About
Perry Park is a day-use recreation area situated near the dam on the south end of Perry Lake in Jefferson County, Kansas. Managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, the facility offers two reservable group picnic shelters: the Dedication Point Shelter and the Beach Shelter. These covered shelters are designed for large parties, family reunions, and group gatherings rather than overnight camping. The location provides easy access to the nearby marina and the US Army Corps of Engineers lake information center. Perry Lake itself spans 12,000 surface acres with 159 miles of shoreline, earning it the nickname "paradise on the plains." The lake is known for excellent sailing conditions and fishing opportunities including white crappie, flathead catfish, walleye, white bass, and channel catfish. For traditional overnight camping at Perry Lake, visitors should consider the other Corps campgrounds: Slough Creek, Rock Creek, Old Town, or Longview, which offer individual campsites with various amenities including electric and water hookups.
Directions
From Highway 24 in Perry, Kansas, take Ferguson Road north for 3 miles, then turn west onto 43rd Street and follow signs into the park.
