I had a lovely stay at The Light Center. The barn was nice and inviting. There were plenty of books to read and a relaxing massage chair.
I would have liked to explore the trails while I was there, but it was freezing and I did not pack accordingly. 😅

Absolutely amazing site! Steven went above and beyond my expectations. We showed up with 4 kids between the ages of 5 and 12, and he pulled no stops entertaining them, including walking his horse down to our campsite for the kids to pet. Be sure to ask him what his record is with the ax throwing!!!😉😆 we will definitely be returning.

I stayed in The Stevie glamping yurt at Lake Georgia Sue Campground, and it was absolutely perfect. The view was beautiful, the area was peaceful and quiet, and everything was spotless. The entire property is stunning, with horses, goats, mini pigs, and other animals that add to the overall experience.
The lake itself is gorgeous, and the residents and employees were incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. It truly feels like a little hidden gem.
Location-wise, it’s great too—Jesse James Cave is just a short drive away, and there’s a local diner nearby with amazing food. If you’re visiting in the fall, the scenery is especially breathtaking.
Highly recommend staying here, especially in The Stevie!

This place is amazing! My best friend and I decided to have a girls weekend and camp out. The hosts were so nice and accommodating. The property was absolutely beautiful! We went towards the end of October and it was still stunning! Tons of animals that are so used to people and dogs that they ignored our dogs thinking they were big and tough. We are already planning on going back next weekend!

Susan was lovely, she came out to meet us and showed us different remote sites. Due to our tent size (6 person) we chose the first one. All the sites were nice and remote. 2 sites by the stream are on the smaller size so take account.
You can see the stars clearly at night! Had a nice small fire going
The chickens run from you 😂 and the goats like ear and butt scratches.

Base Camp was my first experience with my new-to-me camper and Hipcampers and it was a great experience!
Base Camp is set up very well...easy to get in and out of - especially for anyone with little experience. The pull through spots are very wide. Although I didn't get to use the free to use bicycles or canoes on this trip I did check them out and they are very well taken care of.
The Camp was peaceful and although it's just off the roadway it was very quiet with very little road noise.

Overview
About
Boasting more than 26 archaeological sites in the area, Scott State Park is hands down one of the most historic spots in Kansas. Between Native American battle grounds and settler homes, you'll find activities for outdoor enthusiasts of all types. Hunt or fish for wildlife just like the days of yore, or hike around the hallowed grounds and keep an eye out for the abundant wildlife ranging from bobcats to beavers. Horse lovers, have no fear, equestrian campsites in the area mean your four-legged friends are more than welcome. Whether you're swimming in your birthday suit, or just digging your toes into the white sand beaches, it'll be hard to complain about the amount of activities here.
Notable campgrounds
- Circle Drive: Offers water and electric hookups amid lush settings, perfect for both RVs and tents.
- Lakeview Campground: Closed for upgrades but known for its scenic vistas and proximity to the lake.
- Elm Grove: A tranquil area with primitive camping, ideal for those seeking a rustic experience.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Book early, as reservations for the upcoming year open in mid-December and can fill up quickly.
- For a longer stay, ensure you have a reservation to avoid being bumped from your site.
- Consider off-season camping for more availability and a peaceful park experience.
