Some mention
"Visitors overwhelmingly praise Timbuktu as a very clean, modern and well‑designed campground with spacious, level concrete pads and excellent bathhouse facilities. Frequent complaints focus on limited shade (newer trees), busy/active campground atmosphere during peak season, and spotty/no cell service in the campground."

Best Time to Camp at Timbuktu Campground
Plan your creek-splashing and swimming adventures for late spring through summer when the water beckons and the weather's warm. As the air cools, fall transforms the surrounding hills into a tapestry of color, making it prime time for hiking the park's trails. The campground typically operates with full services from April 1st through October 31st, giving you plenty of opportunities to experience the Ozarks in their finest seasons.
Best season for creek-splashing and swimming; on-season includes summer months.
Fall foliage transforms surrounding hills; hiking and views remain strong.
Late spring is ideal for creek activities as water warms and trails reopen.
Campground is off-season Nov 1 - Mar 31; winter camping not part of operations.
Planning Tips
- Operating Season: On-season: Apr 1 - Oct 31. Off-season: Nov 1 - Mar 31. (Some parks have different on-season start dates; see park-specific rates and operations.)
