Beautiful lakeside camping
Pulled in for the night on trip to Missouri. It was a Columbus Day so no one at entrance booth and nobody answering posted phone numbers. Met a gentleman in a park pickup and he said just pick a spot and put your money in the box when you leave - $26 a night, with electric and water and dump station available. It is beautifully maintained and we had the place to ourselves - liked it so much we stayed 2 nights. Had good Verizon signal. The site data says 40 ft max, but many of the spots could accommodate 45-50 ft without a problem. No pull-thru sites - all spots are back-in, but laid out for easy backing.

Nice, clean campground!
We just stopped to overnight so we didn't take advantage of all the amenities. Campground was clean and well kept. We had no issues hooking up and got a restful nights sleep aside from the occasional train.

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.

Peaceful Over Night Stop
We stopped here on our way back home from New Mexico. It was a clean, quite campground. The bathrooms were clean. Parking pads were level. We arrived afterhours, and used an envelope to pay. The payment system was pretty confusing. The pay envelopes stated different rates than the website, which also is different than what the employee told us on the phone.
We would stay here again if we needed to stop over night in the area.

Great Campground Near Garden City
Great 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.

A dozen empty sites
An obvious camping loop with picnic tables had one small car parked in a spot when I got here. He woke up and drove away. I saw another couple people sitting in a car at the stop sign. Looked suspicious to me. The flattest most level site I could find is barely adequate. All the rest have quite a tilt.

Ford State Fishing Lake
Clean, quiet,no frills, no bugs!
Small park, very quiet and nice, right off the lake. No facilities, has dumpster . Bathroom dirty - so only 4 stars. Just side road parking, but enough to park a trailer. Amazingly, even if parking is right near the lake - no bugs!!!

Overnight stay
We just stayed there over night and did the late check in but it worked great for us. Just needed water and electricity but they have all the options.

Blue RV Park
Hidden gem!
While we did not actually stay here, I wish we had. We had to reroute to avoid flooding, storms, tornadoes. We stayed at a public park down the highway a way that felt more like a truck stop. In the morning, we realized we were in need of a dump station. Not only was this rv park the closest, but they had to have been the nicest, and it was immaculate. If you’re looking for an easy off-on with large rig-friendly pull-through pads, this is your spot. I am not affiliated with this outfit; I was not paid in any way to endorse it, in fact, they wouldn’t even let me pay. We will definitely be back as paying over-nighters sometime in the near future. 😁

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.

Quiet spot for the evening
We were solo camping here. Only a few folks walking dogs around the lake came through. We’re self-contained but there is a vault toilet and a water spigot if needed.

Ford State Fishing Lake
Steep and not very RV friendly, but great view
Not much of a lake, right now? Kinda a puddle, but it’s an awesome place and bet it will fill up nicely. Sign says, harmful bacteria in water, so do t swim or let your dogs in the water. And kinda steep and not many of the sites are level. It’s January, so I’m the only crazy one here.

Meade City Park
Very small and parking is very limited
Free east to get to dump and water, but small rig only. I’m here in January, but looks like supposed to park on the grass

Clean, Quiet and New Campground
Campground was a little difficult to find the entrance to, but once we found it we had no problems with the rest of our stay. Campground was quite and fully paved. The kids enjoyed riding their bikes and scooters while we relaxed at our spot. Plenty of room to pull in and out of spots. The common buildings were all new and very well kept. Highly recommend if you are in Dodge City.

Nice FREE camping
The sites are gravel and have their own picnic tables. Didn't realize kansas could be so beautiful! Nice view of the lake

Free Camping
I stayed two different nights this week. I was there Tuesday night and Friday night. Tuesday night I had the place to myself. Friday night just had two other rigs there. I wouldn't recommend this place to big rigs. The vault toilets were trashed Tuesday and out of TP. Friday the trash was picked up and TP was stocked. Vault toilets were a bit gross, but they did their job. Toilets are a bit of a walk from the camp sites.

Favorite so far
Only stayed 1 night.
Nice, friendly and helpful check in.
Easy hookups, nice sites.
Liked the overall vibe.
kate B.GuideGunsmoke 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.

Prairie Wind RV Park
Small but nice spot. No on site bathroom. You need a BR in your RV. Dump site is available .
We wanted to stay, but we do not have a restroom in our camper, and there is not one on site.
