The pretty bird singing was an amazing way to wake up each day!
We stayed at Site 11 which is a "primitive" tent camping spot, but with great wifi access included, I'm not sure how primitive it is, haha!
There is a shower house, more of a shed. It has one toilet and one shower.
It is clean and nice. I would recommend placing your used tissue/toilet paper in a trashbag and not the toilet because it is a country septic system.
The terrain is steep and rocky at times, just be careful to watch your footing and remember, you are on top of a Missouri "mountain". It's going to be hilly.
We saw deer, turkey, lizards, eagles, hawks, fish, turtles, dragonflies, butterflies, and hummingbirds. We are so so grateful to Steven because Riverbend is truly magical!!! We did endure the rain, but everything dried up pretty quickly.
There is a Dollar General not too far, but outside of that it will be about 30 minutes to town so get what you need beforehand.
At the tent site, there were shade trees (such big, beautiful trees), a picnic table (loved it!), and a fire ring (perfect to cook on, we brought grates).
There was some rocks under the tent, but nothing too bad at all, we laid a tarp under our tent and we were good to go.
Definitely recommend keeping yourself protected from bugs, you'll be in nature so we're technically in their home.
I'm so happy we found this nice, quiet gem of a place.
Thank you, Steven, we look forward to returning!
