Wolf Creek (ks)

Wolf Creek Campground is located a few miles west of Pomona Dam Road on the north side of Pomona Lake in eastern Kansas. The scenic park appeals to family campers, sportsmen and water sport enthusiasts, and the 4,000-acre reservoir offers excellent fishing and boating opportunities. Fishing, boating, picnicking and hunting are favorite activities on and around the lake. Three nearby trails meander around Pomona Lake: Deer Creek Nature Trail and Witches' Broom Trail are short trails for hikers, while the Black Hawk Trail offers a 33 mile loop with several trailheads and is a popular hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking path. Wolf Creek offers 78 family campsites, 45 of which have hookups; one large group campsite also has hookups. Other amenities include flush and vault toilets, a shower building, playground, ball field, and dump station. A boat ramp and marina are nearby, as are numerous bank-fishing areas. A visitor center a short distance from the park provides educational displays about the lake and its environment, and the local sheriff's department and Corps of Engineers rangers patrol during the recreation season. Pomona Lake is situated among the rolling hills, mixed grasslands, croplands and forests of eastern Kansas. Wildlife and numerous species of birds can be observed at this secluded, heavily shaded campground: bald eagles, white-tailed deer, Canada geese, wild turkey, crappie, walleye and channel catfish. Numerous parks lie on the banks of Pomona Lake. The town of Lyndon, Kansas is less than 10 miles away, with limited restaurants and shops; this small town is home to 22 historical sites and the smallest Carnegie library still in use.
