Open in the winter however the restrooms are closed. Only one other camper was there and we got a spot at 7pm but it was Thanksgiving.
Pretty quiet other than a train at 4am but not super loud.

Arrived about 6pm, two sites in the shady area were available. About 93 degrees so electricity for the AC was welcomed. Clean restrooms and showers. Great thing this town has done to make this available to travelers.

Also to note: It easily accommodated our tow vehicle, which is a full crew cab super duty and a 30’ Airstream. On the evening we stayed the cost was $25.

The small town of Ellis has got their act together to offer weary travelers a respite from the monotonous I-70 grind.
Situated right in the middle of Kansas between Denver and Kansas City, Ellis has turned its shady park into a pleasant stay.
Massive shade trees offer cool spots to pull any size RV under with AC and water. We have a 13’ tall camper and no low hanging branches.
All sites are level and pull through, though if you get there later in the day, not under shade trees.
An older building on site offers bathroom and showers as well as a dump site.
The campsite is 5 minutes off I-70, just before the quaint downtown begins, slight noise from the highway at night. There can be a freight train rumble through near to the campground, we experienced two. One at 10:30pm the other at 6:40am.

Nothing crazy just a clean quiet spot to park for the night. Many other campers and police patrolled through. Check the tickets in the empty spots, most sites said occupied but the tickets were expired. Great cell service ps not a lake.

Great spot for an overnighter. Easy access, easy self check in and decent enough shower house/bathrooms. Good value for the price.

Very cute little town right off I70. Stayed on a Wednesday night and it was very quiet. Looks like they have recently added a bunch more pull through spaces across the little street running through the campground area, so space shouldn't be an issue if youre passing through.
Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is the pricing. $15 tents/$25 RVs is very reasonable, but the sign says you must be in a tent for the lower rate. Staying in a campervan for the night and not needing hookups, I feel like I should have just set up a tent for show :)

Very nice little city park with easy access right off I-70. There is also a big rig friendly gas station near the I-70 exit, so refueling is a breeze too.
Half the sites overlook the river and the campground is very close to town.
Would definitely stay here again.
