RV camping near North Platte

·

Hemmed in by sandhills, tallgrass prairies, and lakes, North Platte still feels every bit the Wild West frontier town, and Buffalo Bill’s hometown should be a stop on any Nebraska road trip. Park your RV at Buffalo Bill Ranch State Park, then saddle up for a horseback ride around the historic ranch or check into an RV park along I-80 with full hookups and free wifi. Nebraskan summers can be sweltering, so snag a lakeside RV campsite at Lake Maloney or head to the primitive campground by Sutherland Reservoir—both have swimming beaches, boating and fishing areas, and water sports such as wakeboarding and jet skiing. Better yet, visit in spring (birders take note: North Platte is a key site on the sandhill crane migration route) or in fall, when the cooler weather is ideal for paddling along the Platte River and exploring the mountain biking trails at Potter’s Pasture.
