It was beautiful at sunset, very nice campground with good hot showers.
GuideLast minute reservation easily accommodated. Beautiful and super clean. Amazing bathhouse and coffee house. Cabins also available for rent. One of the nicest rv parks we’ve stayed in.
TravelerBEAUTIFUL views!!! Very windy but worth it for water front. We stayed in a loop alone that could have had 3 other sites, next to beach access. Bathrooms were a bit of a walk but again, worth it!!
Thought I had seen a mirage once we pulled into the park after miles of Kansas greens and browns.
Self reg station (electronic) at the park as well as reserve early online.
ScoutA nice layout, clean site and bathrooms. The trees are young but the over all camp is great.
TravelerWe've camped at Wilson State Park three times now on eastbound road trips and I can't recommend it enough! There are sheltered sites on green lawns where tent campers can spend a quiet night. Trees provide shelter from wind and thunder storms. Depending on where you camp you can walk to swim in the reservoir. And the Switchgrass MTB is surprisingly fun! Just be careful to let it dry out before you ride since that wet sand can wreak havok on your drive train. I've only camped at Wilson on weekdays and it's never crowded.

Our young family of six stayed for 2 nights during our cross country drive and wow what a welcome respite it was from driving! My kiddos LOVED the pool. We spent the entire day lounging and enjoying the basketball court, corn hole, park, ice cream social, and of course, the swimming pool! We stayed in site 4 which was super accessible, complete with picnic table and full hookups. I was really happy with the cleanliness of the park in general including the laundry facility, bathrooms, grounds, and shop. The laundry facility was very well priced and very efficient. The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming and obviously take pride in this campground. We would be happy to stay again if we are ever in the area again! Highly recommend!

Stopped by in Nov at 11pm. Self pay. Power hookup and dump site. Great spot.
Guide
Nice place to stop over for a good night’s sleep. Dirt road was troublesome; lots of things shifted in the RV! Self pay station was available for those wishing to stay who didn’t book before 12 noon day of. Lots of open spaces beyond what was available to thru the website. Please cancel unused reservations, as a service to others! Very close to also visit Little Jerusalem and Monument Rocks.
TravelerGreat concrete pads with easy in and out. water and 20,30,50 electric. Solid restroom facilities as well as recreational activities. Not a lot of groceries or gas nearby plan accordingly.
GuideGreat campsite. Lots of privacy and space between sites. Bathrooms good and Verizon service ok.
Traveler
Great stop for a night or more! Nice campsite on lake’s edge, level, concrete pad and spacious, staggered sites. Would give it a 5 with full hook-up (elec. & water here).
TravelerA nice little campground near Hays! The site was well kept and was an easy pull through, full hookup. Nice quiet campground.
ScoutI am rating this as an overnight stop. Very easy online reservation and communication. We pulled in late and a map was on office door with clear instructions to our site. Campground was easy to navigate and very clean. Level spots, perfect for an easy pull in and set up for the night.
Traveler5 stars for the brand new facilities, man-made duck pond, and “Flicks by the Crick.”
1 star a nasty bathroom with a shower holding a hair clog that look like something Chewbacca hacked up and for spaces packed so close together I can see my neighbor’s nose hair.
It feels like the owners want to squeeze every ounce of revenue out of this few acre spot, making sacrifices along the way.
It was, however, worth my $42/nt charge since it’s close to the highway and saved me from boondocking.
Guide
Lake is beautiful and nice to swim in. Our particular site was not level and took every leveler we had to get it level. Anything larger than 20ft should not use Grama site 028. Variety of Bike trails that were great for beginning up to seasoned rider.
GuideNew and clean. Very nice place to stay. Some sites don’t have sewer hookups although they have an on-site dump station.
GuideThis is a very nice campground. Very new, clean and easy to stay at. Not all sites have full hookup although they have an easy access dump station in the park.
TravelerPlenty of primitive spots available on a Saturday in July - it was hot though. Looked like the electric sites were pretty full. Sites right on the lake and the bath house is nearby for many of the sites.
GuideWhile there isn't much to do in the area, it is a great spot to stop for a day. Safe, well kept, and lots of amenities. Basketball, cornhole, swimming pool, playground, FREE COFFEE, clean shower facilities, and a beautiful view of the rolling plains.
The owners go above and beyond to make sure their guests are taken care of. We were tent camping and as we were driving in, they sent us a message to warn us about rain. During the storm the internet went out, so the next morning they gave everyone a free bag of ice.
TravelerSuper clean!!!
GuideBig Bluestem Campground Site 78! Prime spot with large shade tree to block western sun. 20’ from water’s edge with path to drop kayaks in, swim or even sit lawn chairs into the water to cool off. Noted as largest saltwater and clearest lake in Kansas. 30/50A/120V and water hookups. Concrete pad. Clean showers a few hundred yards away. Trash bin in middle of loop. Marina two loops away; about 4 minute drive. Outstanding rock formations, reminds me of Utah. Water levels effect access to some formations. Great time, great weather, we’ll be back soon! T-Mobile service 1-4 bars. Streamed HotSpot for ROKU without issues.
GuideStayed two nights at Wilson State Park on our way from Georgia to Alaska. We were so pleasantly surprised! Several campsites to choose from, each offering different (but equally beautiful) views & amenities. Tons of hiking and biking trails. We camped in November so some of the bathrooms were closed but there was one open bathroom facility that was drivable with hot showers. Only con was the showers were push button style so somewhat of an inconvenience. We arrived late, which was not a problem. There were no gates and we were able to check-in and pay the following day. All in all, a fantastic experience and we would definitely return!
GuideWho knew Kansas was so beautiful?! We sure didn’t. Loving out lake side campsite on Wilson Lake. There are multiple different campgrounds within the park. We chose Big Bluestem bc it has water and electric (not all do) and was right on the water. Be warned that signs directing you around are not all that easy to see or follow. I used the map on my phone mainly to direct us. We originally chose site 78 but upon arrival realized it would be too difficult to get our 40ft MH into. Ended up staying in site 80.
ScoutBathroom very clean and quiet at night.
TravelerAbout average as KOAs go. Laundry was cheap per load, pool nicely maintained, showers clean. All amenities, dump on-site. Small playground. No fire rings and sites close together. Table at each site, some sites with trees. Right off the hwy. Great place for staying as you pass through.
