Two Rivers State Recreation Area
Reviewed Jul. 15, 2018

Magnificent panoramic views of the River

Two rivers is my favorite Nebraska hidden gem! The state Rec Park is by both the Elkhorn and Platte rivers, thus it’s name, Two Rivers.

There are several camping areas, divided into “sub sections”, my favorite place is the cottonwood division (not water hookups but electricity ones work just fine! (Water hook ups are in a different subdivision, but available) the Cottonwood camp area lays right on the Platte River and it is beautiful watching the sunset over the water.

Two rivers has several lakes with a variety of different fishing options, though I must admit we do not fish much! The crowd is always there though, for what it’s worth. A swimming beach for kids, and river access when the river is low enough. I also recommend tubing down the Elkhorn through private companies, like “Uncle Scott’s”. So much fun!

Showers are new, updated and warm! Very friendly people and a wonderful convenient store/shack/breakfast store!
