Outhouses for bathrooms. Small campground with a boat ramp and playground. Pavilion rental with campfire, water and playground.
Had fun walking around on the trails & on the sandbar. Very peaceful & relaxing. Only 4 stars because there isn't many place to park if you're not camping, otherwise it's great (:
I grew up in these parks, in fact I was born in the old dance hall at the top of the hill. I spent my youth fishing in the lime stone quarries, swimming in the cedar river, and hiking all over these trails.
It is an amazing place with so much history and natural beauty. There is even a prehistoric Native American cave just north of the bridge on the east bank of the river.
If you are ever driving through Iowa on Interstate 80 take the time to have a picnic lunch here and enjoy this hidden time lost gem of a park.
