  Niobrara State Park Campground

  Very nice Spectacular views

  Updated shower and toilets. Bring your quarters for shower. Views of the Missouri River were amazing. Enjoyed a hike with the interpreter. Worth a stop for sure.

  Calm and Peaceful

  Level blacktop sites. Flat campground. Fishing, playground, nice dump station. High tree canopy, large old growth trees. Aluminum picnic tables. Commercial fire rings (not an old truck wheel). Very nice, would camp here again.

  Wildwood Acres Park

  Jake brakers spoil the stay.

  I would have given this nice little campground a 3-star rating, but I felt the 8 foot pads were a little bit too small. To be fair, they have placed a handful of larger pads throughout, but it would be insanely cramped for larger units to maneuver and even turn their rigs around. $15.00 per night for campers. $10.00 a night for tents. Cabins ran $35.00 a night. They did have a men's and women's toilet building (flush or hole?) the building was locked, and we couldn't use it. They have 30 amp electric, 1 location to obtain water (communal water spigot), 1 picnic table per site, and garbage buckets provided for nearly all sites. Oak trees provide shade from the sun. One has to look up, though. we saw several locations where larger dead and broken branches were just hanging on by a thread. They have 2 cabins that are available. The entire campground is an easy stones throw from the city swimming pool. There are 2 large picnic pavillions, and electricity is provided. Walking trails are available (we did not walk on them this trip). There is a lazy little creek that meanders around the outskirts of the campgrounds. Playground equipment in 3 locations for the kids. Large fields for others playing around. We didn't need a dump site, and I'm sorry, I didn't think to look to see if they had one. They may have one, and I think I would have noticed it if they had, but take this with a grain of salt. Town is just down the road a half mile or so, and most needs can be met there. Finally, I have to mention the highway ¼ mile away. Heavy semi traffic. Campgrounds are located at the bottom of a hill. Those semi's blast those Jake brakes. Over and over again. 2 days of that, and we left early and drove to a new campground. Enough was enough.

  Burbach Park

  Pretty quiet park

  This was a very easy safe spot to spend the night. New sign states $10/night, second night is free. Unfortunately, I could not figure out where the city office is. According to Google it is in the corner of the park, but that looked like a shit down old car shop. Would have loved to pay since they provided electric hookups!

  The previous listing that says it's by a lake is wrong, that is "Burbach Campground" this is "Burbach Park".

  The camping pad can be a bit hard to see, it was covered in leaves when I got there so I didn't see it at first, but it is right at the gps location on the listing.

  Yankton — Lewis And Clark Recreation Area

  Perfect for families with kids!

  We love coming to Lewis and Clark Recreation Area because it's clean and perfect for families! Clean beach, spacious spots for our 35' camper, and nice bathrooms and parks! Hiking options, clean water for swimming, beautiful dark skies with lots of stars. What's better?

  Niobrara State Park Campground

  Great time and very clean!

  Niobrara State Park is fantastic. Very clean and put together. Everything is mowed well. Paved camper lots. Little park for kids. Horseshoes and sand volleyball. Bathrooms were cleaned everyday. My only complaint is that the lots are kind of close. Not a huge deal but would have been nice to have a little extra space. Overall, awesome place and we will be back!

  Chief White Crane Recreation Area

  Perfect for families

  Our family liked this place so much that we actually changed our itinerary to stay an extra night. The kids and pets especially enjoyed it! There is a huge green space in the middle of the campground, and all around the campground are several fantastic playgrounds as well as a small beach and a dock. The sites didn't have full hookups but that worked fine for us because we snagged two sites right next to the water and bathroom/showers (and the playground!) The showers were much nicer than we expected for a state park. Lots of kids and families around, everyone was friendly and considerate. The sites were on the small side but since the price was reasonable for the amenities we didn't mind reserving two.

  Burbach Park

  Family Oriented

  Well maintained campgrounds. Good shade with a good view of the lake. Water is close. Spacious campsites. There are tent and RV sites with hook ups. Some are first come first serve and some are reservable. Well stocked camp store with friendly staff.
  There are showers but you pay for them, bring your quarters. It is pretty open between sites

  Pierson Ranch Recreation Area

  Hot and humid

  I evidently chose the one site that has no daytime shade. There was shade early and late, but nothing in the middle of the day. Crews were pruning a lot of dead branches in the park as well. Access to water was not convenient unless you drove.
  Most campers showed up in the evening. Campground was about 75% full by nightfall. Just up the road in Lewis and Clark SP. I drove through and it was pretty full. All sites are electric. Fairly close together. Free showers were great to rinse off sweat from heat and humidity. Oh yes - Fireflies!!

