Sterling RV Park
Be the first to review!Sterling, Colorado3 PhotosWe are located in Sterling, CO on Highway 14 just 2 miles west of Walmart. This RV park was designed to be trouble free even in the winter months. The water hydrants are heated from the tip to 4 ft deep in the ground. The electrical pedestals have 50, 30 and 20 amp electrical service and of course, sewer hookups at each site. Each site is 32’ wide so there is plenty of room for big rigs, slide-outs and room to relax.We have 6 back in and 6 pull through spots to choose from. All of our RV spaces are level and clean with a gravel base.

Oregon Trail RV Campground
Lewellen, Nebraska7 Reviews42 Photos12 Saves12 RV spots, 30' x 70' pull through, with full hook ups and shade trees in an open hay field. Each space has a choice of 50AMP, 30 AMP, or 20AMP to plug into so no adapters are needed. Water faucets are shared by 2 sites and T’s are provided for simultaneous use. There are also picnic tables that people just move around so feel free to grab one.
The campground is mowed about every 10 days. Pets welcome and need to be on a leash if outside and cleaned up after.
We now have 1 working restroom and shower! Laundry is next! 🤗
Call Luke for the access code to the shower trailer.
If you call and he doesn't answer make sure to leave him a message or text and he will call you back asap.
The Cafe no longer takes reservations or payments for the RV Park because they are owned by different individuals now but the new owners of both are very friendly with each other and the Cafe has really good food, essentials, liquor and gasoline, groceries, etc.
You can call the number 970-978-8186 with questions. To register a site, book online and then pay online with a card or you can drop cash/check in the safe by the American flag. You must call 970-978-8186 to see which spaces are available and get the code to use the shower/restroom/laundry
The highway traffic dies down to nothing at night but the train still goes by frequently. At the campground there are lots of various birds to watch and rabbits as well. Deer can be seen usually in the early morning or at twilight as well as wild turkeys, pheasants and migrating water fowl. Families can take a short walk to the convenience store for ice cream or something to drink. The store has drinks, essentials, alcohol and a cafe with good food.
If you get a chance to eat at the Tiger's Den Senior Center while you are here, please do! It is on the west side of town in the old 1 story high school. It is a non profit that is run by Garnet.
There is so much to do in this Area and so much history!
-Lewellen has an outdoor public pool that is free to use from 11:00am - 4:00pm
-Lake McConaughy is only 12 miles away and has white sand beaches all around. It can get pretty packed and crazy but its also a lot of fun. We like to stay here to get away from the crowds but still enjoy the lake.
- The town of Lewellen has a lot of history as well and:
- 3 churches; Lutheran, Methodist and Wesleyan.
- The Tiger's Den - great food & price.
- Most Unlikely Place has art food & coffee
-Ash Hollow is where Pioneers would stay the night when on the Oregon Trail and is 2 mikes south of us. They have a museum and activities all summer.
- Windlass Hill where they would lock out the wagon's wheels and slide it down the hill leaving deep ruts in the mud that are still visible today.
- This is also the area where the Mormons split from everyone else deciding not to cross the river.
-Boot Hill is a famous name for cemeteries in the west. Many towns called their cemetery Boot Hill because it is where gunfighters who died with their boots on were buried. Boot hill cemetery is nearby.
-The battle of Blue Water/Battle of Ash Hollow. Sioux tribe members come here annually to commemorate the Battle of Ash Hollow.
-The Sand Hill Crane, Blue Crane Heron and many other birds migrate through this area every spring and if you are a bird watcher you will see many birds here that are not commonly seen elsewhere. Sometimes even a pelican!
-The Garden County Fair is held here in Lewellen; the first weekend of August and everyone shows up for it, you should too!
-Hunting in this area is excellent year round for white tail deer, mule deer, goose, duck, etc, a little north of us you can find antelope and elk.
-Fishing as well. Lake McConaughy is one of Nebraska’s largest lakes and many record setting fish have been caught in the area, the North Platte River is a block away from the RV park as well. There are a lot of Walleye and catfish, with the walleye circuit here starting as early as March.
The neighboring town of Osh Kosh has a coffee shop where the local owners have 100% Kona coffee beans and Kona blends. They grow in Hawaii and roast in NE. Mark Ferrari Coffee just 2 blocks off the highway and Main Street.
Ogallala has several cowboy related things to see and is full of history, including a cowboy museum.
