Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022. 30amp service with water. Dump station has easy access. I have a large rig 43’ trailer pulled by HDT (semi truck) and navigated through the park without dropping off any payment. The sites are compacted gravel. Management needs to have tree branches cut to 15’ overhead clearance so they do not contact a rig moving throughout the park.

Very quiet with clean restrooms and campsite. Nice playground for kids. Well shaded on spos with nice picnic table, lots of room for vehicle, camper and additional vehicle and tent. Fantastic daily rate. More private than some of the other campsites at Kanopolis.

Nice, clean campground with clean and private bathrooms and showers. Easy access to the river. But not policed at night. Half the times my family has camped there, someone has stayed up late with lowed music and yelling. Unless you're in a camper with the A/C on, its difficult to get a good night's rest.

We love this camping spot. Unfortunately the bathroom was out of service and the pit toilet was the only option this time. Also, the campground lights were too bright to make stargazing an option.

Lovely patk along the river, perfect 3 night stop while
traveling across Kansas. Cute small towns worth exploring near by and the state park.

The site was large and fairly flat with shade. Access into backin was easy. Sites were spaced out well, lots of trees and close to river. Water and electric worked great. Needed the AC as it was over 100F. Beautiful area with interesting drives through NF land and Mushroom Rock State Park nearby.
