About this business

About Dogwood Canyon Nature Park "Promote and protect the natural environment of the canyon’s wildlife and plant life." Aside from a few amenities to make Dogwood Canyon Nature Park more accessible to our guests, the rugged landscape has been left untouched and, with just a little imagination, you can travel back to a time when European settlers first entered the area or, even further, to explore the mark that Native Americans left on these Missouri hills and hollows. The first parcels of the property were acquired in 199... read more

If you like overpriced fake waterfalls, this is your place. We didn't realize it closed at 5 and was there until 6 pm wondering where the waterfalls we had previously seen went. Also pricing is misleading, we did our research and though it was $10/person but was $20- $10 for admission and $10 for hiking, expensive hike for not natural trails and we got told not to go to the caves or to hike off the path....Will not be going here again

Pretty, but expensive. I don't mind paying an admission, but to pay the exact same amount to walk the trail was ridiculous. I would pay for horseback riding, bikes, etc. But to pay to walk was too much.

I was under the impression that you could pay to walk around dogwood canyon (not pay admission and then pay again to walk). Would have paid to take the tram tour but there wasn't another one the day we were there. We didn't get to see what we thought we would get to see. And pretty much paid out the nose to just walk around a little bit. I'm not sure we will be back.

We have been there a few times and it's really nice but 22.00 per person to walk the trail on top of amount we were already paying to stay at Big Cedar is ridiculously expensive! Cost 44.00 for both of us and would have cost 70.00 had we road their bicycles! On top of all that, we paid 14.00 per person for a bison burger that not only wasn't good but also overcooked! The food was not to park with the resort! Paying 10.00 pet person to be able to then pay 14.00 for a bad buyer leaves a bad taste ....

We enjoyed the trails with our two labs-but, after our 5 mile trail walk we couldn't even get a drink because the patio had closed and the inside dining room told us we could not be served. We were looking forward to having a drink and watching the waterfall.

I had not been there since they built all the extra stuff so I was shocked we had pay $10 a piece just to get through the buildings and then we had to pay an additional $10 a piece just to walk. I could have cared less about the first part of it. I just wanted to walk. If I hadn't of driven so far I would have left. Sure it's beautiful but not $20 each beautiful. And they really should have separate trails for walkers and bicyclists because they will plow you over on their bikes. We ended up walking in the grass and mud to... read more

Overpriced, long walk for the same scenery over and over. $10 to enter and I can't go anywhere without paying a minimum of another $10 to walk, $15 to rent a bike which are all sold out or $50+ to take a tour, horseback or fish. Go to your local lake or park, way better for the money.
