This property has 4 camp spots. Sites 1 and 4 have a boat landing. All sites have shades trees that can hold hammocks. All sites are right next to the lake. Site 3 has a dock that all can use. There is excellent swimming with a sandy bottom at the south end of the lake. The lake is stocked with perch in 2024 but has walleye, northern, bass as well. It is also close to many lakes that are good for fishing. I have a 14' fishing boat with trolling motor, a paddle boat, 2 kayaks, and canoe for campers to use for free. Firewood is available for $5/day. There is some hiking on the property and much near by. Biking is also good with small lakes nearby to visit.

The best camping near Gull Point State Park guide

Overview

About

Summer is the absolute best time to head to the lakes region of northwest Iowa, and at Gull Point State Park, you can head out on West Okoboji Lake for some serious sailing, paddling, boating, and fishing. Plentiful game fish will give you a run for your money, and the Gull Point Campground is one of the most popular in the area. Planning a part or rockin’ reunion? Rent the Gull Point Lodge, a huge facility with a kitchen and dining hall that will seat 140 happy picnickers. Do something different this year and get wet and wild in Iowa.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Gull Point State Park is during the warm summer months when the park is in full bloom and the lake's waters invite for a swim. Spring and fall offer cooler temperatures and fewer crowds, perfect for those seeking solitude. Winters can be harsh, with snow limiting access to certain areas, making it less ideal for a visit.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
  • Be aware of any park alerts or closures by visiting the official state park website.
  • Accessibility varies across different areas of the park; inquire ahead if you require special accommodations.
  • Pack essentials like water, sunscreen, and insect repellent to enhance your park visit.
  • Remember to leave no trace and dispose of trash responsibly to preserve the park's natural beauty.
