Best Time to Camp at 2 Campground

Peak season hums with activity from March through October when anglers line the banks and families claim their favorite campsites for weekend getaways. Come fall, the valley ignites with color as maples and oaks shed their summer green for amber and scarlet, and cooler air makes every hike more pleasant. The off-season offers a different gift entirely: solitude. With the Nature Center shuttered and most visitors gone, winter and early spring belong to those who don't mind the quiet—just you, the open trails, steaming showers after a cold morning, and trout that feed year-round in water that never freezes.

Fall(Sep-Nov)

Spring(Mar-May)
4.0 / 5

Planning Tips
  • Operating Season: Roaring River's on-season begins Feb. 25. (Many parks' on-season is Apr. 1–Oct. 31 and off-season Nov. 1–Mar. 31; Roaring River is an exception with Feb. 25 on-season start.) Water and showers are usually available during on-season.

About 2 Campground

Deep in the Ozark hills, Roaring River State Park welcomes you to a world where spring-fed waters rush through limestone valleys and rainbow trout rise in crystal-clear pools. This storied destination pairs Depression-era charm with modern comforts, creating the perfect basecamp for anglers, hikers, and anyone seeking refuge in one of Missouri's most dramatic natural settings.
Campground sites are offered as basic, electric and sewer/electric/water site types. The official site does not explicitly list which specific site types (tent, RV, group or primitive) apply to Campground 2.
