We ended up choosing this spot as I’m assuming we’re “off season” as many other surrounding places were closed to camping this time of year. This place looks like it has a lot of time time campers. The sites are tight, like right on top of each other. The office closed early but they had the information outside.
The bathrooms were clean and warm. The playground was taped off with caution tape.
This was an overnight stay, the traffic is loud but not overwhelming.

We’d passed through this area a few years ago when traveling I-80 and noticed there was a campground(CG) and golf course here in Waco, NE. We added this CG to our list and finally got a chance to stay here. The CG is a little ways off I-80 and easy to get to. Check-in was quick and easy and we were led to pull through site 303 with FHUs. There are separate prices for weekdays and weekends. The utilities were at the center of the long gravel pad. Water pressure was okay at around 40 psi. We got 2 bars on Verizon. The sites here are decently spaced especially for a private CG. The CG was clean and well-maintained. If there were long-term residents, you could not tell. We were here over a weekend, so there were families and a lot of kids using the swimming pool, mini golf, and the large playground area. Each site, along with a picnic table and fire pit has a bench swing. There’s a decent-sized dog park on the south side and larger one on the north side. The CG has its own tornado siren plus an underground tornado shelter. There’s one cabin for rent. They also have a well-kept laundry room with 2 washers and 2 dryers. York has your main amenities such as Walmart. The golf course right next door is a deceptively tough 9-hole course.
ScoutReally nice staff. Bathhouse is nice and clean. There are all sorts of games: Basketball, volleyball, miniature golf, Large Jenga, etc... Nice pool. Only issue: road noise. It's just off the expressway. It's not too bad though.

Stopped here for the night while traveling through the area. Great stop. Clean and safe campground with full hook ups. Would recommend.
GuideGreat campground other that you are on top of your neighbors. Thought we might not be able to open our awning, only about 3 to 4 feet between sites. Loved a lot of restrooms. Pool was nice. If you are tent camping great sites.
ScoutNice n quiet with a good breeze lots around for kids to do well kept n everything works as should I get back this way I will spend more time here next time .owners are real friendly and informative.

