Description
Open year round and surrounded by the plains of northwest Kansas, Oakley's High Plains Camping, with easy access from I-70, US 40 or US 83, is the perfect base from which to discover the historic west. Our easy to use online reservations system will help plan your trip, and save one of the many available long pull-thru RV sites with full hookups or primitive tent areas for you. The Sunflower Barn is a popular place for guests to hang out, and contains a large meeting space for up to 100 people -- perfect or rallies, family reunions and socials, and don't forget about the hot tub, yours to reserve for an uninterrupted soak. Free wireless internet access from the comfort of your site.
A playground, 18-hole mini-golf course and a cooling Spray Zone for those hot summer months will satisfy the entire family, while a camp store, travel facility and clean, climate controlled restrooms and showers gives High Plains Camping guests all the conveniences of home. The town of Oakley is a treasure trove of western history, perhaps most famous for being the birthplace of the legend of Buffalo Bill Cody. A larger than life sculpture of Buffalo Bill hunting a buffalo is on display for all to see.
A visit to the Fick Fossil and History Museum informs visitors of the fossil-rich chalk layers of western Kansas, and presents many of them in the museum\'s exhibits. The Monument Rocks, also known as the Chalk Pyramids, are recognized by the National Park Service as a National Natural Landmark. These unique \'badlands\' were formed by the constant flow of the Smoky Hill River and are a worthwhile visit during any stay at comfortable, family-friendly High Plains Camping.
Directions:
The park is in northwest Kansas along I-70, ocated at the intersection of Interstate 70 and US Highway 83, in Thomas County Kansas.
Many locators will misplace the park by 20 miles. Be sure to head to the SW corner of I-70 and US-83.

This was our first visit to the high plains. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at High Plains Campground. Bath houses were spacious and clean. Lots of room to catch up on laundry. Jesse made delicious breakfast pizza and other pizzas. Loved the ice cream in individual servings. Easy walk to the steakhouse. We enjoyed dinner and breakfast
Lots of things to visit nearby. We want to come back for more. Enjoyed the Fick Museum and the Buffalo Bill sculpture and museum. Wanted to go to Monument Rocks.
Good space for our large dog. Fun to sit outside together
Love what Jesse and Jim are doing here. Eager to see the pub open.

VERY CLEAN
0 % of users found this review helpful
This facility was very clean! Very nice bathrooms, sink mirrors, and showers. Clean and roomy. 6 showers; 7 toilet stalls, and 8 sinks with mirrors, soap, and paper hand towels. A non-smoking facility. Drawbacks were lackf of shade and grassy areas in sites. Many activities -- hot tubs, pool, mini golf, play area for children. Recreational building with games and pool table is still under remodelling but useable.
