Just a mile away all you can see is the flat farmlands of KS and then the road dips down into the canyon and you're in another world with a spring-fed lake and shady cottonwood trees," noted one reviewer.
Lake Scott State Park features multiple hiking trails, kayaking opportunities, and swimming areas that complement the glamping experience. The small spring-fed lake allows for fishing, paddling, and water recreation with kayak and canoe rentals available on weekends. Nearby attractions include Monument Rocks just 19 miles east and Little Jerusalem Badlands State Park 19 miles west, offering unique geological formations for day trips. The campground remains relatively quiet during weekdays and becomes busier on weekends, making scheduling considerations important for visitors seeking tranquility. A recent visitor mentioned, "We spent the hot part of the days kayaking in the lake. The boat house rents kayaks, canoes, and paddleboats but only on weekends. There are lots of historic places in the park that we visited and hiking trails."
