    Sandyshore Campground — Kanopolis State Park

    Primitive!

    This campsite is truly primitive only. There were no RV’s taking up space. There were good separate spots that included a fire pit and a table. The fire pit in our spot was up next to the shoreline where we didn’t want it so we built one with a hole and rocks. It did get a bit windy but we put the Jeep behind us so that blocked some wind. This site is not near any hiking so you will have to drive to the hiking spot.

    Lucas Park

    Just gorgeous!!

    While we didn’t think we’d find anything as great as our Ft Benning stay, this one is! Different purpose - Ft Benning is for hiking, trail running. This one is for water. The sites in the 10s with water/electricity have water within close walking distance but no hookup. The water/electricity in the 40s have water hookup. the lake is gorgeous and since we are here on a Wednesday, it is super quiet. While there are others here, we are all so far apart it feels like we’ve got the lake to ourselves. #12 is flat, no leveling blocks required. It is fairly packed large gravel. Electricity has been steady/dependable. The bathhouse is a one stall/one shower deal for men and women.

    Nice Stop But Loud Next To Interstate

    This is a nice spacious campground off of 70, very easy access to the interstate. The sites are roomy and have full hookups and covered picnic areas. The staff is very friendly and helpful! The cons are that it is right next to the interstate, thus, the noise is exceptionally loud and it was difficult to get a good nights sleep. The grounds could be cleaned up as well as there are pieces of trash and dog poop in the grass. It is a nice little place to stay for the night passing through but could use some improvements.

    Good for overnight

    We called ahead to see if they had sites available for the night. Arrived just before the office closed at 7pm. Got a pull-through full-hookups site. The campsite pads are level, nice and wide, gravel like the roads, with wide grassy/dirt/gravel areas between and beautiful mature shade trees everywhere. Also several friendly cats acting as camp hosts, welcoming us at the office when we checked in, greeting us every time we stepped out of our rig, and checking out all the campsites and trees regularly. ☺️ Our site had a picnic table and a clay/Terra cotta statue of a bear eating honey, with a hole in his belly as a small fire ring. Most sites had a covered picnic table. Full hookups worked fine.

    Bathrooms were ok; dead crickets on the floor.

    We would stay here again.

    Lucas Park

    Well Maintained Campground Amidst Rolling Kansas Hills

    I took a detour off the flat highway land in search of the town of Lucas where I had heard great things about their art installations. As I drove along the land began to open up to large rolling hills and beautiful landscaping with a turnoff just off the main road marked by some very interesting stones and a pavilion. I took a moment to pull off and noticed a kiosk which told the history of the area and some very impressive information about Lucas Park. 

    I was impressed by the information and one of the signs detailing the trails which led from just outside of the campground all the way to a very special cliffside which is renowned in the state of Kansas. So naturally I had to go check it out!! 

    Pulling into camp it had rained recently and some of the gravel roads were a bit slick for my small car, but I did notice they had some road work signs where they are working to improve these areas. The rest of the property was well developed and had great improvements including full service restrooms which were placed throughout camp and nice playground equipment for the kiddos. 

    The campground is divided into two separate areas. Each with their own unique appeal. I personally liked the campground closest to the pay station as it seemed to have better overall access to amenities such as community water. There was a good mix of campsites at this location with pull through and back in options with sites ranging vastly in overall spacing.

     As a tent camper, I typically look for shaded areas which provide a little shelter from the elements and they did have several of these in this campground. Water access to the lake was also very close by although I didn’t see a swimming beach at the time of my visit. This could have been in part due to the rains and the lake levels or it could be that there indeed was not one in this area.

     I had decent cell signal at this campground on AT&T. 

    **TIPS: **

    • On weekends make sure to book in advance, the lake is one of the biggest draws of the area. 
    • Drive into town and check out the“US Largest Toilet Bowl” art installation,“Garden of Eden” and the downtown district where you can find a few unique pieces. Don’t forget to stop off and try some of the famous Lucas bologna. 
    • Check out the trail on the property to the rocks!

    Nice Little Spot

    Convenient location. Accommodating staff. Well lit. Good dog run. We stopped in early November and Kansas was already cold and windy!

    Eagle Point Campground — Kanopolis State Park

    Small Camp Ground but great views

    This is a small camp ground with electric hook ups only. Great views of the lake. What really makes this park is all the hiking, biking and horse riding trails. Literally miles and miles of trails with some of the best rock formations you will find in Kansas. There is also a larger camp ground set back from the lake, that is larger and has pins for horses.

