Reviews
"Interesting stop for a quick bit of history if you're in the area. Quiet and peaceful. Could have an amazing view of the river. Has a couple of parking spaces. Be very careful and watch your step on the walking path to the site. It has deep ruts and I nearly broke ankle by not paying attention! Hopefully they fix that soon."
"This is a nice small historic cemetery. The information board is very weathered and due for replacement. It is very much up against someone's private home residence you kind of walk into there back yard."
"Very quite and peaceful grave site of Governor Dunklin and his family. There is handicap parking and a nice walk way that winds down the hill to the site. There are two stone benches to rest at and take in the scenery. Next to the grave site is a spectacular view of the Mississippi River and the state of Illinois. Sometimes you can catch a barge going up the river which is neat to see."
"Only a couple parking spots. There is a wheel chair path down the the grave site. Nice over look over the Mississippi river. It's a nice drive back to it also."
"Small but beautiful cemetery overlooking the Mississippi River. The final resting place for one of Missouri's fine governors."
