RED BLUFF CAMPGROUND

Three new camping loops were constructed above the Huzzah Creek floodplain – Ridge Top Loop, Creek Loop, and Group Loop - each of which have modern restrooms, water, and electricity on 2023. A new shower house, a dump station, and second pavilion were also added for visitor convenience. Camping spurs are variable in size and layout to accommodate recreational vehicles and trailers of all types. A fourth camping loop, Pines Overlook, was renovated but remains a non-electric loop. Recreation Many sites are within 200 yards of Huzzah Creek, where tubing and swimming are enjoyed by visitors. The water can be swift-moving at times and rocks and drop-offs are not marked. Fishing is also popular in the area and anglers can expect to find bass, perch and catfish. The Red Bluff Trail lies within the boundaries of the campground. It is a 1.2-mile loop that winds through a pine plantation and big oak timber, into an adjoining hollow before returning to the campground. The short trail provides an opportunity for visitors to enjoy a variety of ecological communities, while reaping the benefits of a half-hour of hiking. Facilities The campground offers several large sites available for tent and RV camping. All campground loops offer 30 amp & 50 amp pedestals, except for Pines Overlook (PO). Individual picnic sites are available as well, some of which have shelters. Two accessible group picnic shelters can be reserved and can accommodate up to 74 people (PAV 1 has electric and lighting). Additional sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Each site is equipped with a picnic table, lantern post and campfire ring with grill. Vault toilets, flush toilets, showers and drinking water are provided. The roads within the campground are paved. Natural Features Large, red bluffs on the opposite side of Huzzah Creek, gravel bars along the creek, a mixture of pools and riffles and natural vegetation provide a backdrop for a very relaxing camping experience at the campground. Red Bluff is located in the Potosi-Fredericktown Ranger District of the Mark Twain National Forest.
