City Parks, Nebraska
Oakland City Park
The City of Oakland, Nebraska, maintains a quiet, shaded campground with six sites. The cost is only $5 per night for a site with full hookups. The park is open April to November and offers restrooms with flush toilets, showers, dump station, drinking water, swimming pool, and a playground.
Saint Edward City Park
City park with 6 or 8 full hook up sites. Located one block from downtown, small farming community of about 800 friendly people. Campground also has heated swimming pool and playground equipment. First night is free. Think its 5.00 per night after that.
Beaver Crossing Park
Very nice park hosted by the small, friendly folks of Beaver Crossing. Has four RV hookups with electric and pump style water source. We were there in late spring, but there was a pool, tennis courts, and a baseball diamond which probably is available in warmer weather. The people here were incredibly helpful and very personable and made us feel very welcome.
To get to the park from I-80 (we were westbound) take the Friend/Beaver Crossing Exit. At the end of the exit ramp, turn left and drive approx 3 miles. You will see a sign on the right side of the road that says "Business District" and has the little trailer symbol on it. Turn left there and it will lead you into town. Continue going straight and you will see a sign on the right that says "To the Park". The park is on the left and is entered by going under a large white arch that says Beaver Crossing Park. The hookups are to the right of the baseball field. The donation box is a red box, you can't miss it as you leave. Please do leave a generous donation; these are really fine people.