  Gavin's area

  Loved the location and very quiet. We had been told the pads weren't level, but ours was fine.
  Large black walnut trees, beware in autumn of falling walnuts. Woke up several times to loud thuds as walnuts hit roof.

  Great Spot!

  All around beautiful place. We had a great camping experience this summer. The grounds were clean, beautiful scenery, pet friendly and fun hiking trails! There's a lot of really cool cabins to choose from and the tent camping areas are in great locations scattered around the park. Definitely for the 3 hour drive up there.

  Burbach Park

  Small Town Living

  First night is FREE

  Additional days will be $8.00 with a maximum of 7 days 

  20 amp service 

  Flush toilets Showers Drinking water Playground Basket ball goal Gazebo Pavilion Watchman light 

  Burbach Park is a little gem that we kind of stumbled onto. Crofton is a sweet small town and you can feel very safe taking a stroll. While you are in town make sure you visit the local business as a thank you for the nice little stop. 

  The parking pad could use a bit of mowing as it is a grass and dirt pad. There are electric hookups for two rv’s. The parking area could hold a midsize RV. 

  The park is right downtown just past the main street with houses on one side of the street. There are several mature trees with a nice grass lawn. An amazing memorial for their hero’s from throughout the military conflicts. It is worth the visit to small downtown to see how proud they are of their hero’s. Crofton is settled between prairie farmland and the beautiful Lewis and Clark Lake. Crofton is a great destination if you are seeking fishing, hunting, boating, hiking and so much more. I didn’t even bring up the winter activities. Visiting a city park will open your eyes to small town living. If you are lucky to find a city park in small town Nebraska it is generally a town that is proud of what they have to offer. Some parks are free or charge a very small fee. Stop and spend some time getting to know the folks of Crofton

  Niobrara State Park Campground

  Tree shade and spacious back in.

  Nice camping for extended stay of 14 days. Different length back in sites with picnic table and fire ring with grill. Camp host available. Handicap pad sites. I would have given a five star except for the cost!

  We think $30/day for just electric is expensive but we’d been boon docking so we sprung for the expense for 3 nights. Showers are extra😳. Laundry available.

  Little town of Niobrara, just a few miles away has limited shopping but a nice little grocery store, hardware store, museum, and fuel.

  Confluence of the Missouri and Niobrara Rivers.

  Nebraska State Parks have walk up and reservable spaces. We usually risk it and easily found a walk up on a Monday afternoon after the weekend crowd left.

  We stayed in the RV campground but took a bike ride around the rest of the park. We stopped at the park office and chatted with assistant superintendent Nate. Very nice guy with lots of good info.. He told us about a nice loop we could continue our bike ride and we went around the picnic and tent area. Some incredible exclusive sites and great views of the Niobrara.

  Niobrara State Park Campground

  Beautiful campground

  This campground is so nice. Electric hookup only, but full and dump station is close and nicely laid out. Campsites have lots of trees. It was quiet and peaceful. There are trails to hike and sites to see nearby. There is not a place to get diesel nearby, so plan for that if you need too. Sportsmen’s Bar & Two Rivers Hotel is a nice place to eat that’s nearby. No fuss, good food. There are however, a tremendous amount of ticks. If you bring pets, you may think about them not joining you on hikes.

  This is a nice, quiet campground. We enjoyed river fishing while we were here. There is a swimming beach just a short drive away too. Some lots are nice sized. Others seemed a little tight. They are electric only.

  Weigand

  Lewis & Clark Lake State Recreation Area

  The NE State Park hosts the Weigand and Burbach campground and cabins and can be booked through reserveamerica.com. The campground gets most of its crowd in the summer months, however the cabins can be booked year around. The campground and cabins are very close to the water. The dock and the store and another campground area are near the entrance to the park. The park facilities are neat and the staff is very helpful. Lots of fishing opportunities on the other side of the dam. We have stayed here multiple times and this place is very scenic, both in the summer and winter. You have deers grazing right by after sundown. Bird lovers have plenty of song birds nesting in the cottonwood trees.

  First Timers

  We just got our pop up and took it out to Chief White Crane. The spots were pretty large and very clean. We have two small children and the open space was great for them. The bathrooms were always clean and the park was great for the kiddos!
