Awesome Overnight Stay, Few People

Stopped here on my way through Kansas towards Colorado. The park was nearly empty on a Sunday night, so I got a nice lakefront site with no one else around for $14.

Only complaint is that the camp attendant wasn't there, so I had to pay for the campsite online. But cell coverage was decent.

COE campgrounds are some of the best

I have come to really like COE campgrounds. Everyone I've visited has been clean, spacious and well maintained. This one is no exception. We stayed in mid week during May and just about had the place to ourselves.

There is plenty of room between sites with well maintained grounds. Most but not all have electricity. Some also have water.

There are sites for any size rig but the larger ones would be better on the site away from the lake. Most of the sites along the road by the lake are small and not very level. The upper ones are much larger and flat.

We had 5 full bars of Verizon with good speeds. This would a good one to hand out for a few days.

For $14 it’s great

Car camped in my Subaru, it was nice and quiet, only half of the sites were filled. Bathrooms are alright, not the cleanest but nothing I haven’t see camping before.
