Canvas Tent in Private Woodland

1 site · Lodging5 acres · Willard, MO
Camp Fernweh feels like your own personal Scout Camp, perched uphill amidst a mix of hardwoods and junipers! In the spirit of Swedish "Lagom" we have created the "just right balance" for a camping adventure that has ease without taking away the adventure. 
If the season’s right, you'll find pockets of wild black raspberries and gooseberries waiting to be discovered. Take to winding trails that span our 5 acres, inviting leisurely exploration or spirited adventures. We currently have one 13' canvas tent. 
Despite being conveniently close to your car, our campsites exude a sense of privacy and seclusion. Our property is 5 acres so your walk won't be too far to your camp, but you may want to consider the uphill and rocky trails to your campsite when packing. 

Being good to Mother Earth is at the heart of what we do. We prioritize sustainability with a newly constructed outhouse featuring a composting toilet, ensuring your comfort while respecting the environment.
 This Autumn you'll find that we are working on glade restoration throughout our property by thinning out eastern red cedar and native plantings! Our inspiration for Camp Fernweh is the "sleep-away scout camps" we never got to attend. Workshops, campfire book chats and simple camping are what we do best! Check out our website to see if we have an event going on during your stay. Camp Fernweh, just 15 minutes north of Springfield off Hwy 13, offers easy access to outdoor adventures! Within 5-10 minutes, you'll find Ozark Greenways for cycling and walking, Dirt 66 mountain biking, Sac River mountain biking, and hiking spots in conservation areas. Don't miss the nearby Frisco Highline Trail in Willard, MO, along with convenient grocers. Plus, Fantastic Caverns and Crystal Cave are just minutes away for added exploration!

The best camping near Pomme de Terre State Park guide

Overview

About

If you’re seeking a serene lake experience instead of a bustling one, Pomme de Terre is the place for you. Notable for its clean waters, this lake is a gem for boating, swimming, fishing, and paddling. The onsite marina and camp stores offer everything you need to hit the waters. While on shore, hike through woodlands and glades and watch for lake views from atop the towering bluffs. This sprawling state park offers 240 campsites spread across two large camping areas, each offering a unique experience. Cabin, glamping yurt, lakehouse rentals are also available. 

Notable campgrounds

  • Best for big rigs: The Hermitage Campground is open, flat, and more manicured. 
  • Best for a rustic camping experience: The Pittsburg Campground has large trees, with hilly, curvy roads.
  • Best for water views: Check the campground maps to see which sites are close to the waters—around half of the sites directly overlook the lake.
  • Best for boaters: The Pittsburg Campground is closer to the park’s marina.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. Decide whether you want to stay at the Hermitage or Pittsburg Campground. The parks offer different experiences and are several miles apart. 
  2. Reservations are available at both campgrounds April 1 through October 31. Reservations may be made up to 12 months in advance via the Missouri State Parks website.
  3. Reservations are recommended for the peak summer season and holidays, but walk-up sites are likely to be found at other times.
  4. This park offers basic, electric, water/electric sites.
  5. The Pittsburg Campground is open year-round. The Hermitage Campground is open March 1 through November 30.

When to go

Summer is when this park is popping, as the waters warm up enough for swimming and watersports. The weather may be humid and hot. In spring, you are likely to find fewer campers, as the chilly spring days are better for hiking. In fall, the woodlands begin to pop with color, reaching their peak in October. While weekends in spring and fall may be a little busier, you’ll still be likely to find a relaxed experience.

Know before you go

  • Make sure to note which campground you’ve booked a site in, and then put that campground name into your GPS. This park is spread out over several locations.
  • A full-service marina is located onsite, offering boat rentals, watersport supplies, and a camp store. 
  • The Hermitage camp store has canoe and kayak rentals.
  • Two well-developed swim beaches are located near the campgrounds, with onsite restrooms and changing facilities.
  • The dump station, showerhouses, and campsite water spigots are not available November through March.
