The best dog-friendly camping in Kansas

·

If you're taking your pet to Kansas, you are likely to find welcoming accommodations. Imagine creekside RV sites and tent camping, cabins that look out on wide-open prairies, and glamping tents with fire pits and views of the dark night skies. Pet-friendly sites offer plenty of room to roam. You may even spot an Instagram-ready sunflower field—after all, this is the Sunflower State. Many campsites and cabins are dog-friendly and cat-friendly, though some request a heads up, especially if you're camping on a family farm or with Hosts or other travelers onsite. Kansas offers pet-friendly camping options near the cities of Wichita, Topeka, Lawrence, and Kansas City—or you can stay in the scenic surroundings of the Flint Hills or locales near Kansas state parks. Explore the expanses of the Cimarron National Grassland, the outdoor recreation at El Dorado Lake State Park, or the history of Scott State Park—all with your pet in tow.

My family settled on this plot of land at the turn of the century, moving west in a covered wagon. And aside from a brief time in the late 80's it has been in our family ever since. For most of the 20th century the property was a small farm, grazing cattle and mowed for bailing hay. We are trying to rejuvenate the property and breathing some new life into this old plot of land. Learn more about this land: The Hill, aptly named, is a hilltop that slopes down to a large pond that divides the twenty acre property in two.  With plenty of room to stretch your legs you can enjoy a nature walk. In the evening enjoy the night sky around one of several fire rings, while roasting marshmallows. Easy access and only a quarter mile from the main road.

On the other side of the camper you can snooze your worries away in the hammock, perfect for napping or reading a favorite book. The pond, just feet away from the camper is full of fish including crappie, catfish and bass and fishing poles are available for your use. Near the pond you'll find a small shelter house for up close views of the pond. The family of geese and ducks you'll see walking around are permanent residents of Duck's Landing, hence the name.
