Nice quiet place. Sign says no swimming but locals and I did. A little tired- picnic table falling apart and fire ring is just rocks, but on a Thursday night I had the resevoir to myself quite a bit. Some infrequent road noise
Report Check-InBeautiful flat spot next to the water. Mosquitos kept us closed up indoors, unfortunately. This spot was just out of cell range but connectivity quickly restored on the main road.
Report Check-InWonderful spot! Quiet all night. Beautiful sunset. There’s a huge gravel pull through drive up by the road that I believe is for boaters to store their trailer and TV while boating. Probably empty at night. The whole place was empty when we stayed-in December. Big rigs would fit up there easily. We stayed down next to the lake, past the boat ramp with a pick-up and 20 foot trailer.
Report Check-InGreat place to spend the might. Plenty of space for even the biggest RV. No road noise and decent cell signal. Worth the small detour off I-80.

This is an amazing spot. Well worth the detour off I-80. Only 3miles/ 6 minutes.
Nice and quite, no road noise, no street light pollution, no sounds of travelers coming and going or generators. It was nice to wake up in the morning and step out onto dirt instead of pavement. 2 fire pits but plenty of space for others. I was the only one last night. I didn’t expect to find something like this in Nebraska.

Report Check-InA boat ramp with a dock. There’s one developed campsite with a campfire ring and there’s somebody camped right near the boat ramp. There’s also a short road you could walk down to set up tents. At 1 o’clock in the morning the highschoolers showed up, walked around my campsite, had a beer and left. At about 3 o’clock in the morning two cars and eight people proceeded to set up five tents right outside my car. They had fishing poles, so perhaps they were getting there early to fish. You could camp down at potters pasture, old camp, or go even further and camp at potters pasture, new camp if the spot is already taken..
Report Check-InQuiet place as described. We parked under the trees with an 20‘ RV.
It’s not permitted to stay overnight.
nice little place to stay , way better then the rest stops I just got here but no signs for no overnight so it’s looking good. some trash but not terribly littered . rock ring but the sign does say no fires . there is a little grill but it’s missing the grill . not the best but would stay here again over the rest areas .
Report Check-Ingreat spot for a night. could do 3 vehicles in fairly level spots. great for a night. would happily stay longer if not just passing through
Report Check-InThis is a beautiful spot. Shady & quiet. Locals were around before sunset and around 9am to load & unload their boats. They seemed friendly.
It was a little buggy in early October, but nothing egregious.
No facilities. Pack in & pack out everything you need.
Would absolutely stay again.
Report Check-InQuiet at nite. You’ll need levelers if you want to sleep straight. Great spot for an over nighter
Report Check-InOne site near a launch ramp, unlevel, a little trashy, but a nice view of the lake. The locals leave the lake at dusk. A little buggy but it’s summertime.might be more sites but we just stopped where we saw a space. Pulled in on a Sat eve.
Report Check-InStayed one night. Nice spot next to boat ramp, had a couple people going during the day but no one else at night. Only saw one fire ring but there is plenty of room for more people to park up.
Report Check-InWhat a great spot! We will be back for sure if ever needed. Ultra quiet and hidden from the main road and gorgeous, especially for Nebraska, who would have thought?
