Reviews of Lake Cunningham Campground
Stayed in the East C loop with full hook ups and did not visit other areas. This loop is very new and beautiful with 41 very large full hook up sites including about 11 pull through sites. The park is beautifully maintained with lots of grass and trees. There is no Wifi but phone data works well. The bathhouse is new and fully functional and has $1 push button showers that lack temperature control. I did not use them. As is common with government built bathhouses this one is devoid of aesthetic appeal. It is a short drive into town for groceries, etc. There were lots of empty sites during our mid-week stay. I am told it fills up on the weekends.
We camped here the week after it reopened at the beginning of August, 2021. It has been completely paved- new roads and new RV pads. The pads are level and nice. We stayed at a site with full hookups; however, the water hadn't been turned on yet. There is water fill up and dump station on site. Very clean park. There is a decent amount of space between each RV sites. The camp host was friendly. I guess the only important thing to mention is they close / Lock the gates to the park between 11pm and 5am. Overall, great place to stay close to town but far enough from all the noise and lights.
Nice campground! Loved the concrete path for walking and cement slab for level parking. Couldn’t really ask for more.
We haven’t camped here as they don’t allow tent camping much but the lake is beautiful and have a great time everytime we come.
Some one said the fishing sucks......maybe the fish just don't like you. Nice lake....unfortunately people don't pick up after themselves. Not the lakes fault. Thumbs up to the family tonight 9-13-16 picking up trash at the #3 entrance. Very cool !!
Beautiful, clean campground. Campsites have generous spacing between them. Well maintained showerhouse and portapotties. Will definitely camp here again....UPDATE 7/7/18: Changed from 5 stars to 3...We booked 6 days over the holiday BECAUSE fireworks are not allowed and our dogs are terrified of them. We ended up leaving 2 days early due to fireworks, huge groups of visitors at various sites, loud music and partying until around 3 am (at least 4 other campsites packed up and left by 9 am on Saturday as well for the same reasons). There is no campground host on-site to handle such issues and the police visited every day we were there but as soon as they left activities resumed and at times escalated. The showerhouse was icky and needs repairs. This is still a beautiful campground and we will probably give it another try and hope our camp neighbors are more respectful in the future and maybe by then there will be an on-site host who can ensure campground rules are abided by.
Lake Cunningham is beautiful! Amy, Ed & Clint are wonderful staff members and camp hosts. We have stayed at full hookup sites and an electric only site, which were both great! The grounds, bathrooms/shower houses were always clean. As a new RV family, most of our neighbors have been nice and it’s refreshing. We will definitely come back next year!
Nice little campground just north of the city. There are free showers (albeit not the cleanest - they do the job), a play area, many water hydrants, a trail that goes around the lake, and you can camp right off the water or tucked back further into the trees.
Very nice campground! We were here for baseball tournament and really enjoyed the Omaha area. The campground was immaculate with beautiful water views. Very helpful camp host too. Would definitely stay again if in the area and highly recommend it!
It was great 👍. My Husband . Fished . Our Dog Enjoyed himself . I Relaxed . Just Beautiful ❤️🙏 . …
We went paddle boarding here. Water was calm and pretty clear. Someone said there are others here. Didn't see any but they said they come out during the sunny times of the day.
We're in the new area. It's all nice and new. It will be a full hook up, but for now it has electric and sewer. We chose to camp here because it was close to work. That part is nice. We like the park and lake. We are at campsite # 50. I am disappointed in the view. We are overlooking a ravine of green slime. On the map it appeared to be next to the lake. Only 1-2 sites on the new side had a view of the lake at all. Some have a nicer view of trees than ours,but I can see trees from my back yard.., The view is most of what I camp for. For that reason, I will opt to drive 40 minutes to work rather than camp here next time. It's $35 a night, going up to $40 when it becomes full hook up. The convenience is nice, the grounds are nice, but not worth it in my opinion.
Wife made her maiden voyage on the paddleboard today. Beautiful day out.
Great place for pets, kids and adults.
Cheap quiet Campground. The place needs some serious trimming.....dead trees and overgrown brush everywhere. Dust storm from gravel roads...you would think the county would improve and keep the place up.
Stayed 8 days, so nice.
The concrete roadway & pads were in excellent shape, and our campsite was clean. The site was a bit small, barely accommodating our 31' trailer & 2 vehicles. There is no additional parking space anywhere within the campground. The playground is in good repair and has activities to keep children entertained for hours. Adults may want to take a chair, however, as there are no benches or seating areas, from which to supervise the kiddos.
The lake is now open for business! Ignore the fact that Google says that it's closed! This is one of the best lakes in omaha, and one of the few you can find a good walleye in! I'm exited to see what the lake holds now that it is open to the public again and is stocked full of new large mouth bass! Great place for fun!