Older campground at museum. Clean and reasonable. Did not use showers. There is a nice grassy no hookups field. Good for tenters, horsemen.
TravelerI wasn’t going to write a review about the roughness of the campground, the very small and dirty showers and bathrooms, nor the very dirty museum(the pictures must have been when it was newer) until Mary, who checked me in, called my daughter a liar and told me I was going to have a life of disappointment because I don’t discipline her(texts attached).
I’m a PA member and found this place on their app. I was excited as that’s what my 11 year-old and I have been doing this school year. In fact, we had just stayed two days at Laura Ingalls Wilder’s house! Mary took my reservation on the phone and let me know sewer hookups were reserved for non-PA guests first. This was fine, though three of those nine spots were vacant both nights we were there.
We have two dogs with us. I let Mary know and she indicated that was fine as long as they were well-behaved. I told her they are. She told me they needed to be leashed, and I said, “Of course!” She continued to tell me a dog had been running loose that day for more than five minutes while she called it and while she understands sometimes they get out, this was just not ok. I agreed whole-heartedly.
I was surprised when we got there because the pictures on PA and on their website look tree-lined, grassy, and well-kept. It is rough. The grass is patchy and it’s more gravel than not. There are buildings around the RV sites that look like they’ve been abandoned for decades and they are the motel! It’s certainly not $35/night nice. It did come with a free ticket to the museum, so that was cool.
The museum has neat stuff. It’s very run-down and dirty; I was sneezy and some of the cooler buildings were very smelly. We’ve been in a lot of museums lately and this was both the most expensive and the least well-kept, which is too bad, because the stuff is cool. There are people restoring things and I hope that’s where the money’s going and it gets better.
After we had been gone for more than 24 hours I received a message from Mary implying that I’m a bad parent and my child is a liar. Remember, there was a dog loose Mary was calling for the day we arrived. No one said anything while we were there, because I believe it didn’t happen the way she says. We have been traveling most of this school year. We’ve been in campgrounds ranging from National Parks to Disney; basic to fancy. Through 22 states no one has accused us of not cleaning up after ourselves. We are diligent about it because I highly dislike it in others.
ScoutStayed here a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised. Many kid activities with even a Saturday movie night the park put on for the kids. You will not find better service anywhere. Also, next to a golf course that you can literally walk to from your site to play if you like this sort of thing. If you run low on wood, just simply call up to the office and they will bring you more. Will be back there very soon.
ScoutThe camp hostess was friendly and helpful. The campgrounds were quiet and well shaded. The bathrooms were old, but clean. No regrets at all staying there for the night. Don’t miss the Harold Warp Pioneer Village Museum while you’re there.
GuideAfter traveling all day it was nice meeting a happy face and great customer service. Sites are long but thin and we were able to stay hooked up for the next day travel. Pool was nice and refreshing.
TravelerNew owners as of Jan 2023! Super nice people! Bathrooms are in great condition, nice large area to walk your dog around to potty, very conveniently off I80 but not annoyingly loud from Highway.
ScoutClean and friendly campground. Very clean bathrooms. Surrounded by cornfields.
GuideGreat tent camping. An oasis in Nebraska. A lot of amenities including swimming pool. Very clean & well appointed bath house.
TravelerThis KOA Campground was very pleasant, and the pizza with wings tasted great! Staff member brought our food to our campsite. The staff were friendly, helpful, and informative. Definitely recommended! Our campsite was clean. The shower house was clean, and there was plenty of hot water.
GuideAfter a day of driving check in was easy. Loved the pool. It was clean. Showers were clean. You can order a pizza in the office. The two ladies working we’re awesome and even delivered the fresh cooked pizza to our site. Lots of activities for kids. Playground, bikes, basketball, pool. Some sites had trees. Mine did not but we were close to dog run.
ScoutDONT GO HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET SCREAMED AT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT FOR SNEEZING!!! No joke!!! Very sweet owners, when taking your money. But when my youngest son ran a fever of 104 shortly after we got there at 8:00 p.m., and we had to take him to the ER, the owners actually came out of their house at midnight and yelled at us for "slamming our car door". I tried to apologize and explain the situation the next morning and there was no empathy what so ever! In stead, we got blamed for "making a huge mess in their public restroom". WE WERENT EVEN THERE LONG ENOUGH TO USE THEIR RESTROOM, NOR WOULD WE HAVE AS WE HAVE OUR OWN IN OUR MOTORHOME!!! Just weary travelers trying to get some rest. Not loud, obnoxious, didn't even sit at the picnic table. Didn't have time before we were run out. FOR SURE, two elderly people who SHOULD NOT be in business running a customer service establishment!!! If you want my advice, KEEP DRIVING!!!
TravelerThis campsite has lots almost on top of one another. There is hardly any room to set up your tent. Adjacent campsites are so close together you can hear everyone's conversation.
On a positive note the pool and bathroom amenities were kept up.
LegendWe stayed here in June. The tent sites are very close in proximity- your conversation quickly becomes your neighbors conversation. Tent sites are pull-up which is convenient. There are RVs behind and away from the tent sites (mostly RVs here with about 10 tent sites). We met some great tent neighbors & had nice conversation. One tent neighbor was extremely disruptive (left their dog tied up crying at the site- did not give the dog water the whole time they were there which was 12 hours- It was sad- they were also all around loud and inconsiderate). Other than those neighbors all was good. Laundry on site so bring quarters. Showers are clean enough. Bathrooms are a close walk to tent sites. Not much at the camp store (they were out of a lot of stuff their site says they have & we're not making food either), but they did get an ice delivery when we were there which was helpful. We planned to cook at our site anyway- but it was inconvenient for some families relying on their pizza for dinner. Great sunset views over the cornfield from the tent sites !!!
ScoutReally is an oasis ! Owners are so kind, campground is immaculate- can’t recommend more :)
ScoutStayed here for 2 weeks with “Year to Volunteer “. 2 weeks working on the RV park and inside museum grounds. Check out their YouTube channel. Cleaned and updated what we could. It is a safe area and charming town. Pay at Museum. Motel is closed. They have 8 full sites. 30, 30 amp, water sites. Mature shade tree
GuideOlder park with new owners. Convenient to hwy 80, Waco Nebraska. That means some hwy noise but it’s Nebraska, it’s flat! No jake brake noise. Besides we now wear ear plugs to bed so not an issue (try it, you’ll like it.) This place has all kinds of activities for kids young and old(er). Arcade, pool ( being repaired at time of review, it’s too cool now to think of swimming), corn hole toss game, miniature golf or just rocking on one of the many swinging chairs. Our site was ample, gravel pad and grass, fire ring, table and swing. Everything worked ( other than pool) even Wi-Fi, it worked well! That’s enough to bring me back. A few more of the new owners upgrades and repairs and this place could be a five star.
RangerI really enjoyed my stay at Prairie Oasis. The hosts were very helpful and friendly. The grounds were beautiful. There is a small pond on the property. Lots of nice places for go for a walk. The sites were large and easy to pull through. I had good service with Verizon and the wifi was solid. Easy access off the highway. Nice little shop with local products. The bathrooms were clean with nice hot showers.
GuideThe staff is incredible! Super friendly and accommodating! The full hookups were great. Nice little dog park, putt putt golf and a good size pool.
TravelerThis campground is now CLOSED for the 2021 season.
Today is October 16.

There is not an option for tent camping, van camping, or anything but RVs. The owner was kind, but explained that he has not allowed tent camping for two years.
GuideThe site is very clean and well kept up. There are things to do, like hang out by the pond, hot shoes, volleyball. The internet looks fast. Most importantly. The owners were very friendly and went beyond the extra mile.
