Clean, convenient, great location. Full hook ups are on concrete. Gravel areas are water and electric. There are tent areas as well. The office doubles as a little store. They have coin laundry, restrooms and showers in the storm shelter area. Very well maintained. I felt very safe there, everyone was so friendly and helpful! It has a playground and is next to a water park. Sits along the Winnebago River. Highly recommend.
This City Park is Fantastic even for Big Rigs! Concrete or gravel sites with Full Hook Ups. Our Pull Thru FHU site was $29/night + tax. Site B5. Large trees/shaded or sunny spot sites to choose from. Sites spaced nicely apart with plenty of grass. Easy On Line Booking. Pick your site! There is a big City Aquatic Center right next door with 3 pools, the river is close by with walking trails. Playground for the little ones. Downtown was a short 1 1/2 mile walk away. Large bath house which is also the parks’ storm shelter so felt very safe when weather passed thru. Quiet and very comfortable. Dog Friendly. Will stay again. East Park is a beautifully laid out City park with walking trails throughout right next to the Campground. There is a trail head in the Campground to access the Park right from there. Thank You Mason City for a wonderful Campground and City Park!
Clean and Beautiful campground, a little off the beaten path but right next to a Water Park and if you purchase your water park tickets from the Campgrounds office they are a dollar per person! I did faintly here a train in the the morning but it was time to get up anyway and we were in a tent. There is a nice playground located next to the office.
Love the camp grounds but the last 2 times we have camped there the Nats are terrible. Can sit out because of them or eat outside. Maybe they could be sprayed at that time of yr. They aren't other places of town. Restrooms are very clean.
Great place to stay. Very quiet and close to bike trails, river and city pool.
We are just getting back into camping after a 25+ year hiatus and MacNider was our third camping excursion. We were in town for a bike ride and thought the campground was very clean, and very helpful staff. Certainly plan to stop there again sometime.
Nice campground, I pulled in at 10:30 & the host came out and gave me an easier site to park for the night & he even helped guide me into the spot.
