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.

Lovely campsite right by the river with a nice plentiful stack of firewood. Had a nice hike across the river. Definitely follow their directions to the property and don’t rely on your gps, we didn’t on the way in and ended up driving like 12 miles are well well maintained dirt roads.

We visited in 25 ft airstream. Stayed in site 22 and were able to pull in without detaching. A couple of back ups needed to turn around to exit but very easy. So so peaceful. Our dogs ran, rolled and had a blast. Cute donkey came to visit us at night. A tad dusty in the drive in and out but wonderful spot.
