Customer Reviews
Very much enjoying my stay ~ large grass lawn spaces for those of us who tent it vs tow a land yacht ~ thank you. Friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities. Bring bug spray.
Nice close to water Nice views a spot to put your kayak in
The Army Corp of Engineers parks are always well run and maintained. However this site is exceptional. The view of the Mississippi River is amazing and if you get the right site you can here the waves splashing against the Rocky shore.
I probably should write a bad review so no more people find out about this gem. Spacious grassy sites, pretty shady, most with water views. Right on a bike trail. Level concrete slabs with gravel patios with fire ring. 50 amp power with scattered hydrants throughout the cg. At least 3 dump stations on the way out. Tons of birds and waterfowl. Listen to the Sandhill Cranes across the slough. Nice breeze off the river.
Great place to enjoy the Mississippi river. You can't get much close to the river then this.
