Hickory Haven Campground

50 Tent Sites

Situated on 27 shaded acres just north of Keokuk, Iowa, Hickory Haven Campground has built a devoted following since 1993 by offering a well-rounded, family-friendly camping experience at the confluence of the Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers—one of the most historically significant waterways in the American Midwest. Half a mile off Highway 61/218 with quick access to both the river corridor and Keokuk's attractions, the campground combines full hookup sites, a well-equipped pavilion, and a range of activities that make it easy to fill a long weekend without leaving the property. The river culture of southeastern Iowa surrounds the entire experience. Full hookup sites are shaded and well-maintained, with water, electric, and sewer hookups, picnic tables, and clean restrooms complemented by laundry facilities and a general store. A pavilion equipped with a fridge, griddle, BBQ grill, and gas fire pit makes group gatherings comfortable, and outdoor movie nights with popcorn add a social dimension to summer evenings. Walking trails wind through the property's wooded terrain, and a serene fishing pond provides immediate angling access. Pickleball courts, cornhole, a playground, a dog park, EV charging, and community fire pits round out an unusually complete amenity package for a property of this size. The natural setting of southeastern Iowa has a quiet, river-valley beauty that rewards attention. The campground's heavy shade canopy—hickories, oaks, and cottonwoods—creates a cool, dappled atmosphere even on hot summer days, and the sounds of the property carry the character of a Midwestern camping tradition that goes back generations. Stargazing from the campground on clear nights is excellent, and the general pace of the grounds is unhurried in a way that contrasts pleasantly with busier resort destinations. Keokuk sits at the confluence of the Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers and offers genuine historical depth. Lock and Dam No. 19, the largest lock on the entire Mississippi River system, is a local landmark worth visiting for the engineering spectacle alone. The Mississippi River National Wildlife Refuge flanks the corridor with outstanding birding—bald eagles winter along the Keokuk stretch in impressive numbers—and the broader Great River Road connects to river towns in both directions. Mark Twain's hometown of Hannibal, Missouri, is less than an hour south for a deeper dive into Mississippi River literary and cultural history. Hickory Haven Campground is a warm-weather operation that books up for summer weekends through a combination of loyal returning guests and destination campers drawn to the river country. The combination of full hookups, recreational amenities, a shaded natural setting, and proximity to the Mississippi makes it a standout campground in an often-overlooked corner of Iowa. Whether you're following the Great River Road, exploring the lock and dam culture of the upper Mississippi, or simply looking for a well-run campground with good shade and solid amenities, Hickory Haven delivers. Reserve your site and discover what southeastern Iowa's river country has to offer.

Lakeroad Village RV Park

11 RV Sites

Located in Kirksville, Missouri, in the rolling agricultural countryside of Adair County in the state's northeast quadrant, Lakeroad Village RV Park offers a quiet and well-maintained full-hookup camping experience in a region where the pace of rural Missouri life, the culture of Truman State University, and the natural resources of Thousand Hills State Park combine to support a surprisingly varied visitor experience. The park's emphasis on clean sites, wide site spacing, and open-air conditions suited to sunset viewing and stargazing gives it a comfortable baseline experience that rewards the patience of guests taking time to settle into a slower northeastern Missouri rhythm. Full hookup sites with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections provide the practical infrastructure for extended stays as well as overnight travel stops, and the park's wide site spacing gives guests the individual privacy that can be scarce at more densely developed campgrounds. Clean restroom and shower facilities are maintained to a standard that reflects the park's commitment to basic comfort, and on-site amenities support self-sufficient stays without requiring guests to make daily trips to Kirksville's retail corridor. The park's open character and elevation allow for evening horizon views that support the stargazing experience highlighted in the property's natural setting. Thousand Hills State Park, approximately three miles from the campground, is the region's primary natural recreation destination—a 3,215-acre park centered on Forest Lake that provides fishing, boating, hiking, swimming, and camping infrastructure in a setting of rolling Missouri Ozark transition landscape that contrasts productively with the flatter agricultural terrain of the surrounding county. Forest Lake supports fishing for largemouth bass, channel catfish, bluegill, and crappie, and the park's trail network traverses the wooded ridges above the lake with scenic overlooks and wildlife observation suited to guests interested in birding and natural area exploration. Kirksville itself offers more cultural depth than its size might suggest to first-time visitors. As the home of Truman State University—one of Missouri's premier liberal arts universities—the city supports a bookstore culture, arts programming, and campus events calendar that give it a college-town energy in the middle of a rural northeast Missouri agricultural landscape. The A.T. Still University Museum, which documents the history of osteopathic medicine founded in Kirksville by Andrew Taylor Still in 1892, provides a distinctive heritage experience available nowhere else in the state. Novinger Coal Museum and the Adair County Historical Society offer additional local history programming. Lakeroad Village RV Park is open through the spring-through-fall camping season, with the Missouri climate supporting comfortable outdoor recreation from April through October. The fishing season on Thousand Hills State Park's Forest Lake drives consistent spring and fall visitor demand, while summer months bring family camping traffic from across northeast Missouri. The park's quiet character and relatively uncrowded market position make it a reliably accessible destination even during summer weekends when larger Midwest campgrounds may be at capacity. Advance reservations are recommended for summer holiday weekends when the Thousand Hills area sees its peak visitation.

