Where the Neosho River widens into John Redmond Reservoir, Hickory Creek West sits under US Army Corps of Engineers management in Burlington, Kansas. This established campground operates as part of the broader reservoir recreation system, with Hickory Creek East located just over half a mile to the northeast. The facility provides access to the western shoreline of the 9,400-acre reservoir, which was completed in 1964 for flood control and recreation. Campers can find places to camp around Lebo for additional options in the region. The Corps manages multiple recreation areas around the reservoir, making this location part of a larger network of camping and day-use facilities.
