We stayed here for a BRD rally. Streets and long pull-thru parking pads were blacktop, with large gravel in the "yard" area. The dogs did not like walking on the large gravel, and it was really difficult to scoop the poop. Sites are pretty close together, so we only put out a few xpens. We did have a beautiful view of the Gateway Arch.

This is a fine rv park for a short stay. We stayed here for 2 nights with BRD members on our way to St Louis. Our site was level, with nice grass between, and adequate space between sites. We used 4 pens, but could have used more.
The row of pull-thru sites they gave us were all "buddy" sites, and were very close to the noisy highway.

This is a fine rv park, for short stays. The site was level and plenty long enough so we did not have to unhook the car (pull-thru). There was adequate distance between sites, with good grass. The day we were there, and throughout the night, it was WINDY!!!
We used just 3 xpens since we were just there overnight, but could have used more.
They would not let the pizza delivery person into the park. I had to stand up at the office and wait for them. It was after office hours, so it was closed. But, a guy on a golf cart saw me standing there and did not even ask me if I needed help, and did not ask if I wanted a ride to our site after the pizza came.
We stopped here with other BRD members on our way to the St Louis rally.

Campground **+
This campground has nice, spacious sites, with asphalt parking pads and crushed rock yard surface. We used all 7 of our xpens. Our site was very level.
The scenery surrounding this campground is really beautiful! We also enjoyed watching the many chipmunks that live all around our site.
There are several negatives to this campground. It is at high elevation, just over 9,000', so the air is really thin. Just going up and down the steps to get the dogs out made us feel out of breath. Even though it was early Sept, it was really cold here a lot of the time we were here. Highs in the mid to high 60's and lows in the 40's. The sites in this loop are electric and water only. No sewer at the site, and no dump station in the campground at all! The closest dump station is 5 miles away! There are also bears in the area, so we had to be very careful about checking the area before we took the dogs out. There are no bath houses inside the campground. The only facilities are vault toilets.

This is a nice city run park, with beautiful views and large level sites. The yard and parking pads are dirt with some small gravel. The dirt was loose and if the dogs had not already been dirty from our site at Boyd Lake, they would have gotten dirty here. But, the main reason I am giving 2 stars, is that they have a 2 dog limit.
There were a LOT of tent campers at this campground.
One thing that was good about this place was that they have recycling bins for glass, plastic, aluminum, cardboard, and paper.

This is a VERY small privately owned campground, just off I-80, but in a very rural area. It has 4 long pull-thru sites that look like they are used fairly frequently. The sites are all grass, so the "parking pad" is where the grass is worn down. There are also 5 shorter pull-thru sites that don't look like they have been used at all. Our site was very level. The ground is covered with a mixture of grass and weeds, but not thickly covered.
The base rate for the FHU site is $35. But, they add $3 for Class A motorhomes, $2 for 50amp, $2 if you want to use their bathroom or shower, and $2 early check-in fee. So, with tax, it would have been over $43. Definitely would not have been worth the price. But, they accept Passport America, so the total was $24.50 before tax.
There are some small trees, but none that provide shade, or interfere with satellite reception.

The campground is nice, has level sites, and has no pet limit, but the sites are VERY close together! The gravel parking pad is not much wider than the RV, and the strip of grass between sites is only about 4' wide. So, not much room for x-pens.
New neighbors came in on both sides, 5th wheels with slides. Our pedestal was so close to the parking pad of the site next to us that they were not able to open their slide all the way. They stopped it about 3" from it. The neighbor on our passenger side was actually a KOA rig, covered with KOA advertising.
