Visited in mid September on a warm Tuesday afternoon. Just a few folks around but pretty much had the place to myself. It's a good place to go if you want to kick it. It is a Sandy shore and the park is right on the river. Although swimming is allowed, I wouldn't. The current of the river is swift even by the shore. Not a wade beach, shore drops off. There is a playground nearby and it is a state park patrolled by Iowa DNR agents. I have to say it's ok. It's not like Indiana dunes.

Nice stretch of Mississippi river. The host and staff are super kind. The folks camping are great also. Beach access. Too crowded and no space between neighbors. Bathrooms are not good. Only one toilet in the men's bathroom. Trailer trash feel to it.

Beautiful view, great park, campground clean and easy to find a good spot. Park Rangers drive through every 60 to 90 minutes so we felt safe..

Trailer Park camping with a nice view. Here’s what it looks like in the winter time. Kinda looks like a paved drive-in movie theater with a great view of the Mississippi river.. before warned the Campground is set between the railroad tracks and the river and the distance between the two of them is about 300 yards….. no winter camping here but the first 11 sites down at Shady Creek 7 miles south is open for winter camping that is of the time of this writing on December 29, 2024 ..

Fantastic spot right on the Mississippi river. There is electricity and water to fill your fresh water tank. As of right now there is no dump station. But the sand beach is awesome!!!
