It’s more accurate to describe this place as a city public park with sites for campers: there are no owners or rangers stationed here providing customer service.

That said, this is a pretty convenient camping spot. As the park website says, the east side has 18 pull-through sites, the west side has 10 back-in sites. All sites have water and electric (50/30 amp) hookups (note that the water may be shut off in the winter months; the spigots are not insulated, at least not on the east side). There is a bathhouse (showers and restrooms) and a dump station on the west side. There are trash cans near the sites. The first 48 hours of your stay are free; after that it’s $10 a night, which you pay in cash by placing an envelope in a drop-box.

There is no reservation system, so sites are first-come, first-serve. We have parked/camped here three times now and we never saw all the sites in use. We come here when we need to drop off our fifth-wheel for repairs at the Kansas RV Center, which is just down the road from the park.

I get a strong enough signal with my Verizon hotspot and MIMO antenna that I can stream TV. Didn't really use my AT&T bandwidth but didn't notice any issues.

Camp here free for 48HRs and then $10 a night after the that. 1-10 sites are on the east side of the campground and are back in sites. 11-28 are pull thru. All sites have electric and water. There is a dump station on site on the east side. Restrooms were not cleanest but I've seen worst. This campground can handle big rigs.

Been here a couple of times as we get our rig serviced at the Kansas RV Center, just down the road from the park. Stayed here in early March, 2020. A park right inside the city, the spots are in the midst of softball fields. Those on the east side are pull thrus while the west side spots are back ins with a bath house. All have water and electric and there is a dump station on the west side. While the east end is a more traditional campground set up, it may not be the best choice for a large trailer if you want to remain hooked up for a night. Those spots don't seem long enough for that. Much more room for staying hitched up on the west side, which is more like a parking lot. On the west side, there is one spot which you can parallel park and have your door face the ball fields. That is what we chose on this trip. Feels more like camping that way.
No doubt worth a stop if you find yourself in the area. If we return to the Kansas RV Center again, we would most definitely stay here again.

The pull thru camping was a little hard to find so we stayed in the back in. Neighbors said they turn off the water to the pull thru sites in winter months anyway. Bathrooms could be cleaner, shower head was only about 5.5ft up and sprayed for about 30seconds at a time. But water/electric hook up, dumpstation, and a hot shower all for free you cant beat that.
The map of the campground they have up is pretty faded, we ended up asking other campers where stuff was and they were very nice and helpful.

What a deal - 2 nites free and $10 a nite thereafter. Beside city park and ball fields. 50/30/20 amp electric. Water to be turned off for the Winter after Nov 1st. There were a couple run down camps that manager is booting out. Some highway noise but not too bad.
