Karrer Park Campground

We've stayed here a few times. It's a great community RV park maintained by the City of McCook. It's free but they do accept donations. We usually leave a donation of $20 per night as this little park is far nicer than many of the $50 RV parks (especially KOA's) we've paid to stay in. There's electric and water to each site with a dump station at the entrance. There is a bit of highway noise to the north and the railroad tracks are right behind the park shielded by the heavy brush and forest. There's a decent restroom with showers available. Although clean they show their age. No reservations as it's first come first serve. McCook is a nice little town with all the shopping and supplies needed for travelers available. There's many good restaurants in town from fast food to sit down dining. The central grassy central area is a nice place to walk your dogs.

We've stayed in this great little community campground while visiting McCook. It's on the main East/West highway so there's some road noise. The train tracks are close by in the back but the trees block most of that noise. It's well kept and maintained by the city of McCook. The restrooms are clean but kind of dated. Most campers are RV's but we also see some tent and sleep-in-the-car campers. There's electric and water service at all the sites and a dump station near the front of the campground. Great stop over for travelers or visitor like us. We always voluntarily pay to support the campground but you can stay for free if you desire.

Although it is a free campground with electric at all sites, water available, clean bathrooms and dump station they do state that donations are appreciated. I saw folks in Class A’s and 5th wheelers dumping and driving off without leaving anything and a Class A hooked up to electric that didn’t pay anything. I know that it says “free” but if more people don’t start supporting these “free” parks they may start charging a fee to just park there.

Don’t pass this little gem up! Free campsite in lovely little park with 50 amp electric! We arrived about 4 pm and two other 5 th wheelers were there. Can accommodate big rigs, ours is 38 ft and our spot was nice. Nice grassy area in center of park, campsites are around perimeter of the park. Do be careful with entry to park, a bit of a hairpin turn but manageable. Did not use restrooms so cannot comment. Some road noise but again not a big problem- slept well.

The campground is well maintained, has clean facilities (although old), and in a fairly quiet area east of the town. We came at 7pm thinking we'd be lucky to get a site, let alone an electric one, but there were 3 open. Shade trees surround the property. It is a very relaxing place! The City of McCook is so nice to open this up to travelers free of charge (although they will accept donations). In the morning there were several campers entering to use the free dump site as well. We will stop here again.

This is a great little spot McCook with seven available sites. The sites are just pull over so they’re super easy to get in and out of. There’s a bathroom but it’s in a bit of ill repair. I spoke to a man who works for the city who says they’re about to tear down the bathroom and put up a new one. This is a great place to stop for a night or two if you’re passing through this area.

We really appreciated the free campground with 30/50 amp hook ups! However, we were expecting and planning on having access to water to fill up our tank, shower, etc. Alas, no water anywhere; not even in the sinks, toilets and showers in the bathhouse. No explanation, and no communication from the groundskeeper who saw us hooking up to the spigot either. The turn into the park is Very tight; we could not negotiate the turn and had to stop and unhook our toad while it was partially in the 4 lane highway. This morning something akin to pile-driving started at about 630 am, but it only lasted for 5 minutes or so. All that aside, it was nice, clean and free. There is a Walmart all the way across town where we stocked up on groceries. During the morning dog walk I checked the water spigots out of curiosity, and it was back on! We'll take at least half a tank, just in case we end up boon docking in Colorado.
