Far better than any private campground I’ve stayed in. I do wish the gate keepers were allowed to register campers who arrive with no reservation.

I spent two nights a few days apart this trip as I had to return to have a repair at my prior stop. I stayed at site 9 and 17. I usually stay a couple of times annually and have always found the sites clean, well maintained and most are reasonably level. The camp host is helpful and pleasant. The tank dump area has always been clean and the dump water hoses maintained well. Cell service on my Verizon network is good. I do prefer entering the campground from Shueyville as those roads are all paved. The route in from Solon is partially dirt road and can be very wash boardy or dusty depending on the weather.

This is another great USACE facility. A bit smaller than some of the others we have stayed at, but equally well maintained. Nice boat launch just down the road next to the campground and although we didn't get out on Corralville Lake, it looked like a great body of water to explore. We enjoyed watching the huge flocks of American White Pelicans that cruised the skies while we were there. There aren't any trails, and the campground is a hub for fisherman and boaters for the most part. It's great that there is a fish cleaning station near the boat launch also. The showers were clean and had great pressure. It's an easy drive into North Liberty or Corralville for supplies also. The road in was easy for us to navigate with our 42 ft class A and dingy vehicle, and the interior roads are paved and also easy to navigate. Pads were all gravel and we had enough room for our motorhome in our 50 ft site. Water is available at the dump station when you enter the campground so fill up there as there is no water at the sites. 30 amp power was strong and we had no problems.

Nice little campground on the edge of the lake. Spaces 1-17 were nicely landscaped and well presented. Do pay attention to the site details. We were in site 13 and while it said it was level, my F250 and 35 ft Trailer were not all level parked in there.

Do be aware there are water taps at the water fountains if you need water, however, we brought our tanks filled.

Also, DO be aware that you cannot get to the lake from the first loop. You have to go down to the actual boat launch to get to the Sandy Beach.
