The Lost Island Campground has been a popular Waterloo getaway for years, hosting a large campground, lakeside, and waterpark. But now, it’s become possibly the biggest vacation destination in the Hawkeye State – opening a massive new amusement park in Iowa. The Lost Island Amusement Park debuted in the summer of 2022 for a shortened season without all of its rides open, but that was more than enough to let people get a thrilling glance at this new themed getaway. Based around a tropical island with five elemental realms, Lost Island is home to several thrilling roller coasters and one of the most innovative dark rides anywhere in the United States. As Lost Island prepares to open for its second season, you’ll definitely want to take this journey for yourself and brave the five realms!
