Camping at Turkey Point near Osage City

Public campground · Osage City · 43 campsites · 2 group

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Turkey Point sits on the eastern edge of the Flint Hills where the tallgrass prairie meets Melvern Lake's wide sweep of water. The lake itself covers nearly 7,000 acres and the surrounding public lands add roughly 18,000 acres of rolling prairie and wooded hills, so there's room for boaters, anglers, hikers and hunters to spread out.

“Best restroom facility around. Always clean. We wish that the campsite driveways had a better seal. The little rocks make a mess in our camper”

John F 5 · Oct 2025 · Recreation.gov

“This trip the campground was kept up way better than it has been in previous years. The hosts checked with us to see if we needed anything.”

Calvin R 5 · Oct 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Clean bath and showers. Grass mowed. Quiet”

How far ahead to book Turkey Point

For June weekends, book about 127 days ahead. Three in four June Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 35 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (9,612 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
