Amana RV Park & Event Center

This is a large open field where there are some hookups. We stayed here to visit the Amana Colonies, which had been recommended to us. This RV park was closest to the areas we wanted to visit. When we arrived, they directed us to our spot. The spot was half gravel/dirt and half tall weeds. The sites are very long but they are not pull throughs. You are back to back with your neighbor on the same large site. Also, the drainage is poor so you getting some pockets of standing water/mud.

Also, the Amana Colonies were fun but not a true "attraction".

My husband and I, along w/friends in another camper had travelled at least 6 hours and while in route I and my husband were calling and searching for a place to stay the night. It was the week of 4th of July; yes, shame on me for not making a reservation earlier. Won’t do that again. Everything was booked! Amana RV gave us a place to stay. We were so thankful and blessed for the accommodations. It was so pretty there. It was roomy, showers and restrooms were clean and stocked. There wasn’t much shade in the area we were in. But we were just staying the night. Our camper sat on a gravel drive and the grass was thick but mowed. So, even if it rained you wouldn’t be standing or tracking in mud. The staff was very friendly. Even the town looked to be intriguing with its shops and at least 1 German restaurant. Anyway, our campsite was $32 with AAA discount. Free wi-fi. I give this campground 4 1/2 stars. Thank you Amana Rv for your hospitality. -Avon, IN

We picked this place because of its proximity to the Amana Colonies and it was great for that. The campground is one huge field with gravel packed strips in among the grassy field which meant three days of rain left puddles and mud and lots of challenges when walking to the central shower house. Not a great experience.

This is mostly an event venue so no trees and no privacy. There are two campsites in each strip so you have the potential of being backed up to another camper. Both campsites feed off the same electric and water posts so you could potentially be right on top of each other.

The shower house is centrally located but it's old with a concrete floor and unheated showers. The people in the office were pleasant enough but gave us some seriously misleading information about the area, so be advised if you do decide to stay here while in the area.

As other reviewers noted this a nice park. Parking on gravel/grass. Rate was for FHU.

Lots of history in this area. Great area for using your bike as they have trails that go to the various colonies and around the largest lily pond I have ever seen. Spectacular.

Close to Cedar Rapids if you need anything major.

We stayed here one overnight while passing through. They were having a "wood festival" while we were there, but we left too early to check it out. The one surprise thing we found is that there is a local theater company right across the street. We saw the show the night we were there (Shear Madness) and it was a lot of fun. They only had 50 amp sites available, but provided us with an adapter at no cost.

We stayed here a week in early September and would stay again. We enjoyed the quiet sites, rural location, super satellite reception (young trees). It was going to be a hot week when we arrived so they faced us North to avoid the sun coming in the windshield.

There are plenty of little shops and places to eat, there is a grocery store gas station within 1-2 miles but you may want to stock up on supplies before you arrive because the box stores are a bit of a drive away, which we like.

Sites are level and spacious.
