Popped in here late one evening. My wife found this place using internet while rolling down the hwy after crossing most of Kansas. We were on the tail end of our trip from Virginia to Utah and back and anxious to get home. Camp host was terrific and the site was easy to back our 21' hybrid trailer into in the dark. Site was level and clean, very private with beautiful tall trees all around. We slept great in this very quiet campground that reminded us of our forests in Virginia. Woke up and made pancakes for breakfast before hitting the final leg of our trip. Dump station was easy to find just down the road, and it was easy to hit the highway east. Will definitely stop here again on our future adventures.
