Double Nickel Campground
24 RV Sites
Double Nickel Campground in Waco, Nebraska, offers 24 full-hookup pull-through RV sites on the I-80 corridor, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 120 feet, behind a gated entrance. Categories are sized by rig — Big Rig, under 35 feet, and under 30 feet — with an outdoor pool, mini-golf, storm shelter, and recreation center. Twenty-four sites are pull-through throughout, spanning Big Rig, under 35 feet, and under 30 feet categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 120 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Sizing by rig class is genuinely fair, and 120 feet on an all-pull-through layout is exactly what a long-haul interstate stop should offer. The WiFi has been upgraded multiple times and carries good signal across the park. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The storm shelter is a real safety feature in Nebraska rather than a marketing line. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, an arcade, recreation center, basketball, volleyball, gaga ball, horseshoes, a playground, and dog park filling the rest. Cabins are available, and a golf course is nearby. York County sits in the practical middle of Nebraska on I-80, which makes this one of the most useful stops on a long crossing — and enough on-site recreation that families from Lincoln and Omaha come for the weekend rather than just the night. Summer interstate traffic drives demand. Reserve ahead for holiday travel periods.

Lakeside Casino Resort RV Park
38 RV Sites
Lakeside Casino Resort RV Park in Osceola, Iowa, offers 38 pull-through RV sites steps from the casino, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 60 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A single 30/50-amp pull-through category means no backing at any site, with a lake, outdoor pool, fitness center, and on-site dining. Thirty-eight sites are pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, cable TV, and site WiFi, sized to 60 feet, with picnic tables. One consistent spec and no guesswork. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and a business center handle the practical side. Two seasonal notes worth planning around: the main water is shut off for the winter beginning December 1, with potable water available at the north end of the park, and in severe weather or a tornado warning guests should seek shelter as directed on arrival. An outdoor pool and fitness center anchor the property, with a lake supporting boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming, plus hiking and on-site dining. The casino sits immediately adjacent. Pets are welcome. The casino adjacency is the whole proposition — a full-hookup RV park where the gaming floor, restaurants, and entertainment are a walk rather than a drive, which is a genuinely uncommon combination in Iowa. Clarke County sits on I-35 about 45 minutes south of Des Moines, which also makes this a practical interstate stop. Demand runs year-round on casino traffic rather than a tourist season, with summer the peak. Reserve ahead for event weekends, and plan around the winter water shutoff.

Full hookup and water-and-electric categories join a pool, jumping pillow, and pond, open all year. One hundred fifty-eight sites run in full hookup and water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Accessible sites are available. Ten cabins and seven tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and recycling handle the practical side. If the office is closed when you arrive, call 515-987-1714 ahead and they will make arrangements. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a jumping pillow, recreation center, arcade, billiards, ping pong, sports courts, and volleyball filling the grounds. A pond supports fishing, with a playground, dog park, and community fire pit besides. Pets are welcome. The owners describe it as country camping with city convenience, and the geography backs that up — shaded sites in genuine Dallas County countryside, a mile and a half from the interstate and minutes from West Des Moines. Summer is the peak, with the interstate position bringing steady through-traffic year-round. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.
