Easy access from highway. Most sites are 30 amp back in with 4 30/50 posts marked with pull thru. Showers and restrooms at swimming pool a block north. Dump at entrance of campsite. Water hydrants but not at all sites. Would stay again for quite overnight stay. August 10, 2024 $15 night Dropbox

This is a nice spot for a quick visit. Free hookups but only 50 amp

Quite park with lots of space. There are about 20 free Rv spots with electric and water hookups and several site with electricity for tents. They have nice clean bathrooms, a large playground in the shade, and a fishing pond

14 spots for RV's with electrical hiokups, bathrooms available, with a shower.

Small but not much use FREE. Stopped here on Dyrt review recommendation and was not disappointed. Labor Day weekend an we were the only one here. Only 2, 30 foot sites and 30 amp electric plus water. Did I mention Free? Pavilion with picknic tables. We would stay here again. A couple of large cottonwood trees shade the site. We didn’t unhook and the site was level.

This site is on a nice grassy area with trees and has hookups but that is a bout it. This is a small town where everyone waves to you. There is a nice community pool in town, one cafe and two restaurants. Our truck broke down here and we had to get a new transmission, so we were stuck here for a few days. We were the only campers the entire time.

This is our new go-to place. The spots are spacious and the view is beautiful. It’s also a bonus it offers WiFi.

We stayed 3 nights, it was a very nice place, they have water and electric at the site, water was not on as we camped in March. There is a sump station behind the High School. Pads are Concrete, I believe they have 20 pads, and an area for tent campers with electricity as well, small play ground too.

Nice spot to camp without spending a fortune. Their 50 amp plug ins were by the road but we didn’t get much if any traffic noise. We got to watch the parade from where we were parked. Will definitely be back!

Fairly quiet park off the highway. Not much to do around here but that's OK with us. Very small Midwest town. Two gas stations no grocery stores. 4 sites with 50 amp electric, water and sewer. $15 per day

This is more of a city park vibe rather than a camping spot but it's well maintained with plenty of amenities for staying the night on our way through

My husband and I just needed somewhere to stay overnight while driving through Kansas.  This fit the bill because it was along our route.  It is VERY primitive and used for hunting according to the website.  Our issue was that there were a million mosquitos because the water flowing right beside it.  We couldn't even walk from the car to our teardrop camper without getting swarmed.  Otherwise the area would not have been horrible just to stay overnight.  We did not make it to the bathroom across the road, but it looked like a normal vault toilet.

Excellent lake and open country! Big hunting fields to run dogs in. Good WiFi, cell service and water hooks ups in March! Looks like there is year around camping. They have prime site with fire pits, grills, concrete pad, tie down chains for wind. Bath house was being updated so no idea the condition. Pheasant can be heard in morning and evening. Lake is huge! Lots of different camping options around. Playground for kids at Kanza campground

We got here yesterday. It has electric 50/30 and water, concrete pads are level. Picnic table. Lots of shade. Clean. By donation. US 81 is close and under construction so there is some highway noise but in noticable when in the trailer. 14 spots, 10 were full. Town is very historic and friendly.

This was a great place to get of the highway and relax and camp. No noise except the geese and owls doing their goose and owl stuff. Bring your own water, and PACK OUT YOUR OWN TRASH! Don’t ruin this wonderful campground.
