About this site

Recreation Although Council Grove Lake has excellent fishing and boating opportunities, access to the water limits these activities at Kanza View.
Picnicking and tent camping at Kanza View's primitive sites are this location's primary activities. Facilities Kanza View offers five undeveloped campsites most suitable for tent camping. The roofed day-use picnic pavilion has six picnic tables seating 40 people.

Although the park has many open grassy areas interspersed with large Cottonwood and Oak trees, access to the lake is limited due to the steep, rocky terrain.
