Wow! This is one of the nicest state parks we've stayed in. Very well kept and lots to do and see. You do get some minor highway noise during the day but not too bad. The sites are paved and close to level. Chadron is close by and has most anything you may need. We will be back! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Lovely state park with surprising amenities. The kids very much enjoyed the pool and the fishing pond. Lot of hiking. Convenient from the road and accessible for big rigs. Lots of shade and well maintained slots. A nice stop on our way north. We would definitely stop again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A really beautiful park! Well maintained and very clean. The pond is right out of a Norman Rockwell painting. Sites weren’t quite level but it wasn’t a problem. All sites are 30 amps and you won’t find water at your site. We were in a first come site #60 up the hill and across from our site was a brick building with bathrooms & showers. It also housed a laundry room but we didn’t use it. Also across from us was a water spigot, which made taking on water a breeze. A minus, there was some road noise during the day but at night it was quiet. A plus, there were NO trains!! We had cell & Aircard signals using our antenna and booster and we also had a clear shot for our dome satellite. Don't let them assign a site to you as a lot of the sites have large trees and can block your satellite signal. We would definitely stay here again when passing through. Would have liked to stay longer! We camped here in a Motorhome.
A beautiful setting with nice big trees, walking paths. The bad side was lots of woodticks. Watch out for them. Otherwise, a very pretty campground. The tent area looked very nice. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The rate doesn't include the daily park fee of $4.00 per vehicle. It is also extra to use the pool, which is not at the campground. It is a beautiful park, well maintained and generally quiet. We stayed 4 nights. We had no trouble getting a satellite signal, we were in the upper section. The roads were paved, with paved sites. We did have trouble getting level, however. There were also a lot of ticks around. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is beautiful. The nightly rate was $15.00 but they add a $4.00 fee for each vehicle per day. We camped here in a motorhome and had to pay the site fee plus the fee for the rig and a fee for the car. We had electric only at the site but a water hydrant is located every seven sites where one can run a hose to fill their fresh water tank. We were on a site at the highest point in the camping area and the view was spectacular. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great find if you're wanting to have an experience at a state park in the Northwest quadrant of Nebraska. Only about 20% occupied, and the Rangers told me they are never full. Lots of space to spread out, and keep away from other campers. Lots of shade, and very well kept. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is very nice. Most of the sites are spacious. The bathrooms and showers were kept very clean. The only bad thing about our stay was that the swimming pool was shut down for repair and it was near 100 degrees. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park is a very nice park with nice scenery. some of the lower sites can have highway noise but not much as there is not much traffic out here in western Nebraska. The water is not at each site but is a hydrant spaced so that several sites can fill their tanks so carry extra hose. Last summers forest fires did not burn into the park. Overall a nice park so stay and relax in. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very nice campground in a beautiful state park. Plenty of space between sites. Loop roads and pads are paved. Only downside: the campground is adjacent to a highway, therefore it may be wise to find a site as far away from the highway as possible. There are some shaded sites. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground is on the west edge of town, right off the highway, but highway noise is not a problem at night. Cottonwood trees provide shade to some sites. The office, restrooms and showers are in one building: well-maintained and recently painted. Sites are gravel, pull-through and reasonably level. This is our 2nd time to stay here and we would stay here again. There aren't many RV parks in northwest Nebraska! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice, quiet park. It has a lot of shade trees. Owners are very nice and accommodating. Our truck broke down and they allowed us to keep our fifth wheel here for the week it took to fix it. We will camp here again when we come back to this area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Shady level sites under mature trees; easy to find right on highway; minimal noise because there just isn’t that much traffic. Pull-through sites large enough for motorhome and tow; side by side hookups with one side 30 and the other 50 amp. It might be tight if both sites were taken. There is a mobile home park directly in the back identified as Eagle’s Rest Estates; it was quiet with about 20 permanent homes. No one in office – self registration; called for password on secure internet site which had a slow connect speed but sufficient for email and minimal surfing. Only got 2 weak analog (no digital) TV signals. Very convenient for touring the area museums in Chadron and Crawford. Small college in town which fosters several fast food and local restaurants. Wal-mart Supercenter right at the SE intersection of US 385 & 20 which would work for an overnight. We camped here in a Motorhome.
