Game and Parks temporarily closes areas affected by Missouri River flooding

Riverview Marina State Recreation Area and portions of Indian Cave State Park are closed immediately until further notice due to surging Missouri River water levels.

Riverview Marina, a 47-acre park just east of Nebraska City, is adjacent to the Missouri River and expected to see moderate flooding as the river crests Friday.

The lower portions of Indian Cave SP also will be temporarily closed; these areas include the road to the cave, the backwaters and lower park areas.

Both closures are for the safety of the public.

These follow closures or partial closures at Pelican Point, Two Rivers and Louisville SRAs and Ponca SP, where floodwaters have affected riverfront camping and amenities. Schilling, Marsh Wren and Harold W. Anderson wildlife management areas also are closed after flooding damaged or limited access roads.

Guests planning a trip to a state park or recreation area along the Platte or Missouri rivers should call ahead for the latest conditions. Find contact information at OutdoorNebraska.gov.
