Our Favorite Branson-Area Campground // Mill Creek [EP 35]

Far enough away for solitude, but close enough for convenience, the Mill Creek Corps of Engineers campground provides the perfect location in the Branson area. In fact, of the many campground choices on Table Rock Lake, it is our favorite...so please don’t come here...we want to still be able to get a spot. 😊 We hope you enjoy our comprehensive review of this wonderful place to camp.

Super nice campground and Lake!

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Totally agree. It is our favorite campground on Table Rock Lake. We were just there again two weeks ago. Ready to go back!

[@hle625]

We saw you at Mill Creek this weekend! My kids kept telling me to say hi because they thought it was so cool to see "youtubers" haha every time you walked by they would yell "hey mom here come the youtubers" and they loved your glowing dog leash!!

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

How fun! We really enjoy our time at that campground! We would have loved to say hello. Jasper especially loves meeting new people. 😊 We hope you had a wonderful weekend! Thank you so much for following our channel.

[@RVingillini]

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Such a great state park. We just love staying out on the peninsula. Can't wait to get back there!

[@MellovesYah]

@Phillip Morris How are you doing today? I hope you’re doing good

[@horizon42q]

Cool one.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Thanks! It is definitely an awesome campground -- our favorite in the Branson area for sure.

[@dorianboone9757]

I look at a lot of KZbin videos on campgrounds and I hold your channel up as the gold standard. Your reviews are concise but very informative and always of high quality. The fact that you guys have hit a lot of the places near where I live (Arkansas) is definitely a bonus. Before I hit a campground I always check to see if you have a video on it 🤣. I know you guys will give a great representation of what to expect. Please keep the content coming!

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

We appreciate your comments so much! Thank you so much for the encouragement. We are having fun creating content and hope that you stick around for more adventures. :)

[@wendimiller6903]

Love COE Campgrounds! Been looking for one near Branson for when we visit. Nicely done tour.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Thank you so much! This is certainly a great campground, but you need to book way in advance...especially for the best spots. Happy camping!

[@joanngoodin4625]

We have stayed here twice since watching your story. We have stayed on both points. Honestly don't think there is a bad spot in the whole park. We stayed at spot 43 the wind can be strong on the point .didn't put our awning up. Stayed at site 15 which was also lakefront. You have direct lake access to swim or fish from this site. Love your recommendations. Keep them coming!

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Sounds like you are enjoying it just like we do! You are correct in that all of the spots there are great. We typically try to get out on the peninsula. Happy camping!

[@AcmeNewsLLC]

Great representative video.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Thank you so much! Mill Creek is an awesome place to camp.

[@user-ky6uy9om6g]

Great video, thank you!,,,

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for dropping us a note!

[@camperbum]

Hello from West Plains, it's is our favorite also, but summer is tuff time to get in there, no worries, their's lots of other campgrounds in the area. We also have another favorite, if you haven't been there yet, Cranfield in Mountain Home Arkansas or Bull Shoals White River these are awesome places, thank's for sharing.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Thanks so much for leaving a comment! We have not been to Cranfield campground, but we have been to Bull Shoals and love it. We hope you come along and see more of our adventures. Happy camping!

[@camperbum]

@@TodayisanAdventureDay hi again, we're going to be at Cranfield in a week, so drive down and check it out, we'll be there for a 11 day's at 59 and 25 for the second half of our stay. I've been watching and sharing you're videos, we've been wondering about some of these places, so now you've helped us find new places, if you haven't already seen Moab, we just went through there this summer, awesome places to visit. Hopefully meet you 2 someday, we've meet some really great people in our own backyard (Missouri) 😊

[@lydan6018]

@Dave Hello Dave, how are you doing? I hope you’re doing great

[@camperbum]

@@lydan6018 do good, getting ready for winter, how are you doing?

