Just start the app and use it! Happy Camping!

User Reviews
This is a quiet place approximately seven miles west and north from Bethany, Missouri. There are only four camping spots- gravel spots for campers or the grass for tents. There are no facilities or electricity of any kind. It’s a hard packed gravel of about 1/4 mile, so I was able to ride my motorcycle in and park without any trouble. In the distance, you can sometimes hear traffic on the road, but overall it’s just crickets and birds. There’s a stream nearby, and there are rules for fishing posted on the bulletin board. The site is well kept and clean, and one of the fire rings had a stack of wood. It’s a pleasant surprise. I’m sitting here listening to crickets and Bob White Quail, etc..
Very difficult to figure out.
I triad to cancel is imposible
Informative. Glad I have it.
Awesome underground app. Just wish you could save locations!
Why is your map mismarked, saying that the Gulf of Mexico is the gulf of America. This is not true and you shouldn’t be misleading the public with this.
Have not camped in any of these areas yet but planning to use it for a trip out west. It is easy to use which is a bonus. The only I wish this app had was the ability to make and see comments and/or reviews of the spots from other people who have stayed.
What a blessing to have access to this amazing resource! Thank you!
I have a screen shot of the info on the app PRIOR to downloading this being a “1 time fee of $ .99. “. Lookes like I have been charged TWICE now, and I don’t see a way to cancel this…..
It’s a wonderful concept but I can’t get it to display my filters. Zooming in worked for a while and then stopped working for some reason. I have tried turning my phone on and off, deleting the app and reloading, making sure my filters are applied but all my filters won’t show up! I have pushed and read about every button but still can’t get my filters to show on the map. Had it working once, then all filters gone and nothing seems to work to get them.
