About
Thibaut Point Park occupies a scenic peninsula on Harry S. Truman Lake, managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The campground sits among mature hardwoods of oak and hickory with cedar mixed throughout, offering shade and a natural setting for camping. Wildlife including whitetail deer, turkey, hawks, ospreys, and eagles frequent the area. The park features 44 campsites spread across multiple loops. Loop B contains 39 sites with 50-amp electric service and water hookups suitable for RVs up to 60 feet. Five primitive sites accommodate tent campers. Group Camp A offers 19 sites with 30-amp service and a pavilion, while Group Camp C provides primitive tent areas with a large fire pit. Two day-use group picnic shelters with electric and lighting are available for events. Truman Lake is renowned for fishing, with anglers targeting crappie, largemouth bass, walleye, paddlefish, and blue and channel catfish. Approximately 8,800 acres of standing timber were left in the lake to provide quality aquatic habitat. A swimming beach and boat ramp provide direct lake access from the campground.
