Greenville Recreation Area
Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers
New listing
Greenville Recreation Area is located on the northern end of Wappapello Lake Project, nestled on the banks of the St. Francis River. The spacious campground is built on the original site of historical Old Greenville City. The Memory Lane trail winds along the historical foundations and streets, offering a glimpse back in time, and the Greenville Trail, a three-mile hike or bike trail, connects the modern city of Greenville to the campground. The expansive grounds, multiple playgrounds, play courts and large event area provide opportunities for all ages and abilities. The three-mile hike/bike trail is open year-round and a great choice for families. The lake is home to some of Missouri's most sought after game fish, including largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, white bass and channel catfish. Hunting and trapping are popular activities around the lake, boasting 44,000 acres for public use. Special events are put on throughout the year, but the annual Black Powder Rendezvous, Old Greenville Days and Halloween Boo Bash are notable experiences in Greenville. The day use portion of the recreation area includes 14 picnic sites, a playground, basketball court, volleyball court, horseshoe pits, day use shelter, and boat ramp with courtesy dock. Facilities within the campground include showers, a playground, and 106 campsites with full hookups, consisting of electric, water and sewer. Wappapello Lake, fed by the St. Francis River, has a seemingly endless string of secluded coves hugged by a winding, wooded shoreline. The public recreation area spans 45,000 acres in the southeastern Ozark foothills. The St. Francis River provides multiple caves, gravel bars and open stretches of water surrounded by open woodlands and rocky bluffs. There are 9 trail systems along Wappapello Lake to explore, and the nearby Ozark Trail is the only horse-friendly trail at the lake. The Pine Ridge Nature Trail, Shell Lake Archery Trail, Wappapello Wildflower Trail and greenhouse areas, and the lower St. Francis River are approximately 22 miles away. Mingo Wildlife Refuge is approximately 31 miles away, Lake Wappapello State Park approximately 21 miles, and Sam A. Baker State Park 14 miles. The nearby 34 Bridge Recreation Area is an ideal place to swim or picnic along its large gravel bars.
