We were only here one night, and arrived late. Chad was very friendly, met us and escorted us to our spot. The spot was awesome. Quiet, clean, dark. We spent a few minutes the next morning walking around a bit, and this is a beautiful spot. We will most definitely be back and hopefully get to spend more time.

We saw a cow run right past us on the land, which is beyond beautiful and so joyful to walk around. Our dogs had such a blast running. Responses were on point and Chris and Cynthia are just as wonderful. We will be back for sure. Thank you for sharing your haven with us!

Wonderful spot to stay at! We were there just for a quick overnight but were greeted by the friendliest barn cats you could ever ask for! We’re pet people so to have this trio of cuties come up and hang with us was a pleasant treat. The host was fantastic with instructions and made sure we were all set. Beautiful landscape, and while we didn’t see horses, we got in late and left early so that’s on us! We would stay again, 10/10.

I know, we should talk about the views and the hospitality (which were amazing), but I want to say that was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on! I was so suprised the bed was so nice! The cinnamon rolls and zucchini bread were perfect! The hosts were kind! The scenery was exactly what we hoped for... the stars were amazing! We had a nice trail to walk and got to see wonderful fall foliage. It felt safer than sleeping at the lake, which made the trip a lot more relaxing. I would recommend this camp and plan to return!

This piece of property is one of a kind. You can't go wrong with any campsite on the property, with crystal clear Saline river running by under huge limestone bluffs. Amazing Sunsets and wildlife. Actually watched a coyote playing in the river this morning from my tent. Chad and Cynthia are very responsive and definitely get some Cinnamon rolls and the Zucchini Bread while you are there.

The best camping in Nicodemus National Historic Site, KS guide

Overview

About

Once upon a time following the Civil War, freed African Americans settled within the rolling plains of Bogue, Kansas. They founded the settlement of Nicodemus. Although it's not the only Black town founded during this time, it's one of the only ones that remain.

Five buildings make up the historic site including the Township Hall, St. Francis Hotel, Old First Baptist Church, African Methodist Episcopal Church, and School District Number 1 house. After immersing yourself in the history, enjoy an impromptu picnic at the Roadside Park.

While you can't camp at the historic site, you can camp at Webster State Park, just 15 minutes down the road to the east. It includes 880 acres of prairie, over 8,000 acres in the wildlife area, and 3,700 acres of reservoir. After your visit to Nicodemus, relax with some swimming and fishing at the lake. Visit in the spring when you can enjoy newly blooming wildflowers and avoid the heat of a midwest summer.

Located in northwestern Kansas, the best way to get to Nicodemus is east on I-70 to Highway 24 at Colby or west on I-70 to Highway 24 at Topeka. The highway goes right through the settlement.
