Camping near Okoboji

·

Try a camping getaway to the small town of Okoboji in northern Iowa. Nestled between the eastern and western arms of Okoboji Lake, it’s a freshwater oasis full of activity. Campers can kayak the interconnected lake system (there are five in total), bike on the Iowa Great Lakes Trail, and build sandcastles on the beach at Emerson Bay State Recreation Area. The recreation area’s campground features electrical hookups, dump stations, bathrooms, showers, and boat ramps for RV and tent camping. Once December rolls around, Okoboji turns into a winter wonderland. The annual 40 inches of snow makes the perfect environment for ripping around on groomed snowmobile trails and cross-country skiing routes. For more year-round outdoor activities and accommodations, head to Big Spirit Lake just 20 minutes north. Get cozy in a private cabin rental with central heat, or cruise the RV to Marble Beach State Recreation Area for pull-through campsites that have 50-amp hookups and access to restrooms and hot showers.

29mi from Okoboji · 1 site · Worthington, MN
Olson Park and Campground stands out as a unique destination due to its rich history and generous land donation by industrialist E.O. Olson and his wife, Bella H. Olson. In April 1945, they contributed 55.1 acres to the city, establishing a beautiful park that was officially named Olson Park in January 1950. This commitment to community and nature has made the park a cherished local landmark. In October 1956, an additional 10 acres were acquired along County Road #59 for $3,000 from Genevieve E. Peters, intended for future park development or potential well site purposes. The park continued to expand with two more purchases totaling 2.498 acres from Agnes and Alvina Haack in 1956 and 1966, with a portion designated for Well Site #20. These acquisitions have seamlessly integrated into Olson Park, enhancing its natural beauty and recreational offerings. Visitors to Olson Park can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, including hiking, picnicking, and exploring nearby natural features. The park's serene environment provides a perfect escape for families and nature enthusiasts alike, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and adventure.

Weekend Trip to Camping on private lake
We really enjoyed our stay — the campsite was peaceful and right by the water with everything we needed (kayaks/canoe/boat available). The host was very caring, friendly, and welcoming, even giving us fresh farm eggs, which was such a nice touch. The spot felt private and relaxing. The amenities are excellent: power at all sites, warm showers, flushing toilets, and well-maintained grounds. Unfortunately, we had to cut our trip short because of the high winds, but we’d love to come back when the weather is calmer!

2 nights at Camping on private lake
A Little Slice of Heaven – Peaceful Lakefront Camping with an Amazing Host This place went above and beyond my expectations! I stayed for 2 nights and had an unforgettable experience. Jim is by far one of the most gracious, friendly, and welcoming hosts I’ve ever met. From the moment I arrived, he greeted me, showed me around, and made sure I had everything I needed. He even brought firewood right to my site and surprised me with a dozen fresh farm eggs—talk about hospitality! His land is a true hidden gem. The quiet lake is perfect for paddling or fishing, with a trolling motor boat, canoe, and kayaks available for guests. My campsite had electric hookups, a firepit, patio table with chairs, plus a mini fridge—a thoughtful touch that made camping feel effortless. There’s also access to a shower, flushing toilet, and outdoor bathroom, so comfort is never sacrificed. I loved that my two dogs could run around freely and enjoy the space—it was as much their vacation as mine! Nights were the highlight: no city light pollution, just millions of stars sparkling in the sky. Absolutely breathtaking. This place is serene, clean, and peaceful, with everything you need for a relaxing escape. I’ll definitely be back. Huge thanks to Jim for sharing his beautiful property and making my trip so memorable. This one’s a 5⭐️+ stay all the way!

Highly recommend! Such a great little spot. We stayed at Site 4, which was spacious and set a bit farther from the others—perfect for us with two dogs and a toddler. The site came with a fire pit, table, chairs, and even a hammock. We loved the lake view and really appreciated the access to kayaks, a canoe, and a boat with a trolling motor. You can hear some traffic but that's to be expected due to it's location but it didn’t take away from how enjoyable the stay was. We didn’t get to use everything this place offers, but that just means we’ll be back again. The host was very friendly and welcoming, showed us where everything was, and made sure we were comfortable settling in. We came in from Sioux Falls, and it was absolutely worth the drive and the money.

Weekend Trip to Camping on private lake
This was an awesome campsite. The view was great, right by the lake. It was a cold weekend so we didn’t get to enjoy the water, but it seems clean and I want to go back there in the summer. We had a lot of space. Jim was very friendly and helpful, since we were the only ones there, we were able to switch site, and Jim provided a little space heater for us and it helped a lot overnight since it got pretty cold. We were there on the opening day for bird hunting, and we woke up on Sat and Sun morning with gun shots, not super fun since we don’t like hunting and my dog gets scared of the noise, but besides that, it is an awesome place and I plan on going back. 10/10 recommend it.

My friends and I absolutely loved staying at this campsite! Jim is an awesome guy! He welcomed us in, gave us a quick tour of where everything was, and even gifted us some of the eggs from his chickens :) He’s super thoughtful and has pretty much everything you’d need. He has a table, a grill-top for the campfire, chairs/seats, and even a hammock set up in the trees! I also love that he had kayaks/canoes available to use for free as well. My friends and I definitely enjoyed our time on the lake paddling in those! Of course, his dog Rocky, just the sweetest girl! We definitely recommend this place and we ourselves would come here again! Thanks Jim!

Jim has made his campsites a beautiful comfortable place to camp. The man made lake was perfect for my dog. He was able to swim without large boulders. We typically can not get him to swim for as long as he did. Listed as no picnic table, but to our surprise was a patio set at site #4. The guys loved going out on the boats. We didn't use the indoor shower but took advantage of the outdoor shower rinse. Toilets were clean and as a woman I really appreciated a flushing toilet. Electricity was a huge plus for my dad's cpap. The Sunrise and Sunsets were absolutely gorgeous! We honestly did not expect all the extras that came with renting out this site. We had a wonderful relaxing time. This would also be a great place if you have younger children because of how far out kids can go and swim without a lot of worry

Olson Park and Campground stands out as a unique destination due to its rich history and generous land donation by industrialist E.O. Olson and his wife, Bella H. Olson. In April 1945, they contributed 55.1 acres to the city, establishing a beautiful park that was officially named Olson Park in January 1950. This commitment to community and nature has made the park a cherished local landmark. In October 1956, an additional 10 acres were acquired along County Road #59 for $3,000 from Genevieve E. Peters, intended for future park development or potential well site purposes. The park continued to expand with two more purchases totaling 2.498 acres from Agnes and Alvina Haack in 1956 and 1966, with a portion designated for Well Site #20. These acquisitions have seamlessly integrated into Olson Park, enhancing its natural beauty and recreational offerings. Visitors to Olson Park can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, including hiking, picnicking, and exploring nearby natural features. The park's serene environment provides a perfect escape for families and nature enthusiasts alike, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and adventure. With its historical significance and commitment to preserving green space, Olson Park and Campground remains a beloved destination