Peaceful and calm, until people show up then it's too crowded for me.
Reservations are 100% online. Campground is nice and sites are a nice distance apart. Bathrooms are nice and clean. Need quarters to operate showers.
Very clean. Great spot with full hookups in 1/2 of the campground.
So peaceful. The water is gorgeous, and has such a soothing effect. The campsites are set up in a good way, so there's a really nice sense of community, but they're not so squished together that you feel like you're sitting on each other's laps. And the pricing is pretty awesome. Only $12 per night for a campsite, and only $17 for a site with electrical connections. Love watching the pairs of Canadian geese with their adorable fuzzy baby goslings :-) Definitely need more lake time :-)
Very nice campground and lake area. Well maintained sites and facilities.
This is a beautiful campground that is very well maintained. My dad who resides in AZ has been coming out here for years and the new upgrades including paved lots, miles of walking trails, etc are absolutely spectacular.
Love camping there. Peace and quiet right by lake and have room between other campers. Only bad thing is they don't have really hot water for the showers
Awesome sites and all are close to the Lake. Newly renovated park includes level concrete sites and grass/trees everywhere else.
Stayed here for 4th of July holiday. Great place, clean and even has showers. Quite surprised to find out it was a city park
Been coming here since 1995 with my friends. So much better now that it's been drained and redone. Beautiful area.
Very nice park and campground; extremely well maintained. The only thing that keeps it from 5 stars is the online only reservation system shuts down @ 1pm and there is only one shower for a pretty good sized campground.
Wonderful area to have a picnic. Wish they had a good playground though
Beautiful trails and the lake is always peaceful and scenic with the sailboats.
Now the renovated trails are amazing.
At the moment, It's electric only, the water system is being repaired. Dump station has water. Everything is well maintained. Sites large, spaced apart nicely, and paved. Friendly.
My Yellow Lab, Big Chuck, and I walk the numerous trails daily. Peaceful, scenic, great exercise (for both of us), and Big Chuck absolutely loves it. Great family picnic areas with convenient parking. I only wish those who fish at night would pick up their trash before departing.
It is a pretty good place to go fishing. I suggest not a windy day because you'll get the worst of it. Also not that much shady spots but other than that if you want to have a family event or something like that you should come here
Loved it! Until i heard about the zebra muscle outbreak. Then i freaked out cuz i was standing in that water! They are going to drain it and treat it for net season ... but when they drain it where do all the muscles go then? They stick to boat bottoms .. but theyve got to contaminate elsewhere then though. But i kayaked the lake in mid morning and it was so serene and calm . When it gets clean i highly recommend this lovely lake.
Excellent facility and the upgrades are very nice. A great place for the family and many activities are available, they have a great six mile trail everyone should try, great scenic views throughout the lake
I really would like to give the park a 3.5 rating but there is no option for that. Nice big and peaceful place with long paved walking paths. A very nice sized lake and some picnicking area. The negative is they don't cut the grass very often along the pathways or in the main park area, so it gets kinda tall. Makes it hard to throw out a blanket and relax. Not enough picnicking gazebos, someone is always using the few that is there. Overall still a decent park outside the busy city area.
The first night was really nice. Real nice park. However, the second night someone moved in next to us. Barking dog never stopped
They had 8 other cars show up for party. Never picked up after the dog. Broke every park rule. Bad thing is no camp host to enforce anything. Where is the enforcement!!
Love it here
Peaceful, nice small lake. No on site registration so plan ahead! Bathrooms and showers are disgusting. Portapotties look like they haven’t been pumped or cleaned in months!
Still close in Omaha location and low prices are attractive. Cheaper tent sites are nice and higher ground too.
Expect mud after rains!
It is about the only place to camp in the city, everything else is farther from town. No on site registration, you have to reserve online at least 24 hours in advance. Price is super cheap. We did not have any noise issues, seems like a nice quiet place. Sites are spread out with plenty of room and shade trees.
We rented paddle boards and it was a good time! Other people were kayaking and canoeing. Boats and people. Fun place for a few hours in the sun. If renting paddle boards, etc. Be sure to check online first or give them a call.
Showers are hot and clean. Camping areas are well maintained and spacious. Plenty of shade. Nice lake but not a fish over 6" unless you're into carp. Here for the week during the 2013 Senior US Open at Omaha Country Club.
Clean, quiet, inviting campground. Best kept secret in Omaha outdoor recreation.
Beautiful campground but the washroom/shower house was gross. Site had a great view of the lake.
Nice lake and sites. A little disorganized in the main office regarding sites. Someone was in our site and the main office suggested we use another site.
