Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Larned, KS

Cheyenne Bottoms Campground provides basic accommodations for pet owners with a quiet, free camping area featuring fire pits, picnic tables, and vault toilets. Located 20 minutes from the highway near Great Bend, this primitive camping area allows pets throughout the grounds with no specific restrictions noted. The campground is adjacent to the largest wetland in the interior United States, making it popular with hunters and wildlife enthusiasts who bring their dogs. The grassy, level sites accommodate both tents and RVs, though the ground may be muddy after rain. Clean port-a-potty facilities are available, but no drinking water or hookups are provided.

Kiowa County State Park Campground offers another pet-friendly primitive camping option with designated tent sites featuring fire rings and tables around a small lake. Dogs can accompany their owners while fishing from the lake's two docks or hiking the shoreline, though campers should note significant trash has been observed along the water's edge. The park provides a vault toilet and water spigot but no RV hookups or electricity. Visitors report privacy between camping spots despite the open Kansas landscape, with short trees surrounding the lake area. The nearby grain silo creates consistent background noise that some find unobtrusive, while occasional train sounds can be heard from the railroad tracks.

    Triple J RV Park

    Nice sites

    We are slowly making our way to Montana and decided to stay for two nights. After seeing the campground we changed our plans and stayed a week. We were parked across from the dog park as requested. The laundry facilities were good and reasonably priced.

    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.

    Nice Little Spot

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

    $4 per star

    If need to stop and want a full hook-up for $20, give this place a try. The camp ground manager, Monica, was very helpful and proactive. She ensured we had a 50 amp FHU pull-thru. There is not much around so you better be self sufficient. There are several gas stations, a small Dillon's grocery and a Family Dollar store. There is a road on the backside of the campground and a large open field to walk your dogs if you have them. We are going back through the area in Feb and will stay here again, but not sure what that looks like in a Kansas winter.

    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.

    Kiowa County State Park Campground

    Noisy

    As with many campgrounds in Kansas, this state fishing lake boasts camping without charge. There are five designated primitive tent spots with fire rings and tables. No RV spots, no electric, and no water. Two spots are at the entrance near the vault toilet and three spots are caddy corner on the back of the lake. You are responsible for removing your trash, the fields are well maintained, and of course you can fish. There are two docks and you can drop a boat in the small lake. There is a lot of noise from the working silos, railroad, and highways.

    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.

    Quiet spot for the evening

    We were solo camping here. Only a few folks walking dogs around the lake came through. We’re self-contained but there is a vault toilet and a water spigot if needed.

    A place to park

    RV Park had your typical hookups. Its really just a parking lot behind a structure that has about a dozen spots available, adjacent to the highway. Privacy and quiet would not describe this RV park.
