Outlet Melvern is very peaceful. The park is mostly flat, with many walking/bike paths.

Picture Perfect. My family of four tent camped here one night. We could have easily stayed 2+. The sunset was stunning on the lake. We loved star-gazing. Grassy area was perfect for our tent by our site. (#136, C-loop). It was full- but quiet as everyone else was in a camper. Clean bathrooms. Lots of kindling around on the trail. This was a highlight of our trip to KS from GA.

We love the Melbourne Park outlet. We drive 380 miles from Western Kansas to spend two weeks there. The scenery is beautiful and the facilities are top-notch.

Overnight stay. Nice and quite. Bathrooms and Showers were open. Yellow light in bathroom made difficult to see, not sure of the reason maybe dark sky area.
