The best beach camping near Doniphan

·

Doniphan puts you within reach of over 290 beach camping spots, each offering quick access to sand and water. Nightly rates average around $30, with some options dipping as low as $20. Campsites here don’t just give you a place to pitch your tent—they set you up for fishing, wildlife-watching, and horseback riding right out your door. You’ll find fire rings at most sites, plus toilets and showers if you like to keep things simple but not rough. Locals keep coming back to Four Creeks Campground (302 reviews) for its reliable river access and shaded spots. For something off the beaten path, Primitive camp (3 reviews) keeps it low-key, while 2 Broke Girls Glampground (2 reviews) offers a more styled-up basecamp. Doniphan’s beaches aren’t crowded, but they’re busy enough to feel lively during summer weekends. Pack light, bring your fishing rod, and expect to hear owls after sundown.
