Minooka Park (Core of Engineers), Wilson Lake, north of Dorrance, Kansas, September 12, 2019
Minooka Park Campground is a Corps of Engineers campground on Wilson Lake, a large impoundment on the Saline River in central Kansas. The campground is 6 miles north of Interstate 70, exit 199. The lake is surrounded by rolling hills and gulleys, making for beautiful scenery. The campground has seven loops, each with a pit toilet. There are also two shower houses and a playground. All the facilities that I saw were very clean and well maintained. The grounds are very well kept. The internal roads are paved and the individual sites are gravel. The sites have electricity and water. There is a dump at the exit.
When we were there in 2019, the summer had been wetter than normal, the lake level was high and several campsites were flooded from the high level.
Our motorhome is a 2008 Navion IQ by Itaska, a brand that is no longer used by Winnebago though Winnebago currently manufactures similar motorhomes.
