About
Cuivre River State Park Campground brings an Ozarkian wilderness experience to northern Missouri's agricultural landscape. Despite its proximity to St. Louis, this large state park remains a nature lover's paradise with rugged terrain and extensive natural areas. The campground operates year-round with fully reservable sites in multiple configurations: basic campsites for tent camping, electric sites including 50-amp options, and full sewer/electric/water hookup sites for RVs. The park centers around 55-acre Lake Lincoln, which offers swimming at a designated beach, fishing for bass, catfish, and bluegill, and boating with electric motors only. Eight walk-in tent sites provide backcountry-style camping, while platform tent sites offer a unique camping option during the on-season. A separate equestrian campground with various hookup options serves riders exploring the horse trails. Organized group camps and special-use camping areas are also available. Extensive trail systems wind through the park's wild landscape, which showcases spectacular spring dogwood blooms and brilliant fall colors. Amenities include flush restrooms, showers, firewood and ice sales during on-season, and a visitor center. The campground features gated access with keypad entry for registered campers, closing at 10 p.m. during on-season and 8 p.m. off-season. During the off-season (November 1 through April 14), water is available from a frost-free spigot at Campsite 69. Camping is limited to 15 days within any 30-consecutive-day period.
