Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Tuttle Creek Lake adventure.
Discover the natural splendor of Tuttle Creek Lake and its outdoor adventures.
Holding space in northeast Kansas, the Tuttle Creek Lake area is comprised of 10,900 acres of lake, and an additional 20,000 acres of land surrounding it. There are six well-maintained parks around the lake that include paved roads, nature trails, an artificial beach, and are well-suited to camping activities. Two parks even cater to off-road vehicle enthusiasts. The northern half of the park is leased to the Kansas Department of Wildlife Parks and Tourism, for the protection and enhancement of wildlife. If you’re stopping by on the last weekend of June, check out the Country Stampede Music Festival that’s hosted here every year, and has booked superstars like Toby Keith and Travis Tritt.
The best time to visit Tuttle Creek Lake is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer offers a wealth of water activities, though it can be quite warm. Winters are quieter but can be cold, with some facilities closed or operating at reduced hours.
