    High Plains Camping

    Great pizza

    High Plains Camping is under new ownership and management since 2022. The managers, Jana and Andy are very wonderful, very helpful. They have a lot of plans to reconstruct the facility. It’s tired, but clean. They do have a cafe “Grub n Chug”. Great pizza and beer at a reasonable price. The camp sites in section 300/400 are spacious with full utilities.

    Kansas Kountry Inn & RV Park

    A place to park with electric and water.

    This was a convenient place to stop for the day. Has full hookups. Keep in mind it is right by a highway, so there was a lot of traffic sounds.

    The Thresher Show Camp

    Great place!

    The showers were great but the best thing was a personal tour from Rod! We went a week before the yearly event that we're excited to go check out next year.

    St. Francis City Campground

    Great free camping with showers, bathrooms and near restaurants and stores

    This is a great free camping site in western Kansas right off 36 Hwy. Free for tents and RV’s if you boondock. $25 fee to hookup to electric and water. Shower house and bathrooms were a little run down, but worked just the same as a 5 star hotel. Pizza Hut, Dollar General and gas stations within walking distance. Our stay was quiet and we were the only campers. Right behind the city public works facility so there was some noise and traffic there but not at all annoying.

    St. Francis City Campground

    Safe camping in established space

    I loved this spot. It was a Hail Mary when road tripping without much else around! There are men’s and women’s showers/bathrooms, but there were dead crickets everywhere and didn’t seem to be well maintained (no shower curtain either). That said, it was a hot, free shower after days on the road, so I thought it was great. Lots of flat land and several spots. Very very windy at night.

    High Plains Camping

    Easy access, kind, and clean.

    I stopped for just one night on my way to Colorado in a baby 13 foot travel trailer and they were kind enough to put me back in the corner so I could watch the beautiful Kansas Sunset, and away from the big rigs. Big clean, hot and free showers with good water pressure.

    Kansas Kountry Inn & RV Park

    Small yet convenient

    Very friendly staff. Convenient for an overnight stay. Affordable. Thankful for electricity as it was cold. Watch for the thorny burrs that get all over shoes especially if you have a dog…. Would be very painful for them. RVs very close to one another. Never accessed the bathhouse yet one was available with a combo. Good WiFi

    Atwood Lions Club Park

    Nice with FHU

    Gravel, level sites. Short walk to the convenience store to get key to unlock the utilities box and pay for the site (check or cash only). Beautiful lake with walking path just over a mile around.

    Apache Campground — Historic Lake Scott State Park

    Windy

    38 Mph wind gusts all night long made for some miserable camping. Not sure if that’s normal around here or not. 305 & 304 are probably the only primitive campgrounds I would stay at, all the others are too close to the road and eachother with no privacy. A permit is required, mine cost $12.75, they can be purchased from the kiosk at the park entrance. Excellent phone service with Verizon.

    Sheridan State Fishing Lake

    Oasis in the farm lands

    What a gorgeous spot on our journey from CO to MN! Free sites around the lake and ok fishing. The game warden stopped by and said that the fish (carp, catfish, crappie, bluegill & shad) are all stunted. Too many fish for a small lake. Overnight we heard coyotes, crickets & cows.

    Goodland KOA

    Loved this little KOA

    This is a sweet little campground. Just off the interstate, but far enough away that you don’t hear the traffic. Staff is super nice and helpful. Wifi is decent. Dog park is generous size. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. There is an outside sink for use if you are tent camping. Nice playground for the kiddos and pool. It’s a small KOA but I highly recommend it.

    Good Stopover

    Nice KOA.. refurbing the bathrooms but have a Stahla rental trailer shower /bathroom. We don’t usually use campground bathrooms so it doesn’t matter..Gravel spaces, friendly staff, not cramped. Playground for the kids! Our space had a “personal” very small fenced 6’x8’ dog area

    Nice clean rv park

    Friendly folks running the show, very good size sites for long rigs and all hookups work great. Only downside is the goats head burs are present. Don’t walk around barefoot you’ll regret it.

