How about a weekend eating fresh caught fish tacos, lying on the beach, diving into cool refreshing water, and swinging in the hammock with a margarita in hand?

If you think you’d have to go to Mexico for this, you’ll be pleased to know that Pine Lake Campground has your back! Yup, you can do all of this in Iowa. The lake is stocked with catfish and bass, the beach is a lovely spot for a picnic, and the refreshing pine trees are more than sturdy enough to support your hammock. Now all you have to do is pack your tent. And maybe your sombrero too.

Sleep in an Iowa Barn @ TLC

Threshold Learning Center is 28 acres of prairie, creek, woods, and our barn dormitory. Threshold is first, an outdoor learning center for schools during the school year, and a summer camp offering several day camps, family camps, and trips.

We started renting TLC to the public 5 years ago for weddings, reunions, or just families who are looking to connect to the world around them. Our motto is "No Child Left Inside" and we want every inner child to enjoy what we have at TLC. We have 7 bedrooms in our dormitory, 5 camp sites, a large camp fire ring, a mini-golf course, and we are always willing to lead your group in an educational experience or take you on a hayrack ride.
