Nebraska Game & Parks lists this site. Someone from the agency inventoried it, so it is a real camp — not a spot we guessed at. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

Nebraska State Recreation Area (NGPC), Dodge County. The park's own page says: "Fremont Lakes State Recreation Area (SRA) offers Electric Plus, Electric, Basic and Primitive campsites in four campgrounds. Recent improvements to Pathfinder and Victory Lake campgrounds included electrical upgrades at 156 campsites, installation of nine ADA-compliant camping pads , a new restroom and shower house at Pathfinder Campground and a dump station replacement. Fremont SRA campgrounds are situated among mature shade trees and provide campers with showers, modern restrooms, drinking water and two dump and fill stations are available. Camping reservations are available up to 180 days in advance of arrival during peak season for half of the electrical campsites. Reservations can also be made up to the day before arrival at 2 p.m. All other camping is first-come, first-served. All campers should check in at the park office upon arrival. For those camping without reservations, please go to the park office to check availability and register to camp. Victory Lake East Campground Map Victory Lake West Campground Map Pathfinder campground map Fisherman's point campground map Cottonwood campground map" The park's own page lists drinking water in the campground. That is the agency's claim about a developed tap, not a field check, and not a claim about any lake or river here -- treat all natural water as NOT potable.

Confidence

Agency-confirmed — The managing agency's own record names this as a campsite and puts it at these coordinates. About as good as it gets short of standing here.

How it was placed

Camping confirmed on the park's own NGPC page, https://outdoornebraska.gov/location/fremont-lakes/, read 2026-08-17. Point from the NGPC Parks_Locations FeatureServer (https://services5.arcgis.com/IOshH1zLrIieqrNk/arcgis/rest/services/Parks_Locations/FeatureServer/0), the layer behind the agency's Public Access Atlas; it is a park-level point and may not sit on the campground loop. NGPC statewide rates, https://outdoornebraska.gov/parks/park-pricing/ (read 2026-08-17): camping Primitive $10/night year-round, Basic $15, Electric $25, Electric Plus $30, Full Hookup $35; off-season (roughly mid-Oct to Apr) all tiers $5 less except primitive, which stays $10. A park entry permit is required on top of the camping fee: $7/day or $35/year on a Nebraska-plated vehicle, $14/day or $70/year otherwise. Lake McConaughy and Smith Falls are the two parks priced off this card. Stay limits are posted per park -- several NGPC pages state 14 consecutive days in any 30-day period; confirm on site. Modern facilities (showers, dump/fill, full hookups) are generally closed mid-Oct through April. | auto:agency-trust 2026-08-18: state agency GIS record with a source URL and coordinates, confidence not low. Fee value is the agency's own, not field-checked. Not field-verified -- confirm access, road conditions and fire rules before you go. | nightshift-verified 2026-08-18: RE-FETCHED the park page https://outdoornebraska.gov/location/fremont-lakes/ today (HTTP 200) and it STILL states camping. Camping detail read off that page today: Electric Plus, Electric, Basic and Primitive campsites across four campgrounds; recent improvements added electrical upgrades at 156 campsites, nine ADA-compliant camping pads, a new restroom and shower house at Pathfinder Campground and a replacement dump station; half the electrical sites reservable up to 180 days ahead, the rest first-come. NGPC statewide rates were NOT re-read this fire; the rate text already in this note dates from 2026-08-17 and should be re-checked before it is quoted on a page.
