite, my face just lit up! I was so happy. The 2 nights/1 day I spent there was epically beautiful! The wind was cool, the sun warm, perfect balance of temperature! I also went exploring the campground and had a great time with my dogs!

Beautiful Fall camping on the basic site. A little rocky soil but that's common in MO state parks at the campgrounds. Nice views and trails and all the staff and fellow campers were friendly.

We rented a 2 bedroom cabin for 5 days. We were able to bring our dog. The cabin was very clean and surrounded by trees so you can't see cabins on the other side of you but you can see the ones across the street. There is minimal cookware in the kitchen (only one frying pan so you can't make bacon and eggs at the same time). There was no bedding in the cabin for the sofa bed the first night, unfortunately we realized that after the office was closed so my son had sleep on the couch covered in beach towels. Definitely check to make sure you have linens before the store closes. The park itself was nice. The girl in the store wasn't very knowledgeable when we asked her about fishing and stuff. There is a pool, the fee is $8 a person even if you won't be swimming and are there just to watch your kids. While the pool water was clear, the walls of the pool were covered in slimy green algae which was gross.

Wonderful state park with tons of amenities and accommodations on site. There is a lodge, a swimming pool, a playground, camping, three different hiking trails of varying difficulty, and a river with fishing and beach access. There are also Petroglyphs for you to view. Don't miss out on this wonderful gem of a State Park.

Great open park with cliffs and rolling hills. I went when it was December so no one was there. They have Petroglyphs to look at, trails, boat ramps, the Big River access, pool, RV and camp sites, cabins, little store. Very cool State Park to visit or stay the weekend.
