Secluded riverside ranch

3 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents15 acres · Goldfield, IA

This property encompasses 15 acres featuring a mile of mowed trails that weave through wildflower prairies, along a meandering creek, peaceful woods along the river, and a 501(c)(3) animal rescue providing sanctuary to goats, a llama, a miniature cow, an ostrich and more! The perfect place to unwind, unplug, and connect with nature in a private setting, not on a gravel pad at a treeless, overcrowded campground.

Fuller Getaway

1 site · RV, Tent4 acres · Bristow, IA

We live on 4.74 acres on Highway 3. We live 2 miles from Rolling Prairie bike trailhead. We have a swing gazebo that we love to share. We currently have a 30 amp hookup that can be used. Our campsite is a pull through so you don't even have to backup. Our little place is a work in progress always trying to make it better.

We are located in a very small farming community about 15 miles south of Interstate 90 in North Central Iowa. We have 3 sites available. All are full hookup. Our trees have been trimmed, our road is nice and wide, and there is plenty of room to maneuver. There is a restaurant across the street with great food (Buckets Bar & Grill) and don't miss the tack, leather, and shoe shop downtown that will turn 100 years old in 2025. Gruis recreation and golf course is 10 miles straight south. Winnebago Industries in Forest City Iowa is 30 miles away and they offer free daily tours. Camp Algona POW Museum and nativity is 30 miles away and The Grotto of the Redemption in West Bend Iowa is 50 miles away. ***We are very flexible so if something doesnt fit your plans quite right, please ask about it.
