      West Omaha / NE Lincoln KOA Holiday

      Great place for kids

      Probably a better place if you have kids.  We did camp with someone else and we were able to get buddy sites so we opened onto the same lawn area.  Gravel pull through sites in that area.  Overall the sites are a little close together, but the area seems well kept.   There is a supply store if you need something and I think they had pizza, ice cream etc.   It was a convenient location for us to get into Omaha for an ironman.   I prefer state park kind of locations but if you want a pool and kid play ground etc. this is a good choice.   They also did have an activity schedule- so for people who want this type of stuff this could be a 5 star.

      Eugene T. Mahoney State Park Campground

      August 31, 2026

      Little Creek section site 42, August 31, 2026, 85 degrees at 7pm. Pad was asphalt and level, good angle for backing in. 20/30amp, T-Mobile 5G was great. Green grass everywhere, we saw deer , squirrels and turkeys. CG was empty, showers and toilets are in the same building, older but nice.

      All of the sites were paved and level, the grass may not be level and the tables and pits were fine.

      Some noise at night from the highway, but the frogs, crickets and peepers were louder than the road noise. Loud trains at night.

      Trash and water spigot were close to site. All of the ADA compatible campsites were brand new concrete very nice

      Riverside Campground — Two Rivers SRA

      Good, but could get crowded

      Campsites are grassy and mostly level, though there were a few that had standing water from a thunderstorm earlier that morning. There is not any privacy between campsites and sites are right next to each other. We were lucky to come on a weekend that wasn’t very busy, and I could easily see this campsite get very crowded around holidays. The pit toilets needed a good clean, but other facilities seem maintained.

      Camp A Way Campground

      Easy access to downtown

      We stayed here to attend a Savannah baseball game at Memorial stadium. We really enjoyed the campground with the amenities. Sites have a good size for grass, plenty of room for vehicle, and shaded in many areas. We used Uber to get to and from the stadium and was a cheaper price than parking fees.

      Eugene T. Mahoney State Park Campground

      So much to offer!

      This park offers something for everyone! Although the campsites are average this big beautiful park makes up for it in other ways. From the aquatic park, to the stables, hiking and biking trails, a small marina with fishing and paddle boats, and a nature center, you won’t have to leave to be entertained. Recommend staying at the lakeside campground for better views.

      Lake Wanahoo State Recreation Area

      great views

      We were skeptical about this place but for the most part it was ok. Beautiful sites along the lake. No one there when we got there and no maps to know where to go. Took a while but found the site we had reserved online. Were disappointed by the road noise- there is a major road going down other side of lake and nothing to block the noise. Also no star gazing here as the area across the lake has lots of very bright lights. We went to the toilets and found the vault toilets with just sanitizer and someone else said, but we had also read there was a shower house. Walked around trying to find it (a map would have helped!). Could not find it but luckily there was a person outside there camper that we asked (the place was practically deserted) and they pointed it out to us. Luckily it was only a slightly longer walk than the vaulted toilets. Showers have to be paid for and timed. No hot water in sink, not much place to put towel or toiletries. 4 family rooms. Noticed they were never cleaned while we were there- dirty and bugs.

      Lake Wanahoo State Recreation Area

      Awful experience

      This is by far the worst place to go camping. First off the restrooms have no running water or soap to wash your hands. Only hand sanitizer hung on the wall. No swimming beach for kids. The worker they had was on his high horse for sure gave a lecture and repeated his self. Complained about how we parked said could not back in. I have never had this experience anywhere else. He was so rude would never return. Worst experience we had in long time.  Don't go nothing to do for family. Branch oak lake way more fun. And they have showers and running water and soap. Oh they did have a shower house but closed but that is only for campers. Not sure what I'm there. So maybe they have soap but for day visits no running water or soap. They do have pump water. What turned us off the most was the rude kid young adult working very rude like he on a power trip. Very disappointed.

      The Wilds RV/Trailer Resort, LOT 5

      Everything you need

      Really nice site that had everything we needed. Including all the hook ups. Great views of the Missouri river even from the fire pit and closer places to sit and appreciate beautiful sunset views. It’s awesome how you can get so close to the river there. There was also a covered table we were able to eat at and enjoy. It’s close to an area where you can put in at if you have a boat. You can also fish from the site itself. Such a nice place to wind down in nature. Thanks for a great time!

      Double Nickel Campground

      Amazing

      Very friendly & helpful lady, guided Us to Our site and spotted Us on it. That was after She gave Us a free upgrade, discount, and took several of Our calls. After having a really terrible day She gave a breath of encouragement back into Us. It looked like all the sites were pull through's, had fire pit (saw her delivering wood), never saw this before (each site has a porch swing). It is clean and taken care of nicely. It is most definitely a place to stay at.
