Outdoor public pools are available in nearby Lancaster, Platteville, and Dubuque, but are seasonal. The Mississippi river is available to swim in, but the nearest, official, public beach that I can find is the Wyalusing Recreation Area up near Prarie du Chein ( two miles south of the Wyalusing State Park). If you want to swim in the Mississippi near the Grant River Recreation Area, you can not swim from the boat dock/ramp. You could probably walk into the river anyplace else in the park, but the shoreline is rocky with protective rip-rap. The water in August looked pretty shallow and there were a lot of aquatic weeds ( which probably means a muddy river bottom). If you choose to do that, I would wear tennis shoes to protect your feet from lost fish hooks and sharp rocks/clam shells. As with anywhere in the Mississippi River other than a designated swimming beach, I would wear a life jacket in case you stepped into an unseen hole ( the water is too murky to see the bottom ).

No not from campground but if you have a boat they can't stop you from swimming in the river

No

No. You'd have to go to Dubuque to their pool.

Sorry but don't think so
