Blanding Landing

Wonderful campground and the main bathrooms offed private showers.

I was orginally going to site 11, all the sites on that side had a drop off. Our class c would have bottomed out if we tried to pull into that site. I was able to book us into site 21, which worked out great.

We LOVED Blanding Landing. We were there in October and the flies were horrendous, but I guess it was their season. We were one of 4 RV's there during the week, so it was very quiet.
Ann, the campground host was great. She'd come and check on us daily and was very helpful. We invited her to join us around the campfire one night and we had a wonderful visit.
The restrooms/showers were very clean. There are water spigots spread around the campground, so you can fill your tanks in different spots around the campground, which was nice. Our 5th is about 36', and some of the turns were a bit tight, so we'd have to go a different direction. Nothing horrible. We were at campsite 14 and it was pretty hard getting into because the "driveway" had a fairly noticeable angle and also low hanging branches. That campsite was not at all level, so it took awhile and we have auto leveling. If your RV is large maybe, choose a different sight.
Other reviews mention the train, which does come through frequently all day and night long. We weren't bothered by it, but it might be an issue for some.
The topography is gorgeous, being it's in the driftless area. We took some hikes around the area. You are definitely in the boonies. To get there, we drove through Galena and then 13 mi down a pretty desolate road. There are some houses along the way, but it's pretty rural. The drive is beautiful with rolling hills. Trailer brakes were used. lol
We drove to Savanna one day. Spent some time at Poopy's, which is always fun. On the way home we stopped at the Iron Horse which has some amazing motorcycle memorabilia. Spent one day in Galena, which is always fun.

Beautiful area with lots of things to do and see. Campground is very well maintained and the host, Ann, was very helpful and friendly. The trains and signs added to our entertainment, but it might not be for everyone.

The campground was very well maintained. The staff was helpful. The town of Galena is a great place to visit.

Other than the mosquitoes it was a decent place to camp.

Campsite was very nice, clean showers and restrooms also has a boat launch. 10 min from eagle ridge resort! That being said we thought we were in a tent only spot and we had a camper right next to us. Big led lights on, tv going and air conditioner running. Our spot would have had a really nice view of the backwater but the brush was blocking it. Campsite 13. The campsite host was extremely nice and helpful one of the best!

We pulled in with a flat tire on our RV. The Host, Ann was quick to help us by inflating our tire so we could get it off and to our site. After 2 hours, we still couldn't get the tire off so she recruited a fellow camper and a neighbor. They all helped us and were amazing people!! The campground was beautiful and very clean. We will be back!

We visited Blanding Landing during the middle of the week in September and found it quiet and peaceful - mostly. There are nearby freight trains that run several times a day and occasionally at night. However, for us, we found it interesting. We also enjoyed watching the recreational boats come and go from the boat ramp. The campground host was friendly and helpful. Bathroom was clean and Blanding Landing is definitely a place we would return to if we are in the area again.

Site #8 was level. Site was grass and well drained.
Campground itself was well maintained and bathrooms clean.

Perhaps not as well developed as other Army core of engineers campgrounds, but I would consider it excellent.
