The Outpost convenience store

Last stop before the lake.

Forgot the ice? Out of bait? Need propane an hour before the burgers go on? That's what we're here for. Pull in, we'll get you back out fast.

Beer & ice

Cold cases, bagged ice, and a cooler you can actually fit it all in.

Live bait

Medium minnows, worms, chicken liver, beef liver, frozen shrimp, frozen frogs, shad sides, stink bait and more.

Propane

No bottle exchanges, but we'll fill just about anything during business hours.

Firewood & snacks

Campfire wood, chips, candy, jerky — road-trip essentials.

Fishing gear

Tackle, line and the little things you always forget.

Kayak rentals

Booked right here at the counter. Jackets and paddles included.

Inside The Outpost convenience store — snacks, drinks, apparel and lake gear

Good to know

Fishing licenses
We don't sell them, but you can grab a Kansas state license online in a couple minutes at ksoutdoors.com.
Park entry fees
There's a self-service kiosk at the west entrance — it's on your right by the brown hut.
Cabins
We aren't part of the state park, but their cabins are great and we recommend them often.
