Campground near Lincoln Nebraska?

We are looking for campground recommendations near Lincoln Nebraska for May.

We need electrical and water, sewer would be nice, but could survive without. We are meeting a friend and her grandkids, they are coming from Denver CO.

thanks,
Dean
  • That KOA is expensive and very tight unless you get the premium sites with the deck/patio areas. We stayed there a couple of years ago when we meet up with family. I wouldn't recommend it unless you can't find anything else.

    I would like to suggest Mahoney state park also. That is where we are staying this summer on our trek through Nebraska.


    Edit: Can't Spell

    If you mean Double Nickle in Waco, I had thought of staying there, as we did once on way back from Yellowstone and it was a nice little park.


    Local State Parks and Rec Areas appear to be booked up on weekends throughout May.

    We have stayed at the Double Nickel at the Waco exit off I-80. It is a nice park and I believe it is next to a golf course. It's about 40 miles west of Lincoln.
  • Campaway or Mahoney would be good choices. Mahoney only has a handful of FHU sites though. DONT stay at Pine Grove RV Park, just read the reviews about the "over the top Rule Nazi CG owner." We've had several bad experiences there and wont go back.
  • We have reservations at Pawnee SP in May, 12 miles west of Lincoln.
