    Rustic Barn Campground RV Park

    Very clean and well-maintained

    General: 58 sites with various amenities. Some are long pull-throughs, some are back-in, some have 30 amp with or without a patio, and some have 50-amp electric with or without a patio. Tents are NOT allowed. We were greeted immediately upon arrival and asked to sign a waiver and given a welcome packet. The rules are extensive, but most are common sense/courtesy and not at all unreasonable. 

    Site Quality: All had gravel driveways and looked level. Decent separation between sites although they are close together, as would be expected in an RV park. Our site had a patio and decent-sized picnic table but it was chilly when we were there so we ate inside. 

    Bathhouse: Very clean as were the showers. 

    Activities/Amenities: There are many activities offered, including a dog park, basketball, horseshoes, games (cornhole, large checkerboard, and others), a barn with a television, a book library, puzzles, and a pool table. Coffee is available after 9 am. There is also a small chapel available 24/7 and a laundry room. WiFi is also available. There is a camp store with ice, ice cream, some camping supplies, clothing, crafts, and more. We were told several restaurants will deliver to the campground. 

    We don’t typically prefer to stay in RV-style campgrounds, but it was conveniently located with easy access off Route 151 just over the Wisconsin border from Iowa, we were warmly welcomed, and enjoyed our short stay passing through. Pride of ownership was evident throughout.

    Mud Lake County Park

    Beautiful park on Miss River. Great value

    Mud Lake is a wonderful county park near Dubuque. Beautiful views of the Mississippi River. We stayed one night on our way to Minnesota. The sites are mostly sunny. The park streets are gravel with gravel sites. The park is quiet except for the occasional train from the nearby tracks. Great value for $21. Electric and water hookups. Marina and boathouse next door.

    Stayed in campsite #35 which has no shade. It was a gravel site which shares a pull-through with site 36. There was more than enough parking for my TT and truck and grass on either side. The site included: picnic table and fire ring. Utilities were located in the rear. 20A/50A electric and water. Site was level. Neighbors were nearby.

    AT&T had 2 bars of LTE and Verizon 2 bars of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 47 Mbps down, 1.3 Mbps up. Verizon data VERY SLOW. No WiFi.

    Would stay here again. We camped at Mud Lake Park in a Travel Trailer.

    Lundeens Landing

    Rock Riverside Oasis

    Hiding underneath of the I80 bridge carrying you over the Rock River, you’ll spot Lundeens Landing on the EAST side of this interstate (you’ll want to take note of this as The Dyrt has this campground in the wrong location on the WEST side of I80 in the small town of Barstow). Getting here to Lundeens is not the easiest journey, as you’ll need to head northwards on I80 crossing the bridge (if you are coming in by way of Colona), where you’ll want to get off on I88 heading west, where shortly after the exit, you’ll have to make a U turn and take the frontage road (193rd Street) that straddles I80 heading south until you can catch Route 4 / Barstow Road heading east, where you’ll pass underneath that bridge holding up I80 and continue east about 2 miles before spotting Lundeens on the left with a gorgeous view of the Rock River.

    Now that you’ve made your way here, let me tell you about this place. First, you’ll be greeted by the main office that sits up about a story on stilts, which BTW isn’t for bird watching, but rather to safeguard the building from any river flooding that may happen (and trust me, in this parts, it happens). After checking in with the owner, Joe, or one of his few employees, you’ll make your way down a single narrow loop that will take you to your designated plot of land. It goes without saying that the best sites are those located right in front of the Rock River. And if you’re a tent camper, you’ll find bliss at the far end of the loop as far away from the main office as possible, where you’ll find water & electric-equipped sites tucked into some really thick brush complete with your own mini-forest.

    Apart from the very warm Midwestern hospitality that you’ll receive here from Joe, his father and the rest of the Lundeens crew, this medium-sized camping outpost offers up a no-frills, basic level of camping comfort with direct access to one of the most exciting rivers I’ve had the great pleasure of kayaking and fishing on. Amenities include: pull-thru and back-in sites for RVs, general market, typical RV hook-ups (water, 15 / 20 / 30 / 50 amp electric), concrete patios, picnic tables, fire rings, honey wagon, dump station, pet-friendly, playground, nature trails, weekly events, boat ramp & 7 river docks, shuttle service, canoe & kayak rentals, pretty clean restroom & showers, innertubes, adventure island (located just across the river) and a small beachhead.

    Insider’s tips? Here’s a handful: (1) While it’s likely the direct access to Rock River that attracted you to this location, if you have bikes, you should bring them as the frontage road that brought you here is one very EXCELLENT road to bike on to see and explore the gorgeous Midwestern country landscape that exists here; (2) In speaking with Joe’s father at length about the campground, there’s plans to put in another campground area just across the street and due northwest of this property, which will offer additional RV spots, a designated laundry facility with coin-operated washers & dryers as well as many more amenities; and (3) Depending upon your interest and a craving, if you want to gnosh on some local grub, the best nearby spots include: Choppers Bar & Grill, Tap 22 Bar & Grill and 11th Hour Bar & Grill (yes, everything's a Bar & Grill out in these parts).

