    Tower Rock

    Modern cabins and a beautiful park

    The two cabins are fairly new and have all of the amenities. My mother-in-law stayed here while visiting recently and we enjoyed spending time at her cabin.

    While camping is no longer allowed in Tower Rock park, you can still enjoy a walk down to the river or bicycling on the paved bicycle trail. Tube rentals are available nearby for the Iowa River, and a local outfitter will rent a boat for the day to fish Pine Lake or the small lake northwest of Steamboat Rock.

    Pine lake is not that far away either and offers many fun activities.

    Waterloo - Lost Island Waterpark KOA

    Great Campground for Kids, Lots of Amenities

    Decent sites with full hook ups. Little shade with small trees next to about each site. Gas, propane, laundry room, beach area, small boat rentals, good sized convenience store with ice, beer, snacks, milkshake machine, etc. Enough to do for a day or two without going to the water park. Overall felt pretty exposed but the amenities made up for it.

    Waterloo - Lost Island Waterpark KOA

    Great place to stay

    We stayed at started at the Lost Island water park KOA for just one night while passing through the area. We were in our class C while slowly making our way across the country. We had no problems getting a spot here. Sites are gravel for the RV, reasonably level, and very well maintained. Most sites are pull through. Hookups are in very good condition. Each site had a grassy area with a picnic table. Staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a playground, beach and fenced dog area. Cost was very good for the amenities provided.

    The campground had a store, gas station and propane available.

    We had 4 bar LTE with Verizon. Our hotspot was usable and performed very well. We enjoyed our brief stay at this campground. We will stay again when traveling this way.

    Pine Lake State Park Campground

    Pine Lake is an awesome state park

    This campground is near home so I know it well.

    The campground itself is nice, with some decent sized campsites, many having a great view of upper Pine Lake. There are flush toilets and showers. Campsites have electric hookups. It can get busy during peak season!

    Some of the campsites are near the lake, some are near the road. Noise is usually not a problem as the road has a 35mph speed limit by the campground.

    Things to do: (so much to list!)

    • Paddle on upper or lower Pine Lake
    • Fishing, shore or boat (lake, stream, or river)
    • Bicycle trails
    • Hiking trails (all around lower Pine Lake)
    • Beach swimming (lower only)
    • Float or paddle nearby Iowa River (tube and boat rentals nearby)
    • Eat, replenish supplies in nearby Eldora
