Ray Behrens fish cleaning station was closed for 2 days so we had to put in at Spaulding. Their cleaning station is wonderful. Campsite was good. Bathrooms were great. Someone even left soap in the bathroom I used.

Very nice except boats were parking at the bathrooms leaving no where to park.

Raccoons are very thick

Great asphalt drive with FHU and very clean. Bathhouse had private showers which is pretty rare. Nice quiet park. Also, Mark Twain state park is a great place to visit. We also visited Frank Russell park which had a nice walking trail and the sites were large with concrete drives.

Came up on Thursday last week and no one was at the entrance to get a tag...we went up later at the posted opening and closing, and no one was there. We specifically came up to go fishing and had to leave a note in the car that we did not receive a tag so we wouldn't get a parking ticket (found out later that we would have got a ticket)...not cool. Went up the next day at the time posted and no one was there, went out of the park and when we came back an hour later and there was a Corp of Engineer person there to get our tags. This is the second time this has happened (last trip too). Is there an alternative place to get a tag if this situation arises again? I don't need a ticket. What happened to the camp host?

We love mark twain lake and really like ray behrens campground. Id like to see longer or wider campsite driveways as parking was really hard with 2 vehicles. And itd be nice if the parking spots at the boat ramp were long enough to accommodate our truck and trailer.

All was good

Awesome campground to spend your vacation or weekend getaway in the summer. The Corp of Engineers did a spectacular job with this campground! Clean, spacious campsites. Friendly staff and so much more. Experience Ray Behrens campground at Mark Twain Lake. Thank you,Scott & Carmen Sebold

We had a lot of water, when we let you know about the problem someone was there to help with the problem the next day. Thank you!
@BillP8065510 · Camped on Jul 1, 2024 at Campsite #16
The new shower house is nice in Deer Run, but the drains would not drain and made it a mess for the next person in the bathroom. I camped in site 16....we got in late and went to use the lower bathroom and it was gone! I would not have camped where I did if I knew they had destroyed the lower bathroom. Question: The old bathrooms were used as Tornado shelters as well....what is the plan for those people that are not near the bathrooms and, how will you fit everyone into the new bathroom in case of an emergency?
@LinusS86643654 · Camped on Jul 1, 2024 at Campsite #3A
We were on site 3A which we have now heard is the worst site in the campground because it is so off level side to side. It took us HOURS to get level. In fact, on the first attempt, the camp side wheels were 8 off the ground. We finally got close to level by being as far over on the utility side of the driveway as possible. We had to build a platform at home to bring back so it wasnt a foot high bottom step! The Corps really needs to fix this site by building up the camp side of the site!!
@SethA0389F7895 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #24
The bathrooms are nice
@SheilaP5557783 · Camped on Jun 21, 2024 at Campsite #98
We were pleased with the campground however, the map on Recreation.gov indicates a restroom that in no longer exist. The new restroom/shower house is very nice but was not maintained very well during our stay. And was also quite a distance from our campsites.
@JeanneH9543073 · Camped on Jun 18, 2024 at Campsite #65
This is a beautiful, well cared for campground! The campsites are spread out nicely! It also had full hook-ups! We saw 18 deer on our trip back to the campground on one evening! Just beautiful! We will come again!

We have always had very good experiences while camping at Ray Behrens.
@BeckyB4075118 · Camped on May 31, 2024 at Campsite #64
Very nice campground and some with full hookups. Sites are nicely spaced.

As rookie campers, We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return in July.
@RichardS712869 · Camped on May 22, 2024 at Campsite #2A
We like the campground. Lot of room between spots. Always clean
@BillyH7040799 · Camped on May 19, 2024 at Campsite #32
We have been camping at Ray Behrens for many years now and have never had a bad experience. The only thing I have ever experienced was campground host that are not very friendly. Most of the time though they are good. Being a former campground host I feel they should be more person able. This last time however there was one who was not very friendly at all, she acted like she was going out of her way to help anyone.
@MikeS6104174 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #29
Picked site across from bathroom, lo and behold there was no bathrooms there. They moved them a never updated map. Got all items unloaded and there was no electricity! Went to checkpoint and they moved us to new location. Wont return there.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
