Matt's Place at Meramec n Labarque

41mi from Alton · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Located at the confluence of the Meramec River and Labarque Creek, my place (Matt's Place) is a ridge above a bottomland bowl of sorts. The old iron truss bridge here is likely built in 1910 and it has a survey marker from 1932. The creek has a nice little swimming hole, and a beach that is sometimes sand, sometimes, gravel, and sometimes a mix of both with some silt or even mud after a storm. It's peaceful down there to explore in the creek, wade while looking outward to an opening into the Meramec River. It's also fun to stand just at the mouth of the creek in the Meramec River. It's an awesome view upstream or downstream of tree lined banks, rock bluffs, and every now and then, passing boats, canoes, paddle boards, or kayaks. The old iron truss bridge hovers above the meeting of two waters. The water is cool and clean. Some fifty species of fish have been recorded in this creek, the most in all of Jefferson County and St Louis County. The bottomland has two levels, the lower bottoms down by the creek and the upper bottoms about a hundred feet from the creek. The upper bottoms has a clearing like a meadow with mowed grass. My favorite things to do here include gazing up at a cottonwood tree that must be sixty feet tall. It's leaves in a breeze are like a thousand hands waving hello. The bottomland meadow offers just enough sky to see bats dance in the dusk air between the trees, then fireflies as it gets darker yet. Up top is where I live. Just five miles off HWY 44 and HWY 109, at Eureka, MO, (30 minutes west of downtown St Louis, 18 minutes from Six Flags) this place sits on a ridge with great views above the Meramec River.

Triangle H Farm, LLC

7.5mi from Alton · 8 sites · Tents, RVs

Once a large cattle operation, Triangle H Farm has evolved through being a corn, soybean and horseradish farm before its present use as a horse boarding, training, and lesson facility.

Come see our 100 acres of camping possibilities and enjoy nature at its finest!

About 1.25 mile down the trail from the main barn is a walnut grove with a picnic table. The same stream runs past the walnut grove. There is a spot for a fire too.

RJM One RV

46mi from Alton · 5 sites · RVs

Fully rocked lots, five secluded and private sites, pond, community fire pit, picnic table, 30- and 50- amp electric hook-up, water hook-ups, security cameras. (We do not have a dump station) RJM One RV is designed to provide comfort and security for RVers that are looking for a safe place to rest for a couple nights. Overnight parking is what we had in mind, but the peace of mind and small number of total guests (5 total parking spots) could be the quick getaway that weekend, escapists crave. We understand that traveling safely extends beyond the road. Drivers need to be alert, RVs need water and electricity, and stopping to rest should bring comfort rather than anxiety. We also understand that rest-spots are a chance to stretch and enjoy new scenery. This is why we pulled all the stops to provide our guests with a fire-pit and outdoor, waterside, lounge! We wanted to create a safe, fun, flexible, and (most importantly) affordable campsite to recharge and regroup at.
