The best waterfall camping near Kansas City

·

Waterfall chasers, Kansas City has you covered. With over 460 campsites near cascades and flowing water, you’ll find spots that put the sound of falling water right outside your tent. Expect average night rates around $33, though some sites dip as low as $30. You can set up at Annie's HIDEOUT Musicians Camp (33 reviews), tap into the local scene at Timber Creek Farm (15 reviews), or get away from it all at Owl Creek Cabins (2 reviews). Most sites let you bring your dog, build a campfire, and rinse off in a hot shower. Between snow sports in winter, hiking trails year-round, and easy-access fishing holes, you’ll stay busy—or just kick back by the water and let the day drift by.
