Me and my kids stayed at Upper Iowa Resort for 3 days in a tent. We absolutely LOVE it here and will be back!! The natural pool is awesome and I think the kids were in it 90% of the time, I personally love the sand bottom and that it gradually gets deeper.

Me and my kids stayed at Upper Iowa Resort for 3 days in a tent. We absolutely LOVE it here and will be back!! The natural pool is awesome and I think the kids were in it 90% of the time, I personally love the sand bottom and that it gradually gets deeper. We took the shuttle and tubed down the Upper Iowa river and the views are honestly unbeatable, will definitely have to kayak down during the fall. The restrooms are clean and the showers actually have pressure and hot water the entire time. The little office/shop has essentials at a very decent price! We honestly just loved our stay so much and can’t wait to come back, it really is a beautiful campground!

This place is amazing! I'm so glad we found it by mistake when our previously chosen campground was overbooked. This WILL be our regular campground going forward, and we highly recommend checking it out for yourself. It's perfect for families, and the owners/ staff are wonderful! Now, if I could leave a review for the parents of the disrespectful kids, I'd have more to say but the caretaker was q... This place is amazing!

Well, let me tell ya, Upper Iowa Resort is a little slice of heaven right here in the Driftless Region. We rolled in with a big ol' group and had ourselves one helluva time. That spring-fed swimming pool? It’s like findin’ a California beach, smack dab next to the Iowa River. Cool, clear, and just what the doctor ordered after a long day. I gotta give a shoutout to Tessa and her crew. They’re as... Well, let me tell ya, Upper Iowa Resort is a little slice of heaven right here in the Driftless Region. We rolled in with a big ol' group and had ourselves one helluva time. That spring-fed swimming pool? It’s like findin’ a California beach, smack dab next to the Iowa River. Cool, clear, and just what the doctor ordered after a long day. I gotta give a shoutout to Tessa and her crew. They’re as down-to-earth as they come, always ready to lend a hand or crack a smile. One day, we decided to float down the Iowa River in our innertubes, and wouldn’t ya know it, Tessa herself shuttled us upriver. Talk about service! Now, when we first got there, the wife was a bit uneasy about the lack of cell service—no bars in sight—but let me tell ya, it ended up bein’ the best thing ever. Nothin’ but us and the great outdoors, with no distractions. And if you do need to plug back in, the park’s free internet is fast as lightning, so you won’t miss a beat. Upper Iowa Resort is a real-deal treasure, and we’re mighty grateful to Tessa and the folks there for keepin’ this place runnin’ strong. If you’re lookin’ for a spot where the air’s fresh, the water’s cool, and the people are good as gold, this is it. We’ll be back for sure!
