Great, quiet place to spend a couple of nights. Host was friendly, informative and great with communicating. I felt very welcomed here and would gladly stay again. Also, excellent sky view if you've got starlink :)

Stayed two nights at Basecamp RCB. Randy communicated with us along they and way waiting for us at the end of the driveway so we didn’t miss it. Guided us to a nice spot along the tree line. Beautiful night sky. They are far enough from town that the sky was full of stars. In the morning I was able to walk through along their wooded path to photograph the autumn leaves. Very peaceful. Randy and Cathy very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay with them again if they will have us.

Had a great night at RCB. Fantastic quiet spot. Could not have asked for a nicer host. Randy was great. Driveway is at the top of a hill. He greeted us and flagged us in. Helped us get our RV situated. Nice level spot. It rained most the evening so we didn’t get a chance to get to know Randy and Cathy but we will definitely stop there again when we’re in the area.

Can’t thank Randy and his wife Kathy enough for welcoming me and my pups last minute to his beautiful home. I was greeted with the most delicious homemade tomato bisque soup straight from their garden. Randy was kind enough to guide my 30’ with tow vehicle attached to make a u turn on his yard and it worked out perfectly. We went to a senior home to sing gospel charols for the residents and boy was it a treat! I woke up singing the same tunes in my head and along my trip. They have a pristine yard with abundance of nut trees and into the forest with trails. It was most enjoyable at night when the forest came to life with the sounds of the animals all night making my pups want to explore. This was by far the most hospitable, enjoyable and scenic host I’ve encountered, just wish I had time to stay longer and explore the natural preserve around the area.

The hosts of of Basecamp RBC are, without a doubt, some of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. Their communication from my first inquiry to the end if my stay, was perfect. The campsite was wonderful. Easy access, level lot, choice of full sun or partial shade and all within the beauty and peacefulness of the Ozark hills. If you are looking for a quiet, beautiful place to stay which also boasts wonderful hosts, then this is the place to go! I recommend them highly and will be staying at Basecamp RCB again in the future.
