14. Matt's Place at Meramec n Labarque

100%
(68)
45mi from Hermann · 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.

17. Wine Country Farm

19mi from Hermann · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Enjoy a stay at our 10 acre horse farm centrally located between 2 popular Missouri Wine Country regions and less than 15 minutes away from antique shops, restaurants, wineries and a conservation lake. The farm is home to our beloved Percheron draft horses, one quarter horse and a little mule that's been in the family for over 25 years. We also raise chickens and have a few barn cats that might show their faces once they're used to your company. (They're very tame, just bashful with strangers.) You're welcome to participate in daily farm activities such as feeding horses, gathering eggs and gardening. You may spread out in the large backyard and set up your games or hang your hammock in the trees and rest amid the relaxing sounds of nature. Speaking of relaxing, there might be times during the weekend when life here on the farm is bustling with activity. We might be getting ready for carriage rides in the morning and returning to the barn to unload horses late in the evening. We may occasionally operate the tractor, chainsaw or some other noisy equipment. In other words, it's not always quite, but it's all part of the farm-stay experience! Located just 2 miles from Highway 50, we're easy to find. And the driveway is suitable for most any size RV or travel trailer. WiFi may be accessible at different parts of the property.

Where to go

The Town of Hermann

Since it is such a popular traveling destination, Hermann abounds with lodging and camping options. Private RV parks offer a full slate of amenities, from full hookups to free wifi to swimming pools. Even the city park is set up for campers, with over 50 campsites providing hookups for tents and RVs. Public campgrounds operated by the Department of Natural Resources, the Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the Missouri Department of Conservation offer scenic options, primarily with primitive campsites.

Graham Cave State Park

When people talk about historic sites, they usually are talking about recent history, within the last few hundred years, but what if you want to explore what life was like 10,000 years ago? Graham Cave State Park provides this opportunity, thanks to a unique sandstone cave that has evidence of Native American occupancy for thousands of years. The park’s 400 acres offer hiking trails through the woodlands and fishing and paddling opportunities on the Loutre River. Campers will find basic and electric tent and RV sites.

St. Louis

Missouri’s second-largest town is less than an hour east of Hermann, meaning you can make it an easy day trip or camping base. The downtown area showcases the history of this grand city, which was founded in the 1760s. Get a bird’s eye view of the city at Gateway Arch National Park. Urban and suburban RV parks provide amenity-filled stays, while surprisingly scenic public campgrounds can be found at Babler State Park and Horseshoe Lake State Park.

When to go

October is a popular time to visit Hermann, due to the annual Oktoberfest, which stretches throughout the whole month—with festivities starting in September. The campgrounds may be more crowded, but the crisp weather and leaf peeping can’t be beat. Spring weather is also great for camping, though cooler temperatures may stretch late into the season. Summer is hot and humid, but camping can still be enjoyed. Winter is less than ideal, with freezing temperatures and precipitation.
