We stayed in Cabin 10. And when I say cabin, I'm using the term loosely. It's a shed with a door, a mini fridge, an AC unit & a couple beds.
It worked for us...a place to crash in the AC after a long day on the river.
We left early our last morning there & there was no Dropbox for the keys. We weren't the only ones left standing at the office door wondering what to do, as they weren't open yet...so this is something they definitely need to work out.
Bathrooms are a hike & you definitely don't want to take your shoes off when you shower. Yikes!
Overall, it met our needs. Kudos for the genius who came up with the shed/cabin idea. ~Very lucrative at $80/night!
I spent a week in cabin three with eight other people and it was incredible! Craig was incredibly helpful with everything; he even had a super quick fix for a burner that went out while we were there. He fixed it in less than an hour and he was very helpful with rafts and canoes every day. I highly recommend staying at Lazy Days!
As you know, as far as floating and camping trips go a whole heckuvalot depends on weather and crowds. We just happened to come across this little gem during the best part of the summer, a warm sunny day between storms. Since it was a weekday there were very few folks on the river. There were only families, retired folks, and a few boy scouts. That made for an incredibly pleasant, unrushed, and luxurious float. We were surprised when we found the place because it was so tiny, and there weren't any people there except for the owners. There were no hoards of drunkies waiting in lines for the next bus out. That's what we're used to when it comes to float trips (mind you, I like to get my party on as much as the next person). No bus ride was required. The starting point was right there. We just parked, paid, walked down the trail, and jumped into the raft. Pretty freakin' sweet deal. The campground itself looked perfect, with a few cute little cabins. We decided it was too hot to camp so didn't pack our gear, but when the owner found out he said he would've given us an air conditioned cabin for less than the going rate since it was a weekday. And next time to give him a heads up so he can make us an offer before we change our plans. Nice guy, great place, and we'll definitely go there again.
They are right on one of the rivers that pass right through Noel. They also provide rides to canoe dropoff locations (so you can canoe back to camp), or back from where you stopped your trip, if you started your trip at the camp. The campground, of course, is right on the river, so if there is a lot of rain, you might not be able to stay. Do call ahead if you are unsure of the weather.
We had about 20 people camping and floating. Craig was great and made sure we were well taken care of! He is making many upgrades to the cabins etc. we can't wait to come back next year!
Poor attitude and communication from staff. The owner had no interest in making sure that we had a fun weekend. Accommodations are substandard. There are too many other good float locations in Missouri to bother with this one. Do yourself a favor and find another.