Beautiful man made lake hidden in north Omaha, good fishing, boating, camping. Look at the view!
Quiet, loads of parties on the weekend nights. Dogs welcome on leashes, not all dogs socialized with other dogs, leashes mandatory. Showers,toilets, Porta-potty, 2 dumpsters, large campsite. Fire pit, picnic table at each site. Electric sites well priced. Reservations online only.
Don't just go there expecting to register and camp. There are new rules requiring pre-registration and use of a credit card over the Internet. There are no reservation capabilities at the Park. A sort of Catch-22. If you are contacted by anyone there, ask for identification! But WOW! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LAKE AND CAMPGROUND!!! Go there...check it out, It's worth the little extra effort to make a qualified decision that will give you a beautiful and incredible memory and place to return to.
Nice landscape, right in the middle of nature
Great crappie fishing. Nice place to canoe (no wake lake) and simple, fairly clean walking trails around the park. I usually park by the marina side of the lake and there's a small sand beach for wading and canoe rentals. The campground is well situated, but there's no campground host that I know of so you may be camping by Hufflepuffs or rednecks on any given night, so camp at your own risk. (ie. no penalties for barking dogs, etc etc).
Great lake near to populated areas of Omaha. Features a marina, camping area, paddle board/kayak rental, 9 hole disc golf course, and always a relaxing atmosphere. There are several entrances so be sure to check which you will need.
Beautiful lake, lots of fish, very well maintained, wide variety of plants and birds. Nice walkways, trails and paved roads. The lake water is actually quite clear as well. I highly recommend it!
If you haven't been here in awhile you should go and plan on walking along the North end of the property, fishing, playing frisbee golf, or renting a boat. This is one of the best kept lakes in Omaha and it is s beautiful in the spring and fall.
great place for camping and fishing! great updates love what army corps and the local donators did!! everyone is really nice here and glad they enforce rules to keep it clean and keep away zebra muscles. Please tell tactical 88 to lighten up a tad bit they enforce and do a wonderful job, just be nice about it, i love and respect the lake, i have lived in nearby cunningham hills since 1997. I hope the area stays nice and i'm super happy it is open again Thanks!!
All the trails are cement, and flooded / mudded over in quite a few areas. There are a lot of people in the after business hours. The Western shore-line (if you can call it a shore-line), is better for running.
Member of Lake Cunningham Marina for two years now. Love the sailing here. Outfitters during the summer months rent boards and paddles. No wake lake. No swimming. Good for camping and trail hiking.
Clean, quiet tent camping, Scott is amazing. We heard they might take the tent sites -please don't. We love camping on site 9
I love Cunningham Lake. It's a great place to go if you want to have some fun recreational outside activities. Or if you just want to hang out with your homies or have a cookout or even go swimming. I don't know if you're supposed to swim in the lake but I do anyways.
Some tent sites are in full sun..Others are well shaded.. fire pit needs cleaning, which I don't use because I have a biolite.. Water pumps all around here in camp. I've tried to use others including at other park locations to no avail. Anyone's best chance for tent site ㊗㊙ come between the times of 7am to 9:30am because car scouts invade. ...... 🚹🗿↔🔄🔢🔑🔨🔫📆✂💸📤4🚺
Very scenic very beautiful
Difficult as a kayaker to enter the same at the boat dock and insertion area. Can be overly crowded and people not being considerate of others trying to enter the lake. Otherwise, peaceful once on the water.
Like taking our dog there for exercise. There was a group glam & glitter... fairies this way. Had small ponies and pictures were being taken by those that belonged or paid. Interesting.
Well maintained. One major bathroom. 2 porterpotties. Nice fishing spots. Very clean
What a nice surprise. A lot of people worked hard to develop such a nice campground.
Great disc golf course, okay fishing, and just north of metro Omaha. Great place to de-stress from city life. Sail boat friendly!
Very nice lake area. Great for photography! We did not stay at the campgrounds, but did visit while in the area. We would go back.
Nice, small, no-wake lake. Perfect for paddling crafts. Canoes, kayaks, paddle boards, etc. Signs say no swimming but there are always people in the water.
Beautiful! Park.. River and Camping grounds
No park staff. Horrible bathroom facilities and little to none cleanliness.
No speed control epically with such dusty roads in and around the park. Good fishing for kids and nice lake.
Wow this place was so nice and beautiful n peaceful
Had lots of bites on cats pulled 8 out within an hr
We arrived late in the evening and someone decided to set up a camper at our site. She was not happy to move but did. In the morning I was able to see how beautiful the campground was. As the family started getting up, the park crew decided to mow the lawn next to us and around. It was hard to hear, couldn't open windows on the tent to change, and as we were strapping the last few things down one guy sprayed Round Up less then two ft from where we were standing.
