Arkalon park is located 10 miles NE of Liberal KS on HWY 54. The park offers concrete pads, water, 30/50 amp power for campers, and well maintained grassy areas for tents. Most sites have covered picnic tables. All sites have fire rings and BBQ grills. There are hiking trails, a sandy volleyball area, fishing ponds on the property, and an amazing playground for kids.  There is also plenty of room to set up outdoor games. A fully equipped bath house is available for your convenience.  For your safety, there is a gate that will be locked every night from 10 p.m. - 7 a.m. and several tornado shelters (which hopefully, we never have to use).

Arkalon park is named after the town of Arkalon that was founded in 1888 at the Cimarron river crossing of the Chicago, Kansas and Nebraska railway, a part of the Rock Island. Town lots were cheap, and people flocked in by the hundreds. However, the deep sand of the area was a serious handicap to the movement of horse-drawn freight, and the town never succeeded in establishing itself as a profitable marketing point. It was sustained for years by the large stockyards but by the 1920's most of the population had gone.

There is a wonderful view of the Mighty Sampson of the Cimarron Railroad Bridge that is still in use today.  The bridge was a new design, built in 1939, out of necessity after three different bridges at this location colapsed during a span of two decades.  The bridge is 113 feet above the river bed (which is now dry), 1269 feet long, and is a floating bridge.  It sits on pylons but is not actually attached to them.  It was a contender for the 8 wonders of Kansas Architecture award.

Very nice and spacious park. $15 a night camping for W/E can't be beat. Restroom with showers. Free firewood. Only downside is the 2 miles rough ride in.

we definitely had a little bit of a hard time finding it the night we got there because we went late at night, but the host Lucas actually drove out to find us and guide us to our campsite, which was absolutely amazing for us. Him and Barb were the friendliest nicest hosts we have ever had for anything. it was a wonderful stay it was super quiet, super cozy and everything worked amazing the bathrooms were very, very clean and it was just a very comfortable stay we will definitely definitely be back

It was great stay except for a cross country meet that was taking place in the park on Saturday morning.

Campground Response

Sorry about the cross country meet during your stay with us. We usually have 3 or 4 of them during the summer. If you are wanting to stay with us, it might be a good idea to give us a call before booking so you can make plans to miss the meets. Thank you for staying with us and hope to see you again soon.

Another fantastic stay at the park. This was our 3rd stay this year and we hoped to get another one in before the park is closed for the season. Unfortunately, that will not happen so we will look forward to next year. Park hosts are fantastic, friendly and we really enjoy visiting with them. The park is very well maintained and the two workers that are always there, I believe their names are Gerald and Daniel, could be wrong on that, are to be commended on their work. They are very friendly and always respect our space. Thanks again and we will look forward to next year! Spot and Sue Farley

Campground Response

Hey there you two! Can’t wait to see you again this summer! We will be there again this summer so come on out!

Really great value. Sites are level, 50amp, water and cement slab. The road is is gravel. Camp hosts were friendly and helpful

Campground Response

Thank you Brian for your review. We sure do hope to see you again this year!

Secluded campground. Don't let the entrance road scare you. Not real far off the highway but a long ride on a service road to get there. Have all you need when you go in because any services are a ride to get to.

Campground Response

We appreciate your review. You are correct, is is 13 miles to the nearest store, but I guarantee our campground is well worth it! Hope to see you again soon.

Love this campground. The road going in is a bit rough but camping is great with nearly level sites for our small rig. Bathroom showers are a little rough. Ice on site. Kind hosts. An inexpensive place to truly rest after a day of traveling.

Campground Response

Thank you for your kind words. The road in to the campgrounds can get a little rough, especially if we have had any rain, but normally, we don't get a lot of rain in our part of the country, so the roads stay pretty good for most of the summer. We have painted the bathrooms and are working to get them updated as soon as possible. Please come see us again. We would love to see you again.

Nice park. Great cement parking pads. It was very quiet. It made a great overnight stopping point. If I had known that it wasn't in town, I would have booked 2 nights. Would stay again if we are traveling through the area.

Campground Response

Thank you for taking the time to review us. We do appreciate it. We hope you will get the chance to come back and see us soon.

We easily made reservations and paid online. This was a stop along the way and we didn't know what to expect. Finding it was a bit confusing because we were over thinking it. Just trust the signs. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised! Clean and well maintained park. Children's playground looked new and safe. Water and electric worked. The price was fantastic at $10 a night! If you didn't use them it was $5. We will definitely put this in our travel journal as a place to return.

Nice people, groundskeepers! Quiet, peaceful but Verizon doesn't work very well here :( wish they stayed open past October 15th! We'll return for sure, highly recommend.

Ground caretakers Very nice! Area plush + pretty. Price is reasonable + appreciated. Restrooms/showers far 4handicapped. Not a complaint, just warning. Sprinklers run forever

Park is great. Quiet, private, green grass, trails and things to do for smaller kids. Giving 4 stars instead of 5 because of flies and mosquitos; might be due to the weird weather this year.

Campground Response

The weather has been a little weird this year, but thankfully, we have actually had some rain. On a bad note, that always brings out the mosquitoes. The flies are ruthless as well. Mosquitoes are pretty much gone now and the flies aren’t so mean any more…thank you for your great review.

This is a very accommodating RV Park. The park host are friendly, the grounds are kept in a very good manner. Clean bath house. My only down fall is the amount of grass burs and stickers. Its hard to walk your pets with out getting their paws full. I love this place and the peace and quite I enjoy here. Come every year!!!

Campground Response

We’ve been fighting those stickers and are having a hard time staying on top of it. They are ruthless little burgers! We are glad you love our park so much that you keep coming back. It’s always good to see you!

Very pretty little park. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay at Arkalon when I am back in the area. It was beautiful

Campground Response

Thank you for your review. We love our park and glad you had a good stay with us. We look forward to seeing you again.

When you turn right off the freeway, go down about a mile to the railroad track. You will see a sign for the campground. Then it’s another mile. GPS tells you that you have arrived right at the turn. Warning—-those mosquitoes are vicious. Otherwise, it’s a nice camp ground. I heard trains but it was not bad. No road noise either.

Campground Response

Thank you for reviewing our campground and thank you for making the directions plain. It can get a little confusing sometimes. The mosquitoes are much better now (thank goodness!) I hope they didn’t spoil your trip!
