Lake McConaughy campground closed for upgrades

OGALLALA, Neb. (AP) — Officials say Cedar View Campground at Lake McConaughy State Recreation Area has closed to let construction crews complete upgrades to campground amenities.

The campground is situated about 15 miles (24 kilometers) 15 miles west of Kingsley Dam on Nebraska Highway 92 near Otter Creek Bay. It’s closed to public use until about May 24, and some aspects of the project may not be completed until this fall.

The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission says the upgrades will include new electrical and water utilities leading to 85 camping sites. Eight existing campsites will be updated to bring them into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, along with renovations to the showers.
