Wrong because they had some serious rain before I came down and the spillway which never spilled in like 70 years spilled big time and took out the valley and everything was flooded with roads closed etc. the whole area all over every where we drove and I mean 25 miles had flooding everywhere. The usual clear water was dirty brown so I don't know you begin to catch fish. The grounds and ramps were under water so I don't know why you would want to launch a boat since you don't know what your motor will get snagged on. Overall this was a nice place so I'm adding them to Yelp so everyone can see how beautiful the place is and a web link to check out. This is a really nice place when it's not all messed up and would make a beautiful camp/Rv spot, my timing was just bad.

This is a family friendly campground. We love pretty much everything about it. The only reason it…read moredidn't earn a full five stars is that the sites are a touch close to each other and the bathrooms are not the best (but the showers are free, the water was hot and hey - having a bathroom in the woods when camping is pretty great). We tent camped at an electric site right on the river. It was beautiful, our neighbors were quiet and respectful and there were no loud parties or crazy music late at night. Having electricity in our tent was quite nice. The employees were super friendly and I saw a worker kindly ask a visitor to keep their speed down.

My husband and I have been camping at Circle B for a little under two decades -- long before our…read morekids were born. We've always chosen Circle B because it used to be the place to go in Eminence, MO. But after our most recent stay, it's clear this campground no longer values loyal customers or basic fairness. The biggest issue is the rock bar at Button Rock, where everyone congregates. It has become impossible to get a spot because people leave their unused, empty canopies sitting out all day to "reserve" their place -- even when they're not using them. Circle B allows this, and it ruins the experience for everyone else. After floating all day, my husband moved ONE unused canopy about six feet so we could unload our canoe, kayaks, cooler, and gear. Within minutes, a woman in a red Jeep was glaring at us like we'd done something outrageous. Then a man came barreling down in his Toyota, marched straight over, and spoke to my husband in a blunt, territorial, and confrontational way -- all over an empty canopy that wasn't even being used. It was completely unnecessary and made the whole situation uncomfortable. And if that wasn't ridiculous enough, the woman in the red Jeep actually went to the front office with our campsite number to file a complaint that we moved her unused canopy SIX FEET. And the office took the complaint. Instead of addressing the real issue -- people blocking the entire rock bar with empty canopies -- they treated us like we were in the wrong for simply trying to unload our gear. When my husband went to the office to ask why guests are allowed to leave unused canopies out all week, he was basically told that the retired campers who stay for weeks get first dibs, even during slow weekdays. In other words, our money wasn't good enough. Our long‑time loyalty didn't matter. We were brushed off like we were the riffraff. What makes this even more frustrating is that my husband never writes bad reviews. He doesn't complain, he doesn't cause problems, and we've never felt the need to speak out before. But this experience was so unfair, so poorly handled, and so disrespectful that we felt it was necessary to warn others about what's happening at Circle B. We paid over $270 for this stay and were treated like second‑class customers. Circle B has made it clear they only care about the people who stay for weeks at a time, not the families who have supported them for years. And let's be honest: * The bathrooms are disgusting outdated, dirty, covered in bugs, and clearly not maintained. * The campsites are crammed together with barely any breathing room. * The overall atmosphere has gone downhill. After nearly twenty years of camping here, we're done. Circle B has completely lost sight of what made it special, and they've lost our business for good.

My family came here every year when I was a kid, but I had only been back once since then because…read moremy own family does not include camp enthusiasts. I was impressed! For $5 a person parking/admittance, we joined some others at their campsite for the day. The sites were well-maintained, the rocky beach was clean, and it was a joy to spend the day on the cool river. We didn't need floats, but TRL had them available for rent, had we wanted them. Afterward, we visited the shower houses (which were pretty clean), cooked dinner on our grill, and watched the kids play on the playground. Before returning our day passes, we looked around the general store at the t-shirt, river toys, rafts, and more, followed by two scoops of hard ice cream in waffle cones. I would definitely come back, and I wouldn't recommend this campground to anyone looking to enjoy the river. Tech notes: I had Verizon 4G at the general store and at the campsite, but I was roaming at the river. There are two Pokestops near the general store.

We found Gasconade Hills Resort on the RVLife app. We pulled up at about 5:15 PM and called the phone listed. James showed up within a couple of minutes to check us in. We did not have prior reservations so we were able to drive around to pick a spot we preferred. We set up quickly and were able to enjoy the very clean, nice size pool. The bathrooms at the pool were also very clean. Afterwards, we decided to order pizza and although it was very close to closing time, James took our order and delivered to our camping site. WE LOVED IT HERE! Can't say enough good things about it. Wish we had time to do the river floats. We are already planning to come back and stay for a few days.

Bip was not allowed outside that morning. She was not put on the ground outside of our home until we arrived at cabin. She was in her purse at all times for the entire trip. Got to cabin36B at 1532 (3:32pm) Put up pin in gravel 1st thing. Left her there for 15-20 min as we unpacked the car and put away groceries. A hour later she started vomiting what looked like clear/ white spit. We thought it may be her flee meds given the day before or constipation due to the weird circles she was turning. Other ideas we were thinking were vestibular attack, elevation change, or possible bug spray/poisioning. Went to dollar general at 8ish and got Benadryl to see if it would help. Got back noticed it didn't have a syringe to administer meds. I went to my car to see if I had a saline flush, at this time the lady from came pulled up and ask if we were warm enough. I told her we were, and told her what I was looking for that my dog was sick and ask if she had a dropper or anything we could use. She ask could she come in and take a look at my dog. She stated she looked like she was "acting like the people "down town" on meth..last thought on my mind. Ended up calling the emergency vet hospital Veterinary Specialty Services 45 min away! After exam the vet said it looked like meth toxicity, and recommended a cystobladder needle aspiration to get urine to which she had to be sedated for. While waiting on the procedure, I finally ask them for something to calm her bc we have had to hear her cry at this point for almost 7 hours. It was devastating. They came got her immediately to go ahead and give her something to relax her. After she was examined it was determined she in fact had meth amphetamine toxicity. She was then admitted. We got back to cabin at 4am. On the way there we called the police to file a report to see what we could do. I ask them if they could come search the property or bring a dog or anything and they said there was nothing they could do and suggested I contact an attorney. The following morning I contacted Alitta the campground manager and let her know what was going on and what the the police said, I told her I didn't want to contact an attorney or take this further that it needed to go and we could handle this out of court, and she agreed. She offered to give me the refund for Sunday because she didn't need authorization to do that but she would have to wait on the owner or HR to refund Saturday night. She told me Sunday that the owner authorized the Saturday night stay as well and she would be reaching out to me. She was hospitalized in ICU until Monday morning at 4/23/26 Got refund Spoke with Alitta at 1650 She was not willing to give me names of the owners. Said for legal reasons. All she would tell me was Jennifer. She got very agitated when I ask. She would not give me a number to contact her boss or her bosses boss. She said she gave them my number and they would contact me. But they haven't yet. 04/24/26 1250: Finally spoke with Jennifer. Said there was an open investigation and she was not paying vet bills. And she had a lawyer but wouldn't give me a name. I called the Police Department back. Spoke with a Detective. He said there is no investigation on this subject. So this is the type of people you're dealing with. Be careful staying here! It could have been a child getting into the left over meth!!!
