Rating: 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: There was no one else camping there when we camped. Nice little park but rather wet and muddy. Our Verizon hot spot worked and we got three channels on the tv! Electric only. - Lynn-Donny

Rating: 9 10 9 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: It is a nice park. Things to do in the park, biking, rafting, shooting. - hotpepperkid99
We really enjoyed this quiet county park! Black Hawk County runs several RV parks and they really take care of them well. Black Hawk Park has spacious back-ins and a couple of pull thrus. Most are FHU but a few are electric only. Sites are generously spaced apart, some with full shade and others with partial shade, & big rig suitable. Our site was over 60' long with a level concrete pad. They don't take reservations. You self-register at a kiosk. Nearby Big Woods RV park is also county run and very similar, except it does take reservations for some sites. Our pedestal had a bad 50A circuit breaker and the county promptly sent someone to repair it. If you ride a bike, you'll love all the bike trails that connect the campgrounds to miles of well-maintained paved trails through Cedar Falls and Waterloo. There's also a free archery range and gun range in the park. We were there over a weekend in July and many sites were still available. Verizon had a strong signal and ATT had a weak but functional signal. We had a satellite friendly site. We'll be back for a longer visit! - Danno

People start arriving on Wednesday and by Friday, its pretty full. On Sunday they all leave and the process starts all over again. We stayed there for 18 days. - hotpepperkid

Rating: 8 8 6 10 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Very nice campground on the edge of Big Woods Lake. A few back in sites have great views of the lake. All sites are spacious with FHU 50 service, gravel and grass. This is a newer park so most trees are small, not much shade. Each site also has a picnic table and fire pit. Self registration, checks or cash only. Pull through sites in the center rows and back-ins along the perimeter. Paved 2 mile path around the lake. Free wi-fi. Worked pretty well while we were here, but not too many units here in the fall. Bathrooms were nice, but needed some cleaning. We did not see the camp host in the three days we were here. Great biking trails all around Cedar Falls and Waterloo area. - krb
We were a little worried heading to Cedar Falls due to a lot of rain and some flooding. The nearby Cedar River was out of its banks but did not impact us. Our GPS devices eventually agreed upon the route and brought us right to the park. The roads were wide and asphalt and the sites were gravel. The full hookups were convenient and we had a great line of sight for our roof mounted satellite dish. We would stay at this park again. - Bob & Jo
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Big Woods Lake Campground »This is a lovely county park situated on a small lake, just off Hwy 218 north of Cedar Falls. The sites are roomy with hard packed gravel for the full hook up sites. There are also grassy sites for tents or other units not using hookups. I would give it a solid 9 but the highway noise and the frequent trains right at the edge of the campground make it a less pleasant experience. It is still worth the low cost for full hookup 30\50 amp sites if you don't wake up easily. The campground is pretty new so the trees are very small and provide no shade. Lots of grass though. We were here during a period of prolonged rain, and the mosquitoes ate us alive. Bring repellent if you come during wet periods. Make sure your GPS routes you to the campground, not Big Woods Lake Park. The park is on the other side of the lake, and it is tedious to get to the campground from there. Take the Lone Tree Road exit off Hwy 218 and follow the signs. - UTTransplant

Rating: 8 4 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Decided to try this park rather than stay in a Walmart for the night. Very convenient location to US 63. Was quite surprised when we arrived. Very nice well kept park, it was kind of tight getting around with our 35' toyhauler with lots of trees and had to trim a branch or two, but being very careful and moving slowly was able to back into site 10 on the loop right on the bank of the river. Self serve park, camping fee was $10 +$5 for electricity. Electric was 30 amp. Was one camper and a van when we pulled in right by the entrance, but back along the river we were all alone. We had great Verizon & AT&T Data. Had a dump station and water available. Firewood available for $5 donation. Would have dry camped for $10, but so much shade decided to opt for the additional $5 for electricity. - dmkimm

It had rained a lot when we were here with our 40' MH and we almost got stuck. There currently is no camp host so it is self registration. Bath and shower building was locked with instructions on the door to call if they were needed. We were the only campers in the park. - Jim01

Rating: 8 7 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: George Wyeth Park recently re-opened after severe flooding closed facilities for previous month. Restrooms and showers presently closed due to effects of flooding. Park will need significant work to clean up surrounding hiking trails and to get facility back up and running to its fullest. Beautiful location along the banks of Cedar River. Camping site provides electric only but water and dump station available. - Gboro
Mostly level, shaded, quiet sites with electric HU only - water and dump station available. Several are long enough for a 35' fifth wheel and tow vehicle. Nice showers/restrooms. There are tent sites on the river, but RV sites are further back. Good cell reception and a few OTA TV channels. Couldn't enjoy the picnic table, fire ring or hiking trail because the mosquitoes were so bad, but that has been typical elsewhere too. - TheRollingJones

This is a very clean park, easy access, Wi-Fi, storm shelter, clean new showers and rest rooms. They are in the process of installing sewer and water to all sites however, when we were here: only electric. They do have a dump location and city water near the shower house. We stayed here to check out the barn quilts in this area. - kstrail

Rating: 4 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: OK park. Gravel road in was dusty. It rained during the night and the road was a gooey mess on the way out. Fresh crushed limestone, left a mess everywhere on truck and trailer. An older park that needs a lot of cleanup and work. Very quiet, roomy site. Almost empty on a Sunday night. Nice young lady at checked in. - GOTTOYS
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for River Ranch Camping »We stayed for 3 weeks before moving to Oakwood RV in Clear Lake. River Ranch is very woodsy. It is in the area that had flooding this past year so there were a lot of mosquitoes. The owners were very nice and they are working to get the park back into shape after the flood. They have cabins for rent and you can rent canoes, paddle boats and three wheel bikes.You can swim in the river and they usually have plenty of deer to feed in an in-closed area but that is being repaired also. If you are planning on staying for a period of time you would have to go to Charles City to shop and do laundry or to Waverly. We probably would have stayed there but we could not get phone service nor could we get the internet (which is needed for business). It's a good place to go to get away from it all and relax. - tandiee

Rating: 8 8 9 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: The park was quite nice and relaxed. The FHU sites were packed, and we saw almost no turnover in the 8 days we were there. The keep 1-2 FHU for overnighters. There was always sites with just electric and water. Most sites backed up into large grassy areas. Many were well shaded. Tent camping looked Spectacular. Noise from highway was bothersome in our area of the camp. The river was murky, but they had had 8" of rain upstream just prior to our arrival. Decent park for kids with lots of room, tons of playgrounds, easy access for launching kayaks and such. There is also a disc frisbee course we didn't see. We would stop here again. - Sheryl E
We stayed for one night. When arriving at 4:00 pm we were lucky to secure the last pull through. This space is designated to be available for one night stay only. They do not accept reservations at this park. It is fairly level with FHU. Site #117. The big attraction appears to be the river frontage. Kids would love the abundance of playground equipment. There is an extremely nice paved trail (six feet wide) just outside the CG. I rode a bike for 30 minutes out and 30 minutes back, not sure if I reached the end. It was a good place to overnight, it served our purpose. WiFi signal was strong. Appears to be many local seasonal campers. - Sunnie-Wheelhouse
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Deerwood Park »This campground within a park is a little gem that doesn't seem to get much publicity. The park is beautiful, on a river and with a small lake. There are very nice playgrounds and a boat launch ramp. We were passing through for just one night, and it had what we needed. There is self check in, and it was very inexpensive with full hook ups and strong wifi. The park was not crowded and we had our pick of spots. The bathroom is not fantastic, but was fine for us. There was a small laundry. We would happily stay here again. - SaneJane