Starlight Trail RV Park

Starlight Trail RV Park in Kirksville, Missouri, offers oversized full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric, plus cabins, on a quiet country property minutes from town. A stocked fishing pond, billiards, and a general store serve guests staying a weekend or settling in for months. Full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric with fire pits and site WiFi. The sites are generously oversized, which gives large rigs room to spread out rather than parking tight to a neighbor. Cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, propane fills and exchange, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The park suits weekend getaways, family vacations, hunting trips, business travel, and extended stays equally — that flexibility is much of what it offers. On-site recreation is calm by design. A stocked pond supports fishing, billiards fill indoor hours, and a campfire and the quiet of the surrounding countryside handle the evenings. A golf course, river, and boating are nearby. Pets are welcome. Kirksville sits in Adair County in northeast Missouri, home to Truman State University. The surrounding attractions are more varied than the location suggests: Thousand Hills State Park, the Kirksville Aquatic Center, West Winery at Jackson Stables, Jacob's Vineyard and Winery, the Sugar Creek Conservation Area, the Adair County Historical Society, and the Del and Norma Robison Planetarium are all close. The park operates through the northeast Missouri season, with summer travel and fall hunting both drawing steadily. University event weekends tighten Kirksville lodging — reserve ahead if your stay overlaps one.

Jellystone Park™ Mark Twain Lake

7 RV Sites, 33 Cabins, 12 Tent Sites, 1 Lodge

Jellystone Park at Mark Twain Lake in Monroe City, Missouri, delivers the full Yogi Bear resort camping experience on the shores of Mark Twain Lake—a 18,600-acre reservoir on the Salt River in the northeastern Missouri prairie—creating a destination that combines one of the Midwest's most comprehensive Jellystone activity rosters with the fishing, boating, and natural exploration opportunities of a major Missouri reservoir set in the landscape of Mark Twain's boyhood territory along the Mississippi River's western bank. The park's extraordinary amenity depth and the lake's recreational resources combine to make this one of the Jellystone system's most capable Midwest family destinations. The park's resort infrastructure is exceptional even by Jellystone standards: a water park with splash pad, lazy river, and pool, mini-golf, a snack bar, bar, boutique shop, general store, golf cart rentals, boat storage, RV storage, full hookup sites, and cabin rentals form the physical plant, while the activity calendar delivers gold panning and gem mining, jumping pillow, gaga ball, horseshoes, corn hole, laser tag, volleyball, basketball, biking, stargazing, live music and entertainment, and the signature Yogi Bear character experiences that define the Jellystone brand's family entertainment identity. The pond and lake access extend the fishing and non-motorized water recreation opportunities beyond the water park. Mark Twain Lake, completed in 1984 by the US Army Corps of Engineers, was named in honor of Missouri's most celebrated literary son—Samuel Clemens, who grew up in Hannibal on the Mississippi River approximately 35 miles east of Monroe City—and the reservoir's name celebrates the connection between the northeastern Missouri landscape and the American literature it produced. The Salt River's impoundment created a diverse fishery for largemouth and striped bass, white crappie, walleye, and channel catfish in a reservoir whose numerous coves and points provide structure that supports one of Missouri's most productive multi-species fishing environments. Mark Twain's Hannibal, on the Mississippi River approximately 35 miles east via US-36, is the defining pilgrimage destination for American literature enthusiasts—a small Mississippi River city where the Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum, the cave that inspired Tom Sawyer's adventures in McDougal's Cave, Cardiff Hill, and the riverfront that shaped Clemens's imagination are preserved and interpreted in a heritage district that draws visitors from across the world. The Mark Twain State Park on the lake's shore provides additional fishing access, camping, and hiking in the surrounding oak and hickory woodland. Jellystone Park Mark Twain Lake operates seasonally from spring through early fall, with summer's school-vacation peak filling the water park and Jellystone activity programming from June through August and the fall fishing season extending meaningful outdoor recreation through October. The summer holiday weekends—Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day—represent the most competitive reservation periods, and families targeting these windows should book as early as the reservation system allows. The lake's consistent bass fishing, the water park's multi-activity recreation, and the Mark Twain heritage day trip create a vacation package of genuine depth for Midwest families within driving distance of northeastern Missouri.

