Meramec Campground

When you rent an RV in eastern Missouri, consider camping at Meramec Campground near Stanton. Meramec Campground is a part of the larger Meramec State Park; this family-friendly RV campground has restrooms with showers, laundry facilities, and a dump station, all nestled among the trees along with the campsites. There's a playground for younger kids, and the RV park is open year-round, although some amenities may only be available during the summer months. There's also a boat launch at your disposal and one area that's designated for tent camping (the campground is divided into several sections).

Once you've settled in, the rest of Meramec State Park is waiting to be explored. There are miles upon miles of trails for you to hike and mountain bike, and the Meramec River is only steps away. You can go swimming, rafting or boating, or fish in the river from the riverbank or a boat. The park has a visitor center where you can get information and ask questions about the park. One of the park's more interesting attractions is Fisher Cave, which has guided tours you can join. If you need gas for your RV rental, groceries, or other supplies, Stanton can fix you up, even if it's just a coffee and a quick bite you need.
