Summary
AI generated
Shady Creek is a well-maintained campground along the Mississippi River, offering spacious, level concrete sites and a peaceful atmosphere for relaxation. Many visitors appreciate the friendly staff, clean facilities, and scenic views, as well as the proximity to local attractions like Wildcat Den State Park. While some noted issues with bathroom maintenance and nearby train noise, the overall experience is positive, making it a favored spot for short getaways.
We were booked to stay three nights but only stayed one That itself says a lot. Positives were the river location and clean facilities. Also the campground host was helpful and friendly. The bigest negative and the reason for leaving early were the outdoor lights other campers seem to think they need. As my wife put it " If they are that afraid of the dark they should stay home" . The camper next to us had strips of blue LED lights laid out on the ground around their camper and the one behind us had flashing red and blue LED lights around theirs. We felt like we were being pulled over by the airport security on the runway, and they were on ALL NIGHT! As there is a quiet time for noise, there should be a lights out time for decorative lighting. Also a minor disapointment that probably can't be heiped is that the river has been low for so long and the vegatation on the bank grown up so much some of the nice view is obstructed
We love this campground! We were here for 9 days in September for a high school reunion. It is close enough to Muscatine to attend all of the activities, but we get to stay along the river and enjoy the sights and sounds that go along with that. This is always our go to place to stay when we come to visit. We really appreciate the concrete pads to park on and the concrete patios in the back loop of the park are great too. The area is always clean and well maintained.

The host was amazing! We needed to make some adjustments to our stay and she went out of her way to keep us from having to change sites half way through our stay.
Shady Creek is accessible via Highway 22, which connects to major roads in the region.
Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
