"Visitors praise Cuivre River for its rugged, scenic, Ozark‑like terrain close to St. Louis, extensive trails and the lake; many describe the campground as well maintained with friendly staff. Common on-the-ground notes include wooded/shaded sites, a pleasant swim beach and a mix of basic and full‑hookup campsites."

Best Time to Camp at Campground (Sites 69-100)

The campground welcomes visitors from April through October, with spring and fall stealing the show for pure scenic beauty. Spring transforms the forest floor into a wildflower wonderland punctuated by delicate dogwood blooms, while autumn sets the hardwood canopy ablaze with reds, oranges, and golds. Summer brings warmth, humidity, and active wildlife (pack bug spray!), creating that quintessential Missouri camping experience. Winter camping is technically possible for the truly adventurous, though you'll want to prepare for muddy trails and potentially icy conditions.

About Campground (Sites 69-100)

Tucked into one of Missouri's largest and wildest state parks, sites 69-100 offer a forested escape that feels more Ozarks than northern Missouri. These family-friendly campsites put you within easy reach of Lake Lincoln's shimmering waters while surrounding you with the kind of rugged, wooded terrain that makes you forget how close civilization really is.
The park offers both primitive and modern campsites; the family campground includes tent sites and modern RV sites (some with full hookups). A separate equestrian campground is available and organized/group camping is listed among park offerings.
