Nicest place in town, which isn't saying much, but a lot better than the other place along the Interstate. Trees, grass, level gravel sites. Pool was closed since it's October but park still charged full price. Bathroom was spartan- cold concrete floors and no hot water, just warm. Owners exceptionally friendly. Free wifi was great; cable TV is good too. No highway noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a really well located campsite, it's close to the old wild west quarter of Ogallala, and about 15 minutes drive to Lake McConaughy for picnics or bird watching, eagles, there are also some very good grocery stores around the main town, the owner was extremely friendly and even gave us vegetables out of his own garden, the campsite has an antique shop which is nice for foreign visitors like ourselves to see old American artifacts and collect-ables, excellent high speed wi-fi, we found the park to be very clean and tidy and would definitely stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This Park has great pull-thru access for any size rig. A real plus! Management was great, restrooms were top-notch. Great access to the Interstate, yet far enough away to be removed from the usual noise. Will stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Clean & quiet park. Further away from the lake than we expected and the access road in from the east was terribly corrugated - use the west access. Very friendly hosts - would stay again! We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you're looking for a real get-a-way with seclusion, this is the cg for you. It is tucked away near Lake McConoughy and is truly a "hide-away". It has great cg hosts and a quaint store, and individual shower stalls which were sparkling clean. This is a relatively new campground, so there isn't a lot of shade and the the swimming pool was a little small. The lake is about 20 minutes away with a wonderful sandy beach. We would definitely go back. If you go there, try their home made pizza! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stopped here on our way home from Yellowstone. Very nice park. We had a lake view and the sites are spacious. The park is well maintained. There is a $4.00 park entrance fee on top of the nightly rate. We stayed 4 nights. There is full hookup available at Lake McConaughy which is just a few miles up the road and on a larger lake, but they were not as shady as the sites on Lake Ogalala nor did they have lake views. Lake McConaughy has a lot of sandy beaches that you can drive right down to the lake. We had no idea Nebraska had that much sand. It was like being on a beach in Florida. No dump at Lake Ogalala, but there is one at Lake McConaughy. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at this SRA. While we were expecting to only have electricity at Lake Ogallala, we were directed to the Little Thunder campsites which are over the dam. Sites 2 thru 6 are full hookups with 50amps! The sites are large, paved and level, the staff was friendly and helpful and the restrooms were well kept. We'll definitely be back! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We arrived mid afternoon on a Friday, and had no difficulty getting a prime site on the lake with a beautiful view. On Saturday, the park filled up pretty quick, so I would recommend reservations going forward from this time of year. Reservations are accepted for roughly half of the sites in the campground. The waterfront sites are plentiful, and many of them are reservable. The sites were very adequately spaced (our nearest neighbors were at least 20' away on one side and 40' or so on the other), and all were long, level back-ins suitable for any size rig. There are fire rings and picnic tables provided at most sites, and there are very large deciduous trees providing fair to good shade, which will probably be better once they are fully regain their leaves. Fishing was fair to good in the lake, with trout and walleye being the main catches. The campground was very quiet, though I would bet that it could get much louder in the summer when the jetskis are more plentiful. There is a dump station across Hwy 61 from the campground at Martin Bay on Lake McConaughy, and water available at several locations (including the entrance). The playground was dilapidated, and consisted only of a slide and a swingset, but my daughter still had fun playing for a little while. The openness of the campground, along with the lack of city lights, lent well to stargazing at night by the fire. Rates at the time of our travel were $10 for no hookups, $14 with electric. Overall it was a great trip, and we will definitely stay here again! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have stayed at Long Eagle Campground on the Lake twice. This time we booked full hookups and right on the lake so it was better than last year. It is a good place to walk (and boat, swim or fish) if you want to or like to. The campground Host, Lou and Sherry were terrific. We will return. The full hookups are limited so you do need to make your reservation early (maybe close to 1 year) if you enjoy full hookups. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

We stopped here on our way back from MN. We really enjoyed it and are planning a trip back. Most of the sites have a lot of trees and there are sites with lake views. They only take reservations during Memorial Day and Labor Day Weekend (3 day min.), otherwise, it is always first come; first serve for campsites only. This seems to be the place if you want to fish. We saw a lot of people bringing in the fish. The place will tow your boat to the launching area if you don't have a vehicle to pull it there. Boat rentals are available. They also offer storage of your RV or Camper for $40/mo. They have a play area for the kids. We encountered a wind storm but it was no problem for our Hybrid/Trailer. They have a very nice store where you can buy your license and anything you forgot. A gas pump is available too. The sites are approx. less than 1/4 mile from beach area. It looks like the water used to come up to the lake view sites a long time ago. I would recommend trying Van's. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is all sand on Lake McConaghay. No pavement or grass. Lots of big shade trees and good electric power but almost no water pressure. Some sewer connections are uphill from the campsite. There is a road to a nearby boat ramp and lots of fishers in this park. It's very dusty and all sand. The lake was lower than normal so the park is not right on the lake now. If the lake was up to normal then there would be lakeside campsites. No internet at all but satellite tv worked. The owners are older and get the job done but not real friendly. I would not drive out there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
