The Park Manager Mitch Schwartz needs some retraining on Customer Service and potentially park…read moremanagement. We got a pretty good scoop from a local explaining ( legitimized my complaint) the ill tempered Mitch and his Partner when discussing things like Park cleanliness, broken glass in the so called beaches- all which haven't been maintained for at least 3 to 5 years depending on who you talk to. Mitch the officer/ of sorts, had the typical can't handle truth from a customer attitude. I complained that they describe beaches and fishing within walking distance- while true, the beaches are littered and over grown with trash, diapers ( literally watch a staff on a cart look at the trash on the beach and keep going leaving behind the obvious diaper/ glass bottles and large liter bottle of coca cola right where my family was sitting at the tables). I described the beach conditions with broken glass, shown in my previous reviews online, and how nasty the beaches ( all 3) really were. Then, When I talk to locals, they describe the two officers as" hot heads that dont care". Apparently True- I was shrugged off and told the conditions were a " matter of opinion. Rather unprofessional to say the least. I have yet to hear from and of the council members ( I emailed all) and haven't seen a response. I ALSO contacted the New Director- no response. Apparently tax payers may not have a voice, but while the beaches look like crap and are unsafe for children, bare feat and all, the 40 empty pavilions aren't enough...they can put up new pavilions for the cabins but can't spend a grand or 2 to clean up their beaches. Terrible business planning and management. Terrible experience except for the camp hosts- and completely unprofessional. I may return but unlikely soon- that place looks run down. Ol Mitch said it himself, he " doesn't swim in that lake" No kidding. I bet his girls wpuld be caught on them beaches.

Such a cute park! The employees are so nice, and the campsites are very spacious!!! We stayed in…read moreHeimerman Point right on the lake and it was gorgeous. We stayed Thursday to Saturday. On Thursday we were 1 of about 5 campers in the entire Heimerman Point Campground. By Friday, it was about half full and quite busy- this definitely seems like a campground enjoyed by many on the weekends. I did not visit the onsite bathrooms to comment on them, but the campsites were very clean, the firepits well taken care of, and I love how there are labels on the campsites with your name showing your reservation. The parking fee payments are very easy to complete. The dump station is a bit archaic compared to other campsites we have been to, but it worked for the what we needed- to dump. We did see park rangers driving around but did not interact with employees in person, only by phone when we made the reservation.

Beautiful park! We started our hike at Buffalo Track Canton Nature Trailhead, which is located a…read moreshort drive into Kanopolis Lake State Park. This trailhead has two entrance points, and one is usually more manicured than the other. We didn't know there was a difference at the time and took the path less traveled and less tended to. Which was unfortunate for us because we were walking through tall grasses and brush, which was uncomfortable because some of the people I was hiking with were wearing shorts. So, if you want a more pleasant hike, make sure you're taking the hiking trail that has been mowed. Other than slapping away plants and hoping we weren't transporting ticks, the hike was great and the scenery here is beautiful. Our trail was a little less than a mile one way, and led us to a really cool cave with rocks that looked like the profile of a person! We checked out the cave for a while, then headed back. Once you're at the cave, you do have an option to travel down another trail to go farther into the park, but we chose to just head back. There's a lake here and other things, but we only visited the park to hike. We had a great time hiking, though! This part of Kansas is beautiful, and walking through Kanopolis is a great way to experience some of it.

Not very informative. They tell you one thing about the membership rules then when you do what was…read moretold to you they tell you different, I think he changes his rules from day to day. The so called owner is never there so when someone would like to tan after work at 5:00 pm or later you can't because the doors to the tanning bed are locked. Even though it states that they are open until 8:00 pm. The owner is very, very rude not friendly at all treats people like they are beneath him. Glad I am no longer a member of that place and never will again.

I checked into the gym today and the 2 younger blonde staff were in the back by the 12 min abs area…read moretalking and what I assume would be flirting with some boy about the same age.. they stood back there visiting for about 20 mins while one other female staff with glasses was doing paperwork and the gym manager was wiping down machines. On another occasion prior to this the same 2 "STAFF" were in the locker room laughing and talking about a boy and some party they were going to for one of thir birthdays while the other staff was working.. And everytime I come in while they are "working" they are never actually working. Glad to know my membership fees are being used for these girls to stand around and do nothing while on the clock. Looks like to me this gym is over staffed for this time frame.
