Four miles northeast of Pella, Horns Ferry Hideaway operates as a private campground in central Iowa's agricultural landscape. The property sits in Knoxville, providing campers with access to the rural setting characteristic of this part of Marion County.
With limited operational details available, campers should contact the property directly to confirm current amenities, site availability, and reservation requirements. The campground's private management structure typically means more flexibility in accommodations compared to state-run facilities. Nearby Howell Station offers additional camping options less than half a mile north. Those seeking more choices can explore campgrounds around Pella for comparison shopping before booking their stay.
Description
Horn’s Ferry Hideaway offers premier Iowa Cabins at Lake Red Rock and the Red Rock Dam. Great for weekend getaways or longer stay rentals.
Our luxury vacation rental cabins are set in seclusion for the perfect getaway. Red Rock Lake is Iowa’s largest where you can boat, fish, or swim until your heart’s content. Our property is nestled between a 38-acre wooded eagle refuge and a federally managed prairie and savanna refuge. Nature abounds all around our cabins with plenty of opportunities to go for a hike or sit back and enjoy it from the screened-in porch. While here, take advantage of the 17-mile paved Volksweg trail that is just steps away from the cabins and is perfect for a scenic walk or bike ride along the lake or river.
