The campground itself is beautiful. But the hidden costs will get you! You must buy a state park pass for each drivable vehicle. So our class c towing a Jeep was an additional $14 per day. In addition to that the showers cost money and if you want a picnic table it is a more expensive site! Loved my stay, but not the cost!

Stayed 2 nights as a jumping off point for a long journey back to Wisconsin. Sites are well-spaced with a lot of large trees. Quiet campground overall with a lot to see in the area. US-20 traverses the state park, setting us up for a road less traveled eastbound journey across Nebraska. The bathrooms are adequate. Overall, a very nice homebase for a couple days to explore the history and geography of the region.
ATT cell service sufficient for calls and modest internet access.

We stayed the week after Labor Day and everything was closed for the season. The pool, jeep rides, basically everything mentioned in other reviews. This made for a very peaceful and sparsely populated park. We LOVED it. Plenty of hiking and biking available. We stayed in the Red Cloud campground in the new FHU outer loop (east and south side of campground). Be advised that there will be no shade in this new section for about 20 years. The older section is well shaded. Price does not include Nebraska day use fee. We had previously purchased an annual non-resident pass for $60.

Beautiful historic park in the northwest of Nebraska. Scenery reminiscent of the Black Hills of South Dakota with over 100 miles of multi use trails for hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking. The park has a restaurant on site as well as a small store, museum, activities center, a playhouse, and stables for boarding horses. They offer Jeep tours of the park, a train ride, tubing trips, mountain bike rental, horse rides, carriage rides, Chuck wagon dinners and more for additional fees. Lots of markers and signs to learn about the history of the park/area. There are several scenic drives also. Close to Agate Fossil Beds National Monument and Toadstool Geological Park which were both great to visit!
There are multiple campgrounds with all different levels of hookups - primitive, electric only, 50 amp, electric + water, and full hookup. We stayed at Soldier Creek Campground #60, an electric only site. Potable water & dump station were easily accessible. Bathrooms were clean. Did not use showers but they were pay to use.
The trails were great and even with massive horse stables, we didn’t see many other hikers or riders throughout our multiple days of hiking!

Fort Robinson State Park is an activity packed park in Northwestern Nebraska, with some interesting history. BUT, know that the price listed for camping does not include taxes & fees (~$2/day), nor cost of Park daily entry permit ($12/day). Still a good deal, but be ready when you check in. There are tons of hiking trails in the park, from “easy” up to “”hard”. There are also jeep tours, short and long horseback trail rides, stagecoach rides, chuckwagon meals, breakfast or dinner among the nearby buttes, an indoor swimming pool, and the “Trailside Museum”, each for a fee. The on-site restaurant has a small menu, but there’s definitely something for everyone, and the portions are LARGE! Campsites are well-spaced and generally level. Bathrooms & pay showers are clean and well maintained. Showers use quarters, change machine takes $1 & $5; $1.50 for 4-1/2 minutes. A little bit of road noise (trucks engine braking) from adjacent US Rte 20. Could not find an on-property guest laundry. Would stay here again.

Fort Robinson State Park is a destination park with plenty to do to keep one occupied more than a weekend. Take a historic tour on a tram/train, a stagecoach ride or a Jeep tour. Enjoy the indoor pool. Stroll into the many displays in the historic buildings. Take advantage of the riding stables, the concession stand, the vast book exchange library, playground, or restaurant. Don't leave until you've seen a production in the Post Playhouse (seasonal). Also the White River Trail is great for hiking or biking. It will take you back into Crawford, NE. Be sure to check out the Crawford City Park at the end of the trail.
Things to note: A daily park pass is required even if you're camping. $12 daily for out-of-state vehicles. Most extras at the park require a small fee. You can but tickets for most things at a small kiosk in front of the mail registration building. Showers are on pay timers. 9 minutes for $3.00.

The history discovered in Fort Robinson Campground was interesting and informative. I am not sure the accounts are all factual regarding the murder, or assassination as I like to call it, of Sioux Lakota leader Crazy Horse. But all the books during the last year or so I have read preparing myself for this trip helped immensely in separating fact from fiction. The fort itself is well-represented and its own history is remarkable beginning from the time of Crazy Horse until the end of WWII. There are even the remnants of the German POW camp situated a mile or so outside of the fort. This is also near where the second Red Cloud Agency and there is a monument to it as well.
As far as the campground is concerned the sites are nice, well-situated, with electricity at our site #61. The dump station and potable water is located just as you enter Soldier Creek. Check-out is at 2PM but the rub here is that it requires you to purchase another Out of State day pass for twelve bucks if you don’t exit the park by noon. Upon our early arrival I wondered why it was so easy getting in and this explains it. Showers are not free but coin operated. Claims of the park also having a coin-operated laundry facility are erroneous as the two rooms that purportedly housed them are almost impossible to find, and it was understood that one of them was currently being turned into a shower room for the equestrian campers. Everything costs money in this park so it is not a good deal, but the history museums and structures there required us to spend ours. When added up I’m guessing it cost us around fifty bucks for one night of camping. Toadstool Geological Park is about 23 miles from the camp and is a definite “must-see”.

We found a spot, set up and paid in the morning. Amazing park! We wish we had had time to enjoy the park. There were horse stables and a restored calvary Fort. 50 amp service with water and sewer and large long spaces with privacy. Paid $25.00 with $5 off season discount.
