“Beautiful Park”

Reviewed 4/12/2023

Days stayed: 1
Overall Rating

We arrived late evening and found a spot easily. There was a booth at the front with envelopes to pay the park entrance fee and the camping fee. The showers were still closed (April 10) but the pit toilets were clean. We saw deer, rabbits and lots of sand hill cranes eating in the fields and then flying over at dusk and dawn.

“A very nice state park”

Overall Rating

We came to see the Sandhill Crane migration and were surprised by how nice the campground is. The sites around us were large with very large trees. There is also a good size sand beach for swimming. This would be a good place for family camping. The short hike to the converted railroad bridge over the Platte River is perfect to watch sunrise or sunset.
The park is an easy 8 miles off I-80.
