I-80 Lakeside Campground

I-80 Lakeside Campground has easy access to I-80, and small lake if you like catch and release fishing, very level sites and the family that runs the facility is very friendly and helpful.

Downsides:
- Shower house is not heated and the lighting and facility needs an upgrade.
- Signage from the office to the sites is difficult to follow, but it is not too large and you can find your way.
- A bit noisy as it is just off I-80, but this didn't impact my sleep at all.
- No Wi-Fi.

Upsides:
- Very friendly staff.
- Excellent pricing (offer AAA, AARP, Veteran discounts).
- Easy access to I-80.
- No frills, just a nice place to stay.

North Platte, NE – I-80 Lakeside Campground. We stayed here two nights. Our pull through site was gravel, level and plenty long for both our 38’ 5th wheel and the truck. The interior roads were also gravel. There was grass between each site and the sites were not crowded. Most sites were pull through with no shade. I saw some back in sites by the lake that were back in – some of those were water/electric sites and some were only 30 amp, but others were FHU with 50 amp. There are 89 RV sites and also sites for tents. Our site N had no shade. They do not have WiFi or cable. Our portable Dish worked well and so did both Verizon and ATT cell signals. The campground offers for rent canoes, kayaks, paddleboats and rowboats. They also allow catch and release fishing. We were there 2 nights but we did not use any of the water craft since we spent a lot of the day at the Bailey Rail Yard, the largest rail yard in the world. I highly recommend that attraction. I did not see a dog yard but there is plenty of room to walk pets. The campground offers Good Sam discounts. We would stay here again.

We utilized this campground while traveling westbound and then again eastbound. Each time we reserved our campsite and had a very pleasant experience placing reservations. The campground is very close to I-80 so expect to hear highway noise. This campground is a typical RV style campground with not much privacy. The sites are gravel and fairly level. No major complaints, we would certainly stay here again.

Camped for two days as we were visiting friends in North Platte. There is no grass and the spots are gravel and weeds. The spots are very close to each other which was a little bothersome. Convenient access to I-80 that you can see from the campground. The I-80 noise was not terrible, but we were in a spot furthest from the interstate. Some of the fire pits are very small and they all do not have grates over them. The hosts were nice and provided us with a 50 to 30amp converter. The ‘lake’ is small but you are allowed to swim, kayak, and fish which is nice. They were also pet friendly which is a bonus. Would camp again for night if traveling through.

Found this campground on our way back to the Midwest. It is located on a lake near the North Platte River. During Covid-19, the office was limiting the number of people in the office. We didn’t look at the laundry or restrooms to see if they were open. Our site was level on older hard-packed grass/gravel and included a fire ring, picnic table, and full-hookups. There was no WiFi, AT&T 4 bars LTE (great speed), limited over-the-air TV stations, and our hotspot with a MiMo antenna gave us great signal strength for streaming. It is located right off 1-80, so there is highway noise to contend with. There was a road around the lake which gave us an opportunity to walk around it a couple times every day too!
