River Camp RV site

Great spot and easy to pull into. Close drive to the state park from the campground. The wildlife and birds in the mornings are wonderful to wake up to. Only a few steps away from the creek and great for the dogs to run around in!

Loren was a great host and very receptive to questions. The river was high so there wasn't a place to get down to the water. We will come back again.

River Camp RV site

Private and quiet

We stayed in May for a few days with our dog. We picked this place because of the reviews and we were visiting Dyersville (Field of dreams) Loren was a great host, and replied quickly to any questions we had. We loved how private we were. Although our stay was wet and cool, I would stay there again. Very thick bush. I wish we could have seen the river from camp, but it was a quick 2 minute walk to the rivers edge. Thank you Loren.

Feels like country, close to town

Private single RV full hook up along the Iowa River. Less than 10 minutes from Iowa City. Able to walk through the woods with our dogs off leash. Will be even nicer after owner has spring time to clear off the little trails. Would stay again.

Very clean comfortable site. So close to everything in Iowa City yet felt like we were completely alone. Very dark so star gazing amazing
