We should’ve known this was a party-place, by all the trash that was left on the sites. I’m just thankful that the drunks did not run us over when they finally left the campground. There was no cell phone reception either, so it’s not like I could call someone. They were LOUD until 1:41am, when they finally left. This led to very loud obnoxious campers, as well as partiers that barreled into camp at 11:35 pm-laughed and talked loudly with every other word being a profanity, and the partying girls joking about how they continued to urinate behind their cars.

Worst campground ever!!! No one to enforce any type of curfew, at all. We pretty much didn’t sleep a wink at Stone State Park in Iowa. Overall, really enjoyed our stay here, especially the forest trail hiking. The town of Sioux City was accessible for a few grocery/ice needs we had. She was knowledgable and friendly and it was just our family so very enjoyable pace. Each had electric.Ī college student park summer intern, Hannah, offered us with a lovely guided hike each day. The water source is very close to sites 10 and 11 (immediately across the small street). We visited during the COVID pandemic and generally everyone was wearing masks indoors, appropriately not so much outdoors at the individual campsites. The Nature Center was well maintained -great observational bee hive indoors and explanations of the local terrain and environment. Multiple trails to choose from, wooded and shaded for the most part. Site 10 had some shade, but 11 really didn't so we would have been quite hot in the tent site if we hadn't had the luxury of the RV awning from site 10 to help shade the area between the tent and RV. The campground was only about half full, and therefore the facilities next door and up the hill were rarely utilized. These two sites together gave us the feeling of privacy, likely made more so by the fact that site 9 was a little flooded and unoccupied. We had booked sites 10 and 11, had an RV and a tent.
