Great campground, all spots have plenty of room. Not cramped at all. Playground for the kids, lots of trails and fishing spots. Nice beach with covered picnic tables

Camping without a car that broke down and can't get to a ATM cause don't have a ride desperately to get to a ATM to pay for the camp site 🙃 otherwise being threatened to be kicked out cause we can't afford to figure out exactly what is wrong with our car nobody wants to help us. I truly truly can't believe it dnr ranger pulls me over on my only one thing I have worked on for over 5 years and our life saver for running to town for ATM food whatever it is it saved our butts when we are broke we could get to town and back on a dollar and this DNR one of my super heroes growing up but this past Sunday changed that for the rest of my life I have been riding my homemade motorbike around Webster County for over a year and half probably 2 years and Fort Dodge PD knows about it and me that I'm barred driver and wouldn't do anything to me because it's under 49cc engine on it it's a lawn mower engine. And as I was also being removed from the Webster County fair grounds the grounds keeper had the sheriff department asked me to be removed from the property due to me having to many items for camping thinking that I was moving in but not really concerned about the grounds keeper yet his days coming for going into into my tent and stealing from me video is a great thing besides that I was packing up my thing's while the sheriff department was staying there while I packed up and I had no car except my motor bike so I had a buddy who helped me but when we got all packed up there really wasn't room for the motor bike and so I went and asked the sheriff that has been there for the past 5 hours what I can do about the mini bike and he's wondering the same thing and he says we'll Bob your barred driver's license and I said I know that but that mini bike is 49cc ir less and he said ohh OK do you have a headlight and I said of course OK ride on the side of the road and be careful and I said yes of course thank u and have a great night so I road it from fair grounds to doliver state park after 2 am and through town seen by a couple city cops and they waved at me. So I'm at doliver a couple weeks and riding almost every day or night to town and no problem until this past Sunday afternoon going through Coalville and get pulled over by Ed Elkin C-202 and what was my hero was asking if I built it and I said yes for over 5 years and the past 3 years made it way more difficult for me due😥 accident that I lost most of my left hand and I'm left handed on top of that story. So he gets my information from me and runs it and a sheriff sheriff shows up and than tells me that DNR used to be my hero has mid Iowa towing coming and I fell to my knees and pretty much started crying 😢 😭 because I can't ever get anything back from these guys because I can't afford it but gives me 3 tickets for one it can't be registered because there's not a Vin number on it 2 gives me a driving while barred ticket and the cops and sheriff department didn't do either one and 3rd ticket no insurance warning and said he was giving me a break on that but takes my one and only thing I have left in my life and laughing about it and knowing that he didn't need to have it towed but he thought it would be funny to do so. So the nice sheriff offer me a ride back to our camp site or where I was going witch was into Fort Dodge to borrow 30 dollars for the last 2 nights at doliver and kindly drops me off and so I ho get the money and if course just already know that none of my couple friends could help me get back out to doliver because I took there last bit of money for our campsite so we wouldn't get kicked out and my girlfriend who's in bad health stuck in her car cause she can't walk and so I had to walk back to doliver and almost 6 hours later I showed up 430 am and she's mad cause she couldn't get to the bathroom and I had to walk and let me tell you that is a long walk. So my experience with camping at brushy is OK except being threatened by these rangers cause we don't have cash on us that we can't get to a ATM isn't good and I'm worried about it because I have to get to
