Veterans Memorial State Forest Campground

Forest sites line the upper Platte River at this state-managed campground, where large campsites provide space for RVs up to 20 feet. Some sites sit close enough to the river for water access, while others are set back among the trees. The campground operates year-round with basic amenities including hand-pump water stations and outhouses.

Highway noise from the adjacent road affects the camping experience, as noted by visitors. Campers can find additional places to camp around Honor or explore Platte River State Forest for a more secluded alternative.

Nice rustic campground near Platte River

Campsites set in forest along the upper Platte river. Sites are large and some are not far from the river. Campground has outhouses and water hand pumps. Only big down side is that it's located right on the side of the highway.
