Best RV Parks & Resorts near Lawrence, KS

Running water, sewer, and electrical hookups are standard at most RV parks around Lawrence, where sites fit vehicles from small trailers to 45-foot motorhomes. The campgrounds typically have pull-through spots with level concrete or gravel pads, which saves time when parking larger rigs. Most electrical connections provide either 30-amp or 50-amp service, covering the needs of both older and newer RVs. Dump stations are available at nearly all Lawrence campgrounds, though many sites include full hookups right at the pad. The access roads to Lawrence's camping areas are wide and well-maintained, with few low branches or tight turns that might challenge bigger motorhomes. Quiet hours limit generator use at most parks, typically restricting operation to daytime hours. Fire rings and picnic tables come with most sites, giving campers outdoor living space beyond their RV. Length restrictions change from park to park, so it's worth calling ahead to check that your rig will fit. Lawrence campgrounds blend practical amenities with nice surroundings, making them popular with both weekend and longer-term visitors. During peak seasons, the best RV spots often book up months ahead, especially at parks closest to town. Many campers use Lawrence as a base camp since most local attractions are just a short drive from the RV parks.
