Very nice and quite campground and close to the nuclear power plant which was good for me since I was there for an outage. Only problem I had there was a creepy guy staying in a tent keep trying to harass me but the park rangers took care of him. Very nice place and would definitely stay again if I’m in the area for work.
I love coming to Lowden. It's absolutely beautiful and you can hike and camo here as well. It's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.
Very well kept. Park. Sights are electricity only but still nice. Oregon Illinois is nearby and a very clean town. The waterfall on the rock river is nice to view. Blackhawk statue was cool but under repair.
