This is a 5 acre spot just outside of city limits near Eureka. I have my mobile home situated there that I've been in for approximately 8 years. I have it listed on airbnb and vrbo so I rent it out to hunters, etc. as often as possible. There is a lagoon behind the mobile home that I should be able to have access made so that we can also dump our black and gray tanks there. Suggested Local Attractions:There are 3 very nice lakes nearby that are known for their fishing, camping, trails, etc. The hunting is great in this area as well. There are a couple of great places to eat in town as well as a museum, a newer library and a water park.

House Rules
The only rules I really expect are that you treat others as you expect to be treated. Please pick up your trash and no wild, loud parties! I want you to love your time here and want to come back!
Location
Access Road Conditions: This is a large field next to an old barn that we have used for events. We have used the field for parking. I will most likely be putting in a couple (?) of RV hook up areas in this field within the next year, but at this time, there is plenty of room for boon docking! There is water access in the immediate area for you to fill tanks, etc. for a small fee, if needed. The property is very easily accessible and is located just off of paved road. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: You can park your tow vehicle next to (or still attached) to your rig. I have just under 5 acres so there is plenty of space!

I'm a recent 'empty nester' preparing to live the mobile lifestyle! Details: I was born and raised in this community. I've raised my children here and have lived here my entire life. This is home. I have a small real estate company here and love what I do and the friends I have. My dream is to live in my motor home with my 2 dogs and travel to see my children, grandchildren and whatever might be on that road. I'm just loving the life I'm living... Home Town: My home town is Eureka, KS. I was born here and have raised my family here. This is HOME....but, I love road tripping with friends and making memories. Favorite Boondocking Locations: I'm very new to this so at this point, they are all my favorites! Skills or Expertise to Share: I can share the fun, scenic and peaceful places to visit in our area.

Nice area to stay and host very responsive. Stayed 1 night right by the river on the bank of it and was nice weather and peaceful area. Would definitely stay again. Traveled in with a 38’ rig with 7x14 trailer and the turn in is tight but worth it.

Wow.. Such a beautiful place to rest. The little barn by the river was a perfect resting spot. We only stopped for a quick overnight, hoping we get back through the area to check out the river and cute little town of eureka.

Becky is wonderful and a busy lady. She is gracious and wonderful to talk with. Our two labs had the time of their lives running and playing in the large area of grass and tall areas. They have never had such freedom as we lived off a busy highway and were always chained up. I highly recommend this boondocking location. Thanks so much Becky!!!
