Cody Park

Whenever we come to North Platte to visit, we always make sure to visit Cody Park. They have a great concession stand. We only ever get the soft serve ice cream, which is amazing, with unique flavors at the best price you will ever find, but I know they offer other foods too. They have little rides for kids. During Christmas, they have all sorts of fun little displays. They have some wild animals on display, like bison, elk and caribou, which is fun. Our favorite thing to do is let our dog chase the geese.

We were in town for 2 nights and needed to take my daughter someplace to run around. I saw Cody Park on the map but had no idea what it included. We were shocked and highly impressed. First we saw a pool then rides and as we continued the loop an Elk swimming and deer! I didn't even know there were animals here. What a great surprise! We ended up spending 3 hours here. My daughter rode 4 rides for $2.00. We all had ice cream for $7. The playground in the back was amazing and we loved the trains! Pat the man that worked at the train museum was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We really enjoyed talking with him. Also the 2 young male attendants that ran the rides had the kids hysterical. They were joking with them and shooting the kids with water guns. They loved it. I highly recommend visiting this park. Especially the kids playground in the back.

This place is very cool and if you love trains, be sure to check out the Challenger X3977. She's a beauty and they even let you go up in the cab to show you just how huge she is. Its amazing!

Outstanding family friendly community park with campground, small amusement park, playgrounds, ball fields, train museum, zoo, disc golf, pool and lots of picnic areas. Clean and well maintained, day use is fee free and $15 for campsites, (campground is closed for season). I had 3 bars of Verizon 4G LTE Roaming, no wifi and 8 OTA television channels.

Great place to stay and camp a few days. There are no hook ups or showers, but this is not to be missed if you're in the area. The park is clean, well kept and so much to do. There are four playgrounds, a zoo, a pool, ball field and small amusement park area for kids with rides. There is also a train park where you are able to climb up into train, sit in the engine and walk through cars. They are also in the process of adding pickleball courts.
