Graham Cave Campground

When you book an RV in Montgomery County, the nearest city with attractions is the college town of Columbia – nicknamed the Athens of Missouri. Home to the University of Missouri (Mizzou), along with a few small private colleges, the city has a decidedly progressive vibe compared to the rest of the state. The annual True/False documentary film festival in March is one of the more exciting events in Columbia, with organizers attempting to remake the town into something of a utopian society with artist-led parades, busking events throughout the city, and DIY projects. The festival has earned praise for building an arts community in central Missouri. If you’re looking for a great museum to check out when renting an RV near Graham Cave Campground, head to the Museum of Art and Archaeology at the University of Missouri. It’s one of the most fascinating museums in the Midwest with all sorts of antiquities from Greek and Roman society, along with an amazing collection of more contemporary artwork. Sports fans will have plenty of options when they camp in an RV near Columbia, with Mizzou fielding exciting football, basketball, and baseball teams. Check out the university’s schedule to see what’s happening during your time in Columbia. For a little retail therapy, there’s the Columbia Mall, Rock Bridge Shopping Center, and the Broadway Shops. Unique independent stores can be found by browsing through the neighborhood just north of the university. However, for a big shopping trip, it’s better to take the time to go to St. Louis.
