Best Campgrounds near McCook, NE

Small but beautiful very nice quiet relaxation everybody keeps to themselves

Beautiful quiet windbreak tree line beautiful skies beautiful sounds beautiful military memorial you got the train rolls through but this place is so beautiful that train don't even bother you

Sites with either electric or not. The electric sites were fairly full (note these are located near the highway) I went for the primitive. Not overly maintained. Some sites were hard to see. There are pit toilets, but from the primitives it is several hundred yards away. Down in the primitive there were no other campers.

Stayed one night in a tent. Was able to find a site tucked in the trees that felt separate from the other campsites and it was perfect! Had a range of sites from primitive (picnic table and fire ring) to full hook up. Huge, busy campground but not overwhelming—there’s enough space to accommodate. Verizon works great.

I've been here twice now. Once in July and now at the very end of Oct. Better in Oct. No ticks or bugs and frankly of all the camping locations, there is a number of different choices, I had my section to myself. This place has swimming, a small hike, your choice of camping location, a frisbee golf course and miles one could hike or bike. I think it is kind of a jewel in the Kansas system.

Good place to speaks the day and night, $12 for out of state $6 for local. My advice park closer to the lake , less road noise.

Excellent for large RV’s. Pull thru sites with full hookups and overlooking Norton reservoir

Bathrooms need work or at least someone that cleans them at least daily. The park is nice but the bathrooms are embarrassing 26 dollars a night

Camping for anyone arriving at anytime. Don’t expect the best when arriving late, but most of you will have reservations, right? Then you will have the best. (Pause; Coyotes calling) this place has everything for any State Park you could ask. Expansive open grasslands a lake full of fish and fowl. Turkeys and whitetail deer and the coyotes call in the distance. A photographer could get lost in the pure wilderness available in the prairie. I’ve visited here during every season. The heat and bugs of mid July to the frozen autumn morings, always beautiful and teaming with wildlife. A great place to stay no matter your style. Just please be quiet, Mother Nature is listening.

We stayed in Prairie Dog State Park for one night on our way back home from Colorado and were pleasantly surprised with what a nice park this was. We stayed in a primitive site. The sites were spacious and had a wonderful shelter! The vault toilet, however didnt look like it had been swept in awhile as it had a LOT of bug carcasses. But otherwise a nice place to stay. Something for everyone, tents, RVs, campers. Beautiful views!

Great little campground in small town America. Run by the Lions Club, they’ve done a great job.

No reservations. Just take a vacant spot and head over to the convenience store. Some sites more shaded than others.

WiFi is great, but herewith ATT. 32 down, 3 up T-Mobile 5G 79 down, 15.3 up Visible: 11 down. 17 up

But not near the water and no water view

Shaded RV spots with hookups. Good swimming

The sites are tiny and made for RVs. There is no exclusive tent or primitive camping area. The reservoir is primarily used by jet skis and a few power boats. You can swim, but the water is murky brown.

Super clean bathrooms (no sinks but do have hand sanitizer) easy lake/reservoir access. Nice fire pits, well kept sites, swings for kids, pet friendly !

This evening, my husband and I are camped out on the beach at Champion Lake in Enders State Recreation Area, Nebraska. 

We chose the campground at the left of the major Reservoir campground, which is the Dam Campground. It has 2 sections to it. You can actually camp on the beach at this one, but it is primitive camping. $10 a night. There is a dump station, and a potable water pump. 

Permits are required, but your money envelope (deposit receipt) is your permit, if you are not local. We are staying 2 nights. 

Oh yes . The golfing. Well, there is a golf course across the road from the campground. I didn't get to check it out, but you can, if you are interested. I'll update if I can. Internet isn't that great on Verizon here.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay here we will be back. Find a spot close to water
