Great for free camping/fishing without all of the amenities. Not very crowded, quiet, decent fishing, wildlife. This lake is relatively small I wouldn't recommend a boat bigger than a bass boat. It's a no-wake lake, so keep it slow on the boats! I've heard it's great for bass, but I haven't had much luck with them. I've caught plenty of crappie, perch and channel cat (up to 19 pounds).

One small boat ramp and dock. A few dug-out type bathrooms. A few small pavilions that would fit a picnic table under them.

Can get a bit windy out here. I think they discourage swimming but I've never had a problem doing it.

This is a great place. There is potable water. There are several sites. Creating a little map of which sites we liked most for our RV.

Overall we really enjoyed the place. It was relatively clean. Fireplaces at many of the sites. Several places with a cover. Dock and boat ramp. Toilets are available.

There isn’t much to do other than fish (hence the name). We didn’t find any little trails. You can walk out on the man made piers kind of like walking around the lake.

It is free, so that is awesome and there were not very many people, but that may be due to this time of the year.

I really enjoyed truck camping here one evening in March 2018 while I was passing through Kansas. Very nice dispersed camping with a few amenities. Saw wild turkeys, deer, and listened to coyotes howl at dusk. The fishing is excellent and the folks I ran into were very nice.

Went camping for a couple of nights. Had the park almost to ourselves the whole time which was great. There is no water or electricity but a water spicket down the road which we didn't try as we brought plenty of water. Area was pretty clean. No trash containers so you'll have to take your trash with you. I would recommend it since it's free. Can't beat that!

P/s: Plenty of coyotes around so if you have little dogs be aware.