    Circle Drive - Scott State Park

    Great little spot but few toilets open

    Unexpectedly pretty and quiet little lake. We got a good spot but some are close together and not private. Worst problem is only one outhouse a bit of a walk away for ALL THESE FAMILIES HERE ON EASTER SUNDAY. They definitely should have had the toilets opened ...lots of kids and where are they hitting the head?

    Goodland KOA

    It's a KOA! Great overnight stop going through western Kansas

    Great place to stay overnight or longer if Goodland is your final destination.  It's a KOA so everything is up to par with the brand.  Offices and facilities are maintained and clean.  Pool was a nice welcome for the kids and I. Playground had lots of kids playing at it and everyone was happy.  Definitely would stay here again.

    Free and clean, but a little buggy

    I had a majestic night here. Was just me and one other person. Campsites right up by the lake, and I was able to forage enough dry wood for a big ol' fire.

    Nice spot, we went Labor Day weekend and there was still availability. Breezy and sunny even in late summer. Bathrooms were clean. Had picnic tables.

    Bathrooms not horrid but could be better

    Nice water & elec hook ups. Grassy sites. Very little shade. Dropbox for fees but no fees posted.; Internet said $25/ night so that’s what we paid. Rest rooms not overly clean. Two showers and two toilets on each side (men’s & women’s). No doors/ curtains on toilets or showers.

    Not sure how you are suppose to access the electric boxes all had a lock tag on them. I was able to check which boxes were hot and found two boxes hot but was only able to use the 110 plug. Did not find any potable water all faucets were marked as non potable. There is a sign that says to call city hall on Wednesday between 8 and 5 to active electric. Today it is 101 degrees.

    $39 and By the highway but... very clean

    It's very expensive per night here and u will be right by the highway I'm sleeping out of the back of my rodeo so the noise is very annoying but I'm sure in an rv it wouldn't be bad at all I do have to say it is very clean here right by a gas station and a Walmart so a one night stay for a refuel and restock it is a good stay

    1 night Stopover

    Campground is convenient off of I 70 on the way to Colorado. Staff were helpful and gave us a cable cord to borrow. Sites are on top of each other, wish we didn't like. Bathrooms were very clean. Full hook ups were nice, this was our first visit to a KOA. The pool was a welcome site on a very hot July day.

    Older KOA-Big Rig Spots

    This is an old KOA with new concrete patios. You have to swing wide to pull in and there is a tight straight spot where you stop to register but doable for my Motorhome. Basic RV park with full hookups with level gravel lots. Pull through spot # 61 accommodated my motorhome and tow, which is 67 feet long. Checking was quick and the attendant was very nice.

    Historic Lake Scott State Park

    Clean your bathrooms!

       It seemed like we drove a long time to get here. This was a stop on our way back home from Colorado. It was around 40 some miles from the Interstate& all we saw were fields upon fields & no trees. The husband was grumbling when we turned off on the road to Lake Scott. I felt a lot better when we took the road down into the valley & saw the lake!

        This is not our first Kansas state park. We've been to Kanopolis & Mushroom Rocks. Lake Scott is supposed to be Kansas' most historic park. We stayed for 2 nights in the Circle campground. Water & electric. There's a few "seasonal" sites that offer sewer. 

    As before, there was no one at the gatehouse to check in, so we found our site ourselves. The camp host was never around, but there were a few people in golf carts who waved at us.

       The site had some trees & a view of the lake. The site was clean 

        It was a short walk to the bathroom by the lake. There are flush toilets & showers & I've got to say, they are the filthiest I've seen camping. Apparently it's no ones job to take out the garbage or clean the sinks or toilets. 

        The beach was fairly crowded both afternoons we were there. I have no idea why anyone would want to swim in that disgusting water, but I guess that's all that's around. My husband says he saw fish jumping, so there is that to do.

        This is a pretty scenic park. The rocks & the lake, ect. There was never anyone at the beach store & I found out it's only open on weekends. There was someone at the park office& I got some area info. It was closed by afternoon though. The Steele Home Museum was closed both days we were there.
