Conveniently located right off of the highway and close to restaurants and grocery stores. Office staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Campsites are level, laundry room and restrooms were clean and in working order. I would definitely recommend and would happily stay here again. Sites are pull through and With plenty of room for your tow vehicle.
Sandy Sorensen
Great park for overnight stay as we travel through in our 37’ RV. Spaces very level, mature trees for each site, great (affordable and clean) laundry facilities. The managers were very accommodating and helpful. Only reason I gave 4 stars for location is it is next to a truck stop but it didnt bother us in the least. Thank you! Would stop by again. 🐶 Pet friendly too!

New owners (mid August 2025) very friendly & helpful to our family passing through. Small campground, a *little* hwy noise (very conveniently located near the hwy & short, easy walk to a convenience store, so to be expected), manicured gravel sites, clean restrooms & showers. We weren’t staying, but prices listed on their website were fair. Thanks so much!

Adorable RV Park in Onawa, IA. Large, flat, and gravel drives each with a picnic table and full amenities. Bathrooms on site, and they'll pick up your morning trash bag!! The trees here are huge and provide nice shade. Tall enough to not scratch the coach, too. We'll come back to this one each season we go North to WY or SD.

I'm very impressed with this park. We are a big rig with a tow and fit into our pull through with room to spare. The lot was level and decent width. The shade trees are so nice, yet not in the way to maneuver our rig in and out. We were escorted to our site. Everyone was courteous and friendly. Thanks so much for a great stay!
