Accessibility

This park offers great camping with access to the Meramec River.

Park Office

The park office, located in the second building up the designated road, provides park information, both inside and on the exterior information board. One accessible parking space is available.

Campground

  • The campground has one electric and one basic accessible site hidden among the trees, each providing an extended-end table, a fire ring, a pedestal grill and a lantern post.
  • The modern, accessible showerhouse is located at the end of the loop. Here, you’ll find accessible parking adjacent to a paved pathway leading to the entrance. Inside are lever-handled faucets, side-transfer toilets and hand dryers. Two of the four private shower rooms have been constructed to be accessible.
  • Fresh water is found at the lower end of the parking lot at a pump-handle type hydrant on a slight slope. Some users may need assistance.
  • A flush-toilet facility is located at the beginning of the campground, between the two accessible sites. Although parking is gravel, users may park next to the paved pathway. This facility offers side-transfer toilets and lever-handled faucets.
  • The woodlot is located across the road from the showerhouse and has not been modified for accessibility. Assistance is available by asking the campground host next to the showerhouse.
  • The dump station provides access to the drain and tower; however, fresh water in the form of a pump-handle hydrant is on gravel within a curb. At this time, those not able to access the fresh water here or at the showerhouse should seek help from the campground host or a park employee.
