Lazy H Campground

7 ReviewsAdd Review

Water enthusiasts will find Lazy H Campground positioned along a private lake in Akron, Iowa, with fishing, swimming, and boating opportunities available directly from the property. The campground operates as a full-service RV park with concrete pull-through sites featuring complete hookups and level pads that accommodate large rigs.

The lake serves as the central attraction, offering designated fishing areas where no license is required due to its private status. A swimming beach includes anchored floating lily pads that appeal to families, plus rinse-off showers for post-swim cleanup. Boat rentals include pontoons, pedal boats, and kayaks, though bringing personal watercraft appears restricted based on visitor reports.

Sites feature concrete pads with substantial picnic tables and stone fire rings, plus space for additional vehicles. The property includes manicured grass areas between sites, though newly planted trees provide limited shade coverage currently. Jennifer S. notes "sites are close and although they've planted some nice trees, they are small and aren't providing shade yet." Food trucks visit during peak periods, and staff deliver firewood, ice, and fishing worms to sites upon request.

The campground caters to RV travelers seeking amenities over privacy, with rates ranging from $45-65 per night. For additional options in the area, visitors can explore camping spots around Akron.

Campers regularly cited excellent concrete sites, comprehensive amenities including a private lake with unique floating lily pads, and very friendly staff. Several guests observed it's more RV park than campground with closer spacing, though most found the trade-off worthwhile for the extensive facilities and family activities.

1st class RV Park

Out in the middle of basically nowhere is The Lazy H RV park. The park is excellent! It's probably the cleanest park I've ever been to. The concrete pads are level and large. The grass and spacing between spots is wonderful. The staff is VERY friendly. Can't wait to go back.

Love this site

We stayed here 2021. Absolutely enjoyed it! The sites are spaced out, concrete pads and pull thru! We took a nice stroll through the woods also! Can't wait to go back this year!

Lazy H was the best!

Lazy H was the best experience for our family during our summer RV travels. We hiked, picked sweet corn, spent time on the water & enjoyed the beach, relaxed with a wonderful view! The family and I enjoyed the adventure and the locals/staff were very kind and friendly! The entire property is immaculate and pristine! Highly recommend! We will back again soon!

Well maintained campground

Pull through & full hookup paved lots. Nice manicured grass. Huge swim beach with anchored lilypads. You can rent out pontoons, pedal boats, kayaks. Don't plan on bringing your own. Food trucks come in during the day! It is Glamping camping.
Fishing has designated areas, though during our stay not much was biting.

Beautiful Newer RV Park

It is really obvious that these folks put a lot of thought and effort into this park. Big lake for swimming and fishing. Concrete pads and nice new picnic tables. We were greater by an awesome host who gave us some welcome gifts. Keep in mind, this is an RV park, not a campground. Sites are close and although they've planted some nice trees, they are small and aren't providing shade yet. Overall, really nice spot if you are into amenities rather than privacy. Great for kids!

Hidden Gem

This is a fairly new campground that has a lot to offer.

The pull through sites are fully concrete and level. They all have a huge table and stone fire pit. Plenty of room for a second vehicle.

Full hookups are great.

Tons of activities to do here. There’s fishing, boating, biking, and swimming. The beach has giant floating lily pads that the kids loved. There are showers on the beach to wash off feet after you’re done swimming.

You can order firewood, ice, or worms, and they will drop it off at your site. I believe you can even rent or request a golf cart to make getting around easier.

The only regret I have is not staying longer. Truly a wonderful place.

Sprint/T-mobile data was around 56 Mbps down.
