Kettle Campground

We booked one night online. Got to the site just before their 10am opening and I used the bathroom. It was horrific. Horrific. Filthy with huge and numerous ‘Daddy Longlegs’ spiders everywhere in both of the stalls. If you think about it - if the bathroom was cleaned regularly (which it clearly was not) how and why would such large, mature spiders be everywhere? And I’ll say it again - filthy (I didn’t include pics of the condition of the toilet in the pics I took - I should have, because it was disgusting, but I wasn’t planning to use them in a review - just to freak out my spider-hating husband who made the reservation here…) The place obviously had a majority of long-term/permanent inhabitants. I enjoy rustic but this was very run-down and ill-managed. We found it via a 3-year-old Good Sam catalog. I cannot believe it meets their standards, and will be checking with them on its conditions. We left without even checking in or even attempting a refund (which I read in the reviews was next to impossible, while my husband was finding another place), went to another campground a short distance down the road that includes the word Wander, and had such a wonderful time there that we extended our stay an additional 3 nights. It was the antithesis of Kettle Campground. In case the owners would like to refute, our reservation was under my husband’s name, which is different from mine, and we were the people who should have checked in in 6/26 for one night.

I absolutely loved this campground. Brian and Austin are terrific at running the place. Stayed in a beautiful cabin, we had everything we could ask for. The boys seemed to have a lot of work, but they only had super nice things to say about the owners. We stayed at this campground years ago when someone else owned it and it's so nice now. The bath house is spotless and you really get what you pay for. Chris checked us in and he was a delight. He asked about us and made us feel like he cared. We had a coffee station in our cabin and a small mini kitchen. Those items have been upgraded from our last stay. We will be back as the entire campground is so nice. Unlike another reviewer who posted about the ticks we didn't get one the entire stay, maybe she should watch where she's walking because it's that time of year and not blame the campground for her not looking out where she is going. Can't wait to be back and stay in our cabin again.

We're loving site 7 back by the pavilion! It's private, back in the corner, by gorgeous tall trees! No Dish satellite, but that's not what we're here for! Jennifer is super sweet, and I'm happy to be in my happy place, Eureka Springs!

All new utilities since last stayed. New gravel, overall upgrades. They the left the trees so you still have the Ozark camping experience. Kudos to the new owners.

I think the pictures on website and google make this place look better than it really is. It had some plus sides I.e internet, Landry, bathhouse. BUT the spaces are EXTREMELY SMALL! If you are looking for just a place to park an RV passing through, this place would be great. But for recreational purposes like we wanted, diffidently not the place. It is quite literally a parking place for RVs with about 10’ by 10’ square where they fit a homemade fire pit and picnic table. We paid for several nights but left after the first two days to go else where.
