What to do:

  • Fishing and swimming: Many campgrounds, like River Bend County Park, are right by the water. One visitor mentioned, "We spent most of our days at the river swimming, floating in tubes, skipping rocks and looking for crawdads." This makes it a great spot for water lovers.

Tips for camping with families:

  • Choose quieter times: If you want a peaceful experience, consider going during the week. A camper at Waterloo County Park mentioned, "During the week is better just because of younger groups who like loud music."
