Cross Creek RV Park

Happy Fathers Day

2011-06-18T18:51:00.003-05:00

I would like to take this time and wish all the Dads out there a very Happy Fathers Day!

Dads remember the awesome responsibility you have to raise your children to be productive members of society and not some liberal progressive sucking all the government money paid for by the hard working American citizens. Teach them to honor God, Country and Family.

Do I hear an AMEN.

Think Warm Thoughts

2011-01-21T20:32:00.002-06:00

It's cold outside and the Cross Creek RV Park Lake is froze over, I break the ice daily so the two ducks I have left will survive the hungry predetors.

Counting down to 58 days to the official start of Spring and looking forward to seeing the Cross Creek Seasonals in February I think of warm campfire thoughts. Feb 19th. the group meets here at the Oar House Cabin for fun and fellowship.

The 19th is also the Mardi-Gras Pub Crawl here at the Lake of the Ozarks. 18 buses will safely transport participants to 17 bars & restaurants. The buses start running at 4pm and the cost is only $5.00 per person. And it includes drop off/pick up at participating hotels.

A hint of Fall

I recently had a visit from my two grandson's, and oh ya, their mommy and daddy to! They were here in early September and happened to get a few great shots of the leaves starting to show that Fall is setting it's way in!

This first photo is a shot taken from the lake here at the campground looking up towards the RV sites.

The second photo is of our 5 ducks making their way to land with the Survivor Island in the background. The weather has been beautiful the past month, getting to the upper 70's during the day and the upper 50's in the evening.

It's been slowly cooling off since then. Take a look at these photos of the campground.

We are gearing up for our 2nd annual Halloween Party on October 30th. We will be offering Hay Rides, Campfire fun with ghost stories, and roasted marshmallows. We will also be having a Pot Luck Dinner, and Haunted Party in the Pavilion.

Happy New Year

2010-01-01T21:37:00.002-06:00

Happy New Year to all my Camping Friends and Fans. May God Bless you and your family throughout the new year and beyond.

Can you believe it, the phones have been ringing and we are already taking reservations for 2010 season. I'm getting nervous, I always start too many projects in the winter and I'm afraid I won't be ready come spring!

The last two days Milton and I have laid tile in the new cabin, both the bathroom and kitchen floors. Hopefully tomorrow we will grout them. We have also installed the cedar trim along the ceiling and center beam. That was a little shaky on a 20' ladder.....oooooooo..... glad it's done.

That's all for now...
Think happy warm thoughts, campfires and Smores.........yum yum.
and remember... Go Camping AMERICA

Hello Friends

I'd like to take this opportunity to Welcome you to the Lake of the Ozarks most UNIQUE Campground.

I hope this blog will provide communication, education and a vacation to all who visit.

Right now an update of what's going on.

We purchased a small house and 2 acres adjacent to the Campground property and we are converting that into a new Cabin rental. We have yet to tile the floors inside and we are attempting to replace the old roof with a nice shiny new GREEN metal roof. If the weather permits we will complete half of the roof tomorrow.
We have cleared off all the trees on the dam and are looking to place a culvert in the overflow and fill in some washed out areas.
we have cut trees from the tenting area to give room to larger tents.

That will be all for my first post, please stay in touch.

Thank you and have a GREAT day,

John
