👍👍 Love this place. There are several areas around the edge of the water where you can fish. I’ve seen a lot of people on kayaks, but I haven’t done it myself.

Lake Wapello State Park
State park
👍 First, if you are here for fishing I can't say anything about that. I went here for hiking. I gave it a 4 stars because it only has 1 loop to walk/hike on. So the posted 6.6 mile hike around the lake turned to about 7 miles if you include the road areas. If you want to take the hike around I would h...

Honey Creek State Park
State park
👍👍 Honey Creek Campground at Honey Creek State Park is on Lake Rathbun, one of the largest lakes in Iowa. My wife's and my experience has been that state campgrounds, especially the newer (or remodeled) tend to have a "tract home" vibe. We were pleased to discover Honey Creek to feel less sterile, in f...
