This is our FAVORITE campground! Clean, well maintained and beautiful sites right on the lake. We visit several times a year, and it’s always beautiful.

It was real nice, other than the extreme wind & a rainy day. The site #25 was real good. We love Council Grove & the lake as well.

Would have been really helpful to know the pad where camper is to be parked has a pretty big angle. We were scrambling a bit to find enough items to level our camper.

Park was clean and we saw the staff working regularly through the week to keep it clean. asphalt roads and pads are showing some signs of wear and need repair in some places. Quiet camp when we were there water and electric worked fine. Dump station was in good condition with good water pressure for tank flush. could not pick up any OTA TV stations and NOAA weather station signal was weak. T-mobile cell phone was 5G 2 bars. It is only a very short 2,5 mile drive to Council Grove for anything you need.
