Watkins Woolen Mill State Park

Bundle up, buttercup—it’s time once again for that sacred winter ritual where Volkswagen fanatics migrate to Watkins Mill and willingly freeze their tailpipes off.

If you’ve never camped in single-digit temps with a bunch of laughing, shivering VW weirdos… brother, sister, you haven’t lived.

? Who Can Come?
Absolutely anyone tough enough—or silly enough—to camp in the cold.
Bus? Beetle? Thing? You got a Jeep? Chevy? Minivan? No one cares.
If you enjoy VWs and poor life choices, you’re in.

?️ What To Expect:
• No reservations. No spreadsheets. No drama.
• Pay the Park Ranger on arrival ($23/night – two vehicles per spot).
• Electric sites! Yes, your tiny heater can battle the icy wrath of Missouri.
• Bring firewood, bring food, and bring enough blankets to outfit a small fort.
• Marvel as a lonely VW engine case meets its fiery destiny.
• Jeff Adams will absolutely show up with some bizarre contraption none of us asked for.
• Howard’s biscuits &amp; gravy… legendary enough to thaw your soul.
• Saturday walk around the lake (optional but heavily peer-pressured).
• Dogs welcome, because their judgment is better than ours anyway.
• Tall tales, late nights, frozen noses, warm hearts.
• Zero regrets. (…Okay maybe like one or two.)
