The Massive Family Campground In Iowa That’s The Size Of A Small Town
Iowa is home to 947 cities (thanks to the fact that everything here is a city!), and more than half of them have fewer than 500 residents. In fact, some of our favorite towns (Balltown, St. Donatus, and Silver City) have fewer than 250 residents! That means that it’s not hard to find Iowa campgrounds that are bigger than many Iowa small towns… but how many campgrounds could exist on their own, with enough entertainment and amenities to keep your family happy without having to leave the resort? We can think of one that’s certainly worth a visit – Sleepy Hollow Campground!
The Sleepy Hollow Campground and RV Park is located at 3340 Black Hawk Ave. NW, Oxford, IA 52322.
The Sleepy Hollow Campground (now called Beyonder Getaway at Sleepy Hollow) is a lovely place to spend time with the family and enjoy the outdoors. When was the last time you enjoyed a weekend of camping in Iowa? Tell us about your last camping adventure with a comment.
