Cricket Creek

About

Cricket Creek sits on the Long Creek Arm of Table Rock Lake, offering panoramic views of bright blue waters and the rocky Ozark bluffs that rise above the shoreline. The 37-site campground provides a comfortable camping experience with electric hookups (30/50 amp), water at each site, hot showers, and a dump station. A sandy swimming beach anchors one end of the campground while a full-service marina extends over the water at the other. The on-site marina offers boat rentals, tubes, water skis, wakeboards, fishing licenses, fuel, and basic groceries. Table Rock Lake is acclaimed as one of the best bass fishing lakes in the hemisphere, though crappie, catfish, and bluegill are also abundant. The crystal-clear waters attract scuba divers who explore submerged remnants of an old town and grove of oak trees. Additional amenities include a boat ramp, playground, and picnic area. The campground is about 12 miles from Branson, Missouri, for supplies and entertainment. The Dewey Short Visitors Center at Table Rock Dam offers educational films and scenic hikes.
