Smithville Lake is a County Park....Corp of Engineers ...the county is Clay. There are 2 BIG campgrounds. We mainly camp on the Crows Creek side and they have recently upgraded all the sites to 50a. They only Loop that has water is C Loop. ( maybe equestrian does too ) There is another FULL hook up campground below the dam of the lake called Smiths Fork. It is run by the City of Smithville. ALL of these campgrounds have a lot of sites to fit the BIG 45 foot rigs. State Parks are all around Smithville Lake. Easy search of that is Missouri State Parks. Hope this helps y'all. I live in Kearney, MO about 20 minutes east of Smithville on 92 hwy. Kearney's claim to fame is Home of Jesse James and tours of the house and farm. He is also buried in town. About 2 minutes east of QT on same side of street...LOL. I stumbled on to your channel watching the Brazen Brits doing the word challenge thing with y'all and then your channel for the food eating thing. Enjoy your travels..............Mike

I grew up about 2 miles from the Walnut Grove RV park and so we used to stay there when we came back to town because our family still lives just minutes away. But a couple of years ago we were staying there and my wife was up at the shower house taking a shower and a man, totally naked, starts to come in the shower. My wife yelled that it was the woman's shower and he said sorry I thought it was the men's. I went down the hall to the men's and found his underwear on the bathroom floor but he was nowhere to be found. Creepy! The last time we called to see if they had a spot for a month's stay it was going to be around $2,000 because they said the races were going. So now we stay at Shady Acres or the KOA in Lawrence, KS. The KOA in Lawernce is right off I-70 so it's a straight shot to Kansas City about a 30 minute drive. Thanks for doing this video. Now we have seen some of the other options that we have always wondered what they looked like. By the way, I wasn't trying to trash Walnut Grove, I still think it's a safe place to stay if you're wanting to be close to Kansas City but definitely check the rates before booking.
