The facility was in great shape for all 3 of the group sites I rented. The issue we had with the Park Ranger wouldn't allow myself to rate the experience any higher. This is the 11th year that I have rented all 3 group sites to have a class reunion. NEVER have I been treated so bad. We have had the same band come play each year and never had an issue with the quiet time being an issue. We have the sound system pointed away from any other sites on the other side of Osage Cove. Park Ranger Piper sat at the gate and waited till 10pm and drove across the road and walked up to the band with people dancing on the grass on the other side of her and told them to shut it down. NO WARNING at all she then proceeded to call the Sherriff stating that she felt swarmed and in danger. Officers drove at high speeds to get there putting their own lives and lives of others in danger. If she wouldn't have walked up into the band and dance floor /band area and asked who was in charge and came and spoke with me she wouldn't have felt that way. When talking to the officers and Piper, I asked if there was a complaint and she stated that there WASN'T but quite hours are 10 pm. I asked the officer if he would be my witness of that statement and he sad "Yes". She went to right tickets and brought them back and one of them was "Having an event without a permit". Never had to have one before, so I asked her about this permit and were to get it. Hmmm she couldn't tell me, said "I'm really not sure". If she isn't sure where to get it then how can I know where to get it. So, I paid $750 to rent the whole site so I wouldn't be bothering other campers and then got fined $250 for trying to do what I have done the last 10 years. I think this whole situation could've been handled very different by the Ranger.

Always enjoy our time at Osage. Great campground.

We have been camping here for 12 years now. Love it and the only problem we and many of our friends have is. Dragging out 100s of ft. Hoses to the couple water spots and having to drag them over the road just to be destroyed by cars. And only 30amp no 50 amp. Wish they would finish the water project they started 3 years ago. Loop c almost got all water hookups. lol. I like site 42. But 400ft. Of hoses. No

Am impressed with the blacktop repaving project throughout the park- reallly adds to the experience.
@LoriE5535C5FD0 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #83
Well kept area and friendly neighbors. Storms got a little rough but everybody made it through just fine.
@SteveB8760E1DC · Camped on May 12, 2025 at Campsite #79
Facility maintenance (grounds keepers and campsite electrical) personnel were very professional and focused on quickly accomplishing the task at hand.The Camp Host/Volunteer was friendly and informative. Our stay was very pleasant and in a large part due to these folks.

We love camping at Osage Cove- for the most part. We appreciate all the recent work thats been done in adding water hydrants to some of the sites and the more recent road improvements. With that being said, we do think improvements need to continue. Too many times weve wanted to camp but there simply wasnt enough water hydrants. My husband prefers to use the nice campground showers over the tiny camper shower however there was no hot water on this particular visit. It was brought to the maintenance attention 3 times and nothing changed.
@RheannaDDF600F · Camped on Oct 17, 2024 at Campsite #77
The hiking trail was well maintained.
@Johnathan44319 · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #2
It was great just wished it had water. If it had water probably would of gave it a better rating.
@Johnathan44319 · Camped on Sep 27, 2024 at Campsite #69
Ground was to steep bathrooms on this loop were old and wore out
@KimberlyJ53701 · Camped on Jul 26, 2024 at Campsite #54
We liked this spot up on a hill, fit boat and camper in the spot. perfect overlook
@Johnathan44319 · Camped on Jul 25, 2024 at Campsite #22
Great view lots of room
@AnnetteL335928 · Camped on Jul 12, 2024 at Campsite #28
Love the campsite has a path to the water and the fishing is great and very well shaded
@lonnyw76E28E87 · Camped on Jun 27, 2024 at Campsite #28
The camp grounds was clean view was perfect. I would have given 5 stars but due to the dogs running around loose and barking at night I cant give it 5 stars. public showers was clean had hot water. Wish they would patrol and make dog owners follow the rules. Tried talking to 1 dog owner about jis 2 dogs barking most of the night but turned out to be the wrong choice. Maybe in the future I can give it 5 stars.
@FloydD0EA573BE · Camped on Jun 22, 2024 at Campsite #6
Really nice campground. This site was great with lots of shade and trees. Lots of room to walk around the campground and local trail. Water hydrants are shared and you need lots of hose if you want to hook up while parked.
@EricV1462766 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #90
Everything went well, we enjoyed our site and being on the lake. No problems at all
@DustinS9528869 · Camped on Jun 14, 2024 at Campsite #28
Other than the disrespectful people who shined their headlight right on me for 15 minutes while I was sitting by the campfire, everything was great.
@SteveG6282290 · Camped on Jun 10, 2024 at Campsite #63
Camping at Osage Cove is always a fun time, but we did have a few episodes of flickering electricity, they are in desperate need of 50 amp upgraded service
@Johnathan44319 · Camped on Jun 6, 2024 at Campsite #56
Lots of room fire pit is in a bad location
@GaryD2260868 · Camped on May 22, 2024 at Campsite #57
The lady at the gate truely loves telling you that youll be walking to your camper if youre not in by 9:59pm so dont stay on the water till dark or youll be locked out by the stupid gate
@AllisonADB3271 · Camped on May 16, 2024 at Campsite #13
. Nice & clean camp ground. If you need water hookups, make sure you check before reserving. Only 1/3 of the sites have water. There are several other camp grounds with all the appropriate and customary amenities.
@ZacharyCDB899C · Camped on May 11, 2024 at Campsite #74
Beautiful scenery and good facilities for a very reasonable price. Bathrooms could use improvement in maintenance
@Johnathan44319 · Camped on May 3, 2024 at Campsite #6
Worst camping experience ever the breaker kept flipping every 5 minutes just a bad experience we made it through it normally during rain and bad weather we stay in the camper watching movies but since the breaker kept flipping it was pretty bad

The natural beauty of this park and of Kaw Lake cannot be denied. Red rock lake shores, expansive views of the placid lake and breathtaking sunsets all contribute to making this a must-see. The USACE facilities however have all seen better days and are in dire need of repair, replacement and upgrade. Most all of the asphalt and concrete in the park is cracked, broken or missing entirely. Restroom and shower fixtures are vintage 60s and 70s but lack all charm and nostalgia due to their deteriorated conditions, and the restroom and shower buildings themselves are in dire need of attention too. The majority of doors did not stay closed in their own and gaps in walls and roof joints are haphazardly plugged with pieces of foam rubber. But perhaps the most significant concern for todays campers is that almost every campsite pad in this park has a distinct and often dramatic slope towards the water. Id wager most single axel trailers could set up and level adequately on these pads, but motorized vehicles will largely be out of luck. Even with our small 22-ft Motorhome, it was very difficult to find a campsite we could level on. Vehicles with longer wheelbases will be very hard pressed to safely set up their rigs on these slanted pads. Electricity hookups worked very well during our stay, and water spigots were located throughout the park although we did not use any of them. The only garbage disposal is a series of dumpsters located outside of the park entry gate near the dump station. This is a bit of a walk from the campsites and may possibly contribute to lazy campers littering their campsites. Indeed, we did find quite a bit of trash in and around our campsite. The camp hosts at the entry gate were friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful when we needed to switch campsites due to the previously mentioned leveling issues.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