    Triple J RV Park

    Lovely owners, cute spot, convenient everything

    Called Sunday of July 4 weekend and the owners answered. Late check in was zero issue. Super friendly folks and their pets are sweet as can be! Walked 5 mins up to Meridy’s for dinner and had one of the best steaks of my life. For just passing through, I couldn’t ask for a better quality stop.


Guide to Hoisington

Kanopolis State Park spans 1,585 acres near Hoisington, Kansas, with elevations ranging from 1,500 to 1,700 feet. The park sits within the Smoky Hills region, characterized by rolling prairie and striking limestone formations. Summer temperatures often reach 90°F with winter lows around 20°F, making late spring through early fall the primary camping season for visitors seeking yurt camping or traditional outdoor stays.

What to do

Hiking through limestone formations: The trails at Kanopolis State Park Eagle Point Campground showcase unique rock formations and diverse terrain. "Trails with cliffs, creeks and caves, campsites with incredible views and Bald Eagles soaring overhead. No other campers in the grounds. What's not to love?" reports Holt and Sam L.

Kayaking on Wilson Lake: The crystal-clear waters at Lucas Park provide excellent conditions for paddling. A camper named Jello D. shares, "Our site overlooked the lake from a small ridge. We were able to launch our kayaks easily lets say 50 ft down. Was a small beach as well by the site."

Fishing opportunities: Many campgrounds offer shoreline access for anglers. Visitors at Sandyshore Campground appreciate the lake access. Henry M. notes, "Great place for a weekend getaway or long fishing trip on the reservoir. All the facilities were very clean and the park was well maintained."

What campers like

Waterfront camping: Sites along the shoreline are highly sought after. Elizabeth S. from Sandyshore Campground explains, "Perfect mix of shade and shoreline. Beautiful views. The closest restroom is 1/2 a mile away up in Buzzard Bay though."

Clean facilities: The well-maintained restrooms and shower buildings receive consistent praise. At Triple J RV Park, Jeremy H. reports, "Great location, the staff was very welcoming to my arrival and I felt safe with all of the lighting on property. Sites are very level and the entire property is clean and charming."

Swimming beaches: The clear water attracts swimmers during summer months. Shawn W. from Lucas Park states, "Water is crystal clear and affords people the opportunity to swim fish boat etc. Must stay if traveling through the flat state of KS."

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Many popular sites require advance booking, especially during peak season. Amanda from Lucas Park notes, "The primitive campsites were free Monday evening through Wednesday evening. Vault toilets were clean and there was a trash dumpster at the end of each loop."

Wildlife considerations: Ticks can be prevalent in summer months. Carter W. warns about hiking at Kanopolis: "bring tick spray can be brutal out there!"

Site selection strategies: Waterfront sites fill quickly. Elizabeth S. suggests, "wish they would make these spots reservable as they fill up very quick since they are first come first serve. Especially on weekends."

Yurt camping options: For those interested in yurt camping near Hoisington, Kansas, several campgrounds now offer these accommodations with more amenities than traditional tent camping.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Multiple campgrounds feature play areas for children. Cheryl T. from Lincoln Campground mentions the facilities: "There were play grounds for the kids. Really nice clean baths and the roads were pretty easy to push a wheelchair over."

Beach day activities: Designated swimming areas with sandy shores work well for families. Amanda reports about Lucas Park, "The beach area looked clean. Each campsite in the Point area we were in had a lot of room around it."

Accessible facilities: Some campgrounds offer wheelchair-friendly paths and facilities. Rick notes that Lincoln Campground has "a nice park next door" in addition to the camping facilities.

Tips from RVers

Full hookup availability: Many campgrounds offer water, electric, and sewer connections. Ronald R. describes Triple J RV Park as having "Nice level gravel pads. New full hook ups. Nice place to stop for the night."

Pull-through sites: Several campgrounds feature easy-access sites. GP shares about Triple J: "We got a pull-through full-hookups site. The campsite pads are level, nice and wide, gravel like the roads, with wide grassy/dirt/gravel areas between and beautiful mature shade trees everywhere."

Check-in procedures: Many campgrounds accommodate late arrivals. Carlene from Triple J explains, "We pulled in very late last night, called ahead to tell them, very nice folks they left a note for us to park and a site that didn't wake up rest of the campers."
