Sante Fe Trail at Council Grove Lake in Kansas has a park policy of allowing 14 days in a site and then requiring the camper to leave the park for 24 hours before returning. Once they return, they must chose a different site. I had different sites during my 14 day stay the first 2 weeks of July and had left for 2 days and the recreation .gov site would not let me reserve any additional sites for the month of July because of their policy only allowing 14 days of reservations in a 30 day period. The Corp of Engineers Tulsa District is in charge of this lake and one of the park officers in previous years helped the gate attendant circumvent the reservation program to register me for additional days once I meant their park rules which I had. I was not able to make any reservations which is in direct conflict with their own park policy of staying in their park. I had to purchase a senior lifetime pass for my wife in order to make my additional reservations under her name. I have camped in this park for the last 30 years and always love my stay. They do a wonderful job of keeping up the park. My only complaint is that the Tulsa District Corp of Engineers needs to get their act together concerning their site reservation policy. I was born and raised in the nearby community of Paxico Kansas and we now reside in Florida and come back for a month in the summer. This policy needs to be reviewed and corrected for the gate attendants to be able to make reservations and serve their guest.
