Longview offers three types of sites, FHU, electric only (some 30 only, some 50), and basic, and we stayed in a 50 amp electric-only pull-through site. There are water spigots throughout the park with a 15 minute limit for fill-ups if needed. The campground offers some privacy, with more in some campsites and less in others within a very pretty wooded setting. Entrance is gated (guests are provided with a gate code), and the park hosts were very nice and helpful. It's also easy to access KC, and the surrounding area including just about every service and restaurant you could want or need. While there were plenty of campers, the park stayed relatively quiet, and though there was some trash around when we arrived, we never noticed it again. The dump station is also easily accessed on the way out of the park.
The main (and maybe only) drawback is that the sites are mostly very un-level and while many are long enough for a big rig, they then require a lot of adjusting and leveling. Our pull-through site required backing in because the U was more like a V (fine for a smaller rig), and we had to use all of our leveling blocks plus rocks under the stairs. The FHU section looked a little better, and if we were to stay here again, we would likely choose one of the back-in sites instead since the the pull-throughs were all too sharply angled.
T-Mobile was a little erratic, but fine overall.

Campsites are oriented around large open grassy areas and are widely spaced. Some sites have mature trees for shade, others have none. Both pull-through and back-in spaces available, with level gravel pads and basic, electric only or full hook-ups. We camped mid-week in early September and there were few other campers, so it was very quiet, although there was a low hum of highway noise to the south. Thirty minutes from downtown KSMO - very convenient for sightseeing and great BBQ. A new development of shops/gas station is conveniently close to the park entrance.

I was bummed we only stayed here for 2 nights. I would have enjoyed more time here. A lot of the sites backed up to large areas of grass which would be really nice to spend the afternoon. It was close to KCMO which was our purpose for staying there.
The grounds seemed remote, but there is a road running alongside the trees near the West Loop - so we could hear that a little - but pretty quiet overall. Nice camp-hosts and clean facilities. We didn't use the showers, but they looked to be a bit above your standard campground showers. A good variety of pull through sites and back-in with a lot of shade trees. Our sites and the ones around us all looked to be level enough.

Park hosts were very helpful and attentive. Security gate entering campground limited access by non-campers. Nice feature in a popular day use park. Several nearby boat ramps and bike paths.