We are close to everything yet far enough out to avoid the crowds.

Oliver Reservoir State Recreation Area
Large, beautiful, and affordable campground with water access... but with limitations
Huge campground with countless beautiful sites. Even if you arrive after sunset, you will definitely find a very nice spot here. The camp host is super nice and friendly. She invited us to go kayaking on the lake, lent us all the equipment for free, and we had a wonderful time with her.
It could really be the perfect campground... but there are two issues to consider:
- As others have mentioned, freight trains run regularly across from the campground and are incredibly loud. So definitely sleep with earplugs!
- The restrooms are swarming with flies. I've never seen so many—each restroom has 50-100 flies. It's a shame because this problem could be easily managed.
Still, 5/5, as everything else here is truly more than perfect.
Pony Express Park Chappell
One of my favorite spots is no longer free
I stopped by after having discovered this free spot last year but they are now charging $15 a day, which is not worth it. I would have rather planned to drive farther into Wyoming to get one of the free spots. I understand why the town started charging a fee but it’s sad nonetheless.
Pony Express Park Chappell
trashy and now 45 dollars
we left it was scary
Pony Express RV Park
Nice free place for car camping
Nice place and easy to get to, visiter center close by.
Oliver Reservoir State Recreation Area
Clean campground donation fee accepted
Very nicely run campground and wonderful host. All sites easy walk to or on Reservoir. Trains seemed to whistle through across highway at least 1x every hour until late at night. 🙄 clean bathrooms. Lots of grass area. Locals with their water toys made for happy campers all around. Stayed one nite 6/14/24
Sterling RV Park - The Landing
2 says rest from traveling
It's a new RV park. It was very well kept up and clean. The downtown Sterling was nice. Jane was very helpful with directions and things to do and see. Jane was wonderful in helping us to stay for 2 nights. You're the bomb, Jane, as my kids would say.
Oliver Reservoir State Recreation Area
great find traveling across NE
Really nice spot with free camping, donations accepted. Run as if a paid campground and lots of overflow space where there were RVs. We got the last site (#35) on a busy holiday weekend, so happy about that as it was getting dark soon!
Picnic tables and firepits with grate for cooking provided. Was able to find kindling in the trees around.
Bathrooms were pretty nice.
Would definitely recommend.
North Sterling State Park Campground
Clean Campgrounds
Went last July and the campsites were clean and well maintained. Firewood & other amenities are provided as well on the other side of the lake, super convenient! Only complaint was there were so many bugs at night in the morning.
Pony Express Park Chappell
No longer free
Stop by to rest and it’s now 15 dollars to stay. City passed 4/24
North Sterling State Park Campground
Wind and Sandburs
There are bathrooms with plumbing and vault toilets. All of the leantos are set up so there is no view of the lake. My dog kept getting sanburs in her paws because they were everywhere. This is a one night place. $36 to camp
I was pummled by the wind when it was fron the north and south. The water is not individual hook up it is shared with the campsites around you.
At 8a the ranger was banging in my door to explain the water situatuon since I had hooked directly up to it. There were no other campers at the site but she felt it critical that I unhook my hose. The ranger from the previous day and campsite host never seemed to care.
Pony Express Park Chappell
This was a great spot!
We just stopped for the night, but this spot was perfect! We loved the lake and the little town right by!
Cabela's RV Park & Campground
Great overnight spot
Full hookups for $45. Clean facilities and well maintained grounds. Sprinklers turn on at 9:30 so don't leave anything out. Dog friendly but wish they had a fenced in area for them to run off leash.
North Sterling State Park Campground
Beautiful and Open
Very nice RV site with nice pull through spots! We booked a couple weeks ago and still ended up with a wonderful location! All of the sites we noticed had a lot of room so you didn’t feel like you were on top of each other. Great place for short hike with young kids. Lastly, amazing sunsets!
Pony Express Park Chappell
Peaceful free spot right off the interstate
This is a great location off of I80 if you don’t need any amenities. I boondock often so this was a perfect place for me to sleep at. Cell signal was excellent and let me work remotely. It’s quiet and I’m pretty sure I was the only person there at night. There are bathrooms if you need it. Highly recommend if you need a beautiful free spot!
Cabela's RV Park & Campground
Not Bad For Nebraska
Pros:
- solid showers
- great laundry room
- well priced full hookup
Cons
- lack of nature and privacy
Pony Express RV Park
It was a nice place to stay for a night.