[@lydan6018]

@@camperbum I am doing good Dave, thanks for asking. How are you this morning

[@krissto22]

Really enjoy watching your videos. So informative and fun. Like you we have ebikes so I was wondering if there were some nice biking trails down around Branson or Arkansas. We’re trying to plan a trip somewhere and not sure where. At first we thought maybe Michigan but the weather up north is too cold and too windy to be biking, so we thought maybe somewhere south. Need your help if you don’t mind. Never been to Missouri or Tennessee or Arkansas other than on a highway passing through. Hearing bad reviews from some family members doesn’t help either ☹️ The beautiful setting in this video feels like heaven. Oh, please help. How is the weather in Sept/Oct down there? We’re from around Chicago so the humidity doesn’t scare us but I wish we could be little more comfortable. Would love to hear from you, thanks much 😊

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Fall is a fabulous time to visit Branson and northwest Arkansas! The Table Rock Lake area in Branson is spectacular (I'm actually sitting outside the RV by the lake at Old 86 campground as I type this to you). It can get cool in October, but we camp all the through the first week of November. As far as biking goes, Missouri has two really great rails-to-trails projects. Look up the KATY trail, which goes all the way east/west across the state. There is a shorter trail in SW MO called the Frisco Highline trail which is also nice. Near Bentonville, AR, which is a great town to visit with lots of fun foodie restauarants and has the spectacular Crystal Bridges art museum (totally free), there are TONS of great bike trails. You'll have your choice of paved trails and mountain bike trails, depending on what you prefer. If you like to hike, NW AR is one of the best places to hike in the midwest. I hope this helps you make your decision, and maybe we'll see on you an adventure sometime! :)

[@krissto22]

Today is an Adventure Day Thank you so much for this speedy reply. Well, my hubby has his eyes set on Michigan, so I think we will be heading that way at the end of this month. We do want to do South West trip next fall, so maybe we could visit Branson and Arkansas on the way back. Then our neighbor mentioned that Branson is all decorated for Xmas, so maybe we could just drive down in December and stay in a hotel for couple of nights. We’ll see how it goes. It maybe too cold up north so we maybe home sooner. Would love to meet up with you guys and your doggie some day:) stay safe and happy camping😊 ps. the campground we will be staying in is also called Mill Creek, but in Mackinaw City, Mi 😀

[@comewheelinwithjohnandchristie]

What site did you stay in? So beautiful!

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

We love camping at Mill Creek, in fact, we camped there last weekend in our new travel trailer. We should have more vidoes coming soon. Our favorite site is 46 (or 47...anything along that side for sunset views across the lake).

[@comewheelinwithjohnandchristie]

@@TodayisanAdventureDay awesome! Thank you for the information and sunset tip! Congratulations on your new travel trailer! Hope to meet you guys one day!

How does this campground compare to Old Hwy 86?

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

We love Highway 86 campground as well and made a video on that one a few months ago. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqete4ejqZx4ja8 As far as comparing one to the other, we give Mill Creek a slight edge because we love the views, the orientation of the campsites (especially along the peninsula where most sites are pull-throughs), and it happens to be a little closer to our house which makes it more convenient. Both are great options!

[@lisadavis6478]

Today is an Adventure Day Thanks! Love your videos. We're recently retired and started exploring our great state with our fifth wheel and our Aussie pup. . We live in Columbia so we seem to following your lead. Need to check out Johnson Shut-Ins and Arrow Rock if you haven't done so already. Love your videos! Keep up the good work! Maybe we'll bump into you sometime.

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

We love both of those places! We have them both on our list to feature in an upcoming video. Hopefully, we will knock those out at some point in early 2020! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@robertdart6388]

What about Beaver Lake?

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

Beaver lake is certainly another beautiful area! We enjoy it as well.

[@kpadventures2238]

Can we camp on a tent?

[@TodayisanAdventureDay]

We have seen tents there occasionally, but usually they are set up next to an RV. I’m not sure I remember seeing just a tent on a site. It would certainly be allowed.
