Weekend Trip to Spring Creek Campground

The campground was easy to find and we enjoyed watching the horses in the morning! The campground was quiet with new full hook-ups. Jarett was easy to communicate with.

Weekend Trip to Spring Creek Campground

Perfect overnight stay as we moved through Kansas heading to Idaho and maybe beyond. We enjoyed the neighbor's horses as we sat under the shade trees. We didn't have any contact with the owner, but it's exactly as described.

Weekend Trip to Spring Creek Campground

Really nice campground with water/electrical/sewer. Host was very accommodating and communicated very well! Will be our go to campground any time we are looking to stay in that neck of the woods.
