Buffalo Bill Campground

Nice small campground next Buffalo Bill Ranch Historic Site. 50/30 amp available. Water is confusing. Water at site 6 and 20. Also water available at tent site at end of campground. Water spigot is located at the back of both sites and tent site so confused how everyone else can get water. Just plan ahead. Only one other camper was here so we parked in site 6. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Verizon was 5G.

Magical sites, beautiful scenery

Out of the way and secluded campground that’s easy to get to. Loved the scenic and natural elements. Riverside spot and fished all day. Bathrooms were outhouse style and there is no water at sites and no showers. Loved our stay.

Good for overnight stay

A bit pricey for what it offers. Not much to do except tour the Buffalo Bill house:grounds. $25 for electric plus $8 for out of state campers. Ask the camp host for change and he was not in the least helpful. Had to go to him, otherwise we would’ve not seen him. The park ranger was very friendly, gave us good information about the area and easiest way to get back on interstate.

pleasant surprise

Dare I say this park was scenic?! Nebraska is not the most exciting state to pass through on a road trip to CO, but this campsite exceeded our low expectations. The sites were nicely secluded and the campground was quiet. We didn’t plan on doing much exploring in the area, but ended up spending the better part of our day here.
