This was our very first time taking our camper out so we were completely new to a RV park. It was snowing and in the negative digits temperature wise so it was an experience lol Staff was super friendly, facilities were well maintained and had plenty of amenities such as laundry, restrooms/showers, propane refills, dog park, and a playground. Even though we only stayed one night, the staff made us... This was our very first time taking our camper out so we were completely new to a RV park.

Enjoyed my stay as a travel nurse here with my main man Marshall! (4 legged kind) The park was always clean, excellent upkeep noted, as well as a nice doggo park and kiddie park. Provided scoopers and doggie bags were also a plus, with a trash can so you did not have to take this doggie bag home! For me though, it was the friendly staff, that if I return to the area, I would only book here!! Jamie... Enjoyed my stay as a travel nurse here with my main man Marshall!

Alex the maintenance man was so handy! He would see folks out and just help them; without being told or asked- rare to see these days! I really love the transformation they are building here!

Needed a one night stop in Wichita. It was convenient to my destination. And the facility is immaculate. Bathrooms and laundry are super clean. Also the owners are very accommodating.

It’s a very tight campground with mostly full timers. We were set up in an end spot so close that there was only 6 inches from the electric pole. We didn’t feel safe but thankfully it was for one night, Another downfall, we couldn’t stay connected to our RV because it was too short!! We were putout at the end and had to put out safety cones so we didn’t get hit

Our stay here was about a month. The restrooms/showers were very nice and always clean. Plenty of washers/dryers in their laundry room. Everyone was very nice, polite and welcoming. On the day we were supposed to leave the winds were horrible, we were trying to wait it out to see if it died down. We also had a sick baby we had to take to urgent care on our way we stopped in the office to tell them... Our stay here was about a month. The restrooms/showers were very nice and always clean.

On the day we were supposed to leave the winds were horrible, we were trying to wait it out to see if it died down. We also had a sick baby we had to take to urgent care on our way we stopped in the office to tell them the situation and to pay for another night. We were told to not worry about paying for the night and to go get our daughter taken care of. We appreciate your kindness and hospitality! Whenever we make it back to Wichita we will definitely be staying here again.

This RV park is small which was great and quiet for the most part! They do have a train that comes by early in the morning! The Staff that run it are very friendly! It was a great location for us to stay at for a wedding that was north of town! Would definitely come back if we ever needed to stay in Wamego!

Great little place to stay while visiting Wamego. We stayed for 3 nights and didn't have any issues. They have 50 Amp, full hookups, and laundry which came in handy for us. There was also a mishap with Rover pass and the owner was very helpful and accommodating getting it straightened out.

Great little RV park with a fantastic price $27 gets you full service water ,30/50 amp, sewer hookup and a dump. Spots are a long level concrete pad. Shade trees in the 30' wide grass between spots. A few spots have no shade. Small laundry and restroom.

Talked to Steve from Calvins on the phone and even though he was super busy he tried to make a spot for me but there was a couple days he was booked up that I would have to leave. He gave me a number to someone else and I made the plans for there! Calvin’s is a stand up place!! Would recommend to anyone!!! Give them a chance !!! Thanks Steve!!
