El Dorado is regarded as one of the top state parks in America based on fishing, boating and family fun, conveniently located at the edge of the Flint Hills near three state highways and the Kansas Turnpike, and it pairs reservable RV loops with a swim beach, boat ramps, and long multi-use trails, making it the anchor destination for most Benton-area RV renters.

Reservations at El Dorado State Park are accepted by telephone, online, or in person, and sites in the Walnut River Area - El Dorado State Park are managed through the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks reservation system. A vehicle permit is required to enter the lake, and a State Parks Passport can be purchased with vehicle registration each year at a discounted rate. Private parks handle their own bookings. 4 Mile Creek Resort - RV Park and Campground, Camp The Range RV Park, K and R RV and Mobile Home Park, and Air Capital RV Park each take reservations directly by phone or through their websites.