    Happy Camping!

Guide to Delmar

Camping near Delmar, Iowa features abundant natural waterways, with the Mississippi River marking its eastern border and providing diverse recreation opportunities. The region's soil composition ranges from sandy along riverbanks to rich loam inland, creating varied camping terrain that drains differently after rainfall. Campsites typically fill quickly from June through August due to the region's popularity with both local and out-of-state campers.

What to do

Water recreation: Explore the Mississippi backwaters. At Rock Creek County Marina and Campground, campers can rent canoes and kayaks to navigate the Mississippi's backwater channels. "Nice educational center with canoe and kayak rentals, with lots of Mississippi backwater to explore. Showers are open until October 14 this year," notes Jeff and Linda L.

Fishing: Cast from shore or boat. Fishermans Corner provides excellent access for anglers along the Mississippi. "There is access along river for fishing. Railroad runs nearby can be loud," explains James M. The site offers concrete pads with electric hookups and direct water access.

Hiking: Utilize connected trail systems. Many campgrounds connect to the Great River Trail system. "From this campground you can go north, as far as Savanna. Going south will take you through Hampton, East Moline, Moline, Rock Island, and you can cross over to Davenport," writes Sebastian G. about Fishermans Corner.

What campers like

Level sites: Concrete pads at Corps of Engineers parks. Blanding Landing offers properly graded sites that RVers appreciate. "Overall nice campground. Hosts are friendly and I saw rangers driving through multiple times. Each site includes picnic table and fire pit. Most have electric," reports Mary S.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained shower houses. Campers consistently mention the cleanliness of facilities at Geneseo Campground. "Friendly staff, very clean and peaceful. Nice shower rooms and amenities and very reasonably priced," writes Tom N. The campground maintains both flush toilets and portable facilities.

Nature viewing: Wildlife observation opportunities. Spruce Creek Park offers direct river access and views. "Great spot on the Mississippi River. Has I known the park beforehand, I would have picked a spot on the river. Still a two hundred foot walk and I am there," says David D.

What you should know

Train noise: Railroad tracks border many riverside campgrounds. Several RV parks near Delmar have railroad tracks nearby with frequent train traffic. "Very quiet at night, even though the place was packed. Close to groceries, fuel," notes Bob M. about Shady Creek, though he doesn't mention the nearby train tracks that other campers report.

Seasonal flooding: Check conditions before booking. Low-lying campgrounds can experience flooding during spring and after heavy rainfall. "Watch river levels for flooding, bugs can be bad since location is bottomland riverine forest," warns James M. about Rock Creek Marina.

Reservation requirements: Many parks require advance booking. Rustic Barn Campground RV Park has clearly defined reservation policies. "We were greeted immediately upon arrival and asked to sign a waiver and given a welcome packet. The rules are extensive, but most are common sense/courtesy and not at all unreasonable," explains Lee D.

Tips for camping with families

Playgrounds: On-site recreation for children. "This campground has an assortment of primitive and electrical sites. They also have cabins and canoe/kayak rental, a visitor shop with food/drink and a mini museum of the local wildlife. Great place for the family," notes Ryan about Rock Creek Marina.

Educational centers: Nature programs nearby. Off Shore RV Park provides access to educational programming. "Resort has many options: even camp sites, 4 villas, resort inn rooms. Sites have hard surfaces, fire rings, water, electric. Boat ramp nearby, resort has restaurant, playground, water park," describes James M.

Bug preparation: Pack appropriate repellent. The riverfront location means insect activity can be intense. "Bugs were not too bad when we were there (October) which was surprising as it was so close to the river and still warm," shares Lee D. about Fishermans Corner, suggesting late-season camping may reduce bug encounters.

Tips from RVers

Hookup availability: Water sources require planning. At Shady Creek, water stations are shared between multiple sites. "Water is dispersed between sites (not for fixed hookup) and good electric. There's a train but it was infrequent so it did not disrupt our sleep," reports Sarah C.

Site selection: Request riverside spots when available. "Some sites are right on the river w/ views - worth it to try to get those. Our spot was last min and just a short walk from river - still beautiful," advises Sarah C. Most campgrounds offer both standard and premium waterfront sites.

Leveling requirements: Bring blocks for uneven sites. "We had such a lovely stay here! We will be back! It's a beautiful setting, very quaint with the Rustic chapel and the view for miles. The sites are all clean and most all are level. Unfortunately our site 26 seemed to be the most unlevel, which was our only negative. We had to use all our blocks to get us as level as possible," shares Stephanie S. about Rustic Barn Campground.
