School Creek Camground

About

School Creek Campground sits directly on the banks of Milford Lake, the largest man-made lake in Kansas with 15,700 surface acres and 163 miles of shoreline. The campground is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and offers a primitive camping experience for those seeking lakeside recreation without the amenities of developed campgrounds. The campground contains 39 standard nonelectric campsites divided between two loops: Loop A with 14 sites and Loop B with 25 sites. Each loop has vault restrooms located nearby. There are no water or electric hookups, and campers must bring their own drinking water. A boat ramp with dock provides direct lake access for boating and fishing. What sets School Creek apart is its proximity to the School Creek ORV area, which offers ATV and off-road vehicle trails accessible to riders of all ages and skill levels. The combination of lakeside camping and ORV access makes this a unique destination. Nearby attractions include hiking trails at Milford State Park (Waterfall Trail and Crystal Trail), a wildlife viewing tower, and the Milford Education Center and Fish Hatchery below the dam.
