Guide
These spaces are blocked from the wind and feel more private than the Lakeview campground, but you are a bit further from bathrooms/dumpsters. Primitive spaces had a picnic table and fire ring, and you’ll likely find a little “cove” all to yourself. Most people seemed to be RV camping in the sites that provided hookups and water.
Traveler
We stayed here in June for two nights on a road trip north. Front section of spots 1-43 are close to the road and it is very noisy. They made these front sites big rig friendly by using the site next to yours for unhooking your tow or towed vehicle. We were put in the front section due to a large work crew taking up a lot of spaces in the back section. We could not open our awning in the first assigned spot, so the staff was accommodating and moved us over one spot. Come to find out, it is very windy here, so awnings are not used very often. We would highly recommend getting a site in the back. Sites 50-80. Less noise, long pull throughs and nice wide grass areas. The wifi was not very strong or was too busy, so we used our own hot spot. This is conveniently located close to Dodge City attractions.
TravelerI stayed for one night on the site with the covered shelter, and it worked out wonderfully because we had a huge lightning storm in the middle of the night. This is a beautiful and well maintained campground. This particular site would be difficult for family with young children because it is far away from the pit toilet.

Great camp ground with clean and maintained amenities. Having a lake this close is a treat even if it’s not a big lake. I don’t fish but see and hear fish jumping all the time. It’s new so the trees haven’t grown to provide a ton of shade yet but great value for the price and location.
Guide
Sites are a little close to each other. Water and electric sites. Sites are not marked real clearly. Water not on at dump station.

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.
ScoutVery clean bathrooms and showers. Some noise from road and train close by. Overall quite comfortable. Sites good size. Park next to rig.
ScoutThey have no idea what the Dyrt is or the 40% discount for pro members

We just stayed there over night and did the late check in but it worked great for us. Just needed water and electricity but they have all the options.
TravelerUnexpectedly 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?
GuideAll hookups function properly, gravel sites fairly level and easy to access. Laundry and showers available, have not used them yet. Bad time of year for exploring the area. Still very arid and dry this spring. No complaints about the park.
Scout$60 a night
ScoutCampground was a little difficult to find the entrance to, but once we found it we had no problems with the rest of our stay. Campground was quite and fully paved. The kids enjoyed riding their bikes and scooters while we relaxed at our spot. Plenty of room to pull in and out of spots. The common buildings were all new and very well kept. Highly recommend if you are in Dodge City.
Legend
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.
ScoutThis was a great VERY quiet get away for me and the wife. Not a lot going on in this area during the winter time but this was the perfect place for us to unplug. Nestled just outside Garner State Park has some great scenery. The dog park and surrounding area could have used some more grass in and around it to help keep the mud out of the RV but the dogs enjoyed themselves. All in all a great place for a get away if you're looking to unplug.
GuideStunning site! I loved being right near the water and the bathrooms were very clean and well kept.
I camped here in the winter so it got down to 5°, so make sure to prepare for that.
ScoutOnly stayed 1 night.
Nice, friendly and helpful check in.
Easy hookups, nice sites.
Liked the overall vibe.
GuideKeep in mind, we haven’t found any five-star campgrounds in Kansas, and a shortage of campgrounds in general, so we were glad to find this perfectly adequate, safe space with level gravel pads close together. Full hookups. The best thing about it is its proximity to Dodge City.
ScoutI had a cozy spot with good shade for a couple of days. Bathrooms/showers were very clean. Friendly staff, good sense of humor and nice painting added to homeyness
GuideStandard Campground in middle nowhere Kansas. We were passing through to Colorado and were also planning to see the nearby Monument Rocks and New Jerusalem Badlands SP. We managed to be the only one in this campground. While this campground had a sign explaining their color coded services, there were no actual services. There were no formal fire rings on grills, but most sites had remains of improvised fire rings. There is a group camping site with large fire ring, grill, volleyball court etc. This campground had two available bathrooms. One is a pit toilet with no lights, so bring a flashlight. The second had sinks, flush toilets, and showers, but had no main bathroom doors and completely open to the elements at the 8 foot height.
GuideThis place has good glean facilities. The people here are really friendly. The park is in a great location close to Dodge City. I would stay here again.
TravelerVery clean laundromat and bathhouses! The park is close to downtown Dodge City. The location is very convenient. Owners and staff are helpful and friendly. Would stay here again.
ScoutI could toss a rock and hit passing trains. Will not return to this KOA
RangerWe enjoyed our 2 night stay in the Circle Loop. Only negative was no fire pits in this loop, but all the tent sites had fire pits. Strange.
Lots of positives, mainly the scenery and peace & quiet. Amazing sites nearby...Jerusalem Badlands & Monument Rocks about 15-20 minutes north off of US 83.
Scott City, 15 miles south has a great grocery store and eateries,gas stations.
ScoutGreat 1 nite camp, has laundromat, pool, and small store.
TravelerThe Circle Drive Camp Host was very nice and friendly! Campsights were gravel but fairly level - all seemed good. Previous reviews were not kidding about doubting your GPS! We were driving through flat terrain of large corn fields until quickly dropping down into the canyon very close to the state park. This is a pleasant place to rest a while. T-Mobile LTE coverage was spotty with only 1 bar (occasionally 2 bars). We will be back. Also a great stopover to/from Colorado.
ScoutThe place itself is just ok. It’s just a parking lot of RVs. No trees, no pool, nothing on site. It is close to a nice park and a water park if you want to add more to your bill. The showers suck. Although clean, you can not adjust the hot or cold and it turns off every minute. The people were nice but not very informative.
