From Jct of I-70 & Washington St (exit 145), S 7 blocks on Washington St to 8th St, E 2 blocks (E).
We were looking for a place to stay in our RV while passing through. This is a beautifully maintained municipal campground. We arrived right as the sun was setting and left before sunrise so didn’t get to enjoy the river and nearby attractions. We parked in site 8 facing the river and were the only ones there as it was off-season. Note that the restrooms are closed during off season, including the toilets, so you’ll need to be self-contained at that time. Walking distance to attractions and restaurants (we walked to the diner for dinner). Would be a great place to stay for a few days and enjoy the town. Tip: there are brochure racks by the bathrooms where you can get all the info about things to do in Ellis.
Great little place! It's very clean and water and electric at each site. It's a good place to stop overnight when traveling. The police made rounds the night we were there, informing everyone that it was going to storm and where to go if it got bad. They were very friendly.
It is convenient to the 70, yet in a small, old town.
We got in around 5pm on a Friday, and there were still several RV spots available.
We camped next to some great locals and spent time at the campfire with them.
It's a hidden gem.
Very cool! A few blocks off I-70 but feels so remote. Nice campground! Right on the river with beautiful large trees! A damn at the end to walk to.
Pull through sites have hookups for 50/30 Amp. Picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Free wifi and a free dump station. Had a very relaxing and peaceful night. Policmen were on patrol. Felt very safe!. A short walk to town with many cool sights to see. Everyone was super friendly! Seems like they really make an effort to make you welcome in their town! Also, great pricing!
Such a beautiful spot next to the river. We enjoyed a quiet evening and slept very well. City park, only $25 for the night with water, electric, wifi, and a dump station. Wish we were able to spend more time in Ellis.
