Our favorite campground so far in Missouri is Onondaga Cave State Park. Along with its main attraction, Onondaga Cave, it also has Cathedral Cave, which at this time of the year was only open on weekends so we weren't able to tour it. We did take a tour of Onondaga Cave, and it was really worth it! I've toured quite a few caves in the past, but this was Check's first time really going into a cave and it really set the bar high. Onondaga is huge and every room had a different look. Some rooms were centuries older than others, some had water, some with new growth of stalactites and stalagmites, and others where growth had stagnated decades ago.

We really loved the campground at Onondaga too. We were there during the week when it wasn't busy, so we had plenty of room to ourselves and it just had a nice vibe to it. We took a hike and spent an evening with the host, Judy, who with her colorful Casita trailer showed no signs of letting age slow her down. We hope in 20 years that we are as active and happy about camping!
