Blackthorn Retreat is a private campground unlike anywhere else in the area. Our campsites are nestled among towering oak, osage orange, walnut, and cedar trees. The result is a forest sanctuary where nature still thrives, wildlife roams freely, and campers can find both solitude and adventure.
Here you’ll find a variety of ways to stay: dispersed camping under the trees, secluded sites for maximum privacy, canvas tents already set on wooden decks, a group gathering space, small cabins, and even areas for hammocks, RVs, and camper trailers. Every site comes with a picnic table and fire ring, and all guests enjoy access to clean porta johns, a hot-water outdoor shower, potable water, an electronics charging station, and plenty of communal amenities—a massive BBQ grill, multiple fire rings, a pavilion, clay pizza oven, and a playground for the kids. Beyond your campsite, 80 acres of woods, winding trails, and a river are yours to explore.
Whether you’re here to watch wildlife, listen for the birds at dawn, share stories by the fire, or simply slow down and breathe in the stillness, Blackthorn Retreat is ready to welcome you. Adventure awaits—come see for yourself.

Kansas is famous for its sunrises and sunsets—experience them for yourself! They are one of my favorite things about living here. The highway provides easy access to the property, but luckily it is not heavily traveled.
I live on-site, along with several horses, sheep, chickens, and barn cats. It’s a homestead in progress. You are welcome to pet the horses, walk out into the pasture, and enjoy a slice of country life.

We actually got to get a pull through site instead of the back in. It was all paved and we were able to skate in it. Really nice campground. Small store with ice, firewood, bug spray, and things of that nature. Nice pool and bathroom/shower area’s.

Traveling home from vaca we were looking for a spot off the beaten path, quiet and somewhat secluded. This spot was definitely off the beaten path, quiet for the most part but the trailer spot is right off their main road. Secluded, is debatable. The trailer spot is approximately 300 ft from the host’s house. It is shaded with their farm animals within view. Horses and chickens. I’m not sure this would be suitable for us for a long stay but for a quick overnight it served its purpose. Host - Steve was helpful and very informative and helped with making sure we knew where to hook up. They did inform us of their land and where we could walk around but unfortunately due to the amount of traveling we took the opportunity to just rest.

What a great place! We loved our overnight here, but this place would have been great for a longer stay. Super clean and safe. Laundry facilities were really good. They were coin operated and the store that is on-site will sale you quarters. Great stay!!!
