Summit Cabin 1

West Lake Park houses Summit Cabin 1, a modern rental cabin managed by the Scott County Conservation Board that provides full amenities for up to four guests. The cabin features two bedrooms, a complete kitchen, living room with sleeper sofa, fireplace, and ADA-accessible bathroom. A covered porch overlooks the lake, while outdoor amenities include a fire pit and picnic table.

The facility operates with a no-pets policy and requires reservations. Electric hookups support RV camping, though the cabin itself serves as the primary accommodation. Water access draws many visitors, with the park offering kayak and paddleboard rentals along with a seasonal swimming beach. Concessions operate during peak season.

"Facility is clean and park rangers are helpful and friendly," notes Paige D.. The location tends to be less congested than other local camping areas, with playgrounds and paddle boat rentals providing family activities. Rates range from $125-$150 per night. Campers seeking additional accommodations can explore places to camp around Davenport or nearby Summit Cabin 2.

The cabin's modern amenities and lake access make it suitable for families wanting indoor comfort with outdoor recreation opportunities.
