Stockton Lake - COE/Hawker Point
Overview
Hawker Point is a scenic Corps of Engineers campground situated on the eastern shores of Stockton Lake in Missouri. This park offers a tranquil escape for RVers who appreciate natural beauty and water-based recreation. Located on a gentle peninsula, the campground provides many sites with views of the expansive blue water, known for being some of the cleanest in the state. It is a quiet destination where the focus remains on the landscape and the peaceful rhythm of lake life.
Location & Surroundings
Nestled just outside the town of Stockton, MO, the park is surrounded by lush oak and hickory forests and striking limestone bluffs. Stockton Lake is famous for its consistent winds, making it a premier destination for sailing in the Midwest. The surrounding area remains largely undeveloped, providing a peaceful environment where the sounds of nature outweigh the noise of traffic. The peninsula location ensures that water is never more than a short walk from any campsite.
Amenities & Park Features
The park features over 60 campsites, many of which are equipped with electric hookups suitable for various RV sizes. Guests have access to essential facilities including a central dump station, pressurized water spigots, and modern shower houses. For those traveling with watercraft, the convenient boat ramp makes it easy to launch for a day on the lake, while the on-site playground and picnic shelters provide space for families to gather and relax during their stay.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Beyond the park boundaries, visitors can explore the Stockton Lake Multi-Use Trail, which is popular for hiking, birdwatching, and mountain biking. Anglers frequent these waters to catch walleye, crappie, and smallmouth bass. A short drive away, the Stockton State Park Marina offers additional services and boat rentals, while the local town provides charming shops and seasonal festivals, such as the annual Black Walnut Festival, for those looking to experience local culture.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is an ideal choice for boaters and sailors looking for easy lake access and a quiet place to rest. It also appeals to budget-conscious RVers who value the well-maintained standards and spacious layouts typical of COE parks. If you prefer a rustic, scenic environment over a high-density commercial resort, Hawker Point offers the perfect balance of basic comforts and immersive outdoor experiences for a weekend getaway or an extended stay.

We had booked a 3 night stay at their camp ground. It was our first time taking our 4,2, and 10 month olds with us. We had a great time but we decided it was in the best interests of the kids and our dog (half husky) to only stay one night. They called and asked I'd We were still camping and I told them we decided to leave early. The wonderful lady decided to refund us and only had us pay 1 night. We definitely weren't planning on getting a refund. This was our fault we left early no fault to them or the campsite. It was so beautiful and nice and clean. Even the restrooms they had were clean and stocked with toilet paper. We definitely plan to be back and better prepared

My original camp site at another camp ground was under water so we booked last minute here and turned out to be the best. It was clean and quiet with direct access to the water. Close to town too so running to the local store wasn't a hassle. We will definitely return

Have nothing but a wonderful experience at Hawker Point Campground on all of our visits this summer. It’s a beautiful place with a wonderful vibe and some of the best staff I’ve ever encountered at a campground. Everything is always clean, and you can tell they are genuinely sweet folks!
