There are some great year-round campgrounds in Kansas, and here at Only In Kansas, we are certainly advocates for adventures, no matter the season. However, there's something really special about summer camping. It feels like such a classic bit of Americana and it's no surprise that it's a long-standing annual tradition for many families. If you're looking for some of the best summer camping near Topeka, KS, look no further, because we've found a great little campground that's absolutely perfect for summer fun: Mill Creek Campground in Paxico, KS.
This is a small campground, but it's got plenty of amazing amenities that will make you feel as comfortable as possible, whether you're staying in an RV...
...or enjoying the back-to-nature feeling of a tent site.
The park has Wi-Fi, a laundromat, a shower house, and most RV sites include electric hookups.
Not a big fan of roughing it? Don't sweat it: you'll also find cabins available for rent!
The cabins are a great glamping option for someone looking for a little more comfort, and they're even pet-friendly.
The little ones will love playing on the playground, and there are also miles of trails to explore, as well as a game room.
The picnic shelter is perfect for gathering with your loved ones, or even meeting fellow campers.
The creek is a great spot for swimming and fishing - several fish weighing more than 40 pounds have even been caught here!
One of the best things about Mill Creek Campground is that it feels so remote, even though it's within walking distance of downtown Paxico.
