Weston Bend State Park Campground - Weston, Missouri

PFR **
Campground ***


This park is ok for an overnight stop, but I wouldn't want to spend much more time here, and it is as expensive as a nice campground.  They have a 2 dog limit, so we had to just put 2 out at a time.  Since we were only one night, we just put out 2 pens and didn't bother with the step lattice.  We could have put out a few more pens, but the site is fairly small compared to most.

This park does not have water or sewer at the sites.  Electric only.  There is a water spigot right across from this site, and another one a little ways down the way before our site.

Wooded, but was able to get satellite with rooftop.

Site #32
Length of stay - one night
$32/night (Expensive for what it is)
OTA - 35 channels
Satellite - Got all 3 satellites with rooftop.

Escapees Turkey Creek RV Village - Hollister, Missouri

PFR *****
Campground ****

This is a great park.  Not quite as large as Sumter Oaks.  Some sites have shade, some don't.  But, they all seem to have good grass, and are nice sized.  We used 6 pens.  The roads and parking pads are gravel/dirt.  We did have to put blocks under the front tires.

This park is right on Turkey Creek, and close to Branson.

Site #H8
$120/week, and $20/night, plus $3/night for 50amp
Length of stay - 2 1/2 weeks
Satellite - Could not get signal on rooftop, and took several tries to get all 3 on portable.
OTA - Just a few
Water pressure - 40 lbs

Wildwood RV Park - Dexter, Missouri

PFR ***
Campground **

This RV park is a gravel parking lot with hook-ups.  It is behind a storage facility and some other businesses.  It has 22 sites, all pull-thrus.  There are quite a few sites with full-time residents in them.  But, it is clean and well maintained.  Not bad for an overnight stay, but wouldn't want to spend more than 1 night here.  We only put out 2 pens since we were here just one night, but could have put out a couple more.

The park office is inside the hearing aid business.

Site #13
$30/night
Length of stay - 1 night
Water pressure - 60 lbs
Satellite - All 3 satellites
OTA - 4 channels

7 Points Campground - COE - Hermitage, Tennessee (Nashville)

PFR *****
Campground ****+

This is a beautiful campground!  Our site was directly across from the boat ramp parking lot, which actually gave us a really great view out our front windshield.

The interior roads look to be newly blacktopped, but they are a tad narrow, which made getting in and out of our site a little tricky, but not bad.  The parking pad was level concrete, and there was a long driveway to park the car.  The patio area was raised about 6" from the parking pad, with a railroad tie.  The patio was really large, with a picnic table, BBQ grill, and fire pit.  We only put out 5 pens, but could have put out all 7, and had room for more.  There was also a lot of space between sites and behind ours.

There were too many trees to use the satellite, and didn't even try to set up the portable because we got 40 over the air channels.  We got all the local channels, and many of our preferred channels.

We were only at this park for 2 nights, but would love to come back for a longer stay!

Site #40
Length of stay - 2 nights
$11/night with senior card
Water pressure - 50 lbs
Satellite - Too many trees
OTA - 40 channels
