Our stay was enjoyable. Overall the property is dated. General maintenance would help; spray weeds, slope water drainage away from sites. An overall freshen up would do wonders.

Friendly staff, clean park, and clean amenities.Waterpark could use some upgrade, need a shower house next to the ranger smith cabins, & no screened porch as advertised on the website for the ranger smith cabins.Only bad thing is we couldn’t use the toilet in our cabin as the plumbing was having issues.

Park is run down. Needs a lot of updates. One example of how things are.... Waste cans for dog poop we completely full. They smell so bad you can't get close to them. Employees were more motivated by cell phones than helping. Parts of water park are broken and closed. Went to do the tie dye and employees told us they didn't know how to do it, we were left to do it on our own, they went back to playing on their phone.

Sites not mowed, everything was run down, trash everywhere, water park had areas not working, no shade in kids areas of pool, needs a lot of TLC. Was once probably a nice park but now definitely paying for the good old days.

Check-in was smoothBrought a bunch of kids that we’re going to a Wrestling camp and the manager helped us use the waterpark even though they only needed it for one day of our five day stay. Very kind of them to work with us..

Every thing is nice, but the bathrooms at the water park. Very nasty!

The Boo Boo cabin we stayed in was not the cleanest but it was the right size for my family of 4.The water park was perfect for younger kids age 3 & 6. The wave pool was a family favorite.Public bathrooms on the entire campsite are definitely in need of major repairs.There needs to be a better explanation of what is included and what costs extra with all the activities at the recreation center.Not once in our 3 night 5 day stay did we see any of the characters.Overall we will visit Jellystone again but probably not the Mark Twain one.

We enjoyed the campground, use of the golf cart, amenities and activities for the kids. There were lots of things to do. The rain ruined our chance to try the water zone, so we did not get to experience it. It looked really fun though. The roads could use some work with the potholes, the grounds around our campsite were muddy and needed to have some grass seed down. The trees could have been trimmed up around the campsite as well. But, overall we enjoyed it and the kids had a great time! The cartoon café had good food and treats.

We had high hopes but drove away disappointed, was supposed to be a fun getaway but ended up being a watching the clock to check out time so we could go home. Cabin was pretty rough, paid for a cabin with a separate bedroom but the door was so warped you couldn't close it, leaving a solid 6-8inch gap. Bathroom door did not lock or shut properly so it could just be pushed open whenever. Oven was beyond disgusting and we didn't have anything to try and clean it with so no cooking, so much grease an oil in and out that it immediately started smoking when we tried to make dinner, ended up having to drive to Monroe City everday to eat. Main ac didn't work, mini split for bedroom was missing the remote? (Noticed all the other cabins AC was working/On) When maintenance came out all I got was a shrug and sorry. Kid was super hot and did not sleep due to no AC. Mesh on porch was ripped open so any chance of sitting outside without being swarmed on the porch was 0. Not that we cared a whole lot but the Wifi/Cable didn't work until the second night. All campfire wood was soaked but your not allowed to bring your own so... Couldn't really enjoy a fire. Water park was missing a bunch of features for the kiddo but she still had fun since she's under 3. Everyone was super pleasant however throughout the park. I understand it's a cabin but for Hotel prices I would've liked 5-10% more effort for upkeep. Wish I could've gotten a partial refund. We will not be back to the Jelly Stone site after this trip. Just really really let down by the whole experience, we really wanted to have a good time but it didn't happen
