    Gunsmoke RV Park

    Noisy

    We stayed here in June for two nights on a road trip north. Front section of spots 1-43 are close to the road and it is very noisy. They made these front sites big rig friendly by using the site next to yours for unhooking your tow or towed vehicle. We were put in the front section due to a large work crew taking up a lot of spaces in the back section.  We could not open our awning in the first assigned spot, so the staff was accommodating and moved us over one spot. Come to find out, it is very windy here, so awnings are not used very often. We would highly recommend getting a site in the back. Sites 50-80. Less noise, long pull throughs and nice wide grass areas. The wifi was not very strong or was too busy, so we used our own hot spot. This is conveniently located close to Dodge City attractions.

    Arkalon Park

    Soft, sliding deep dirt road from the highway

    After a scary, mushy slip slide drive through deep soft red dirt, we arrived to the bottom of the Cimarron River valley for an overnight stay. 50 amps and water on a concrete pad, plus a shade cover over a picnic table, fire ring, and grill. Our 34 ft motorhome made it, and we prayed it wouldn't rain before time to leave. Nice campground with trails, a playground, and 3 well placed underground tornado shelters. Great staff (camp hosts) and a well run park.

    Western Star RV Ranch

    Pretty on the prairie

    All gravel and rock park surrounded by grass. Long, wide pull through sites plus a row of back ins. No permanent residents, beautiful showers, laundry, clubhouse and office, friendly staff, horse corrals, sunrise and sunsets were gorgeous.

    Watersports Campground

    Where did the Lake Go

    Water Sports, no longer has it's Lake. There are still some trailers here from when this is to be the watering hole for the area. Over 100 plus sites. Many 30 amp less 50 amps, water at every site and a dump station. Like many other parks in this region the burs are here too. Laundry Room good for small to medium sized items. Bath house has codes and are in the need of a little TLC, but are clean. Great price. They made a fresh pot of coffee for is before we left. Customer Service is awesome.

    Prairie Wind RV Park

    All the Comforts

    This is a tiny (5 pull-thru slots) RV park run by the county in Montezuma, Kansas. Perfect for an overnight stay, it has 30 and 50 amp hookups, sewer and water. All for only $20/night. Each slot is a gravel drive with a concrete pad on the side that has a concrete picnic table. It’s right off KS-56, but we didn’t find it too noisy. I would definitely stay here again if passing by this way. Even has the added bonus of a small adjacent field where we were able to kite our paramotor wing for a bit.

    Seven Winds RV Park

    Older Park with a lot of long-term people

    All the sites are pull through everything worked sewer water electric $20 a night for 30 amp. Owner was very friendly when I was here the Highway 54 was torn up completely so it would be best to call and come in the back way if you look at your Mac, you can take a left on 12th St. by the Valero and go down and wind your way through.

    Meade State Park Campground

    Lake Meade State Park in March

    Stayed 2 nights in early March.   Lake View site #22, beautiful view from the lake's edge.   Most sought after site.    Was nearly all alone.  Power and Electric hook-ups.   Many hook-up options but no sewer.    Did have a dump station.   Roughly $20/night for premium site.    Some spots are a little close together, but the lake views and otherwise open areas make up for it.

    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.


Guide to Meade

RV campgrounds near Meade, Kansas provide convenient stopping points along major highways in southwest Kansas. The flat prairie landscape experiences high winds year-round, with summer temperatures frequently exceeding 90°F between June and September. Most campgrounds are situated along Highways 54 and 400, creating easy access points for travelers crossing the region.

What to do

Visit the Dalton Gang Hideout: Located in Meade, this historic site commemorates the infamous Dalton Gang with a museum and the original escape tunnel. Circle-O RV Park and Cottages provides nearby accommodation when exploring local attractions.

Explore the High Plains landscape: The prairie surrounding Meade offers opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography. At Prairie Wind RV Park, campers enjoy open space. "Perfect for an overnight stay, it has 30 and 50 amp hookups, sewer and water. All for only $20/night. Even has the added bonus of a small adjacent field where we were able to kite our paramotor wing for a bit," notes Christopher R.

Visit nearby Dodge City attractions: Western history enthusiasts can make day trips to Dodge City, 30 miles north of Meade. "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," reports Grace D. about Gunsmoke RV Park.

What campers like

Well-spaced campsites: Campers appreciate parks that provide adequate room between 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," explains Paul Y. about Gunsmoke RV Park.

Value for overnight stays: Many travelers note the reasonable pricing at campgrounds in the region. At Cimarron RV Park, campers find good value. "At $25/night for such spacious and clean sites, full hook-ups, nice clean bathrooms and showers and a very clean and accommodating laundry room. You just can't beat the value," writes A Z.

Proximity to amenities: Access to groceries and supplies ranks high on camper priorities. "Very OK place. Clean, has wifi, grocery store across the street, and there was a food trailer with good food next door," notes Bruce about Cimarron RV Park.

What you should know

Train noise affects some parks: Railroad tracks run near several campgrounds, creating noise issues. "A lot of train traffic. Not bad, though, if you're used to train or city sounds," mentions Chad A B. about Seven Winds RV Park.

Park conditions vary widely: Quality and maintenance differ significantly between parks. "Older park but well maintained. WiFi is slow. Cell service is good. Site spacing is excellent. The pool was clean," reports Kelly B.

Limited recreation amenities: Most parks provide basic services rather than extensive recreational facilities. "The best thing about it is its proximity to Dodge City," states kate B., noting the practicality of locations.

Tips for camping with families

Consider site location carefully: For families needing quiet, request sites away from highways. "Sites near entrance may be an issue with highway noise and an active railroad nearby," advises Kelly B.

Look for parks with pools: During hot summer months, swimming facilities provide welcome relief. "They have a code on the entrance gate and bathroom and laundry doors. The gate is open during the day and closes at night. A decent size pool. Good space between campers," reports James L.

Check bathroom availability: Not all parks maintain public restrooms. "We wanted to stay, but we do not have a restroom in our camper, and there is not one on site," notes Larry about Ramblin Rose RV Park & Motel.

Tips from RVers

Book rear campsites when possible: Experienced RVers recommend sites furthest from highways for reduced noise. "We would highly recommend getting a site in the back. Sites 50-80. Less noise, long pull throughs and nice wide grass areas," advises Missy A.

Consider wind when setting up: Strong winds affect awning use throughout the region. "Very quiet. Lots of trees. There is a bathroom you may use. Internet is not very good. The sites are level. We just stopped for an overnighter," reports Beverly M. about Ramblin Rose RV Park.

Call ahead for directions during construction: Road work can complicate navigation to campgrounds. "When I was here the Highway 54 was torn up completely so it would be best to call and come in the back way," suggests Mary L.
