This park is nearer Independence, KS than Elk City. Only sites 1-11 of the Comfort Cove section have full hookups and you can only stay 14 days without an extension. We were able to get a week extension but to get more we would have had to leave the campground then come back and hope a site was available. Other than a rising lake from torrential rains which did not pose a risk in the Comfort Cove section, but did some of the other sections, the park is really nice with ample size sites and friendly staff. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a great campground. We were attending a festival in nearby Independence this weekend and chose to camp at this state park. It is on a beautiful lake surrounded by hills and trees. There are several choices for campsites from primitive to full hookups. Lots of shade. The site we camped in was in Prairie Meadow, which offers very spacious pull through sites as well as some back in. The sites are spaced far apart which allows for great privacy. Independence is a very nice town with all the necessities available in a 5 minute drive. (aka Walmart) We will definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice, clean park with many pull-through sites. The lake front sites were full, but we found several large, treed sites available that were quiet and comfortable. Some site have sewer hook-ups, and dump stations are available. Good hiking trails are located in the park and a Walmart is just 10 minutes away in Independence if you need supplies. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground was a very nice find. A little tight for a big rig, but the trees are well trimmed. 15/30/50 amps at sites as well as water. A few sewer sites. 2 dump stations. Very clean. On a large reservior. Sites are very large. Pads are asphalt with concrete table pads. All roads are paved. Boat launch and swim area. We camped here in a camper.

Very nice state park. Good roads, 3 separate camping areas, concrete pads,lake-front sites, 50 AMP service. Very unusual fee structure - Basic cost, then additional if water/electric, sewer and if you drive your toad in the park. We camped here in a camper.
