Best RV Parks & Resorts near Edwardsville, KS

Several RV parks are located within driving distance of Edwardsville, Kansas, offering various amenities for motorhome travelers. Walnut Grove RV Park in Merriam features 50 gravel sites with full hookups including 50/30-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections. Sites accommodate big rigs but are closely spaced with limited privacy. "The sites were on gravel and very close to each other. We had full hook-ups, cell service, and free wifi," noted one visitor who stayed at the park. Worlds of Fun Village in Kansas City provides concrete RV pads with 50-amp hookups and sewer connections, operating seasonally from March through October. Stadium RV Park in Independence offers full-hookup sites for RVs but has received mixed reviews regarding site leveling and spacing.

Advance reservations are strongly recommended, particularly for premium pull-through sites which provide easier access for larger motorhomes. Most RV parks in the area remain open year-round, with Walnut Grove and Deer Creek Valley RV Park in Topeka offering all-season accessibility. Dump stations and trash services are standard at the full-service parks, though amenities vary considerably between locations. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with designated dog areas available at some parks. Cell service and WiFi quality fluctuate, with visitors reporting better connectivity at parks closer to metropolitan areas. Proximity to major highways makes these RV parks convenient stopover points for travelers, though road noise can be noticeable at locations adjacent to interstates or busy streets.

    Rutlader Outpost RV Park

    Great Campground

    We’re from Kansas City and there are very few options when it comes to Campgrounds. This is by far our favorite and their rates are very reasonable. We enjoyed our stay, staff was very friendly and the park was clean and easy to get in and out of. You’re also very close to Hillsdale State Park, but this location has a tornado shelter 🤣

    The park: great store, laid out well, gravel sites. Some are back in but most are pull through. Full hook ups- power/water/sewer.

    72 Sites: 30' wide, 60' long and level 24 Sites are pull thru All have 30 & 50 amp service

    You are within 40 minutes of southern Overland Park, and within approximately an hour (depending on traffic) to Kansas City.

    Amenities: Laundry Storm Shelter Showers Meeting room available for RV Rallies (Must Schedule) Fishing Lake

    Cellular: service was good, able to stream video, work, Facebook, etc.

    Rates as of April 2020 (from their site):

    -DAY RATE: $45.00 -CLUB RATE: $40.00 (Good Sam's, FMCA, AAA, Military) -WEEKLY: $215 -MONTHLY: $575 Back In $700 Pull Through (if not paid by due date, Day Rate will apply.)​

    Lake Shawnee County Campground

    Perfect little county campground

    Beautiful gated lakeside campground in SE Topeka that can accommodate almost any camper type. There are pull through and back in sites. All are gravel with a picnic table and fire ring. The sites are fairly level and easy to navigate. There is a playground, picnic pavilion, swim beach, laundry, fishing dock and 2 clean bathhouses. The sites are close together, but most will have a view of the lake. There are 50 and 30 amp hook ups and water hook ups. No sewer, but there is a dump station on-site. Rental bikes are near the office to ride around the trail that goes 7 miles around the lake. The whole lake area has a lot going on: softball and baseball fields, multiple playgrounds, disc golf, golf course, tennis courts, paddle boat/canoe rentals, amazing gardens, etc. Several restaurants including fast food, pizza, donut shop, Chinese, 2 bar and grills, and Mexican food are very nearby. There is also a Dollar General, urgent care clinic, liquor store and 2 gas stations. It’s a great location just a few miles south of 1-70. Normally sites are $20/night, $18/night for seniors. Highly recommend!

    Walnut Grove RV Park

    Close to downtown Merriam and KC

    My husbands job took us to Merriam Kansas and we needed a place to stay, we made reservations at Walnut Grove. We were surprised to find it in the middle of a neighborhood. The staff were very nice and helped us into our site. The sites were on gravel and very close to each other. Walnut Grove was both short and long term campers. There were no tent sites. We had full hook-ups, cell service, and free wifi. We had a picnic table and fire ring and could purchase firewood at their store.

    During our stay I was awakened to a startling noise and couldn't figure it out until I went outside and saw the walnuts falling onto our camper. By the time we left, everything was covered(stained) tarnish brown. The park is in a walnut grove hence its name. They had a dog run which was not fenced but provided some grass for the pups. They had a laundry mat and clean showers with good water pressure. There also was a strange noise coming from the trees and when I asked the office what it was they thought it was locusts. I knew that was not their noise so I had to find what it was. After searching, I found that it was tree frogs 🐸 and it was their call. So if you are there in September listen and you will hear them, they love the walnut trees.

    Sunflower Campground — Hillsdale State Park

    Very Clean and Very Relaxing

    The Park: We love this park, it’s massive, and really pretty. They have so much to do (listed below). Sunflower Loop is our favorite and has full hookups. There are more primitive loops as well. It is ADA accessible. There was not a tornado shelter as of 2018. This is one thing that should be mandatory given its proximity and being further away from potential shelter. Excellent camping on the lake. Lots of water activities available.

    Sites: level, clear, easily accessible. Sunflower loop is widely spaced and plenty of room for larger RVs.

    Cellular: decent cellular signal.

    Amenities: Amphitheater Bath House Bicycling Boat Ramp Boating Canoeing Kayaking Campground Host Camping, Equestrian Camping, Improved Site Camping, Primitive Church Comfort Station Dock, Boat Dump Station, Camper Dump Station, Marina Fire Rings Fishing, Park Lake Fuel, Boats Golf Grills Gun Range Hiking Hiking Trail Horseback Riding Hunting Information Booth Jet Skiing Laundry Marina Mountain/Trail Bicycling Park Lake Parking Picnic Area Picnic Shelter Picnic Tables Playground Rentals, Boat, Motorized Rentals, Jet Skis Reservoir Restrooms Shelters Showers Skiing - Water Swimming, Park Lake Telephone Toilet, Pit/Vault Trails, Bicycle Trails, Equestrian Trails, Hiking/Walking, Easy Trails, Mountain Bike Walking Water Access, Park Lake Water Skiing

    Peculiar Park Place

    Shakedown with old friends

    This is the campground to be at if you are looking for a staging area just south of the KC area with full hookups, level sites and amazing owners.

    Recently downsized our rig and selected this location for the initial shakedown. Had an easy to access pull through site that had 50/30 amp access, water and sewer. Nice landscaping, plenty of place to walk.

    Accepts cask or check for payments, propane sold on site. Short drive from Flying J and grocery store
