Boating is restricted to fishing only. The lake population includes Channel Catfish (which are stocked during the summer months thanks to funding from the Urban Fishing Program), Black bass, Bluegill, Crappie, Flat-head catfish, and Walleye.
TravelerFree camp for 10 days every 60 days. Campsites had water, power, access to restrooms. Open April 1 to Oct 15!
GuideTried to find this park using the “Get Directions”. The place it took us there is no park of any kind. It was a residential neighborhood.

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

Good for families or a solo cowboy. Well maintained, water is a available, and clean bathrooms that smell good. Nice picnic areas. Primitive tent sites and RV sites with electrical hookups. First come, first serve.

A sweet little city park in a sweet little city. Electric hookups. Water available at a central pump. Bathrooms were closed for the season Nov. 20 when I was here.

Needed to be in the area for a few days.
Nice concrete pads large enough for our fifth wheel.
50amp water electric for $20
ScoutPark is free. With hookups. Cute little town. Lots to see. Wish there were more of these out there
RangerThis park campground was a great stop for a night as we drove through Nebraska. Safe, clean, and nearly full by the time we parked early-evening on a Friday. Beatrice's website says "20 camping sites (3 pull-through)" and I would consider these to be geared toward RVs/vans, not so much toward tenting.

Beautiful campground! It had pit toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings. Solid free camping! Other campers were sort of rowdy, but it was a holiday weekend.
RangerAs you enter the park off of 10th street the bathroom and dump station are on the right. 3 spots have electric. 2 were taken when we arrived. Donations accepted ( how could you not) there were a couple of potable water spigots available. Previous reviews were spot on. Great little town. For the tent campers there are 5 spots with 20 amp power plugs also.
ScoutCamp hosts fantastic! $20/night full hookup. Nice shower. Quiet. Great for Starlink.

Camphost drives on his four wheeler drinking. Allows people to ride their boats and jets skis near the bank where people are fishing. Threatened our dog. Told us this is a recreational lake for boats and not fishing. No atvs allowed but he drinks and rides his all day. Very dangerous with toue kids running around. Not recommended
TravelerVery nice place, sites are not well marked. You have to climb the curb to get to the site, and its dirt, with some grass, and lots of nice trees. We had electric at our site and they did have water available in March, dump station is nearby as well. Bathrooms where closed.

Broadcasting this now because I was not aware when I showed up: there are only two designated tent sites in this entire campground. However, both these sites are clean, beautiful, and located near the trail that takes you to the (honestly very well-presented) adjacent historical park. Out of the two Nebraska state recreation areas I stayed at on my trip through the state, this one is definitely my favorite. I would give it 3.5 stars, but the coin-operated showers knock it down to a 3.

Has a pool marina and bar/restaurant. Lodging from yurts to big cabins.
GuideIf you’re just passing through and looking for a place to camp it’s a little far off 70 but lots of space and a very nice place to stay for being free and on a lake.
TravelerNice spots near the water. Lots of fishers during the day but cleared out at night. No longer picking up trash.

If you’re ever near Stromsberg NE, this is THE town to stop in. Campground is in and near Buckley park. We stayed in the older campground, which had electric, shade trees, a bathroom ( not a pit toilet) with a sink and soap. But upon walking the area we found the newer, As of late last year, campground. That one even has a water hook up for every site. Both grounds have a host and are lit at night for security, but look up the town, rated A + in the US for crime rate. Walking the town it feels as if I walked back in time. Pay phones, bikes in their stands left unlocked, everyone says hi. I can’t say enough about this town. But bring cash if you want to purchase almost anything, as many of businesses do not accept CC or debit cards. It all works on the donation system, so give what you can.
TravelerNice spot to pull in for the night. Lots of spots on Sunday night in June. A few fisherman and kayakers out. Lots of shade and level spots for rvs. Can’t swim but dog had fun in lake. Water smelled fishy. Lots of trash laying around. Leave no trace people!
Scout
lots of hookups and places to rent camp. pretty bodies of water. not a bad spot
GuideWe arrived at around 5 on a Sunday and had a hard time finding a spot by by around 6pm all the locals were leaving and we ended up being the only people there by sunset. The toilets weren’t the cleanest but it was nice to have them. There’s also a few trails around the lake that were nice to run on with the pups!
GuideThis town owned lake and campground were a true delight. The campground is well kept and delivers all you could hope for. Quiet and birds. There are electic hook ups and water. It's a hidden gem with relatively light use. There was no one there the night during the week in April. The ranger said that weekends get heavy use during Memorial day thru labor day but there are still usually spots available and during the week use is very light. if you are in the area it's a great spot to stop.
TravelerPretty good place to stop. Only stayed for one night. Cute dog park close by. Close tiny human park. Pool close by, it was closed when we were there. Cute places to eat short drive away. You can tent with or without power. Has water and electric hook ups on a couple spots. On certain spots they have one of each, or none. Has Bathrooms, no showers. It’s free to stop here!! They have donation box which I hope you donate so they can keep this place going.

Great hidden location with many animals and a variety of spots to camp... only 45 minutes from DC. a destination location in itself, but close to chesapeake beach and the chesapeake bay.. wonderful hiking trails with great hills to climb! A real exercise... Too much to list...an absolute treasure, but I'm kind of partial to this place

Last 4th of July my family and friends went tent camping here. There is a nice beach area to swim, we rented kayaks and canoes for a leisurely paddle around the lake. Our camp site had plenty of over head cover from the sun.
Overall a very pleasant experience, especially for those looking to get away, but not too far away.
ScoutMaking a trip out west needed an easy stop for a night of sleep Close enough off the highway , close enough to shopping Easy to pull in and find a spot, not very level but good enough Beautiful lake
TravelerStayed here the allowed 5 nites & really enjoyed it. Went to the Pony Express station & museum, & was pleasantly surprised by how interesting & informative it was. You have to eat at the Wagon Wheel Cafe! Excellent food. Camping is free, but they have a donation box on the restroom wall. Free dump station also. Water & electric hook ups.
