    Rocky Pond City Park Campground

    Nice park with lots of amenities

    This is a self service park and it’s $20 for full hook ups although some of the spaces only had 50 amp service instead of 50 and 30. If you stay in the upper level, you might want to make sure you have a long sewer hose as it is quite a ways behind the trailer. Park does have bathrooms and a shower that were so so. There also is a disc golf available at the back of the lake. Nice walk around the lake. Sidenote there’s a nice nine hole golf course here that was fairly inexpensive and highly recommend los Primos Mexican restaurant for dinner.

    Nice little city park

    Easy access from highway. Most sites are 30 amp back in with 4 30/50 posts marked with pull thru. Showers and restrooms at swimming pool a block north. Dump at entrance of campsite. Water hydrants but not at all sites. Would stay again for quite overnight stay. August 10, 2024 $15 night Dropbox

    Excellent spot

    Quite park with lots of space. There are about 20 free Rv spots with electric and water hookups and several site with electricity for tents. They have nice clean bathrooms, a large playground in the shade, and a fishing pond

    Nice Park

    I'm not a glamper, thus I don't expect much, but Lone Star is a really nice place to take a family.  A cowboy would like it too.  Good facilities, swimming, and a nice lake to fish.

    For The Outdoorsman

    Only two small sites and one appears to hamve sewage. There's a bathroom available. Best suited for an outdoorsman that's hunting or fishing.

    Great location

    Camped here over the Fourth of July weekend and was surprised that it was only about 3/4 of the way full. Quite a bit of day use Traffic with people kayaking and fishing, but remained peaceful and relaxing place.

    Great over night stop

    Small but not much use FREE. Stopped here on Dyrt review recommendation and was not disappointed. Labor Day weekend an we were the only one here. Only 2, 30 foot sites and 30 amp electric plus water. Did I mention Free? Pavilion with picknic tables. We would stay here again. A couple of large cottonwood trees shade the site. We didn’t unhook and the site was level.

    Nice clean and quiet place

    We stayed 3 nights, it was a very nice place, they have water and electric at the site, water was not on as we camped in March. There is a sump station behind the High School. Pads are Concrete, I believe they have 20 pads, and an area for tent campers with electricity as well, small play ground too.

    Pretty Good!

    Broadcasting this now because I was not aware when I showed up: there are only two designated tent sites in this entire campground. However, both these sites are clean, beautiful, and located near the trail that takes you to the (honestly very well-presented) adjacent historical park. Out of the two Nebraska state recreation areas I stayed at on my trip through the state, this one is definitely my favorite. I would give it 3.5 stars, but the coin-operated showers knock it down to a 3.

    Nice park setting in town

    Nice spot to camp without spending a fortune. Their 50 amp plug ins were by the road but we didn’t get much if any traffic noise. We got to watch the parade from where we were parked. Will definitely be back!

    Cedar Point Campground — Lovewell State Park

    Great scenery

    The scenery was beautiful. They also had a nice playground, plenty areas to fish and explore. Only complaint was the spacing of the water spigot and absolutely no cell service for the area. Not that you need it but in case of an emergency or even to check the weather you won’t be able to if you have Verizon.

    Quiet, no frills city park

    Fairly quiet park off the highway. Not much to do around here but that's OK with us. Very small Midwest town. Two gas stations no grocery stores. 4 sites with 50 amp electric, water and sewer. $15 per day

    Better!

    I grew up here, stopped going when it became a party haven filled with drama, recently gave it a second chance and could not be happier I did so. It has really been cleaned up in all aspects. I WILL RETURN 🙂

    Well maintained

    This is more of a city park vibe rather than a camping spot but it's well maintained with plenty of amenities for staying the night on our way through

    Buckley Creek

    Perfect for night or even two

    If you’re ever near Stromsberg NE, this is THE town to stop in. Campground is in and near Buckley park. We stayed in the older campground, which had electric, shade trees, a bathroom ( not a pit toilet) with a sink and soap. But upon walking the area we found the newer, As of late last year, campground. That one even has a water hook up for every site. Both grounds have a host and are lit at night for security, but look up the town, rated A + in the US for crime rate. Walking the town it feels as if I walked back in time. Pay phones, bikes in their stands left unlocked, everyone says hi. I can’t say enough about this town. But bring cash if you want to purchase almost anything, as many of businesses do not accept CC or debit cards. It all works on the donation system, so give what you can.

    Mosquito Heaven

    My husband and I just needed somewhere to stay overnight while driving through Kansas.  This fit the bill because it was along our route.  It is VERY primitive and used for hunting according to the website.  Our issue was that there were a million mosquitos because the water flowing right beside it.  We couldn't even walk from the car to our teardrop camper without getting swarmed.  Otherwise the area would not have been horrible just to stay overnight.  We did not make it to the bathroom across the road, but it looked like a normal vault toilet.

    Room to roam

    Excellent lake and open country! Big hunting fields to run dogs in. Good WiFi, cell service and water hooks ups in March! Looks like there is year around camping. They have prime site with fire pits, grills, concrete pad, tie down chains for wind. Bath house was being updated so no idea the condition. Pheasant can be heard in morning and evening. Lake is huge! Lots of different camping options around. Playground for kids at Kanza campground

    Awesome free road side campground!

    This roadside veteran style park is perfect for setting up camp and resting your eyes. We only stayed here for about 8 total hours but it was worth every penny. This campground is FREE and offers electricity and water hook-ups. If you have kids there is a playground and ample room for your human or fir babies to run free and burn energy. If you pass through this is a must go to stop(even just to stretch the legs! We would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a safe and free campground!

    Stop Over on the Christmas Roadtrip

    Rating a three for two reasons: 1) the potable water is shut off (dump station open), and 2) the RV camp Spots are directly next to each other (No room for privacy feom the neighbors)

    However, we always prefer to camp by some sort of body of water, so check that box. AND they have a great Christmas light show throughout the park around the lake/campground for the locals that my daughter enjoyed!

    Clean, quiet campground

    Favorite place to stay for early season bow hunting. Camp hosts are always kind and do a great job. Site #20 has best cell service.

    No water after Nov. 1 and have to fill from well pump.

    Airport campground

    We got here yesterday. It has electric 50/30 and water, concrete pads are level. Picnic table. Lots of shade. Clean. By donation. US 81 is close and under construction so there is some highway noise but in noticable when in the trailer. 14 spots, 10 were full. Town is very historic and friendly.
