Campgrounds and RV parks near Pomona, KS

Pomona sits in eastern Kansas between Topeka, Lawrence, and Kansas City, giving RV travellers a rural base within a short drive of interstates and grocery stops. The town itself is small, but the surrounding area is defined by two Corps of Engineers reservoirs, Pomona Lake and Melvern Lake, both circled by state parks and public campgrounds that draw regional traffic through the warm months. Pomona State Park spans roughly 490 acres on the south shore of Pomona Lake and is the closest large public campground. Eisenhower State Park sits on Melvern Lake about a half-hour drive south. Both parks offer utility campsites, primitive sites, cabins, boat ramps, and shoreline access. Private options fill the gaps for travellers who want simple hookups without the state-park permit process. Homewood RV Park, Homewood RV Park and Campground, and Crossroads RV Park and Campground provide RV sites in the immediate Pomona area and work well as overnight or shoulder-season alternatives when state-park loops are full.

Kansas state park campsites and cabins at both Pomona State Park and Eisenhower State Park are reserved through ReserveAmerica. Sites can be booked up to one year in advance, and cabins are subject to a complete-weekend rule, meaning a Friday and Saturday night must both be reserved. A valid Kansas state park vehicle permit is required in addition to the camping fee and must be displayed on any vehicle entering the park. Daily and annual permits are sold at park offices and self-pay stations. Private parks such as Homewood RV Park, Homewood RV Park and Campground, and Crossroads RV Park and Campground handle bookings directly by phone or through their own websites and generally have shorter lead times than the state parks in peak season.
