Our only complaint is number of dog not keep on leash. Almost every morning on our walk there would be at least one running lose. Causing our dog on leash to bark to protect her family.

Nice campground next to the lake. Lots of shade and nice shelters with picnic tables under them at the campsite.

This was our second camper vacation at Richey Cove. We absolutely loved it and plan on many more stays here. Richey Cove is clean and well shaded. All the people we met were friendly and helpful. Our famiy enjoys this beautiful area and we have found our favorite campsite.

Had a blast! This is by far my favorite lake. This was the first time my husband had been to Council Grove lake and it is now his favorite lake as well, so much so that we have made reservations for two different weekends.
