If you like to fish, probably a good spot. Also probably a great spot for summertime party. The spots have a concrete pad making setting up easy. The spaces are very tight to your neighbors. No full service bathrooms only portapotties. There is an old school play ground for the kiddos. It’s a one way traffic spot so it seemed locals come there to hang out, which wasn’t peaceful.

It’s a one way traffic spot so it seemed locals come there to hang out, which wasn’t peaceful. The biggest issue was being next to the train tracks, so if you are a light sleeper, pass. For the price and view though, I think it’s worth it. Most spots do not have a fire pit, so bring something for your fire

It's right on the mighty Mississippi River! And you can watch the barges maneuver into and out of the lock. The location is a great basecamp for exploring the surrounding area. The town of Canton has a couple nice places to eat, a friendly library, and a good laundry.

RV sites or you might call them spaces (but to be honest we’ve stayed at KOAs that were tighter)just about as close to the river as you can get. Twenty three sites total, 17 are Full hookups rest are water and electric. We had full hookups all worked as the should. All sites are back in on concrete pads with 20/30/50 amp electric. NO restrooms or laundry, they do provide decent WiFi. Dump station...

Just a few hundred yards down from the lock and dam great for viewing any barge traffic.

Beautiful view of the Mississippi River and Dam. The sunrises are top-notch 👌. It has 22 campsites with concrete pads, water, a bumping station, and a dumpster. It has no bathroom facilities or showers. Good spot for fishing. Just be nice to the locals 😉

About the closest you can get to the Mississippi River and a lock and dam. Wide open campground, flat concrete pads, somewhat close together.
