Cottonwood Campground

Unexpected beauty in Nebraska! We loved our site right on the river. This would be a great place for dog owners. There's a lot of space, grass, and trails to explore. The bath house is dilapidated, but has great water pressure. Our site was water and electric only, but with a dump station centrally located serving the 4 campgrounds. It's about a 20 minute drive into town for groceries.

all we had was 50 amp hookup,no water or or anything, like alot of state parks, but there was a water outlet right up the road to fill up, good water, the dump station was all the way in the back but that was fine, we had to go to the next campsite for the showers, the walk sucked but the showers were great, they are building a new shower closer but that would be done till next year the front office said lol, lots of trees which interfered with my satellite so we asked to move one spot over and it was no problem, they said go ahead. the beach was real nice. lots of people on the weekends but that's understandable. you are a ways from towns but that didn't bother us, we stay at our rigs most nites anyways lol. over all a real nice camp ground and we would stay here again,

Fairly spacious sites. We were in Lakeside campground and had great neighbors on both sides.
Very busy, popular campground between Omaha and Lincoln.
Loud air boats on the adjacent rivers.
LONG LINES at the single dump station Sunday!
Hydrants in campgrounds are NOT available for fresh water.

I have been camping in this park since I was a little boy 55 years not much is changed. Excellent shower house is very clean and the staff that cares. You do need a Nebraska state park sticker to get in.
