There are 10 acres nature timber area that keep you away from the other campers and rest of the world. Each site has a firepit, picnic table and a solar light .

Hope you will find joy, peace and happiness in this wonderful piece of natural land and the Red Rock lake areas. A little history of this land: This 40 acres of land was a surface mining site. The reclamation works done during the 1970s. But over the years, the soil was seriously eroded. Anna and Peilin, who have Master's and PhD in soil and environment health background, bought this land several years ago and started to restore the vegetation. Now the site looks beautiful and ready for nature lovers and campers to enjoy the fantastic view of the lake, ponds and tall grass... The site is totally different from what the Google map shows now.

Glamping in Fantastic Geodesic Dome

This spot was a true gem! Gorgeous, near enough to supplies, and our dogs could get their kicks out. So many small conveniences like not one but two shower bags! Anna and her husband even came out to help us with the AC within 30 minutes. We can’t wait to come spend longer.

Tent/RVs Site 3 - on top of a hill

Great spot!

Hipcamp Tri-pond follow up: Very cool and picturesque place to camp (rolling Iowa countryside). Sites are very well kept and have picnic tables as well as full fireplaces with grates and tripod hangers for cooking. Overall much more pleasant experience than the usual state park, thats for sure!
