We drive across Nebraska a few times a year and as long and boring as the drive is, Lake Ogallala and Lake McConaughy (across the highway) are true gems! ReserveAmerica was not the most helpful when we made reservations as it stated that there was a water hookup at the site (not true) and there was a dump station in the campground (also not true), so be aware. There are water spigots throughout the campground though and a dump station at Lake McConaughy State Park Campground across the highway... Read More

The campground was very pretty, lots of large, old growth trees and big, grassy sites with level, gravel parking pads right on the edge of the lake. Campground has WiFi available as well (for a fee)

Signage was lousy, had to ask directions to campground. Host was friendly but inefficient, asked us if we needed any help after we found site and had set up, they were standing about 75 feet away when we first entered the park and we could have used their help then. Nearest water point was 70 yards away, bathrooms - well, a sign said "major messes" are to be reported to management. It was Memorial Day weekend and the bathrooms had not been cleaned for at least a day.
