You won't believe you are still in Kansas! C2T Ranch is a working regenerative cattle ranch, with over 4 miles of Saline River running through it. Amazing 150' tall limestone cliffs rise above river and several spring fed creeks feed into the river. There is hiking galore in the canyons or on the cliffs, fishing in the rivers, or bird watching on the native prairie above the cliffs. Fossil hunters can find a variety of fossilized shells, as well as native septarian and calcite for the rockhounds. Our picturesque, secluded campground has primitive and powered campsites, plus several glamping tent, all dispersed along an amazing horseshoe bend of the Saline River, each with direct river access. We're only a 20 minute drive north of Hays, Kansas and I-70, come visit us today!

Beautiful Setting and Gracious Host
Beautiful setting and gracious hosts. This campsite is remote and private, located by the river and surrounded by bluffs.

Country Romance Tent
The tent was roomy, comfortable, and impressively clean. The hospitality of the hosts was fantastic--very responsive and above and beyond. The food (burgers, potatoes, and cinnamon rolls) was so worth it; the burgers were so good that we just wanted to eat them plain to fully enjoy their flavor. I would love to come back when the river isn't dry but it was still a lovely view.
