This is a small Campground, but boy is it one of the most premiere out of the way spots to see American Bald Eagles-- a Birder's delight, there's a LOT of nests right around this area and dotting both directions along the Mississippi River. I also love it because it's close to family. Pros: - Nice management and Parks Dept. upkeep. - Some renovation/ refurbishment to improve the stability of the Campsite. - Several Concrete pads with Electric and Water hookups. - Several Tent/ pitch sites. - Playground for Children and Park bench/ tables. - A small restroom and Shower facility. - Lots of natural views (especially the Eagles). - Swimming and Boating access right on the River. - Excellent Fishing, lots of Catfish. - Easy access to downtown Keithsburg and neighboring towns, only a 20 to 25 minute drive to Aledo, and about 35 to 45 minute drive to Burlington. - Located in a Historic Town. Cons: - Small Campground so space is limited. - Some noise from local use of Sporting/ off road vehicles and boats. - These grounds are sandy and in a Flood zone, so even with the great improvements one does have to be cognizant of risks during very rainy periods. Follow all evacuation orders if announced. - BE CAREFUL when swimming in the Mississippi River! It is an extremely strong current with many random undertows, stay within the designated area and watch children at all times when in the water.

Fabulous new campground hosts this year, 2021. Best since Paul Williams took care of it years ago. Little gem with river view.

My only complaint is the noisey utv n atv driving all hours of the night n day! So much noise pollution! Wish they were outlawed. Golf carts are fine but those noisy atv n utv are super annoying!! Otherwise love this campground!

It's open all the time technically. The only times the gates are closed is when it's winter or if there's flooding. Sure the gates are closed, but you can still have a nice time walking there. The gates usually open March, whenever you have a string of warm days. In summer it's open 24/7.
