Very easy to find. I drove back into the property a ways, picked my spot, and as planned, settled in for a very quiet, peaceful evening.
Ely stopped by the next morning while he was taking care of some business. We chatted for a bit. Very friendly. Seems like a good dude. Told him I’m likely to return.

The area was spacious and private, exactly what I was looking for. If I had to nitpick, a sign at the entrance would be beneficial (very easy to miss turnoff), as well as a sign at the actual site. But the camping area matched the pictures, so that was easy enough. Highly recommend!

I took my grandsons aged 12 and 9 in my travel trailer. There is a wonderful dock, benches, deck chairs, and a fire pit. The beautiful pond and biting fish kept the boys happy along with building a fire. There is a shed which we visited in the evening for a shower and to watch tv. The most perfect views. I hope to make it back someday. Hosts are lovely people with beautiful children.

Super friendly owners and a beautiful farm with plenty of amenities and so many fun things to do! Swimming in the pond was great, the creek had so many cool fossils and we woke up to a ton of cows on the hillside which was so much fun for my son. Jock was such a sweet dog and my dog loved him a lot! Highly recommending staying here.

My daughter, dogs, and I stayed in our tent by the pond. It was quiet and secluded but we were also just a few minutes drive from groceries and anything else we might have needed. The mowed paths were great, they gave us a map of all the paths on the property. My daughter loved playing in the pond and watching the fish. We ran to town and bought floatie chairs to add to the fun. In the morning there was a family of geese with five babies that floated around on the pond while we packed up. I felt safe and had a relaxing time. Hosts are very kind and helpful.

Such an epic trip for so many reasons. First, it’s hands-down one of the best fishing spots in Kansas. We probably got 35 to 40 fish the entire weekend bass, crappie, catfish (some over 10 pounds) sunfish and even a perch. Second, it’s a really great piece of land and the owners are simply incredible people. They brought us firewood and they had ice and a wonderful shower to use after a long day in nature. Third, close enough for needs but far enough to see the stars. Book it! You’ll love it.
