Wellington Lake West Rec Area

Wellington Lake sits flat in southern Kansas, with no hills in sight. The municipal campground on the west side of the lake has electric hookups, drinking water, showers, and a dump station, making it a workable base for tent campers and RV users alike. A roped-off swimming beach keeps swimmers separated from boat traffic, and a playground sits nearby. Wellington Lake East Rec Area is less than half a mile away. Reservations are available, and pets are welcome.

Pictures posted are not of Wellington lake in Kansad

As much as I’d LOVE the pictures posted here to be Wellington Lake in Kansas is is not. There are no mountains not even any hills really. I’ve lived in Wellington all my life and have visited, swam, and camped there. 

The beach area for swimming is nice and has a playground. It’s roped off so swimmers are safe from boaters. Camping options for tents or camper trailers.
