Missouri Valley City Park

Didn’t do much research and just needed a place for the night. It’s a nice safe area, easy walk to grocery store, etc, but the trains!!! They started coming thru around 8pm and are now every 20 minutes. Looong trains that rumble and blow their horns. It’s a Thursday night if that makes any difference because I’ve noticed now other campers haven’t mentioned them. I don’t think I’ll be getting much sleep tonight if this continues.

What a quaint little spot in the city. Beautiful area to stay especially with kids, either overnight or a few days. Playground has a splash pad in the city park for the kids and yes there is trains that pass through but didn’t bother us at all/ or the kiddos. It is camping in their fairground section along the white fence , there is 30 and 50 amp electrical to hook up to and every other spot has water to hook up to also. The pay area is a box with envelopes and a deposit box, next to it is the wooden brown colored display of rules and map. We will definitely come here again when we pass through. P.s. take the long way around so you don’t get caught by the trains passing.

This is a first come/first served park. Electric sites are $15 per night, tent sites are $5 per night.
In addition to being the city park, it also serves as the Harrison County Fairgrounds. There is a self pay station near the large covered picnic shelter. There's easy access for larger rigs. The interior roads are asphalt. Upon entering the park, we weren't sure where to park, but chose to park alongside the white fence near the electric boxes since that area was mostly gravel. The electric box was on the other side of the fence. We had 50 amp service. There were no site numbers or numbers on the electric boxes that we saw. There are water faucets conveniently placed along the fence line, but not near the electric. There were no picnic tables or fire pits. There is a grassy area where I believe you can park also, but there was a “no parking” sign along that strip of grass the night we stayed. Although they were available, we didn't use the restrooms/showers or the dump station. There's no fenced pet area, but there's ample space to walk pets. There is a playground and a train for children. Verizon data and cell worked fine. There were trains that passed by, but they didn't bother us. We would stay again if passing through the area.
