Neosho State Fishing Lake

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Managed by Kansas State Parks & Recreation, Neosho State Fishing Lake sits within its namesake protected area near Neosho camping and fishing, a neighboring site just to the northwest. The campground provides picnic tables, vault toilets, and lakeside fishing access. Cell coverage is reported as weak, though Starlink users have had success here. Crowds are minimal. Anglers visiting in June have found the lake active with other fishers while still having the camping area largely to themselves, making this a low-key overnight stop for those traveling through southeast Kansas.

Beautiful camping fishing and more

I stayed here while passing through Kansas found this on Free camping website it has picnic tables and free camping with vaulted toilets, fishing peers plenty of spots to camp good for Starlink and solar I have T-Mobile service. The reception was bad Starlink helped was quiet I was the only one here has some people fishing on the other side of the lake couple people fished next to me, but left shortly after had the whole place to myself in the month of June 2024. I’m a traveling nomad always looking to find great spots, and this one is perfect for a nice little settle.
