    Brownville Riverside Park

    Needs quite a bit of improvement

    We stayed here so that we would be within walking distance of Brownville. It took a while to figure out how to make a reservation (you call the River Inn Resort). When I made the reservation, I was told there is no electricity, which is fine since we have solar. However, we were not told there are no tables, or fire rings... there pretty much isn't anything other than land. The land that is there is pretty rough as well. There were very large burs of some sort throughout the grassy areas, which made it difficult for our dog to go anywhere during our trip. There were also an unbelievable amount of gnats, but that is probably due to the proximity to the river. The people at the River Inn Resort, where you check in, were friendly and helpful. However, we would not stay here again.

    R U Lost - RV Lots

    Birds are chirping, Quiet, alot of trees

    Call me when you get on Hwy 67. You’ll be 4 miles from us. We arrived in the area, and she greets us with a smile and welcomes us to “R U LOST- RV lots. She shows us our campsite, lets us set-up then we pay for our nights. Then we talk about the rules, talk about the under ground shelter, vegetable garden looks delicious and “you can have as much as you want, just leave me one!” The flower (prayer) garden smells so beautiful, the colors are amazing and it lights up at night. This year is an Outage shut down so the Campsite and others around the plant is very minimal. You need to call if anything is open for your stay. The outage (Nuclear shut down) happens every two years. Right now all campsites except (Indian Cave state park) should be open, but call them to check. Very pleasant place! Shade! Very nice place!!

    Not recommended for cars

    It seems like a bad place to park for the night; sign says area closed 10pm-4am, so camping of any kind seems unallowed.

    Perfect Place to Spend the Night

    I believe I counted 4 total campsites at this place, I was the only one here towards the end of September on a Thursday night.

    It is close to the highway and you can certainly hear it but it didn’t bother me, it’s kinda handy to have a place close to the highway when you’re just stopping for the night.

    Single vault style toilet. There is a dumpster also.

    Quiet and Peaceful

    This park was a great place to head to and unplug for a weekend. We camped in the area without hookups, so we pretty much had that area to ourselves. The area with hookups was somewhat crowded. The bathrooms and shower were clean. Water is easily accessible. The park is small, and we didn't find much to do other than a few hikes. 

    There are signs in the bathrooms warning of the raccoons. These signs are not exaggerating. We had a raccoon at our campsite trying to steal our food while we were there, like the raccoon was less than 10 feet from humans during mid-day.

    Great Place to Stay

    We arrived later in the day finding our spot was easy. The camp ground staff were very nice and friendly. The grounds were beautifully groomed. They amenities such as showers and bathrooms were clean and decorated cute. It was quiet and relaxing. We were able to get a good nights rest before hitting the road again. We would highly recommend.

    Good Place

    Good for families or a solo cowboy. Well maintained, water is a available, and clean bathrooms that smell good. Nice picnic areas. Primitive tent sites and RV sites with electrical hookups. First come, first serve.

    Brownville Riverside Park

    Site flooded

    I work close to this park and watched as the town was making progress in restoring it to a nice campsite. With some covered picnic benches, leveled and mowed campsites, etc….

    Unfortunately, the river has flooded it out as of June 28, 2024 and it will likely be unusable for at least the remainder of this season. There also are a number of large pieces of industrial equipment that are staged in part of the park that will likely not be moved until fall.

    It’s a shame as the remediation from the 2019 flooding was just recently completed.

    A treat of a spot

    Very pleasant spot with a few camp sites as options. Beautiful lake. Bathroom was rough, hole in the ground style with a gate for a door. But over all the site was worth it

    Great Spot To Stop

    Traveling through on a cross country trip. Needed a spot to camp from my motorcycle. I was given a giant secluded spot by the pond, separate from the RV area. Has a lovely looking pool that was open, clean showers, and fire wood for sale. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. The only reason it isn't getting 5 stars is the proximity to the freeway, you can hear it very clearly (jake brakes and all) continuously.

    Hackberry Hollow Campground — Indian Cave State Park

    Cool cave right off the river

    The campground is pretty well-kept. Multiple playgrounds and shower houses throughout. Firewood for sale. A giant raccoon tried to get into my cooler 10 minutes after we turned out our lights for the night. Lookout for ticks. The cave was a little smaller than anticipated and near the tables on bank, the river unfortunately had a couple large patches of garbage. Still a fun place to camp out and hike around a bit.

    Lovely find!

    Very well cared for site. It's been well established for many years. I was visiting friends in St. Joe and was surprised to learn her parents used to came there many decades ago. It was a KOA and the new owners have kept it up to those standards. The owners/managers are friendly and acknowledged me by name when I walked up to register. A bit of freeway noise but not too bothersome, Great stay!

