We really like the campground. It’s well kept up & plenty of room for games & small gatherings with our group. This year it was a little unfortunate because of the weather, something that can’t be helped. We left a day early because of storms but had one perfect day to go in town & hit up the shops then to have a fire that night.

Spent a weekend at the group site. It was a cool wet weekend but the view is awesome and the trees protected us from the strong south wind.
We hope to try it again with better weather. Really enjoy this campground as we stayed in one of the sites last year.

The campsite was great. The utilities worked and we were in a beautiful location. There were some wasps that showed up. We did NOT cook outside, so we didn't have to deal with them. We were also there in April when there weren't many other campers, so it was very quiet. We didn't use the showers or the dump, so we can't comment on those.

Beautiful view with lots of snow geese and we even saw a bald eagle! It was absolutely amazing even on a kind of cold day and night that dipped into the 30s but it was still amazing!

A+ Core campground. Nice spacing between sites. No host present, but easy to check in. Did not use the bathrooms, but dump station was nice to have. Tall Grass Prairie is a must see, located about 1/2 hr to the south.