Sankoty Lakes

Sankoty Lakes Resort in East Peoria brings a genuinely exceptional resort experience to the Illinois River Valley — built on the crystal-clear waters of the Sankoty Aquifer, one of the deepest and cleanest natural water sources in the Midwest, where spring-fed lakes have the remarkable clarity of a mountain trout stream in the flatlands of central Illinois. Twenty minutes from Peoria and two and a half hours from Chicago, Sankoty Lakes offers resort-quality amenities and a natural setting that consistently surprises guests who didn't know this caliber of Illinois camping experience existed. Accommodations range from glamping safari tents and well-appointed RV sites to upscale lakeside cabins sleeping up to eight guests — each with fully equipped kitchens, decks, and outdoor fire pits — and the exclusive 1840 Ranch House, a private guest property suited for larger groups and special occasion gatherings. The Woolly Bugger, Sankoty's signature on-site restaurant and bar, provides full-service dining and evening atmosphere that sets this resort clearly apart from conventional campground food. A beach pavilion and bathhouse, outdoor fireplace, free bicycles for guest use, picnic spots, a 24-hour front desk, and a coffee shop deliver service quality alongside the outdoor recreation. Pets are welcome at Sankoty Lakes Resort. The Sankoty Aquifer lakes provide a water recreation environment of genuinely unusual quality — the kind of visibility that makes kayaking, canoeing, and swimming feel like engagement with a natural aquarium rather than typical Midwest lake recreation. A dedicated fly-fishing trout stream on the property adds a specialty fishing experience alongside the lakes' broader angling, birdwatching, and hiking trails that keep guests occupied from dawn into the evening hours. Peoria, 20 minutes from the resort, offers more cultural depth than its Midwest city reputation sometimes suggests. The Caterpillar Visitors Center chronicles the engineering achievements of one of the world's great manufacturing companies in an interactive exhibition that resonates well beyond industrial tourism. The Peoria Riverfront Museum combines natural history, art, and a giant-screen theater in a well-funded facility anchoring the riverfront. The Peoria Zoo and the Historic District's restaurants and live music venues fill an evening excursion with ease. Starved Rock State Park, roughly an hour east, provides the Illinois River's most dramatic canyon scenery with 18 canyons, waterfalls, and trails for a full day of hiking. Sankoty Lakes Resort operates through the Illinois camping and resort season, with summer representing peak demand for the lakes' swimming, kayaking, and fishing recreation. The Woolly Bugger restaurant and the resort's premium amenity level have created a devoted local following — Sankoty lakes guests often describe the resort as a destination in its own right rather than a base camp for elsewhere. Reserve early for summer weekends and cabins, which fill ahead of RV and glamping tent availability.

Lakeside Casino Resort RV Park

38 RV Sites

Lakeside Casino Resort RV Park in Osceola, Iowa, offers 47 fully equipped campsites with water, sewage, electrical hookups, and Wi-Fi steps from the Lakeside Casino in Clarke County — a campground that combines the practical overnight infrastructure of a full-hookup RV park with the immediate access to the Lakeside Casino Resort's gaming, dining, entertainment, and hotel facilities in the southern Iowa plains community that the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska's Lakeside Casino has sustained as the primary commercial and entertainment hub for the Clarke County region since the casino's opening. Osceola's Clarke County position on Interstate 35 between Des Moines and Kansas City gives the campground the practical interstate convenience that I-35 through-travelers specifically value alongside the casino resort's entertainment programming. Forty-seven fully equipped sites with water, sewer, electrical hookups, and complimentary Wi-Fi adjacent to the casino give guests the complete RV living infrastructure in the most convenient possible relationship to the casino's programming — the walking-distance proximity to the Lakeside Casino eliminates the designated driver logistics that off-site campground guests require for evening casino visits, and the resort's dining options give campground residents the immediate restaurant access that extends the campground's meal planning flexibility. Pets are welcome. The Lakeside Casino, operated by the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska in Clarke County, sustains the gaming floor, multiple dining venues, entertainment programming, and the hotel accommodations that make Osceola's Clarke County position on I-35 a destination stop rather than a pass-through for the Des Moines-to-Kansas City corridor's leisure traveler. The casino's poker room, slots, and table game floor give guests the full Iowa gaming experience in a casino resort setting that the state's river and tribal gaming licenses distribute across the state's commercial recreation landscape. Nine Eagles State Park, 12 miles south of Osceola in Decatur County, provides the natural recreation complement to the casino entertainment programming — a 1,874-acre state park with a 85-acre lake, beach, fishing, camping, and hiking through the southern Iowa rolling timber land that the state park preserves as one of Iowa's most complete south-central state parks. Lake Rathbun, 50 miles east of Osceola in Appanoose County, is the largest lake in Iowa — an 11,000-acre Army Corps of Engineers reservoir that sustains the walleye, bass, and catfish fisheries that Iowa's most productive freshwater lake provides. Lakeside Casino Resort RV Park serves guests year-round in Clarke County's continental Iowa climate, where the year-round casino resort programming sustains visitor demand across all seasons independent of the outdoor recreation calendar. Des Moines, 60 miles north of Osceola on I-35 in Polk County, provides the Iowa State Fair (the largest state fair in the United States by attendance, held annually in late August), the Pappajohn Sculpture Park, and the Drake University campus that give the Clarke County campground's day-trip range into the Iowa capital city's cultural programming. Reserve sites ahead for the Iowa State Fair week and the summer casino entertainment programming peak when the I-35 south Iowa corridor's campground inventory fills from the regional market.