    Good free camping

    Good place for free camping just not a lot of things to do other than explore the woods or fish in the river which doesn’t have great access. They say there’s bike trails but it’s more just access roads.

    It’s a big area with several access points. Here are the coordinates for the camping area along the river 39.95182° N, 94.99083° W.

    Fine for a 1 night stay!

    Victorian Acres was fine for one night. Not a lot to say about it. It backs up to the highway, but after a long day of driving we slept through the noise. There weren’t any fire pits because “it was too cold”. That’s exactly why we wanted one. The bathhouse was ok. The women’s bathroom was fine, even large for the size of the campground. Unfortunately, both toilets in the men’s bathroom were backed up and broken, huge bummer! 💩 There was a small dog park , we didn’t get to use it since we got in late and left early so I cannot comment on the condition. We were on site 55, easy to access and leave from. It was sort of level, but we still felt like we were tipping sideways a bit in the van. There were 30amp electric and water hookups.

    Early fall camp

    Came out to camp one night with my 5 year old. We stated on a friday night in October and the campground was not too busy at all.. maybe only 5 other groups there. Showers and bathroom were all fine, campsite was clean and well maintained. Loved that the tent camping sites were actually surrounded by trees, I see way to many tent campsites that are basically just in the middle of a grass field. There are walking paths and a couple of playgrounds around the lake close enough to walk to but far enough away they wont ever be a bother. Also if you like disc golf than this is the place to go, there is a brand new 18 hole course right next to the camp!

    Overnight stay

    Reasonable price for all the amenities. Super clean and staff was super nice. They were renovating around the office and showers, but nothing inconvenient.

    Solid free campsite

    Google Maps will take you on some gnarly gravel roads in a big loop if you take directions straight from Dyrt. Save yourself the time and search “Honey Creek Conservation Area”.

    The spot itself is decent. It’s free. The campsites were super clean, but the bathrooms leave much to be desired. There are only really three or four designated campsites es, but there was only one other group here on a Wednesday. You can hear some traffic noise from the freeway, but nothing outrageous.

    Verizon signal fluctuates, but averages two bars.

    Simple clearing

    A nice little clearing easy to set up a tent in. There seems to be some private RV camping nearby which I was unsure about but they never came and bothered me. One of those trees in a mulberry, don’t put your tent under it you will have mulberries dropping on you in July. There is a nice walk towards the water, just wear pants and closed shoes to avoid the stinging nettle. There also is no fire pit or amenities at this site

    This spot would be great for bird watchers

    A nice stop but bring a fan

    I’m driving up to Wyoming from Tennessee and camping along the way and this was my first stop. I didn’t know what exactly to expect but upon pulling in there was one other car there and I asked them if they could help me find the designated camping spot, because I could not find anything Other than small patches of grass, which I wasn’t sure if they were camping sites or not, and he told me that I needed to get a permit to park and camp which shocked me, but I drove to where I could get enough service to call them and upon calling them, I discovered that I did not need a permit. You only need a permit if you’re in a group over 11 people. That was a little bit annoying, but it was an honest mistake on that guys part. He wasn’t being mean, just trying to inform me. Upon setting up my campsite, the heat and humidity really settled in and it was actually quite miserable but that was my bad for not bringing a fan. Overall the place is well-maintained and quiet. But you definitely are going to want to bring a battery powered or rechargeable fan. Incredibly hot and humid.

    Great place to stay

    We called ahead so they were expecting us and the staff knew who we were when we pulled up. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautifully kept grounds with lots of lush grass. There is a lake/ river at the edge of the property with fish, plenty of frogs and I even saw a beaver or otter swimming across it. You can fish but it is catch and release. Surprisingly not buggy at all for being right by the water. The playground is great and they have lawn games and a large dog park. Nice clean bathrooms with hot showers and great water pressure. They even have a pool which I didn’t end up taking advantage of but would have had we stayed longer. They had the cutest little benches to sit on and look out over the water and at the stars. We also had so much fun chasing fireflies.

    We camped in a tent with our 2 dogs and young toddler and had a great stay.

    It is close to the highway and we could hear traffic but it was easy to tune out. The cicadas and bullfrogs are loud at night but we really enjoyed that.

    Fun park at the southern tip of NE

    Enjoyed our night here. One of the only ones at the park as it was freezing out. We pulled up as you literally drive through a bunch of open farmlands to get here and it was almost a little spooky because we did not see anyone. They have miles of trails to see an old town, old cemetery, the great Missouri and of course Indian Cave. I recommend a stop!

    Had the campground too ourselves!

    It appears not many people camp in Iowa in February. We had the campground to ourselves. We missed the crazy cold and snow by a day but it was 20 degree with the wind when I hiked the prairie. Lovely little state park, clean and the trail system was pretty neat. Wasn't perfectly flat and had some overlooks. Very much enjoyed!
