LOVED staying at Shady Brook! I was road tripping from Colorado to Illinois, and this was the perfect stop off 80 to spend the night. Brenda was so helpful in explaining the site layout, and was so wonderfully friendly. Everything is well established and well maintained. I stayed at Site 3, in my tent with my dog, and watched the lightning bugs glow around the woods surrounding me. There’s even a POOL I didn’t get a chance to swim in! Definitely bringing my swim suit next time :)




Tent Camping at Shady Brook was a welcome respite on my trek across the country. I was able to car camp at the tent site and enjoy a walk around the grounds. The bathroom/shower was super clean. Tent sites 1-10 are more centrally located to the bathrooms/pool/playground/pavillion, so if you're looking for more privacy, reserve sites 11 or up.
Everything was very well kept, and I was delighted to have a tent space near the creek. My short stay here was a real escape from more hectic parts of my trip... Great place!

If you want to know where to find Heaven on Earth, it's here in Iowa at Shady Brook! The hosts Brenda and Dave are simply shy of AMAZING! Jerry the groundskeeper is by far the coolest! This is by far my new camping home away from home. I will be back as often as possible!

We appreciate all our campers and are so thankful to meet people like you!
Heaven on earth! Look no further!

Thank you Cindy! Can't wait for your return! Thank you for your stay. Dave and Brenda
Better than a hotel if you're traveling I80. Super friendly and accommodating hosts. Even went out of their way to find a board for the kickstand on my motorcycle.


Thank you Jeff! We appreciate your business and wish you safe travels. Dave and Brenda
