At the heart of the largest intact prairie grassland on the planet in the Nebraska Sandhills, Seven Pines Ranch hosts self-contained RV and tent camping along the Middle Loup River near Seneca. Great for kayaking (Two-Hour Kayak Adventures available), tubing, summer wading, fishing and abundant wildlife, the night skies are phenomenal. The area is designated as an international dark sky reserve. The camp amenities include water, firewood and an authentic outhouse on site. There’s plenty of open space for your pets to run. We only book one at a time, so you have the whole campsite to yourself.At the heart of the largest intact prairie grassland on the planet in the Nebraska Sandhills, Seven Pines Ranch hosts self-contained RV and tent camping along the Middle Loup River near Seneca.

Railroad traffic nearby.
It's a beautiful spot, great host, but the railroad is just across the river and has a nearby crossing. Major line, so at least 4 loud wake ups in the night. Otherwise, this is a wonderful site. Not sure this could be improved,it just is what it is.

Bob was a great host and it was a pleasure hearing his knowledge about the geology of the middle loup river. He has a great place on the in one of the most beautiful parts of Nebraska. The only real downside is the trains.

Excellent campground
It was very beautiful, close to trains so those were a little loud at night cause of their horns, but besides that it was incredible. Outhouse was clean, access to the water was fabulous stars were untouched. Very thankful. And Bob shared his homegrown tomatoes with us

A perfect space for camping and enjoying the Middle Loup river! Easy to find. No traffic. Beautiful Sandhills for a long or short bike ride. Peaceful kayaking. Both the nearby towns of Thedford and Mullen have good eating choices if you want to head to town for a meal. Bob the rancher is so accommodating and friendly! His bulls come in for a drink and to say hello to him. The deer also come and graze in the yard. It’s all so lovely!! You won’t want to pack up and leave!! One side note….pack ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. The train whistles are constant. Ha ha. Luckily I can sleep through anything!