Ted's RV Park

26 RV Sites

At 308 Vine Street in Decatur City, Iowa—half a mile from Interstate 35 at Exit 12 in Decatur County in the rolling prairie countryside of southern Iowa where the open grass and row-crop agricultural landscape of the state's southern tier, the Wayne County line's deer and turkey hunting country, and the quiet rural community character of Decatur City create the specific southern Iowa rural setting that I-35 corridor travelers pass through without stopping when they haven't discovered Ted's RV Park—Ted's RV Park provides 26 full hookup sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, a playground, covered picnic area, renovated bathrooms, laundry, and free WiFi in the clean, reliable, year-round operation that a family-built campground opened in 2020 maintains with the owner-attention that chain-managed interstate campgrounds rarely replicate. Built from new infrastructure, the park's electrical, water, and sewer systems have none of the maintenance history that causes the power surges and pressure problems that older campground infrastructure generates. Twenty-six full hookup sites—9 back-in and 17 pull-through positions—with 20, 30, and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections serve the full range of RV configurations from modest travel trailers to large diesel pushers on sites designed from initial construction for easy pull-in access and adequate turning radius. Each site includes a fire ring and picnic table, with firewood available for purchase. A covered picnic area provides the outdoor communal gathering space that Iowa's summer afternoon thunderstorms make valuable when the weather interrupts open-air campfire time. A playground serves the youngest guests with the age-appropriate equipment that a family campground maintains as baseline infrastructure. Renovated bathrooms and an on-site laundry room with coin-operated equipment handle the shared hygiene and extended-stay practical requirements. Free high-speed WiFi covers the property for streaming, work, and navigation. Decatur County's southern Iowa landscape reflects the glacially modified prairie topography that the Wisconsin glaciation's ice sheet shaped into the gently rolling hills, wetland pockets, and intermittent stream drainages that the state's southern tier preserves in its agricultural character. The Des Moines River's upstream tributary network in the surrounding county provides the fishing access—channel catfish, largemouth bass, and bluegill in the slower backwaters—that rural Iowa's farm pond and stream fishing culture is built around. The Colyn Wildlife Area and nearby public hunting ground in Decatur County provide the deer and turkey hunting access that makes southern Iowa one of the most actively hunted whitetail landscapes in the Midwest during the November rut. The campground's half-mile distance from I-35 Exit 12 serves both the one-night transit traveler on the Des Moines–to–Kansas City corridor and the extended guest who discovers Decatur City's quiet value as a base for southern Iowa's outdoor recreation. The Missouri border lies 10 miles south, and the Lake Rathbun reservoir area in neighboring Appanoose County provides the most significant recreational water body in southern Iowa within easy driving distance—bass fishing, waterfowl hunting, and the Honey Creek Resort State Park's full-service lodge and recreation complex make Rathbun a practical day trip from the Decatur City base. Ted's RV Park is open year-round, one of the relatively few Iowa campgrounds that maintains winter operations for the small but consistent population of traveling workers, snowbird transitional stops, and hunting camp guests who need south-central Iowa accommodation from October through March. Summer camping, fall hunting season, and the spring turkey season create the three demand peaks. Reserve your pull-through site, check the firewood supply at arrival, and let Decatur County's prairie quiet earn the rest that I-35's 75-miles-per-hour constant motion specifically doesn't provide.

Pets are welcome. Hazel Green sits in Grant County near the Mississippi's Wisconsin shore, in the unglaciated Driftless hill country. Dubuque, Iowa and Galena, Illinois are both close. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.
