      If you like being more secluded and like to primitive camp there are over 20 spots in the 22 acres of our Freedom Field on the west side of the property.

      Milo Farm is located in the country just 30 minutes from downtown Kansas City & 20 min from the sports stadiums.

      There's a short hike to the campsites, no parking near. So unfortunately camping buses, vans, RVs won't work for these locations.

          For one night, ok

          Is situated near very busy Hwy and rails road. It is a little tight but the stuff is very nice.

          Well maintained campground

          Stayed here here for one night in early September during our trip to Wyoming. Paid $10 with interagency senior discount. Stayed in the B Loop. We were one of 5 campers here; camped in a camper van. Our sie, B46, was close to a clean vault toilet (which has tp). Short walk to clean restroom/shower house; this building also has a laundry room. The sites have a level gravel driveway; most sites are back-in. Spacing between sites is okay; no privacy between sites. Even though the campground is along a lake, the sites at B Loop offer no lake views. Hosts seemed friendly. Did not see any hiking opportunities at this loop. There is a path to the lake at the back end of the loop. There is nothing special about this campground, but it is a good, clean, quiet location for an overnight stay. I had excellent T-Mobile 5G service. I would stay here again.

          Great Escape RV Park & Campground

          Nice for overnight

          Just stopped for one night on our way east. Friendly host checked us in. Nice dog park with bench and shade. All sites are FHU. They offered to move us to a pull thru, but I picked our site based on proximity to the dog park, so I declined the move. We were in site 38, back-in 30 amp. Sites are a bit tight but no one next door so ok. I recommend for a stopover. Less fancy but nicer for dogs imo than Owl Creek which is one exit away. There is a pond for fishing (no license required) and a swimming pool.

          Amazing memories here

          Beautiful park. Pay more for the pull through you’ll have tons of parking even if your rig is big. Our rig is 44 ft and we parked two 2500’s on the pad no problem. We reserve our days in advance and if we need to cancel we just change our reservation to a different date with no fees. The pool and clubhouse are well kept so are the bathrooms and laundry room. This Is our favorite campsite to date. So much to do.

          Nice place, but just didn't care for how much the cops drove threw nonstop, we are camping to get away from people and doesn't make me feel at peace wondering why so many cops always drive thru.

          One night stay. Nice COAE campground. Had trouble getting here from the south because of extensive flooding from the April storms. Amazing bird songs and calls. Busy but quiet.

          Nice to spend the night. Friendly staff and clean bath/shower facilities. Close proximity to the interstate does come with some traffic noise. Many retail options within a short drive.

          Owl Creek Market and RV Park

          We absolutely adored this campground.

          We spent about two weeks here around September . It’s well maintained and the staff was so friendly. If we are ever in the area we will definitely stay here again. The market is a great touch.

          So much trash

          6 sites in total, all had trash everywhere. A couple sites are big enough for an rv or pull behind. 14 days free in the Poague Conservation area.

          Decent spot

          It was quiet. We enjoyed our stay. I read about the black cat that was found there in the other review. It was still there when we camped in late December and quite hungry. Very friendly and needing love. We brought him home with us and he is the most amazing cat. Took a while to get litter trained but I’m glad we opened up our home to him before the bad weather got here. Thanks to this site, we found our new family member! Thanks to whoever posted.

          Nice for overnight

          Stayed one night while traveling back to the east coast. It is a decent campground. The bath house was clean and showers were hot. Sites are close together. Mine had shade. There is a small dog park at the top of the hill. 

          I came late and left early, so didn't get to browse the cheese shop, but it looked nice. I would stay here again.

          Good spot

          We offer a perspective on RV camping "off peak" (late fall and early spring).  This KOA has a nice eastern exposure for morning sun, and lots of pull through sites.  On the downside, if you're sensitive to nearby road noise, there's a lot of Jake Brakes on I-70 which, at least in the absence of tree foliage, is all over the park.

          I Made a Kittah Friend

          There is a super sweet local cat who befriended me here and made my visit so much better. I had some mechanical issues with my car and Kampground Kittah tried to help. 🤣

          Bathrooms were fine. It’s free camping so it was great that there were bathrooms at all.

          One of the locals stopped by my site to look for arrowheads. Apparently, she has found a lot in the area so that’s a good activity if the kids are bored.

          If you’re looking for a good wine, you can find some at the local auto parts store. I am not kidding! I think it’s Rick’s Auto Parts and their liquor is priced very reasonably. 😄 If your car’s broken down and you can’t drive, I guess you might as well drink and Rick’s there to help you out with both. 🤣

          Owl Creek Market and RV Park

          Bake, broiled, or fried.

          We were meeting cousins from Texas to do the Lewis and Clark loop (the campground is an excellent choice for that) this past weekend (August 19-21). The heat index was 120F. No lie. The campground had nothing to do with the ambient heat, but as there are only a couple lots with trees, very little grass, and the spaces are narrow enough to hand your neighbor a stick of butter from your window to theirs, we were all pretty miserable. 

          On the high side, the laundry and restrooms are above par (and the air conditioning was excellent), they have a lovely pool, and a small but adequate dog run. The cheese shop is very well appointed and included some lovely local wines which was a life saver as it was too hot to cook. Wine is a major food group, right?? The hosts were friendly and the facilities very clean. The park is right on the highway and so if you're looking for white noise...you've got that going for you. 30 amp power, sewer, and adequate water pressure at the site was nice. We were in space #68...I'm not kidding when I say they're narrow. 

          Not a place to recreate, but definitely a safe and clean space to spend the night enroute to your destination.

          Beautiful campground

          Quiet, beautiful campground located just outside of Kansas City, Mo. We had a full hookup site located right by the playground and it was perfect for our family. Only complaint were the bathroom/shower houses could use to be updated but they were quite clean!

          Family fun

          This campground would get 5 stars for being family friendly and the activities they have for kids. 3 stars for grumpy old people who don’t like kids noises past 8pm, lol. Staff were pleasant and sites were level. Close together typical of KOA. Did not use the facilities. Wifi is marginal. Right off the interstate, so the truck noises were there Clean, safe, would stay again if passing thru.

          Horrible

          Horrible customer service! I reserved a FHU site and upon arrival they said the sites sewer is broken. Instead of offering a premier site (which they had plenty available) or refunding us some money since our site is technically only a water and electric now. They took our money and said screw you! That’s not the camper way.

          Secluded location, great hosts

          I spent 5 nights here and the camp hosts were LOVELY, some of the friendliest I’ve met. The area was clean and the bathrooms well maintained, if not a bit older perhaps (the showers work, but one was only hooooot hot water and one was basically a pressure washer). The sites have a decent amount of space and you can likely get one with nice shade. Very central to Lee’s Summit and Independence, but secluded near the lake and peaceful. My only complain were the ticks, but it was a rough tick season this spring due to a mild winter—no fault of the campground, but something to be aware of.
