I pulled in late at night easy to navigate stayed the next day and did some trails apparently the land formations are 1 of only 2 in the world how about that Iowa.
TravelerStopped overnight in late August. Did not want to drag our gear up/down a hill to the tent campsites in the lower loop. Paid more to stay in the upper RV loop where we listened to a neighbor's generator all night. Pretty buggy. Showers/toilets okay. Note there are at least 2 railroads running nearby in the wee hours of the morning. Also, this is on the flight path for jets leaving (I assume) the Omaha airport. Not a restful night--won't be back.
Traveler
Pretty grounds with woodland coverage on all sides in addition to the lake. We visited in August and realized it was prime family vacation time before school starts up again, so a little crowded and noisy. Spots are pretty close together too. But the grounds are quite lovely and the facilities were super clean. We plan to go back when Autumn arrives, mid week. Bonus easy shore fishing access.

Do not pay Dyrt to use this campground. They are not affiliated.
GuideWe camp all the time at different locations, and I 100% recommend this campground! The hosts are so polite and helpful and they keep the place immaculate. Even the pit toilets were spotless and didn’t smell. The hosts went around several times a day collecting trash and even mopping the pit bathrooms. Camping here also gives you access to the playground and nature trails into some beautiful countryside. The only downside is bring several bottles of bugspray, the mosquitos are terrible!
ScoutOnly spent one night but would have stayed longer if we would have had time. Nice clean bathhouse and restrooms. Lots of hiking trails and even hiking sticks. We really enjoyed this short stay!
Traveler
This campground has beautiful views of the lake. The sites are very close together. Everything was very clean when we were there.

GuideFriendly reminder to bring CASH FIRST COME FIRST SERVE
Pros
Literally no cons.
ScoutThis is my favorite place to tent camp! Nice bathhouse, and even the pit toilet is clean and unoffensive. Tent sites are spacious and most are separated by lots of trees so there's plenty of shade, privacy, and wildlife. Firewood is available and hiking trails are nearby. Unfortunately, I have to find a new favorite spot because I can no longer lug my gear up and down the hill between my car and my tent.
TravelerWe camped in a tent and it was $10 so great and the bathrooms were super clean
Traveler
Mostly level sites with options for tenting or rv. Sites are primitive, electric only or full hookup. Several back to to the lake. The lake is great for fishing, kayaking or swimming.
Guide
It was a bit cold, lots of bad weather, but we found some great places nearby, a dutch windmill near by! Very cool
LegendThe sites for tent camping are okay pretty close together and down a hill, no parking next to your site. There are also pack in sites available and depending on location very nice. There are electic hook ups and cabins to. The bathrooms are a vault toilet.
GuideWe tent camped in the modern loop. Bathroom was clean, lit, and stocked - even had hand sanitizer! RV loops had flush toilets and showers, but we didn’t stay long enough to make the trek worth it. The walk down to the tent sites was annoying at worst, but plenty doable. Campsites were level enough, and there were a few sites with pads. Lots of ticks to look out for. There’s an airfield nearby so plane noise was regular but not frequent. Wifi didn’t quite reach the tent campsites; nor did Verizon service, but T-Mobile was good. All around a fine campground.
Scout
This is a beautiful spot. Was an absolute blast staying at this place. We loved Corey and his buddies!
Guide
We planned on staying there a couple nights but after pulling through the RV and getting ready to hook up we decided to leave. The energy there was so off and it did not feel safe. I don't know what it was but definitely won't be back there.
LegendThe tent campsites are close together in the campground all of them have fire rings with grates. There is a vault toliet just up from the site. There are also a lot of hike in sites that are equiped with a fire ring, no bathrooms though. Tons of hiking trails ranging from hard to easy. Plenty of RV spots and they have cabins
GuideVery nice and cheap. 8 for camping, 12 with electric and 18 full hookups. That’s a great price for the view. I will definitely be back when it’s greener. Verizon is 2 bars of 4g. And Starlink is only possible in select places, as there is a lot of trees. It’s January, so I chose my spot for the internet.
TravelerWas pleasantly surprised with how much space there was at this campground. There were plenty of pit toilets around and they were very clean. The grounds offer plenty of mowed trails to walk about which we enjoyed a lot with our dogs over the weekend.
GuideI was going to stay there but I lost my phone in the porta potty and had to move on. But I will try to make there on my way to my next project.
GuideThe people who run this campground are really nice! There are really none camping and only 10 dollars a night with electricity for a tent site. Showers and large campsites.
Guide
Quiet, there were only a couple other campers in the whole park. Bathroom facilities adequate. Nice lake for the kids to go fishing. Lots of nice hiking trails. Park rangers are good ppl. They had a little nature center which was closed but the nice lady opened it for my kids to go in and let them hold snakes and turtles! They were so excited!
LegendThe tent sites are small and depending on your location you may have to haul your stuff to your site. The hiking was nice only 5 miles though.
Guide$20 in an envelope on arrival-dump station by where you check in. A brave soul came from somewhere in the drizzle to tell us that for a single night (or perhaps in the early season?) we only need pay this $20 and not $5 more per car which another sign indicates. 6 pull-thru sites, not sure how many back-in sites (located further in around a lake). Pull-thru sites were shared electric (only), with pit toilets nearby. It was raining steadily as we arrived, so we weren't dainty about leveling-possibly the gravel was perfect but our power cord dictated our placement. We awoke to tremendously inviting mowed hilly prairie trails.
TravelerStayed here for one night on a cross country trip the Monday before Labor Day. RV sites were fairly full already. We arrived early afternoon and opted to cook dinner at our tent site before setting up camp for the night. Good idea since the nearest day-use picnic shelter was occupied by a rather loud drunk couple who kept shouting at us they were leaving soon—they did leave once but only to buy more liquor! We packed it in and found a more secluded site. A huge storm rolled through the area and we ended up sleeping in our van. Really appreciated the clean shower house (single occupancy/locking) with plenty of hot water! Would like to come back and spend more time.
