    Czechland Lake Recreation Area

    Great first come first serve campground

    This is a nice small campground that is well taken care of. We stayed at site number 8 which may be one of the more unlevel spots. The passenger side of our 5th wheel was about 7" lower than driver side and rear of fifth wheel was about 3" lower than front before we levelled out. 

    Pros:

    -Well maintained walking trails that are perfect for dogs

    -Most sites have 30 and 50 amp hookups

    -Fire rings and picnic tables at most sites

    -$18 a night for electric hookups

    -Quiet

    Cons:

    -Some sites are very unlevel  

    -No water or dump station

    Riverside Park

    Unexpected surprise!

    Level sites. Will accommodate rigs of all sizes. 50amp electric. Water hook up. Dump station. All for $15 per night. Fairly quiet, some highway noise but not bad. Clean restroom and shower. Would stay here again.

    Summit Lake State Recreation Area Campground

    Quiet and worth booking

    Pros: Quiet, walking trails, lake, bar nearby, clean showers and bathroom, building a new playground as of 10/2022

    Cons: Dump station is on a noticeable uphill slope, so you won't be able to completely empty a tank if your setup is the wrong way. No water hookups at sites. 

    We stayed in October 2022 at site 28. This is my favorite site because it has a convienient water spicket right next to it if you want to fill your freshwater tank without moving your rig. The only drawback is that it is right next to the showers so a little busy. Campground is well kept. Lake is low as of 2022 but looks to be refilling.

    Columbus Agricultural Park

    Full Hookups

    The only good from this Campground is its full hookup year round. It was dirty and very outdated. Most of the sewer hookups were broken and backed up and the electric boxes were broken and outdated. If you have a newer rv I would suggest not staying here or try to find a good electrical box. No fire rings, most sites just had a fire on the ground. This place is just run down and dirty, ok place for a night.

    Maskenthine Lake Recreation Area

    Nice but

    Very nice clean well maintained cg on a pretty lake. Modern rest room w showers. Electric at site. Various water spigots throughout. Dump at entrance. Quiet restful picturesque. But the roads getting there are terrible. The west road in is 2 miles of gravel then 3 miles on dirt. Wont make it if it rained. Don't even try. The east entry is 4-5 miles of 5 mph washboard. Tie everything down. 3 bars of at&t. It is such a nice place but I will not return due to poor roads. The $25 cost should be $18. I stayed in a 26' B+ but big rigs will fit.

    Danish Alps State Recreation Area Camping

    All By Myself

    I pulled in and found a wide open campground. I picked a site high on the bluff overlooking the reservoir. It had quite the view. It’s a newer area so trees are planted for the future. Sites are spacious with water and both 30 & 50 amp hookup. Clean dump station that also has a fish cleaning station. Playground, boat ramp, picnic area fishing, birdwatching, equestrian camp & trails, something for everyone.

    Ta-Ha-Zouka Park

    Much better!

    We stayed there late July 2023. This year they added a camp host. When we pulled up, he greeted us and was very friendly! Having a camp host has made the campsite much more safe and appealing. The locals told us it used to be a mess and it's so much better now. The campsite was much better than I expected for Norfolk, NE. We will be staying here again! Can't beat the price.

    Before we pulled up, we had to fill with water because there is no water at the sites themselves. And no sewer dump at the sites. (There is one on your way out). However, we had full 50 amp power. The concrete pads made it nice to park the RV on for easy set up.

    Czechland Lake Recreation Area

    Peaceful

    Has fishing, kayaking, hiking, 3 covered picnic areas with electricity, wildlife watching, no-wake boating, 11 (50 amp) RV/tent pads/sites at $20 per night, 3 free non-electrical RV/tent pads/sites, & free tent camping area by the dock. No park permit required. Can pay for pads/sites with cash or with mobile phone. Sites have trash cans, picnic tables and fire rings. Primitive bathrooms available. Water spigots available and working. No dumpsite. Dogs welcome but must be leashed.

    May be difficult parking for larger rigs (35ft+) due to the one way entrance and curvature of the campground. Also note that you will need to bring leveling blocks for nearly every site since the campground is build on a hill.

Biking and hiking: Multiple paved trails connect campgrounds to surrounding attractions. At Ta-Ha-Zouka Park, "The Cowboy Trail starts here and continues to Valentine, NE," according to one camper. Czechland Lake offers "well maintained walking trails that are perfect for dogs."

Historical explorations: Several historic sites within 30 minutes of local campgrounds showcase Nebraska's cultural heritage. "We took this opportunity to visit the John C Neidhardt Center in nearby Bancroft," reports a camper who stayed at Wisner River Park.

What campers like

Spacious sites: Many rv sites near Stanton, Nebraska feature concrete pads with ample space between neighbors. A camper at Ta-Ha-Zouka Park notes it has "nice roomy clean sites" and a "pretty little pond with fountain and immediate access to the Cowboy Trail."

Peaceful settings: Smaller community parks often provide quiet alternatives to busier recreation areas. "Beautiful town with lots to do! Visit the town website to see all the different things going on," writes a visitor to Howells Community Park.

Affordable rates: Most camping options maintain reasonable pricing compared to national averages. At Czechland Lake, "The tent camping is free, and electrical is 18," while Pilger City Park offers "five sites, all with electricity and two of them have water" at competitive rates.

What you should know

Water quality concerns: Some lakes experience seasonal algae issues that restrict water activities. "Unfortunately Willow Creek State Recreation Area, NE was under a health advisory when we arrived due to algae," reports one camper who had to change plans.

Limited amenities at smaller parks: Community-run facilities often have basic services. At Clarkson City Park, "I didn't see much for gas and food in town if you are hoping to swing in for a night and get back on the road tomorrow," notes a recent visitor.

Site leveling challenges: Many campgrounds in this region have uneven terrain. At Czechland Lake, one camper found "site number 8 which may be one of the more unlevel spots. The passenger side of our 5th wheel was about 7" lower than driver side and rear of fifth wheel was about 3" lower than front before we levelled out."

At River Land Campground, "RV sites are spacious, concrete patios w/ picnic tables, new fire rings. Baby trees were just planted to help with some shade, but there are a few mature trees too."
