Reviews
"Virtually no shade, very expensive for just electricity. Also a 12 dollar parking permit per day while camping on top of the camping fee of 25 dollars a day. What a ripoff, steer clear, much better places exist."
"It's southwest Nebraska. An oasis of trees, hiking, and water in the middle of lots of corn, beans, and pasture. Explore some of the back dirt roads - there are a lot of neat areas to investigate. Camping is adequate. Fishing is good. My boys and I love to visit, and it's just 15 minutes from McCook!"
"Lots of fun to camp and stay with family. Beautiful kid friendly campgrounds."
"Beautiful lake that's coming back since the damn was fixed. Master angler wipers and nice bass."
"Great place for photography and beautiful lake. Take the dirt roads and see where they lead you."
