Happy to be left alone.

Late October tent camping- low around 19f... we seemed to be the only souls in the place.

Our site was a few hundred yards from the lake, and we had a great morning walk.

Downsides:

Cost- $12 for out of state plates and $15 for a site without amenities is steep.

We were also by the dumpster, and they came by to empty it around 7am. Probably a Monday morning problem, but still worth mentioning.

Primitive Camping at $15 a Night

This is primitive camping on the peninsula of Branched Oak, so you get close access to Disc Golf, nice beach, and Showers just up the road. On the east end there are sites right on the water. Yet other than the regular old picnic table, burn pit and rather dirty vault toilet, there is nothing else here.

For $15 you can do better in Nebraska
