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.

Mesmerizing river.
Very nice private campsite (we had a tent), very nice setting by the mesmerizing river. There was a good toilet/outhouse without having to leave the campsite. Good firepit (and firewood), good picnic table, good trees. There are trains going by at night that sound their horn for the nearby railroad crossing.

A fantastic camping experience!
Extremely nice camping area, with firewood supplied. A cool foot bridge to explore with a wonderful creek to take a dip in. My family loved it. Bob the owner came out to great us and tell us where to go, and couldn’t have been any more nice, or helpful. He even went out of his way to help me air up my tire when my 12V inflator broke and drained my tire instead. We had a nice conversation, and I’d highly recommend staying here. There is a train that goes by the property pretty regularly and is loud, but the beautiful location, wonderful cool swimming stream, beautiful drive on 2 HWY in and out, and awesome host absolutely make up for any shortcoming from the train noise.

Perfect -and- Private camping spot
Perfect -and- Private camping spot on the river. Our family spent 3 nights at the ranch and we have no complaints! 1. Bob only allows 1 family on the property at a time if you rent the tent space or pop-up = Exactly what we wanted 2. The pop-up is great, no issues and it comes with Power + Gas 3. The outhouse is the nicest, cleanest outhouse ever 4. Kids spent 8hrs a day in the river on the dock and bridge which is about 75ft from the pop-up 5. Bob and his wife were WONDERFUL people, they checked in on us a few times to make sure we had everything we needed and even brought us a bag of ice and homemade banana nut bread 6. Exotic Animal Park is literally a 5 minute walk from the pop-up! Stable Productions animal park was amazing, a 2 hour tour for fifty dollars We will absolutely return next year!
