Eugene T. Mahoney State Park
Established Campground
This 700-acre state park sits on the north bank of the Platte River, offering a mix of developed camping sites with full hookups, primitive sites, and cabins. The campground has modern facilities including heated restrooms, showers, and a camp store. Popular with families and RVers, it can get busy during summer weekends and holidays.
Located just off I-80 at exit 426, it’s easily accessible year-round. The park features hiking trails, a lake for fishing, and recreational facilities. Some sites offer river views, though train noise from the nearby Union Pacific line is common throughout the night.
