    Gunsmoke RV Park

    Nicely Separated Campsites

    This Campground has one of the most separated sites of the places we've stayed. Most of the sites at the rear part of the park have spaces separated by one's own grassy area and trees, where the picnic table is situated. There's a vice of 50 or 30 amp power, water, dump, showers/bathrooms, laundry, game room and pool. We had to arrive after office closure and the owner was very accommodating about sending our space number, map to the site, and codes by text. WiFi has a password, unlike a few other places with unprotected WiFi.

    Good overnight stop

    Older park but well maintained. WiFi is slow. Cell service is good. Site spacing is excellent. The pool was clean. Sites near entrance may be an issue with highway noise and an active railroad nearby.

    Gunsmoke RV Park

    Nice park with spacious sites

    Sites 50 through 82 are in the back away from the highway and very quiet. 33 through 44 are back in sites and front the highway and are noisier. 50 to 82 have 20 feet of grassy space between sites, I highly recommend these sites. They also have trees to provide shade. Some sites have multiple sewer dumps so your positioning of your rig is less of a problem. They accept the Dyrt Pro card for a 10% discount. All level sites. 😊

    Comfortable and secure

    All hookups function properly, gravel sites fairly level and easy to access. Laundry and showers available, have not used them yet. Bad time of year for exploring the area. Still very arid and dry this spring. No complaints about the park.

    Gunsmoke RV Park

    Compared to other campgrounds in Kansas, maybe 4 stars.

    Keep in mind, we haven’t found any five-star campgrounds in Kansas, and a shortage of campgrounds in general, so we were glad to find this perfectly adequate, safe space with level gravel pads close together. Full hookups. The best thing about it is its proximity to Dodge City.

What you should know

Site selection matters: Location within a property can significantly impact experience. "Sites 50 through 82 are in the back away from the highway and very quiet. 33 through 44 are back in sites and front the highway and are noisier. 50 to 82 have 20 feet of grassy space between sites, I highly recommend these sites," advises Paul Y. regarding Gunsmoke RV Park.

Limited amenities: Some cabin accommodations lack expected features. According to Tiffany's review of Dodge City KOA, "The place itself is just ok. It's just a parking lot of RVs. No trees, no pool, nothing on site. It is close to a nice park and a water park if you want to add more to your bill."

Reservation process: Many properties have after-hours check-in procedures. "Easy set up reservation was ready for us, even though the office was closed. They left instructions and map to park in our spot," notes Charlene P. about her cabin experience.

Site spacing: The distance between cabins varies significantly between properties and sections. "Site spacing is excellent. The pool was clean. Sites near entrance may be an issue with highway noise and an active railroad nearby," explains Kelly B. about Gunsmoke RV Park.

Wind exposure: Regional weather patterns affect outdoor activities. "Come to find out, it is very windy here, so awnings are not used very often," explains Missy A. about practical considerations for cabin stays in the Dodge City area.
