We left the campground in Ogallala, Nebraska around 9:30am. The weather was cool, humid, with heavy overcast. About noon the rain started. It was very heavy through Lincoln and Omaha and in some parts of western Iowa. We had lunch at a Wendy’s restaurant in Grand Island. We got off at the 2nd Grand Island exit and the drive into town was Very Long! Very few choices for gasoline. We arrived in Waukee (Exit 117 on I-80 Eastbound) at about 5:15pm, stopped at a HyVee store to pick up dinner and a few items. Checked into the campground at 6:30pm.
The campground is in a wooded, rural area on the west side of a small lake. The trees in the campground are lovely, old, and very tall. Some sites are not very level. Several of the pull-through sites are water / electricity only, no sewer. The dump station is close and convenient on the way out.
Wifi is just OK. 0.5mb up and down. Strong signal at our campsite.
We camped in site 29, a pull-through with water and electric. Hookups were convenient and in good shape. Marta, the check-in clerk, is a delight.
What is needed to get to 5 stars: More level sites, better wifi, more pull-through sites with sewer.
