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!

I took my son and his 6 month old lab on a nice camping trip. This place is quiet, has great views, is very clean. We were greeted in the morning by the sounds of about 50 spring turkeys. Great place and will be going back again!

I only experienced a tiny piece of the land. Came in after dark, left before light. But it was very last minute and late but they still responded to the booked and made sure I knew where to go. Fully planning on going back and spending more time there, looks like some really cool places!

40 - Limestone Echo

This is an amazing setting for every type of camping. We stayed at Limestone Echo with amazing views of the cliffs. But we also walked around the whole area and wow. Every site has its own strengths. Chad and Cynthia are the perfect hosts. They are both responsive to questions from people interested in staying, AND VERY PRO-ACTIVE once you have booked. They sent us several weather updates and route recommendations after we booked. Chad waited for us and guided us to our site after dark. Didn't miss this amazing camp site!
