Wanna get away from light pollution? See every star the way they were meant to be? There's no lack of stargazing here! Open skies, open fields. Hear the coyotes howl, and the crickets chirp.. (there's even some other unknown animal sounds.. ) lol.. Just off the gravel road, a perfect little spot to pitch a tent, and enjoy the sounds of nature!

Six level acres in western St. Charles County. Typical evening and night is very quiet. I have approximately 500’ of frontage on Indian Camp Creek with access to a private and secluded gravel bar. Kayaking activities are available without shuttle service. Indian Camp Creek County Park is less than 4 miles away offering mountain biking trails, hiking trails, equestrian trails, picnic pavilions, and Frisbee golf. Incline Village Golf Course is less than 1/2 mile away. Cedar Lake Winery is about a 15 minute drive. I keep a walking path mowed around the perimeter of my property so the weary traveler can stretch their legs after a long day of travel.

Perfect little country get away. Very secluded, quiet, and peaceful. The house had everything we needed. Our 2 dogs had a great time running around the land. We'll definitely come back!

Dennis was there to greet us and assist with backing in and plugging up. It was a great spot for a night or a few nights. We enjoyed the creek/brook right along the property. The wifi worked well. He cuts a path along the property that you can take a walk on and take your dogs. We would stay again when passing through.

We had a great time here! Lots of fish to catch, and great campsite. Hosts were friendly and accommodating. The sheep and goats were fun to watch and the 2 farm dogs loved spending time with us at the campsite. If you have dogs, I would make sure they are good around animals and other dogs before considering coming out. We didn’t bring our dogs and I’m glad. I don’t think they would have done well. There are canoe rentals, farm tours, fresh eggs and more. They also have special events at the farm that look like a blast!!

Dennis was awesome!! He met us outside, made sure we were comfortable, and helped us figure our parking for our (large) vehicles. He was very kind and accommodating, and the site was clean, quiet and perfect for us and our two dogs. Would recommend for sure!

Rich and Mary were very kind and enjoyable to talk to. They met us when we went to the wrong gate and showed us to our spot. We only stayed one night, but I would love to go back for a longer stay. The one thing to note was that there were a lot of bugs, but that was expected due to the location and lake. I definitely recommend this site!

50 amp service & city water is available no sewer but we just dumped for free at Loves on 370 on the way home. It was very quiet & peaceful. a wonderful relaxing space. Dennis the owner was polite cordial & a treat to BS with (& only lives there part time). our pad was 1' clean gravel & well maintained. the view was a large open field which was well cut and over to the left a hayfield all with a tall treeline in the distance. there's a creek 10' into the treeline which meant the ol' lady & kiddos got to play in the water with pool floats while I worked. the bank is steep so no flood worries (rained heavy 1st day there & 4 days prior). He's got wifi & it worked very well which is great because there's no cell service! a wonderful site that we'll use again because he's only 40 minutes west from our STL County residence (I-70 & exit 203 Highway T/W) & 10 minutes to the very popular Cedar Lakes Winery! 10 minutes from his quiet slice of heaven to the bustling Wentzville Crossing strip which has Target Walmart Lowes Home Depot Walgreens etc etc in anythingis needed. we loved the Mexican restaurant in Flint Hill MO. GREAT food at reasonable pricing wiyh a nice outdoor patio.

We had a great time camping at Explorer Valley. It was just for one night on a road trip from Colorado to Ohio, but it was the perfect spot to land. It was convenient to I-70, but was far away from all of the road noise. Dennis was there to meet us and help us park and get plugged in. We enjoyed walking around the mowed path in the evening and had a restful night there.

The best dog-friendly camping near Eureka guide
Where to go
Dr. Edmund A. Babler Memorial State Park
With facilities built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, Babler State Park prides itself for welcoming generations of visitors who have come to explore the woodlands and prairies or to gather with family. One of Missouri’s oldest parks, this is a good option for exploring Eureka or visiting St. Louis. The well-developed campground has spacious sites for tents and RVs, offering concrete pads and electric hookups.
St. Louis
While Eureka is a popular home base for exploring St. Louis, campers can also do the opposite, staying in parks, cabins, or glamping rentals closer to the city. A handful of urban RV parks provide easy access to St. Louis’s attractions, which include the sprawling Forest Park, numerous family attractions and museums, and a vibrant downtown, known as the home of the St. Louis Cardinals and the Gateway Arch National Park.
Meramec State Park
Another state park option close to Eureka is Meramec State Park, offering recreational opportunities along the Meramec River, which makes a slow sliver through the park’s woodlands and bluffs. Hop in or on the waters for boating, paddling, swimming, or fishing. An onsite cave offers fascinating tours. The park campground has sites suitable for tents and RVs, whether you want to dry camp or have electric or full hookups.
When to go
If Eureka’s nearby rivers and parks are calling to you, spring or fall are good times for embracing outdoor recreation, thanks to the pleasant temperatures. Summer is a popular time for any activities along the water, so expect more crowds, despite the hot, humid weather. Winter can be cold, with occasional freezing temperatures and rounds of snow and ice.
