The Blue Hole Park, Salina

Our family LOVED this place! It's perfect for a hot summer day. The water was ice cold! It's a great place for kids to swim and explore from toddler all the way to teen. Water shoes or sneakers are ESSENTIAL. This spring-fed river is 100% rocks, stones, gravel and shale. We camped out two nights and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The park is kept clean and well-groomed. Wanda, the owner, is a sweetheart and makes some pretty good coffee. The entry fee + O/N camping price was $15. You can't beat that. The concession stand offers quite a bit to eat. They even sell floats and have an air pump available. NOTE: they only take cash!

This was our first time visiting Blue Hole and we enjoyed it. The camp attendants were very friendly and helpful. The water was absolutely beautiful. The park was clean and pretty well maintained. Overall we had a good visit and will most definitely be returning in the future.
