The charming natural beauties and it's healing powers! Four beautiful view campsites situated in the quiet peaceful campground that has 3 private ponds with fish, and 10-acre all nature tree areas in the fenced 40 acres hilly land. It is about 50 miles in the capital city Des Moines. The site has good cell phone signal from most providers. The geodesic dome tent is the only one in Iowa, provided more climate controlled stay while still enjoying the magnificent nature's gift.
**We are open year around for you to enjoy four seasons world excitement**: Springs, Summers, Falls and of course winters!!
All of 4 campsites have plenty of space and is apart from each other with good privacy. Each site has a fire pit with a tripod for food cooking, a "picnic table" and a solar light. Drinking water tap is near the entrance, not at each site. For RVs, you can add water before you get in the gate. Site 1, site 2 and site 3 are on top of the hills with a beautiful view of ponds and lake, and site 4 is in woods with has full shade in summer and walking trails in woods.
The are also a lots to do nearby the red Rock lake areas. The Whitebreast camping and swimming Beach, Red rock lake boat ramp, Historic Coal Ridge Church, Stu Kuyper hiking trail and Youth park are within one mile from our camping site.
Tri-Pond camping sites are the perfect campsites for family relaxing camping, Van-camping, road trip stops, friends gathering, or come and stay for local events in the nearby cities, such as in Des Moines, Newton, Pella, Knoxville, Oskaloosa, Monroe, Pleasantville, Indianola etc.. Tulip Time, hot balloon Festival, car race…
Notes: four wheel vehicle recommended since the campground is hilly here and there. You will need bug repellent during summer. We do not use any chemicals on site. Ticks are common during earlier spring and summer in grassy areas and woods, but not usually found during Fall and Winter. There may be hunting gun sounds near or far during hunting seasons, these are from public land nearly. we do not allow any kinds of hunting or trapping on our camping ground.
The site has plenty of space for big rig boondocking near the gate.

Beautiful lake and right next to an amazing town (Knoxville) If any part of Iowa is heaven it’s Knoxville and lake red rock
The horse trails are better than the regular hiking trails. Also the tower needs some wasp removal.
