Camping, family, & fishing.
The campsite was full service and beautiful. There are a few remnants in the area, but that shouldn't distract from the beauty of the area. It gave us excellent access to our family in Iowa City and to fishing on the Iowa River. Loren was very helpful before, during, and after the reservation.

Great private and spacious site!
Loren's land was super private and spacious. The RV site was level, well-maintained, and the electric, water, & sewage were all in great working condition! Loren was really nice and helpful, was super responsive to any questions, and very flexible to our needs - which was really appreciated! We also really appreciated the extra touches like having firewood readily available, a recycling container, and a garbage container. There is an old construction trailer on the site next to the camping pad. This might not appeal to some people, but it didn't bother us and the privacy and space well outweighed that part of the view and totally worked for us. We loved our stay and we'll definitely be back!
