Our small owner operated campground sits high above the Niangua River. Situated below Tunnel Dam and the locally famous Whistle, we have 250’ of Big Niangua River frontage. We offer several full hook-up RV spots and ultra secluded primitive spots and anything in between. We have a bathroom/shower house for campers’ convenience.

Tent site · Sleeps 8
Tent camping only. This is a primitive camp site, high above the Niangua River,. Your site will have a fire ring and a picnic table. With plenty on room, this very shaded site will make the perfect base camp for exploring the area. There is a bathhouse on the property - away from the campsite, offering a shower, toilet and sink. Just a quick hike down the hill to our access on the river, or a short drive down the county road to the ‘whistle’ for a great gravel area to play in the water! Close to, Ha Ha Tonka State Park, Tunnel Dam, Lead Mine Conservation Area, Mule Shoe Conservation Area, Ballparks National, and the famous Lake of the Ozarks.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Riverbend offers a mixed bag of experiences with its scenic beauty and proximity to the river being major attractions. Many campers appreciated the peaceful, secluded atmosphere and the convenience of nearby attractions like Ha Ha Tonka State Park. However, there are notable issues with maintenance and management, such as unkempt bathrooms, power supply complications, and noise disturbances. While some campers had a delightful stay, others were met with challenges, indicating room for improvement in facilities and communication.

    Recommends

    Riverbend is my new home away from home! I went out to celebrate the Birthday of my Brother who passed last September. Steven was very helpful and a wonderful host! We got to experience time with the welcoming locals and explore the river. We shared many adventures and made forever memories and friends. I highly recommend Riverbend!

    Camped in a 10 ft travel trailer at Site 8 - Riverbend Campground, Jul 2026.

    It was okay

    Bathroom isn't kept up on. Wasn't unusable by any means . More ventilation for summer time would help. Maybe even an outdoor shower would be neat. We know it's an "IN THE WORKS" place and hope to see

    • Thick humidity!

    Camped in a 25 ft class c at Site 6 - Riverbend Campground with pets, Jul 2026.

    Doesn't recommend

    We booked site 6, but there was a camper in that site when we arrived. Site 5 was empty, but the occupants in site 6 had electrical plugged into site 5. They did not offer to remove their electrical plug. There appeared to be mostly long term campers at this location. We were unable to reach Steven by phone to resolve the situation, so we decided to find another campground better suited to our needs. Steven was kind enough to refund our camping fees since the site we booked was occupied.
