This Park Travel Review is about Lake Wappapello State Park. We visited and camped there in June of 2020. There are 2 campgrounds in the park. We camped at Asher Creek Campground with a great view of the water. We had an electric site for our A-frame Camper. There are also basic sites available.
From the park's website: Lake Wappapello’s clear Ozark waters can easily be accessed via the park’s three boat ramps for fishing or water skiing. Fishermen can cast their lines in hopes of reducing the lake’s excellent population of white bass, crappie and bluegill, as well as largemouth bass and catfish. Swimmers gain access to the lake at the park’s sand swimming beach. The park's store offers personal watercraft rentals as well as drinks, snacks and other necessities for your park visit. Swimmers, boaters and hikers all have easy access to picnic and day-use areas, which include picnic sites, shelters and playground equipment.
Visitors wishing to stay overnight have two lodging options. Eight modern cabins with kitchens are available with advance reservations. Perfect for families, these air-conditioned and heated cabins come equipped with linens, kitchen supplies, picnic tables and grills. Four rustic camper cabins are also available for reservation. Campers have a choice of two campgrounds -- one perched on the ridge and one nestled near the lake. Each campground features hot showers, modern restrooms, laundry facilities and sanitary dumping stations. Campsites range from basic to electric hookups.
