The campground was kept up very nicely. The couple working as camp hosts do and excellent job! We had a really nice time there.

TRAIN LOVER's DREAM! One of the best maintained and prettiest campgrounds within the Army Corps of Engineers system. Clean and well maintained by camp hosts and well visited by supportive Park Rangers, Brent and Brennan. A Great view of the mighty Mississippi and close enough, (but not too close) to Dubuque when the need arises; with adult beverages and ice cream, not far away in Potosi. And yes, there is a train… If you love trains, you will love this place. If you don't love trains, you may still get a kick out of the frequent passing of the locomotives and their freight cars. Also seeing the 3x15 barges plying the river reminds us of aspects of why this is the greatest country EVERRRRR!

Great campground, except for very loud trains that were about 100 ft from the campsite. Too loud all day and all night. Unless you want to hear loud trains and the very loud horns, stay away. I gave 5 stars though because the site itself was awesome and the hosts were fantastic. I would definitely come back if there’s ever a train employees strike!

This campground is beautiful. It is well kept and clean. It’s right on the Mississippi and has trains going through. The trains aren’t too loud. It’s a really quiet, nice relaxing campground. We had an awesome view of the river. I highly recommend trying out this campground. We will definitely be going back next year.
