Situated about 3.5 miles from Interstate 80's exit 312, George H Clayton Campground sits within a city-managed park on the outskirts of Grand Island, Nebraska. Rates run $15 per night for tent sites and $20 to $30 for RV spots with electric hookups. The roughly 20 RV sites feature concrete pads that are level and easy to pull into, though there are no water or sewer connections at individual sites. Water fill is available at the first pull-out on the left when entering the RV section, so watch for the sign or you'll need to loop back around.
The campground is well-maintained. Reviewers consistently mention cleanliness across bathrooms, showers, and common areas, and a camp host is typically on site to greet arrivals and answer questions. The tent area has wide spacing between sites, soft grass, and shade from mature trees. One shower is available near the RV area and takes quarters, with $1 buying six minutes of hot water. Bee C. notes it is "very quiet considering busy road nearby," which is a fair summary of the tradeoff: this is a city park with a highway not far off, but noise is less intrusive than the location might suggest.
The surrounding park gives campers access to walking and biking trails, playgrounds, and outdoor workout stations. A trail runs along the back edge of the property near Stuhr Museum, where historical buildings are visible from the path. Wild turkeys have been spotted moving through the area. Robert T., who stayed here during a cross-country cycling trip, called it "the best so far, by a long way" among 60 campsites visited.
One logistical note: an automatic gate closes at 8:30 p.m. Late arrivals or anyone planning an evening away from camp should factor that cutoff into their plans. The pay station and registration are located in the RV area, roughly half a mile from the tent sites. Alcohol is not permitted in the campground. Verizon users report two to three bars of coverage. The campground runs from April through October, and a Monday visit in late September found roughly half the sites occupied, suggesting fall weekdays offer more breathing room than summer weekends.
Description
The Hall County Park camping season runs from March 19 through October 13. The gates are open for campers from 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM. An outside parking area is available for authorized vehicles from 8:30 PM to 7:30 AM. This lot is located just east of the main gates. If there should be an emergency while the gates are locked, instructions are posted at the gate. Check out time for overnight campers is 12:30 PM and there is a seven (7) night limit. This limit may be extended on a case by case basis.
