Customer Reviews

★★★★★ 5.0 Richard Skinner · May 2025

This campground is a childhood favorite and has continued improving over many years. I do wish they had more site sewage but not a big deal. The staff is great and even brought our passes to us at our site…caught a Blue Gill off the dock with a nice fat worm! Since then another Blue Gill and a Small Mouth Bass have been shared with me by the Lake. I returned all of them to the Lake. Fifty years of memories at this jewel of Topeka, Kansas. Learned to water ski here, did Winter camping even in a foot of snow, and many other great times!

★★★★★ 5.0 David Bottomley · May 2025

We broke down on the side of I-70 and were very thankful that Lake Shawnee Campground had an opening for our RV to be towed to while our truck was repaired. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Nice park, nice campground.

★★★★★ 5.0 Joyce Dohse · Mar 2026

The shower house / restroom was very clean and warm (even at 34° outside). Site 40 was very level. Campground is so convenient to Topeka, it makes a great home base.

★★★★★ 5.0 Holly Spinelli · Jul 2024

Beautiful campground with tons of amenities. We had a spot just up from the lake area. It was quiet, and the sites were spacious. The showers and toilets are clean and well maintained. We had a fire pit and a picnic table. The location is close to the highway, but you wouldn't know it. Excellent place!
