About

Robertsville State Park Campground sits on 1,225 acres along the Meramec River in Franklin County, Missouri, approximately 40 miles west of St. Louis. The campground features 25 sites total: 12 basic sites including three with wooden tent platforms, and 13 electric sites, plus one family campsite for larger groups. Established in 1979, the park preserves land that was once a working farm in the mid-1800s, and its landscape includes scenic bluffs, hardwood forests, river bottomlands, and open meadows dotted with cedars. The campground offers modern amenities during the on-season including flush restrooms with hot showers, laundry facilities, a sanitary dump station, and frost-free water hydrants throughout. Sites are well-spaced and shaded, providing privacy between campers. During the off-season (November through March), the restroom near campsite 27 remains open. The campground is fully reservable up to 12 months in advance through the Missouri State Parks reservation system, though unreserved sites may be available on a walk-up basis. Recreational opportunities include fishing for catfish, sunfish, and walleye in the Meramec River, boating with an on-site launch ramp, and hiking on two trails: the 0.9-mile Spicebush Trail and the 2.8-mile Lost Hill Trail. The park also features picnic areas, shelters, a playground, and excellent waterfowl viewing opportunities. Firewood is available for purchase from the campground host, and visitors must comply with current firewood advisories.
