Fredonia Bay Campground — Fall River State Park

4 ReviewsAdd Review

Hiking enthusiasts and anglers will find solid access to Fall River State Park's trail system and lake fishing from this 12-site campground on Fall River's shoreline. The gravel sites accommodate both RVs and tents, with full hookups available for $23 per night and basic sites starting at $12. Some sites sit directly on the lake, while others cluster closer together under shade trees.

The campground reopened after flood damage, and cleanup efforts continue in surrounding areas. Lisa C. notes that "shower houses are clean and have hot water" following the restoration work. Sites remain level for easy setup, and the park's bike-friendly roads connect to hiking trails that wind through the surrounding woodland.

Campers report the area stays relatively quiet, though periodic flooding affects access during heavy rain periods. The playground and swimming areas draw families during warmer months. Full hookup sites handle big rigs without issue, and pets are welcome throughout the campground.

For those wanting different amenities within the same park system, Casner Creek Campground — Fall River State Park offers an alternative setting just northwest of Fredonia Bay.

Very nice easy access from 400

Very nice park. We just stayed overnight on our journey. It was very level, nice places to ride a bike. Nice playground and some spots right on lake. Sites are gravel and some are a bit close, would definitely stay again.

Family friendly. Easy water access. Close to 400 Hwy. Good hiking trails.

After being closed for over two months the campsites are back open for use.  There is still a lot of clean up being done, but should not stop anyone from camping.  Shower houses are clean and have hot water.  There are several hiking trails.  Fall will be a great time to camp at Fall River State Park.

Hidden gem!

This is one of our favorite lakes in Kansas we go to! We like setting up camp at both the state park & Corps of Engineers! Lots of shady spots & room. The people at Three Corners Restaurant, Bait Shop, & Store are very nice & sociable. The bait side of the store can give a current fishing report & carry necessary supplies along with a good selection of bait/tackle.
