What others are saying about this campground
This campground is situated in the peaceful Nebraska countryside, just off of I80. It is located down a gravel road and is surrounded by a wildlife refuge and acres of corn. The sites are back-in, level and made up of rocks and gravel with plenty of small ant piles. The campground offers a peaceful setting with plenty of opportunities for fishing, wading and boating in the adjacent North Platte River. The park ranger is friendly and knowledgeable and will provide helpful information about the area. There is a $25 per night camping fee, plus a $12 fee per day for out-of-staters. Amenities are limited to several water hydrants and a pit toilet, but for $9 a night you cant complain. The campground is also close to the Golden Spike Railroad viewing tower and is the perfect spot to recuperate after a long day on the road.
