RV campgrounds along Saylorville Lake. Clean and well-maintained. Campground hosts on site. Lots of trails for walking and biking. Close access to a boat dock. Big lake so can paddle a kayak, use a jet ski or boat. Busy this time of year, so gotta book in advance. Check in/out is easy. If you have already booked online, go on in. Times to do so like a hotel: in after 2 pm. Out by noon.

Great place! REMEMBER these sites are electric only. There are no water or sewer hook upstairs. They have dump stations and water hydrants are place around the property. Just be prepared.

My only ding is I came here to ride the Neal Smith Trail and it is closed for resurfacing. I wish it could have been posted on the recreation.gov reservation website.

Love the campgrounds. The hosts keep the restrooms and shower facilities spotless. That's not an exaggeration. Immaculate. Nice level spots. Plenty of playgrounds for the kids. Walking distances to the lake. Right on the bike path. New water and dump stations with nice wide aisles.

In a very nice area, easy to get to, trying to find your spot is a bit of a maze, but very clean. Most everything is very close within 15 mins at max. The sites were nice a bit steep so you’ll need your extra blocks. Bathrooms and showers were close and clean. The trails around were paved and easy to navigate and well maintained. Great for riding bikes or scooters!