We had a travel day and needed to have full hookups. They delivered. Internet was no problem.
North Sterling State Park Campground
Great Campsite
Great location. Excellent facilities. Indoor picnic tables - useful if you’re on a bike and it’s raining. All sites have electric. Quiet and peaceful. Highly recommended
McGreer Camper Park
Great Campsite
As one of the other reviews says - not the most picturesque location, being right by the interstate, but the owner was super nice and helpful. Great facilities. Use of indoor lounge area, with basic cooking facilities. Discount for cash. Highly recommended.
Cabela's RV Park & Campground
Cabela's Sydney, NE Campground
Well maintained grounds, restrooms and showers are clean and easy to access. Unfortunately there are trees but none are mature enough to provide adequate shading. Gas and convenience , shopping, and food located close by. Cabela's Sydney store is across the parking lot with plenty of things to browse for. Easy on and off I-80 access for RVs, vans, and tent campers with a nice playground for the kids and running room for your pets. Easy access horse Corral 🐎 for the equestrian motivated individuals. Overall when the trees mature to provide shade this will be a 10 for passing through and short stay campers. There aren't any sewage hookups but it does have a black and Grey water dump. Electrical rv hookups are in each spot and there's plenty of green grace to go around.
Oliver Reservoir State Recreation Area
Nearby train tracks
Really easy campsite off of I-80. Easy to navigate in the dark and flat dirt roads (Masada CX-5). The lake is a hot spot for many different birds and a beaver so no shortage of wildlife. The trains kept me awake until 10:30 and started again at 6am. The campsites that I saw all have picnic tables, fire pits, and BBQ. I felt very safe as a solo female.
The wildlife make dealing with the train worth it, would stay again.
HWY 26 Campground
Just what you need
Nothing fancy but has all the amenities . Power, sewer and winter water. Trash was across the street. No one was onsite and the telephone number was missing numbers but there is a drop box for payment. We stopped to refresh our camper before heading into snow and we were very happy to find all amenities right there.
Pony Express Park Chappell
Great free spot
Awesome little spot on a lake. Distant train noise is a minor down side, all the thistle your dog will get into is bigger. Clerk at a nearby by Gas station said "you can stay there free for up to three nights."
Cabela's RV Park & Campground
Good for a Couple of Days
This campground rating is based on a short-term stay versus destination. The Cabela's RV Park& Campground(CG) was easy to find and we arrived early in the afternoon. As this is a first-come-first-serve CG, we drove through until we found a site (19 with FHUs) we liked. As Cabela’s Club members we got a 20% discount so we walked over to Cabela’s and paid for our site in a regular checkout line. You can also pay by credit card, cash, or check at the little unmanned office on the backside of the restrooms, showers, and laundry building. The laundry room was very clean and very reasonably priced with four washers and four dryers. Along with the majority of the sites being FHU, there are also electric-only and tent sites. They have cable but it’s pretty much the same as the OTA channels. There’s WiFi and we got 4 bars on Verizon and T-Mobile. You are near the interstate so there is some road noise, but not as bad as expected. This is a great CG for a couple of days' stay.
Chimney Rock Pioneer Crossing
Beautiful and quiet
I arrived late last night to chimney rock completely lit up. Very beautiful. Spots are fairly small but quiet. Frequent train, if that bothers you. Nice easy to hook up and pull through spot.
Cabela's RV Park & Campground
Overnights only
One of the few campgrounds in the area. Nice that it’s near gas, food and shopping. Limited full huckup, lots are electric only.
Buffalo Hills Campground & RV Park
If you must to stop, it’s adequate.
Stayed one night, I would not stay again. Grateful we had a place to hook up and rest but this park is extremely neglected and run down.
Chimney Rock Pioneer Crossing
Wow!
We had a wonderful stay here. My husband had never seen Chimney Rock, and I had never seen Chimney Rock lit up at night. All I have to say is Wow! Mosquitoes are hungry here! Be prepared for that. The owner and his wife are so nice, ice cream is great! Quick drive to see Chimney Rock closer and a few trails to hike if you like. Visitors Center is 2 min away. We got groceries in Bridgeport. Nice town with a big gas station with diesel and def. We would stay here again. 41 foot Fifth Wheel. Plenty of room for our rig, pull thru which my husband likes.
