Double Nickel Campground

24 RV Sites

Double Nickel Campground in Waco, Nebraska, occupies the practical middle of the state along the I-80 corridor — a well-maintained family campground in York County that serves both road-trippers crossing the Great Plains and local families from Lincoln and Omaha who want a weekend outdoor reset without the logistical overhead of a long drive. Open from mid-April through late October, the park packs a genuine amenity lineup into a compact and personably managed property that delivers more than its highway-campground billing suggests. Spacious pull-through RV sites accommodate big rigs with ease alongside grassy tent sites and a deluxe cabin for guests who want solid walls without sacrificing the campground experience. A swimming pool, basketball court, mini-golf course, playground, and game room create an on-site activity calendar that keeps families busy between road travel legs, and themed weekend events through the season add programming that gives return visitors something new to anticipate. Owners Jeff and Amanda are available around the clock — a practical detail that regularly comes up when guests describe what makes Double Nickel feel different from a chain stopover. Pets are welcome throughout the campground. The Nebraska plains landscape that surrounds Waco is quieter and more spacious than the word "rest stop" typically implies — open sky in all directions, prairie light that shifts in quality through the day, and the deep quiet of agricultural Nebraska after the interstate fades from earshot at the campground's edge. Waco sits in the Platte River agricultural corridor where Nebraska's farming identity is most concentrated, and the countryside around the park has the particular flat-horizon spaciousness that Great Plains travel cultivates an appreciation for. Sandy Meadows Golf Course provides an on-theme recreational outlet within easy reach of camp for guests inclined toward fairways between travel days. Smith Creek Recreation Area offers fishing and outdoor access within the broader county park system. Lee's Legendary Marble Museum in Waco — a genuine one-of-a-kind attraction featuring one of the largest collections of antique and artisan marbles in the world — rewards a curious hour that most I-80 travelers would never think to plan but few leave disappointed by. Lincoln, Nebraska's capital city with its thriving arts district, Haymarket neighborhood, and the University of Nebraska campus, is roughly 30 miles east on I-80 and provides a full urban day-trip option for guests staying multiple nights. Double Nickel Campground runs its full season from April 15 through October 21, with summer peak weeks and the themed weekend events drawing the heaviest demand. The pool and full amenity calendar operate through the warm-weather season, and the campground's position on the I-80 corridor keeps it accessible for both planned multi-night stays and last-minute overnight stops for traveling families who discover it while crossing Nebraska. Book ahead for holiday weekends and event-themed weeks when site availability moves quickly at this well-loved York County family campground.

Lincoln, NE

Sandhills Global Event Center

37 RV Sites

At the Sandhills Global Event Center on the edge of Lincoln, Nebraska—the state capital and home of the University of Nebraska, positioned at the eastern edge of the Great Plains where the Cornhusker State's agricultural identity and its university town cultural infrastructure coexist—the RVUniverse Campgrounds provide one of the largest RV camping facilities in the central United States with more than 1,300 sites, full utility access, modern shower and laundry facilities, and immediate proximity to Lincoln's dining, shopping, and cultural programming. For RV travelers who need a reliable, large-scale overnight or extended stop in the middle of the country, the Sandhills facility provides the capacity and infrastructure that smaller campgrounds cannot approach when events and large gatherings drive regional demand. The campground's site count exceeds 1,300 positions in both gravel and grass configurations, providing the scale that accommodates large RV rallies, event-specific gatherings, and the routine highway traffic of cross-country travelers simultaneously. Water and electric service are provided at each campsite, with water availability dependent on seasonal freeze weather during the coldest winter periods. Full hookup 50-amp sites accommodate the largest modern rigs, and a dump station and propane exchange fill handle the service needs of self-contained travelers. Modern bathrooms and showers in the FR8Star Pavilion serve the full site population with the cleanliness and organization that a facility of this scale requires to maintain its reputation. Laundry facilities, WiFi service available at affordable daily rates up to 50Mbps per device, and the Murdock Trail running directly adjacent to the campground for walking, jogging, biking, and dog walking complete the on-property infrastructure. Lincoln's position as Nebraska's capital city and home to the University of Nebraska provides an urban infrastructure context that most Great Plains campground stops don't offer. The Nebraska State Capitol—a 400-foot tower with a distinctive dome topped by a bronze statute of the Sower, considered one of the finest examples of early 20th-century American civic architecture—anchors the city's historical and architectural core. The Sheldon Museum of Art, the Lied Center for Performing Arts, and the Sunken Gardens provide cultural programming of genuine quality that the university context sustains year-round. Lincoln's restaurant scene reflects the university-city mix that produces dining diversity well above what a mid-sized Great Plains city would otherwise support, and the commercial corridor immediately adjacent to the event center gives guests the grocery, fuel, and restaurant access that highway travelers specifically need. Memorial Stadium—home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers football program and one of the most passionately supported fan cultures in college athletics—fills the Sandhills campgrounds to capacity on game weekends, making reservations essential for the six to eight home Saturdays between September and November that generate the event center's peak demand periods. The Sandhills Global Event Center RV campground is open year-round, with full utility access most reliable from April through October when freeze concerns are minimal. Game weekend reservations should be made months in advance for Nebraska football home dates. The campground serves the overlapping populations of event attendees, highway travelers crossing the country on I-80, and Lincoln visitors who prefer campground pricing to hotel rates. Reserve early for event weekends and use Lincoln as the centrally located base that its position in the geographic heart of the country makes it ideal to serve.

