About East Rolling Hills Park (Ks)
Discover East Rolling Hills, the crown jewel of Milford Lake's day-use destinations. This expansive park welcomes visitors with six lakefront shelters offering sweeping water views, a sandy swim beach perfect for summer days, and convenient boat launch access—all designed to make your lakeside adventure effortless and memorable.
East Rolling Hills is described as a day use park with six reservable shelters offering lake views and recreational amenities; it is associated with Milford Lake rather than overnight campground facilities.
Natural Features and SceneryNestled where the rolling Kansas Flint Hills meet the sparkling waters of Milford Lake, this 15,700-acre reservoir stretches across 163 miles of diverse shoreline fed by the Republican River. The lake's vast expanse creates Kansas's third-largest wetland ecosystem, a thriving haven where waterfowl glide across morning mists, shorebirds wade through shallow coves, and wildlife flourishes along the water's edge. Whether you're watching the sun rise over gentle prairie hills or spotting a great blue heron fishing in the shallows, the natural beauty here tells the timeless story of where prairie grasslands embrace inland waters.
Geological RegionKansas Flint Hills region, where ancient limestone bedrock meets the Republican River watershed at Milford Lake
