"This is unlike any other campground in Nebraska. There are plenty of camping sites around the park no matter your style, even spots for horses! I prefer the hike in spots myself."
"Campsites are very green and there are a lot of hiking trails!
It's just that, well, it is in Nebraska."
$30 / night
"When we went they were resurfacing the road all the way down to the cave so if you wanted to see the Indian Cave it was about a 2mile hike, which we didn’t mind, aside from the Nebraska, August heat!"
"The camping spots that are the walk up sites are amazing - you can do sites surrounded by trees and private, or ones near the playground. All great sizes and partially shaded."
"We were in Site 2 and enjoyed the plush green scenery around us! Aside from a vegetable garden, there is a beautiful garden of flowers and plants that you can walk through. It smells so nice!"
"This year is an Outage shut down so the Campsite and others around the plant is very minimal. You need to call if anything is open for your stay."
"It is close to the highway and you can certainly hear it but it didn’t bother me, it’s kinda handy to have a place close to the highway when you’re just stopping for the night."
"This site is $0 is nice quite area right off main highway camp sites are first come first serve"
"Was confused at first because there was a private road sign near the turn off, but after some looking it does look like it’s a legit spot to camp. Good enough for a place to lay your head at least."
"There seems to be some private RV camping nearby which I was unsure about but they never came and bothered me."
"Probably around 7-8 total sites. 30 amp and 50 Amp. Nice level gravel, shaded lots. Only two campers here tonight."
$27 / night
"This park is a beautiful lake. We saw white pelicans and blue herons on this visit but it is not uncommon to see hawks, owls, and eagles in the area."
"Lots of sites but majority are on top of the hill away from the water."
$20 / night
"Lots of things to do around town. Site will accommodate any rig. 30/ 50 amp electric. Rate has increased to $20 per night. Tent camping available"
"Coming from MO, Nebraska is usually just a one night stop for us (as we head onto bigger and cooler states). We were happy to find this clean RV park near Nebraska City. Big, but quiet."
"Centrally located and walkable. There is a small lake close by that we walked the dogs too. Also 20 minute bike ride to GSR Casino. I appreciated the free filtered water dispenser in the office."
ScoutWhat a great rural campground The owner was fantastic to deal with. Very quiet and peaceful, a true little gem.
Scout$5 for a tent, water, shower and electricity to recharge devices. Perfect amenities for bikepacking.
TravelerNice little camp spots. No amenities available. But there are actually two locations to camp there are multiple camp spots near the entrance, and also more if you drive down to the boat ramp, there are a few around there also.

Good enough for a place to lay your head at least. I used a pickup truck with a tent and nobody bothered me. I did hear animals huffing and saw some shadows run next to the truck at like 2am haha.

GuideA good spot if you are not interested in a busy campground. This is a beautiful wooded conservation area. Some of the sites to the front of the property are pretty standard and more open with some metal fire pits and tables. We stayed at camp area 3 which is way more wooded and deep inside the conservation area with access to the river right on the site. This site did not have a metal fire ring or table but there was a rock ring. One problem I did find was that GPS directions wanted us to take access roads through the conservation area to get to the spot but some of them were closed so we had to take an alternate route in by going around the area. We just stayed for 1 night but did not see another person the entire time we were there.
TravelerHad a great night here, the area is beautiful. Had to stop to admire the corn fields in the sunrise on the way out. Owner is lovely and kind. Electrical amenities are prime for anyone with an RV, but as a tent camper, I enjoyed our stay!
TravelerWe stayed here so that we would be within walking distance of Brownville. It took a while to figure out how to make a reservation (you call the River Inn Resort). When I made the reservation, I was told there is no electricity, which is fine since we have solar. However, we were not told there are no tables, or fire rings... there pretty much isn't anything other than land. The land that is there is pretty rough as well. There were very large burs of some sort throughout the grassy areas, which made it difficult for our dog to go anywhere during our trip. There were also an unbelievable amount of gnats, but that is probably due to the proximity to the river. The people at the River Inn Resort, where you check in, were friendly and helpful. However, we would not stay here again.
ScoutWe stayed the first week in October. We were the only campers in the campground. We found 30 and 50 amp power pedestals. We stayed beside a pavilion with a water hydrant. The pavilion has several picnic tables and 20 amp outlets. It's in a treed area with a nice playground. The whole area is very flat. Leveling was a breeze. The entrance was a little bit confusing. There is a pay box at the edge of the parking box. The bathrooms were locked, but being self contained, we wouldn't have used them. I'm sure we will be staying here again.