Split Rock Park Campground

7 RV Sites, 20 Tent Sites

Split Rock Park Campground in Garretson, South Dakota, offers seven RV sites with 30-amp electric service and 20 tent sites on the banks of Split Rock Creek, sized for rigs to 40 feet with fire pits and picnic tables. A boat ramp and playground sit beside a natural waterfall where the creek cuts through pink Sioux quartzite. Seven back-in sites carry 30-amp electric only, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables — there are no water or sewer hookups, so arrive self-contained. Twenty tent sites cover simpler camping. Restrooms and portable toilets serve the grounds. This is a community park rather than a commercial campground, and the infrastructure reflects that honestly. Pets are welcome. The geology is the reason to come. Split Rock Creek cuts through exposed pink Sioux quartzite to form a natural waterfall and narrow gorge — a landscape of ancient bedrock and clear spring-fed water that contrasts sharply with the flat agricultural plains surrounding Garretson. A boat ramp gives paddlers direct launch access, with fishing, canoeing, and kayaking from the creek, and a playground for families. The combination of geological uniqueness, creek fishing, and paddling launch infrastructure gives this small park genuine regional draw well beyond its size. Garretson sits on the northwestern edge of town in eastern South Dakota, within easy reach of Sioux Falls. The campground serves the short northern plains season, with summer paddling and fishing carrying the demand and fall bringing quieter conditions along the creek. With seven RV sites, reserve ahead for summer weekends.

Merna, NE

Cuzn Eddyz Campground

17 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites

At the junction of Highway 2 and Highway 92 in Merna, Nebraska—in the heart of the Sandhills, the 19,000-square-mile grass-stabilized dune system that constitutes the largest such formation in the Western Hemisphere—Cuzn Eddyz Campground provides the full hookup camping infrastructure and the gathering-place atmosphere that traveling guests need to use the Nebraska Sandhills as an intentional destination rather than a windshield blur. The campground's collection of more than 30 vintage windmills—all different, all photogenic, all representing the mechanical ingenuity that homesteaders used to access Sandhills groundwater—functions as the most distinctive roadside gallery in the region and gives the campground a specific character that no amenity checklist fully captures. When the Nebraska Sandhills is the destination, Merna is the base camp. Seventeen full hookup sites with 50-amp, 30-amp, and 110-volt electric options accommodate the range of RV electrical needs, with eight pull-through and nine back-in positions covering the full spectrum of rig configurations. Unlimited tent sites serve the primitive camping population. A gender-specific bath and shower house with laundry facilities handles the practical daily needs, and the main office operates a boutique retail gift shop stocked with the Nebraska Sandhills merchandise and regional items that destination campground guests consistently look for. A covered pavilion, playground, and relatively large grass field provide the gathering and recreation space that families with children specifically need. A baseball field with night lights—a particular amenity for late summer evenings when the Sandhills' extraordinary light quality turns even recreational games into something more memorable—adds a specific and unusual activity option that most campgrounds don't provide. The Nebraska Sandhills landscape surrounding Merna offers one of the most genuinely remarkable natural environments in the American interior. The grass-stabilized dunes—rising and falling in topography that looks oceanic from a high point, covered in native bluestem, switchgrass, and the wildflowers of an ecosystem that supports greater species diversity than any other North American grassland—host breeding populations of sandhill cranes, greater prairie chickens, and the secretive grassland birds that have become increasingly rare as the continent's native grasslands disappear. The Sandhills' groundwater, the largest aquifer reserve in North America under this section of the Great Plains, feeds a system of lakes, wetlands, and spring-fed rivers of exceptional clarity. The nearby river provides the most actively recreational natural access from the campground—tanking, tubing, and kayaking on the Sandhills' spring-fed streams being the summer activity that Nebraska residents have built an entire regional tradition around. Tanking specifically—floating down a river in a repurposed stock tank, a Nebraska Sandhills invention that has since spread to other prairie states—is the most authentically Nebraskan recreational experience available, and the Sandhills' clear, cold, spring-fed rivers provide the optimal conditions for it. Broken Bow, the Custer County seat, and the surrounding communities of Anselmo and Berwyn provide the commercial amenities that a Sandhills camping stay requires. Cuzn Eddyz Campground operates seasonally through the Nebraska camping season. The spring and fall migration periods, when sandhill cranes move through the Sandhills in numbers that stop traffic on the rural highways, represent the most spectacular natural events in the regional calendar. Summer brings the river tubing season and the long light evenings that Sandhills camping is specifically known for. Reserve your pull-through site and bring enough time to discover what the largest grass-stabilized dune system in the Western Hemisphere looks like from inside it.

Timberline RV Campground

158 RV Sites, 10 Cabins, 7 Tent Sites

Timberline RV Campground in Waukee, Iowa, offers 158 RV sites, 10 cabins, and seven tent sites a mile and a half from I-80, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full hookup and water-and-electric categories join a pool, jumping pillow, and pond, open all year. One hundred fifty-eight sites run in full hookup and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Accessible sites are available. Ten cabins and seven tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and recycling handle the practical side. If the office is closed when you arrive, call 515-987-1714 ahead and they will make arrangements. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a jumping pillow, recreation center, arcade, billiards, ping pong, sports courts, and volleyball filling the grounds. A pond supports fishing, with a playground, dog park, and community fire pit besides. Pets are welcome. The owners describe it as country camping with city convenience, and the geography backs that up — shaded sites in genuine Dallas County countryside, a mile and a half from the interstate and minutes from West Des Moines. Summer is the peak, with the interstate position bringing steady through-traffic year-round. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.
