You won't believe you are still in Kansas! C2T Ranch is a working regenerative cattle ranch, with over 4 miles of Saline River running through it. Amazing 150' tall limestone cliffs rise above river and several spring fed creeks feed into the river. There is hiking galore in the canyons or on the cliffs, fishing in the rivers, or bird watching on the native prairie above the cliffs. Fossil hunters can find a variety of fossilized shells, as well as native septarian and calcite for the rockhounds. Our picturesque, secluded campground has primitive and powered campsites, plus several glamping tent, all dispersed along an amazing horseshoe bend of the Saline River, each with direct river access. We're only a 20 minute drive north of Hays, Kansas and I-70, come visit us today!

Loved this campground! The privacy of each site was exactly what we were after. My kids had a great time exploring and already are asking when they can come back. Thanks!!

Camp here if you value relaxation!
I’ve camped at C2T many times now in all seasons and I just love it. Chad and Cynthia are excellent hosts. Our favorite spot is Wanda’s (2 camper hookups for power and water). This is probably one of the prettiest places to camp in Kansas. Plenty of shade, peaceful and relaxing.

If you are looking for a place to camp, find some peace, and get away from the stresses of life— this is the place for you. I stayed here for what I intended on just being one night while I drive across America. Had to stay for a second night. It’s worth it. You just have to trust me and go. If you’re debating, don’t. If you’re thinking, stop. Just book it and Chad & Cynthia will take care of you and make sure you are at ease (they’re good people). 11/10 recommend.
