About this campground

Elk City State Park in Independence Kansas provides full and partial hookup RV and tent camping adjacent to a recreational lake. Ample outdoor activities and games.

What campers say

Elk City State Park is a well-kept, scenic spot with clear, well-marked hiking and biking trails, overlooks with great sunset views, good fishing and a usable boat ramp. Campsites tend to be roomy (including waterfront options) and wildlife — deer, herons, geese and beavers — are commonly seen. Practical tradeoffs include some exposed sites with limited shade and variable restroom/shower conditions: many visitors praise cleanliness, but others report weak water pressure or awkward fixtures and longer walks to facilities from remote tent loops. Overall it’s a peaceful, family-friendly park worth returning to.
