This is a wonderful place to camp. We wanted to stay several nights & unfortunately had to go home because of business so only stayed one night. We definitely plan on going back!

Had a great time but could use more accessibility for elderly and handicapped on the Nebraska side of the river

Basically parking spaces along a road paralleling the lake shore. Clean and quiet but one day was plenty. Nice cheap site if you’re just passing through

Free showers with plenty of hot water. Camp host extremely friendly, courteous, helpful, wanted to make sure we knew where the shelter was because of an upcoming storm. Will stay here again.
