A lot of nice playgrounds. As stated previously the sites are very unlevel but the employee mentioned they were going to be leveled winter of 22.
It was a quick trip for us so we did not use any other amenities but they looked nice.

NEW PRICE $20 raised from $10. That would be OK if any sites were level and there was a sanitary dump. To level my 32' motorhome, the front tires were 3" off the ground. If the city wants to charge $20, they should fix the two short comings. Only sites 1 and 2 have 50amp. Be careful, the water pressure is excessive. I used my reducing ... more

If the city wants to charge $20, they should fix the two short comings. Only sites 1 and 2 have 50amp. Be careful, the water pressure is excessive. I used my reducing valve and I was OK.
The park itself is nice. Entrance is tight and roads are narrow and rough. Best to come from Horton street then up to 9th to get to the park.

This is a nice shady park with water and electric. There is a pit toilet with a sink that leaves a lot to be desired. That is the only negative I have to say about this pretty park. We were traveling through and only stayed one night but definitely would stay here again. It was shady but we got a lot of tree sap on our Motorhome and tow vehicle. They have a nice small lake for fishing. The lot was large and the spaces are far apart. Cell service was good. Not many tv channels with just an antenna.

There are ostensibly 14 spots, but everyone takes up 2 spaces. It’s a really beautifully maintained park with fishing lake, frisbee golf, and a huge dog park. Water and electric, okay cell, somewhat level spots. I’d rate it higher but the pit toilet bathroom is just not usable.

Park was still open on 11/30 with water still on and 30A plugs only (no 15A plugs). Paid $10 in the envelope and took up two sites with our 40' 5th wheel. Maybe 3 out of 10 spots you can get a larger rig in if you take up two places. Sites are all doubles. One other person in a 35' motorhome on a Sunday night. Roads were passable with ... more
Park was still open on 11/30 with water still on and 30A plugs only (no 15A plugs). Paid $10 in the envelope and took up two sites with our 40' 5th wheel. Maybe 3 out of 10 spots you can get a larger rig in if you take up two places. Sites are all doubles. One other person in a 35' motorhome on a Sunday night. Roads were passable with a large rig, but would not try the park or campground with a large RV during anything but the off season. Park is used by locals playing disc golf. Kids enjoyed the multiple playgrounds. Stayed here to visit the Fort Scott historic site a mile away. 4 stars reflects having the place almost to ourselves and a nice view (and power for $10 on a cold night). Free dump station at the fairgrounds/tech center off Horton St. on the way out to the south.

I always appreciate a local city or county park. We usually only stay overnight and this park gets you off the road and away from traffic. $10 per night for RV and $5 for tent camping.
Approximately 10 RV and a good size tent area.
Water and 30 amp service to the RV spots.
Camping is adjacent to a small fishing pond.
