I was here over a weekend in July. I was in a spot in the middle so there were some trees but not many. The spots around the edges are in full shade.. The bathrooms and showers have been recently upgraded and are really nice.
There are hiking trails that go through the woods and down to the Des Moines River and back around across the open prairie. Lots of flowers. I think some of the trails are a snowmobile trail in the winter. All of the roads and the sites are gravel.

We had site 9 which was a pill through site in Loop A. Our site had good space and good privacy. Some of the other sites, especially those in Loop B dont offer much privacy. The campground was mostly quiet with the exception of the usual annoying children. The sunrise and sunset views from the campground are pretty and the sites at the south end of Loop A have a good view of the Milky Way. We arrived on a Friday and through Sunday morning our loop was probably 75% full and Loop B was probably 90% full. After the weekenders left Sunday morning we were the only people in loop A and Loop B was maybe 25% full. My partner enjoyed the trails at the park. There is no dump station in the park. There is a dump station behind the Burger King in Jackson but the sewer inlet was higher than the outlet on our trailer so drainage didnt work well and the rinse water pressure was not strong enough to be effective. We ended up not finishing and doing it closer to home. The Verizon LTE coverage was mostly reliable.
