Wonderful campground. The camp host was super friendly and extra nice! She even gave us a painted rock to remind us of our weekend there! The restroom/bathhouse is amazing! super clean, shower unit and toilet in a self contained little room, loved the privacy! The grounds were clean and well maintained. The camping spots were very roomy and we got lucky with a beautiful shaded spot. We very much enjoyed this quiet little gem of a park.
Nicely updated campground with modern facilities, north of town location may have less traffic than other nearby campgrounds. Lake had unpleasant smell with East breeze, host was friendly until I inadvertently drove wrong way on my loop. Boat ramp, ample parking, well lit fish cleaning table all were more than adequate. Some kind of hatch was going on while we were there, huge swarms of non biting insects made a whining sound that was a little eerie.
Great Campground! Freshly renovated. A handful of lakeside sites, some cement, some crushed rock. Pull thru and back in. Has everything from rustic to full hook up. 2 docks for fishing and 1 dock for boat launch. New bath houses but we were here off season and they were closed so I can't comment on them. I'm sure they are nice. Close to the road so you do hear some traffic but the traffic is pretty light. There are a lot of sites here but it's very popular so book early!
Has an odd beach that matches the name but not I'd want to go swimming with all the rocks. There is a water source to rinse off and a nice picnic area. Lots of camping and some nice sites but you can only see the lake from the non-electric sites. Not much else to do other than being on the lake.
Very quiet and nice campground! Only issue we had in spot #14 was trying to dump our tanks was the sewer line was uphill! State of IA could easily fix this issue!
