A handicap fishing bridge spans the Niobrara on the northern section of the park which offers excellent catfishing. Playground equipment for the youngsters is also available in the campground. The tent camping area extends along three miles of extremely hilly, winding, one-way road. Grills and ground-level fire rings are provided for renters. Many sites are situated on elevated hills adjacent to the Niobrara River.
Cedar trees abound in the tent camping area, interspersed with groups of elm, hackberry and ash.
Backpackers will also find Adirondack shelters here. Grills and picnic sites are located at various points along the one-way loop. One picnic shelter situated on the highest hill in the park, gives a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside . A large population of white-tailed deer call the park home, and wild turkeys roam freely through the cabin and tent camping areas. Beaver, muskrat and mink prowl the river banks, and the varied bird life ranges from the majestic eagle to the tiny chickadee.
