Briggs Woods Park

I took my mother and my youngest on a Mother’s Day weekend camping adventure. We chose Briggs Woods because of its location and reviews from other campers. It is a larger campground than you think! Spots for primitive tent camping, electrical hook up and full hook ups. The campground offers free WiFi and it reached clear to the back end over by the four little cabins. The pit toilets by the four little cabins were clean and stocked. My daughter was able to walk her little dog around the campground with no issues of other dogs running loose. Quiet hours begin at 10:30 pm and everyone followed the rule. I also like how close to the river this campground is. We stayed in electrical spots in the #60s. I like how you can scan the QR code and pay right there from your phone. Very convenient! The camp hosts were friendly and would often cruise by in their golf cart checking on campers.

I'm just stopped here for the night on a long cross country trip. The electricity is on, and the water is off. The campground is completely deserted except for me. The RV campsites are very close together, and I would imagine this would simply be a madhouse in the summertime.

Nice camp, decent sites, GREAT buddy sites! Cell service is null, and no wifi. We do love the hiking over here!

This is a county park that is was well wooded and quite busy on a June Friday night.  Lots of local folks.  Stayed at the front-end of the part where apparently the sites are a little closer together than the rear sites.  Was passing through on a cross country trip so only stayed on one night.  Site with full hook-ups was only $30.  Partial or no hook-up even less.  You can reserve a spot by going online, though they do keep some as FCFS.

A few negatives about the park is that, with the local flavor, there were a lot of extended families there, and they all seemed to bring there dogs.  Lots of barking going on.  Our space was out of level but manageable, and the bath house and outhouse were on the rustic side.  Decent enough place when passing through, and a great price!

We stayed Sun-Wed in May. Closest other campers were about a football field away. Very quiet park, we stayed in the back. We had water/power but no sewer hookup. Only downside to this park is there are no garbage cans. Weird?

Beautiful spot, very quiet!! Next camper 100 yards away.

Stayed in early November. Nice park with standard tent and RV sites. Boone River , Briggs Woods Lake good for paddling with rentals available, fishing, beach, shower house, cabins.

Brigs Woods is close to Webster City, IA.  There are several campsites, cabins, golf course, access to canoeing or kayaking on the Boone River, along with hiking trails, swimming and fishing.  This is one of the many county parks spread across Iowa.  They have reasonable rates and many do not take reservations.  One area is good for a group of campers as the sites are in a circle.  A walking bridge links the back loop to the other loop that has the bathhouse making it a shorter walk.

There are sites with full hookups, H2O and Elec, or Elec only.  Here is the website: https://www.mycountyparks.com/County/Hamilton/Park/Briggs-Woods-Park-and-Golf-Course.aspx

The wonderful thing about the park is the magnificent trees.

Nice campground. lower camp ground has circle type pads that hold 4 campers good for groups (friends, Family) upper camp ground has more single sites. as of 2020 more sites under construction both upper and lower area. they have some cabins and a couple walk in tent sites (short walk) WIFI in lower part of camp ground.

We usually camp here Memorial Day weekend. It's a bit cold to go tubing then, but there is a nice beach area when the river is to high, low, etc.
