Meade State Lake and Park
The
Meade State lake and park is located twelve miles southwest of Meade on Highway
K23.
The first state lake in Kansas, Meade Lake is an oasis in the agricultural lands
of Southwest Kansas. The Lake Park is 443 acres and provides visitors with
fishing, camping and swimming. Boating is restricted to fishing boats, and
campers can enjoy electrical hookups, a dumping station, bathhouses and a beach.
Wildlife enthusiasts will find the lake area a wonderful observation ground. The
wildlife preserve west of the lake provides great hiking and exploring as well
as a nature trail.
Considered by many the top spot in the central United States for bird watching,
the lake area is inhabited by over 300 species.
From April 15 to October 15, Meade State park is open to accommodate campers,
fishermen and park users. Vehicle and camping permits are available at the park
office along with fishing licenses, hunting licenses, and 30-day boating
permits.
