We had a very nice time camping at Richie Cove in Council Grove KS. Other than the wind & a small storm it was all great. Had nice spots right by the water. Easy & close for a quick to town for some shopping, ice cream, watch some spring baseball & more. Will definitely go back.

Site view was very pretty . Shelter house was a littler dangerous someone had dumped rocks along the edge of the concrete base of shelter and there was a huge divet left behind .
Not very good for fishing I lost a lot of hooks to the rocks .
We did have a great peaceful time though .

We enjoyed our first time here. Water access for our water bubble. Nearly every site has lakefront view or at least close access. The covered picnic tables are great quality.
We loved the view, and no vehicle fees was a super plus! We think we found our new spot!
We will definitely be back though.
