A few summers ago we took a three week vacation and toured the midwest in our new motorhome. About 25 miles west of St. Louis on I-44 (Eureka) we passed a Six Flags Theme Park.
Since it was fairly early in the morning, we decided to stop, park the RV in the lot and spend the day at the park. We could take our time at Six Flags because we had reservations at Yogi-Bear’s Jellystone Park conveniently located less than a half-mile away.
Exhausted from a hot July day at the park, we were really looking forward to pulling in to our campsite and relaxing for the nite. We were pleasently suprised when we entered the campground. The “Ranger Station” check-in was quick and the staff was friendly. The station also included a small general store with groceries and camping supplies, a laundromat (open 24 hours), restrooms, showers and a computer modem station. FREE Wi-Fi is also available at this campground.
This campground is comfortably small… with only about 60 sites and many had full-hook-ups. The interior roads were paved and fairly easy to navigate. Our site was a little small but level and shaded.
There was a very nice pool with a poolside snack bar, a Yogi Express train ride thru the park for the kids, video arcade, mini-golf and a new playground. The kids had plenty to do here. If fact, we liked it so much we decided to spend an extra day here before we packed it up and continued our tour thru the Midwest.
We highly recommend this Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park!
