Edgerton camping overview
Edgerton sits in southwest Johnson County, roughly 30 miles southwest of downtown Kansas City and a short drive from Interstate 35. The area's main draw for RV travelers is Hillsdale Lake, a 4,500-acre reservoir surrounded by Hillsdale State Park in neighboring Miami County. The park covers more than 12,000 acres of park and wildlife land, with 51 miles of shoreline open to fishing and boating.
Hillsdale State Park is the closest full-service camping option and holds most of the region's hookup sites. Saddle Ridge - Hillsdale State Park serves equestrians and trail users on the east side of the reservoir, while Scott Creek - Hillsdale State Park sits closer to the water with easy lake access. The park has 255 campsites in total, including 181 with electric and water hookups.
Beyond the state park, private options round out the choices near Edgerton. Mills House RV Park and Walnut Grove RV Park serve travelers looking for full-hookup convenience, and Kansas City West / Lawrence KOA Holiday offers a more resort-style stay within reach of both Kansas City and Lawrence.
Things to do near Edgerton
Hillsdale Lake anchors most trip plans. Anglers pursue walleye, catfish, largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill along the reservoir's 51-mile shoreline, and roughly 70 percent of the original standing timber was left in the basin as fish habitat. Boat ramps, a marina, and developed swim beaches support day-use activity in warm months.
On land, the park offers about 48 miles of trail. The Saddle Ridge equestrian area on the east side of the reservoir holds roughly 32 miles of marked trails for horseback riders, hikers, and mountain bikers. A short nature trail near the visitor center is a good family option.
Other draws include a public shooting range below the dam with rifle, pistol, and trap facilities, an archery range, disc golf, a model-aircraft flying area, and hunting on roughly 7,000 acres of wildlife area within the park.

Spring and early fall bring mild temperatures, active wildlife, and easier site availability at Hillsdale. Spring can also bring heavy thunderstorms and localized flooding on lakeside trails, so it is worth checking Kansas State Park alerts before arrival.
Summer is the peak booking window. Weekends around Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day fill first, and lakefront electric sites at Scott Creek go quickly. Days are hot and humid, and the developed beaches see their heaviest use from late May through early September.
Late fall and winter are much quieter. Some facilities close for the season, and shower houses at the electric loops typically shut down after the main camping season. Snow and ice storms are possible in the area during winter, and hunting seasons overlap with parts of the shoulder period on the roughly 7,000 acres of wildlife area, so trail users should wear bright colors and check hunting-season dates before heading out.

How to book a campsite near Edgerton
Hillsdale State Park campsites, including Saddle Ridge and Scott Creek, are reserved through the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks booking system on ReserveAmerica. Sites are site-specific, with check-in at 2:00 PM and check-out at 2:00 PM at most loops. All vehicles entering the park need a daily or annual Kansas State Park vehicle permit in addition to the campsite fee.
Cancellation rules are strict: cancellations within two days of arrival receive no refund, and cancellations three to fourteen days out forfeit the reservation fee plus one night's fees and a cancellation fee. Reservations can typically be made up to a year in advance.
Private parks near Edgerton, including Mills House RV Park, Walnut Grove RV Park, and Kansas City West / Lawrence KOA Holiday, take reservations directly through each park's own website or phone line, and holiday weekends should be booked several weeks in advance.
What to expect on the ground
Roads in and around Hillsdale are generally in good condition and accessible for larger rigs, with a mix of paved and gravel routes through the park. Picking up a map at the visitor center is worthwhile, as the west side of the lake has a confusing road grid. At Scott Creek, sites can accommodate rigs up to about 102 feet and offer 50/30/20-amp electric with water. Primitive sites are also available for smaller setups.
Amenities across the state park include vault toilets, shower houses at select loops, dump stations, boat ramps, playgrounds, and a marina. Cell coverage is generally usable on major networks but can be spotty in the wooded loops. Expect ticks and chiggers in summer, and note that copperheads are present in the oak-hickory woods.
