Mill Creek COE, Table Rock Lake, MO

Last weekend we went to Mill Creek COE campground on Table Rock Lake, near Kimberling City, MO. The campsites have water and electricity and there is a dump station.

Friday night sunset photos over the lake. The campsite was a back in so I was able to exploit the advantages of the rear dinette floor plane.

Airstream at the Campground

There was a 2015 Airstream 25RB at the campground. My wife got talking to them and they purchased the Airstream so they could visit National Parks. He was a retired National Park Ranger. They needed something that would allow them to camp in National Park campground.

Looks like you had a very lovely time on Table Rock Lake. That campground looks perfect. This makes a FB layout very advantages. But I find myself in a double row campground where the back of my trailer is 10 feet from the back of someone elses. I rarely get a lake view. Even though I have a long trailer, I prefer a back in site along the perimeter of the campground where I might get a tree to look at.

I guess our curtains are shut more than they are open as we're outdoors exploring during the day, and inside reading or knitting during the evening.

Thanks for the great photos.

David

The Casita, is small but its a great trailer. I've completed some U turns and pulled into some gas stations that I'd never be able to do with the 25fb. I never had to worry about hail or the size of the campsite. However, after now owning my 25fb I don't think I could go back.

That is a beautiful campground. COE got it goin' on!
As we were leaving a rally last week at Salmon Lake Park in Grapeland, TX, there was a Casita/Scamp/Burro/Escape rally coming in. There were 5 Casitas, 1 Escape fifth wheel, and one Scamp 5th wheel when we left. They were expecting 60 trailers.

Mill Creek on Tablerock Lake is a wonderful campground. Your trailer looks nice in the woods.

It is just in our backyard. We saw two AS on hwy 65 north of Branson this afternoon. ONe was a bright shiny older model with a single axle and Kansas tags. The other was a newer widebody, this one turned off at the Lambert's exit....somehow the idea of going to a restaurant whose main feature is throwing food at you is not my idea of fun. Reminds me of dinners growing in a family of ten kids. Our motto....the one who eats the fastest gets the most!

beautiful photos!

Nice pictures. We are over in Ozark and I think we are going to have to check this campground out next camping season. Campsties like this are what the rear dinette and window were made for in my opinion.

Come on Jim...they throw the rolls "to" you...not at you. Well I guess it depends on how nice you are .
