About
City of Smithville campground at Smith's Fork Park on Smithville Lake, with 84 sites, all with electric. Tent camping is offered and priced separately, though the city doesn't publish a fixed tent inventory. The city operates the campground in a park leased from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, so it is a municipal operation rather than a federal one.
