Not an amazing campground per se, but for the price and the surroundings it is ok. We used the laundry facility and both washers and both dryers were working. There are fishing ponds right there and for $7 the entire family can fish (license is good for a year). The area itself is well maintained and close to the golf course and the rubbery walking/running track. There isn’t sewer hookups but a dump station right there (several people had a portable sewage tank to transport and dump), and of course there is no WiFi. With WiFi and full hookups this place would be amazing. WiFi - None AT&T Cell Signal - OK (a couple bars)

This is a favorite near St Louis.. quiet and have 2 lakes. Plenty of frogs, birds, and you can bring your own kayak (no motorized vehicles on the water). MWR also have other things to do such as Archery

Overall, it's not a good campground, which is disappointing. Laundry facilities have been out of service for 1 month so far. Last night the water stopped working (looks like somebody hit a tap with theor vehicle and they cut off water to the half the camp ground instead of just usolating the borken tap), and there is no number to report issues during off hours to look into moving spots. If you have anything towed over 30ft you will struggle with many of the spots and in result, many spots are full of ruts (and the now damaged tap). Maybe good for a 1 or 2 night stay but staying here TDY has been very difficult, and unfortunately there are no other options for us. Whoever is in charge of recreation services really should do better. On the plus side the staff are very nice on the phone when making reservations. Also met one of the maintained guys last week and he was very nice to talk to. Edit 4/13 i decided to bump this up from 2 stars to 3. The water incident was the on call water company who felt the need to punish everybody instead of just isolating the affected spot. Supposedly they are fixing the washing machines this weekend so we will see if that actually gets resolved soon.

Clean, quiet with nice amount of space between campers! This facility has about the cleanest, newest bathroom/laundry of all the bases we’ve traveled! Remember to have your camper registration/plate number in hand when you reserve a spot. You are not allowed to reserve a spot without it. Plenty of areas to walk or ride a bike too.

We are staying at the Scott Air Force Base Famcamp. It is located at Scott Lake on the base. 22 sites with water and 50 amp / 30 amp electrical service. You must have base access to utilize the outdoor recreation facilities. 30 day stay limit.

Grassy "teardrop" is a good location to pitch a tent, with nearby shower and restroom facility, and electricity to inflate an airbed.

An outstanding RV and fishing area on base! We lived here for a couple months as we were PCSing (thank goodness it wasn't the busy season yet because they limit you to 30 days max). It's on the far side of base, so it is quiet and secluded. There are not that many lots but they are shaded and good sized. The showers and laundry all worked well and were pretty clean. The area is beautiful to walk around or go fishing. Only downside is these are not full hookups (only electric and water). So bring a portable dump tank if you will be here a while. They do have a dump station on the premise, so still 5 stars.

Good sites. Not able to talk to anyone on the weekend. If there is an open spot take it and pay for it. Make sure it isn't reserved though.

This is a good facility. Tucked into the trees for some protection from the sun. Restrooms are big and very clean. sites are long enough for any sized rig. Dump station is by the restroom. Convenient. The only downside is the lack of sewer hookups at each site. That having been said it is really convenient to St Louis and reasonable to Springfield.