Nice size fishing lake. Several different trails to walk and several different large hills perfect for sledding in the snowy season.
Nice park area, had out houses for bathrooms, no indoor bathroom facility, except in camping area. Great food fishing, walking, running, has trails some concrete and some not.
Its been awesome except for people speeding and the loving couple fighting half the night the last couple days and keeping the entire tent area awake.
Had a good time people very polite and good time fishing
Fun place for boating, paddle boarding, and fishing. The water seems like it may be a bit dirty, but not too bad.
The campgrounds could use a little maintenance but overall I love coming here to camp. And the view itself is worth the trip!
BEAUTIFUL!!
Love fishing in their lake there the lake area is so beautiful
Looks great didn't camp but saw major improvements to the way it looks
Great lake...took the kids of 4/14 fished from the bank caught around 100 fish in 2 hours...let them all go
less maintenance than other state parks. There have been break ins here so be sure your vehicle is secured
A bit close to the interstate. Also, inconvenient that you have to reserve your place >24hr in advance. So even if there is plenty of empty spots you can't pay as you go.
Need work on booking
Great scenery large spots
Bathroom could use an up date
Lake would be awesome when can use it again
Liked camping there not sure if I like the reservation system yet. Since no one is on site to help with people camping on your reserved spot
Love the outdoors but the showers were cold and invested with water beetles. It went downhill from last year unfortunately.
Great reno.
So awesome, smooth and soooo quiet on the trail.
Relaxing, nice place just to walk/sit by the lake and think. The only downside is people don't clean up after themselves.
Be warned. No walk ins. Rules changed Jan. 2018. 24 hour advance reservation with the city of Omaha. No camping for me but the place looked very nice
Wonderful park, beautiful lake and scenery, disc golf course is always fun.
Can't wait till they have more camping spots, need to find a way to open a swimming lake.
Great City of Omaha Campground, lots of activity options. No wake lake with sail and paddle board rental.
Overall I really like the campground the bathrooms were terrible but the campsites and the electricity were great the proximity to the lake was fantastic it rained really hard while we were there and the campsites were encroached upon by the lake
Beautiful lake. Great family fun at the picnic area. Wonderful place for family fun.
Very clean and well maintained. Bathrooms need some work but rest of the grounds are fantastic.
Good lonely place. Have multiple entry and view points to hangout. Little expensive but getting what we need.
This is the perfect spot to camp, kayak or just get away for the day. Awesome place to fly drones!
It's relaxing atmosphere I can't wait to come back it's a peace of mind after a long day of madness 😠 …
It is a nice place but with the lake being drained right now there is only 3 entrances you get in
After the lake was dredged about seven years ago it is very clean quiet and a great place
Very nice cement pads. Electric and full hookup sites.
Very nice park but it is closed currently for upgrades.
Good fish
Solid camping area with easy access to the water
Great trails for running our dogs and being out in nature.
Great place to camp. Kids swings, clean bathroom with showers and dumping station.
Nice park to walk in. Beautiful lake to walk around, plenty of parking on weekdays.
It is beautiful here, this is on our must come back list. Bathrooms are old but clean.
Could use some porta potties on the west side of the campgrounds and new picnic tables, should have 2 picnic tables at each campsite.
Great local lake with many activities. Camping, boating,fishing, paddle boarding, sailing, bike trails.
Amazing view and great place to relax.
Was very cool place to go fishing and camping such they got zebra mussels now anywhere Squad
It was great. Nice updates .
It's a lake. I've only visited for s trail run. It is a nice trail and scenery for ab run off the beaten path.
So nice after the remodel and lake opening
Beautiful Lake and facilities. A little busy sometimes, but sharing is ok.
A large serene lake with camping faciloties. Very relaxing surroundings with opportunities for good photography
Great area to come out for a run or bike riding.
Very peaceful place enjoy going there just to get away.

If you like sailboats, this is the place to come and watch them in the Omaha area.

I love this place! It's where I go to get a piece of mind.
Beautiful lakeside campsite with an easily navigable drive
Nice campground outside of Omaha. Peaceful by the lake.
It's not a very good campground. The lake is okay.
Updated and open public parks and recreational camp grounds as well.
Nothing says awesome like jumping in the lake when it's close to below zero! Polar Plunge!!!
Nice campground with a good lake next door.
This is a huge park with numerous entrances.
New trail is really nice!
Always a great place to hangout with friends. or fish
The trails are great and the lake is beautiful.
I really wish The city of Omaha would invest some time and money into this city recreation area.
