Blue Springs Ranch spans 150 acres along the Meramec River near Bourbon, Missouri, just off the old Route 66 corridor in the heart of the Ozarks. The ranch combines more than 100 full-hookup RV sites with cabins and tent sites, giving Ozark visitors a wide range of ways to camp on the same stretch of river.

Water-based recreation is the main draw, with float trips on the Meramec River ranging from a relaxing lazy float to a more ambitious 10-mile run, plus on-site fishing, paddle boating, and boat rentals. Beyond the water, the ranch offers horseback riding, a general store, an outdoor pool, a zip line, and a barn and pavilion that double as a wedding venue — enough variety that families with different interests rarely run out of things to do.

Spring through fall keeps the Meramec running at its most float-friendly, while the ranch's varied indoor and outdoor activities make it a workable destination in cooler months too.

The Route 66 history of the area adds an easy day-trip option: Meramec Caverns, one of Missouri's most-visited cave systems and a longtime Route 66 icon, sits near Stanton with cavern tours, a Meramec River canoe outfitter, a zipline, and the Jesse James Wax Museum on site. A short drive further leads to Onondaga Cave State Park in Leasburg, where Onondaga Cave's underground river and boat tours have earned it recognition as one of the most beautiful caves in the country.

Whether the plan is a float down the Meramec, a ride on horseback, or a side trip to explore Missouri's cave country, Blue Springs Ranch makes a solid basecamp for the Ozark region. Book a site and spend the days alternating between the river and the road.

RV Rental + Campsite Package

Deer Creek Campground sits on the spring-fed Black River in Lesterville, Missouri—a Reynolds County Ozark community about two hours southwest of St. Louis where the Black River's cold, clear current, high quality of water, and accessible float corridor have made it one of the premier river recreation destinations in the Missouri Ozarks. The campground's combination of RV sites, cabins, and tent camping with an in-house float trip outfitting operation makes it a genuine Ozark river camp where the water is not merely adjacent to the camping but central to the entire experience.

RV sites with hookup options, cabins of various sizes, and tent sites accommodate the full range of camping preferences, with outdoor pool, playground, a large pirate ship play structure for children, volleyball court, fire rings, picnic tables, and a covered pavilion available for rental providing the on-property recreational infrastructure. A camp store handles supply needs. The campground's Black River position means that creek access is immediate—the spring-fed water characteristic of the Ozark streams maintains temperatures in the mid-60s through summer, providing the cold, refreshing float and swimming experience that distinguishes Ozark river recreation from the warmer lake swimming that characterizes most Midwest summer camping.

Deer Creek is also a river outfitter, offering four- to ten-person rafts, party islands, canoes, kayaks, and tubes for a seven-mile guided floating trip on the Black River—a self-guided float through the Ozark woodland where the river's spring-fed clarity, boulder-lined pools, and gravel-bar swimming holes define a distinctly Missouri outdoor experience. The float trip returns guests to the campground via shuttle, and multiple daily launches accommodate camping guests who want to spend more of their day on the water than a single float covers. The combination of the campground's location on the float corridor and its outfitting operation makes it one of the more self-contained river camping operations in the Missouri Ozarks.

The Reynolds County Ozarks are anchored by a series of Missouri state parks that collectively make the area one of the most park-dense recreational landscapes in the state: Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park, where the Black River flows through volcanic rhyolite formations creating natural rock water slides and swimming pools unique in Missouri, is the most famous. Elephant Rocks State Park, a field of billion-year-old granite boulders among the oldest exposed rock in Missouri, provides geological wonder accessible to visitors of all mobility levels on its paved trail. Sam A. Baker State Park, one of Missouri's most beloved parks, provides additional Black River access with hiking and camping in the St. François Mountains terrain.

Deer Creek Campground operates through the Missouri Ozarks river season, with peak float trip demand from Memorial Day through Labor Day when the Black River's consistent spring-fed flow and moderate gradient make it accessible to all experience levels. Fall brings cooler temperatures, reduced crowds, and the hardwood foliage of the Ozark plateau in its full color display from early to mid-October, when the river's accessibility continues but the social intensity of peak summer diminishes. The campground's proximity to Johnson's Shut-Ins and the geological wonder of the Reynolds County state park cluster makes it a natural combination of river camping and state park exploration in a stretch of the Ozarks that rewards a multi-day stay.

