What others are saying
Memphis SRA is a great option for those wanting to camp in Nebraska. It offers primitive camping with water, vault toilets, dump station, and playground. Fishing is available, but it can be difficult to catch anything. The campground is peaceful and quiet, with picnic tables and fire rings at each site. There are no electrical hookups or running water, but there is a nearby bar with bait, ice, and canoe rentals. The campsites are close to the lake, with mature trees providing shade. The 10 pm quiet hours rule is respected. There is no scenic walking trails, but there is a small playground. It is a great place to stop off of I-80, with a stocked fishing lake. Redwing blackbirds, geese, and lightning bugs can be found in the nearby corn fields.
