"First time in Kansas, had a quick one night stop during our road trip. This was a gorgeous lake tucked not far from the highway."
"Quintessential plains of Kansas. Pure beauty as far as the eye can see. Blue water. Generously spaced and well maintained sites, though a lot of them have limited shade. Not an issue in April."
$10 - $24 / night
"Not a lot of groceries or gas nearby plan accordingly."
"Lake is down but amenities are nice"
$65 - $100 / night
"I would recommend to anyone passing through Kansas to rest here@"
"Sites spacious but not very private, we were lucky to get one on the edge. Lake is nothing special and no hiking trails or anything, seemed to be mostly boating or fishing."
"This little RV park is a perfect no frills stop while driving through Kansas with easy access off I70."
"There's a self-pay station in front of the bathrooms near the entrance to the campground. I stayed here on a Monday night in late October, and had no problem getting a site."
"We stayed here as it was right in the middle between Kansas City and Denver where we were headed. Looks like everyone that stayed the night had the same thought."
"This campground is right off the highway. The sites are close but otherwise a very nice campground if you're driving through. They have a pool, laundry, and store."
$35 / night
"Campground just outside of fun, nice Hays, Kansas.
Nearly no trees, but extra long sites - probably 90 feet long. Almost all are pull-thru."
"A nice little campground near Hays! The site was well kept and was an easy pull through, full hookup. Nice quiet campground."
"Growing up in southwest Kansas it is difficult to take a quick weekend trip anywhere close. Horsethief sure changed that."
"Having a lake this close is a treat even if it’s not a big lake. I don’t fish but see and hear fish jumping all the time."
LegendThis campground was on track for 5-stars until I used the shower facilities the next morning. I used the shower building that had the toilet and vanity all in one room; the water pressure got weaker the hotter the water was and the electrical outlets don't work, so I couldn't blow dry my hair. My husband said water pressure and temperature wasn't an issue for him in the shower building that didn't have the toilets/vanity... but again, no toilets/sinks in the shower rooms. Despite the shower houses, the staff is really friendly and the grounds are well-kept. The price is very reasonable for what you get here, too.
ScoutThis is a beautiful campground with kind camp hosts. I would recommend to anyone passing through Kansas to rest here@
ScoutClean and new facilities. Lots of spots, many pull through.
GuideLast minute reservation easily accommodated. Beautiful and super clean. Amazing bathhouse and coffee house. Cabins also available for rent. One of the nicest rv parks we’ve stayed in.
RangerMostly big rigs, camped there in a van. Hookups were good. Sites spacious but not very private, we were lucky to get one on the edge. Lake is nothing special and no hiking trails or anything, seemed to be mostly boating or fishing.
Very quiet mid-week in May, which was lovely. The bathrooms suck and I saw a copperhead right by the bathhouse so be careful.
ScoutGreat camp ground with clean and maintained amenities. Having a lake this close is a treat even if it’s not a big lake. I don’t fish but see and hear fish jumping all the time. It’s new so the trees haven’t grown to provide a ton of shade yet but great value for the price and location.
GuideOk it's more of a pond but still nice. Normal KOA esk camping. $20 in off season for pull through spots. $25 during on season.
TravelerConvenient and safe. Spent one night on our way west and was glad to find this nice relaxing, shaded place. It had water and electric for $25.
RangerThis is prob a little gem for rv rigs. Almost all sites are set up for this. There are some tent sites. Right on a creek - super buggy and just in a slightly strange area of town. Not bad or anything like that - you have the creek on one side and old broke down commercial buildings on the other.
I just can’t see what the point of staying here is at all. This is only a place you’d stay for a night and a car/tent camper is rather save my money and sleep at a truck stop.
I feel bad giving it such a harsh review and to be fair - we did not stay here. Took a few loops around and decided it was just kind of depressing. Again I think in an rv passing through it would be fine. But for a tent/car it just didn’t sit right with me (however there was a tent set up at the very end). And to note it’s kind of busy. There was at least 15 rvs there on a Tuesday night. It’s not scary or anything it’s just why?
Did see some cool birds though.