Broken Arrow Campground sits in the heart of Missouri's Ozark National Scenic Riverway in Eminence — one of the most naturally spectacular regions in the American Midwest, where crystalline spring-fed rivers wind through limestone bluffs and hardwood forest in a landscape that has changed little in the last century. With the Jacks Fork River running along the property's edge and some of the Ozarks' most remarkable natural features within easy reach, Broken Arrow is the kind of campground that people plan trips around.

Accommodations range from tipis with cozy beds and kitchenettes to log cabins with full kitchens and smart TVs, alongside pull-through RV sites and tent sites for every style of camper. A large private beach fronts the Jacks Fork River, providing direct access to swimming holes, fishing spots, and put-in points for the canoe and kayak floats that define Ozark recreation. Pets are welcome throughout the campground, and the riverside setting means the sounds of moving water are a constant, soothing presence from every site.

The Ozark National Scenic Riverway surrounding Eminence contains some of the most remarkable spring systems in the world. Big Spring, just a few miles away, is one of the largest single-outlet springs on Earth, releasing millions of gallons of crystal-clear water daily. Alley Spring features one of Missouri's most photographed historic grist mills beside a brilliant blue spring pool, while Rocky Falls tumbles through sculpted red rhyolite rock in a waterfall setting unlike anything else in the region.

The area is laced with cave systems — over 300 documented caves within driving range — making it a destination for spelunkers and casual cave visitors alike. The Current and Jacks Fork Rivers offer gentle, meandering floats through the national scenic riverway, with multiple outfitters in Eminence renting canoes, kayaks, and tubes for everything from a two-hour float to a multi-day river trip. Blue Spring and Welch Spring are two more crystalline natural highlights reachable by water or trail.

Broken Arrow Campground is most popular from late spring through early fall, when the Jacks Fork runs at its most enjoyable for swimming and floating. Summer weekends fill quickly, as Eminence is a destination unto itself for Missourians and river enthusiasts from across the Midwest. Reserve early for Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day weekends, and consider a mid-week stay in June or September for the quietest and most atmospheric version of an already unforgettable Missouri Ozarks experience.

Perryville RV Resort by RJourney brings the quality of a modern, full-featured campground to one of the most historically layered corridors in Missouri — the Mississippi River bluffs region of the southeast corner of the state. Tucked into the quiet community of Perryville just off I-55, this Perryville campground is equally appealing as a destination in its own right and as a well-appointed overnight stop for travelers moving between St. Louis and Memphis.

Sites at Perryville RV Resort include both standard and pull-through configurations with full hookups and 30/50-amp service, and the resort offers a selection of pet-friendly cabins for guests who prefer solid walls to canvas and screens. A swimming pool, WiFi, and a full on-site amenity lineup make this Perryville RV Resort stand out from typical highway-corridor campgrounds in the region. Level gravel pads accommodate larger motorhomes with ease, and the staff is known for going beyond the basics to ensure a comfortable stay.

Perry County's rolling farm country and the Mississippi River floodplain define the surrounding terrain, and the proximity to the river's dramatic bluffs gives the region a scenic texture that surprises travelers who only know southeast Missouri from the interstate.

Trail of Tears State Park, about thirty minutes north near Jackson, offers hiking, bluff-top views over the Mississippi River, and a sobering look at the Cherokee removal history that defines this stretch of the state. Ste. Genevieve — just twenty-five minutes away — is Missouri's oldest permanent settlement, with French colonial architecture, artisan wine shops, and a National Historical Park making it one of the most rewarding half-day excursions in the region. St. Louis is eighty miles north, putting the Gateway Arch, Forest Park, and Busch Stadium within comfortable day-trip range.

Perryville RV Resort stays open throughout the year, with the I-55 corridor keeping it accessible even during shoulder seasons when other campgrounds in the region reduce operations. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable touring weather for exploring Ste. Genevieve and Trail of Tears State Park. Book ahead for holiday weekends, and keep this Perryville campground in mind as a reliable stopover anytime your travels take you through southeast Missouri — it consistently delivers a quality stay in a region where good options are limited.
