Inspired by the surrounding landscape, Edge Of The Road Camping Ground was designed to make your visit a unique, comfortable and fun experience. Here you can take full advantage of numerous beautiful views that are guaranteed to make your stay with us a memorable one. The property is 15 acres with a 2-acre pond. We have (large but gentle) guardian dogs, and a flock of chickens, ducks, and guinea fowl. Spring weather camping is the best! The campsites are secluded from the main house so you are able to enjoy the sounds of nature. There are no structures in place. Located in rural Kansas, 12 miles south of Topeka along the path of the Santa Fe Trail. This camping spot will make you feel like you're one with nature and is within driving distance to quality shopping and entertainment. Pop up your tent or park right next to the private pond. Sites are hidden from the road and secluded. However, we do live on the edge of the railway so the train will make an appearance during your stay. Whether it's a spot to crash before and after a day of skiing, taking a road trip, or simply shaking off cabin fever, this is the spot for you. The pond has a dock to sit on as you watch the sunrise. Bring your fishing gear and cast a line into our well-stocked pond. A table, fire rings, wood, and a smoker grill for cooking are provided for your use. Enjoy a day of fishing or strolling the property and finish off a relaxing day by watching the sunset by the fire. Camping is primitive with no shower facilities. A generator is available upon request. We can't wait to see you! Enjoy your stay!!

Tucked away gem
16 ft car · With pets
Tucked away in small Kansas town, I had a good nights rest here with my dog. Fully stocked with a campfire, table, tiki lights, a dock with a pond and a porta-potty. Part of the land is sloped but wasn't too difficult to find a level spot. I think I was told there might be a train running at night but I don't remember hearing anything except for what sounded like dogs or coyotes. Not too far from Topeka which was pretty nice town, we enjoyed the state capitol building and architecture.

Great welcoming Country setting
Tent · With pets
Edge of the Road is one of the best spots we have stayed. Randy and Tracy are really nice hosts. The spot is in a really nice grassy area over looking trees and pond. Nice pathways around property for walking. It was perfect for camping. We would highly recommend camping here!

Tracy and Randy were a very nice couple. The site was well maintained and very pretty. We enjoyed the privacy of this site and the trails that lead off of it. Seen some cool stuff and animals around the property.

Relaxation Extrordinare
Tent
This place is a little slice of heaven -- the hosts have gone out of their way to make my stay amazing -- chairs, table, BBQ grill, solar lights and firewood. The pond was filled with fish jumping for fireflies and three beautiful ducks were my friends for my whole stay -- Thanx for a relaxing couple of days PS I heard a shower is coming soon
