“65 acre park developed in 1963”
This 165 acre park was developed in 1963 and is located four miles west of Dow City, Ia, Nelson Park provides picnicking, hiking, swimming, boating, fishing, and camping for all ages. Four separate campgrounds are available for the camper with shelter houses available for rental or on a first-come, first-served basis.
Spent one night here. Five miles off highway on really good roads. Found a few campsites at the entrance with a bathroom/shower biilding. Small pond with bass in it. DIdn't fish it. Continued up hill to an area of thirty campsites. Clean restroom and shower area. Camp sites were close together with electric hook ups. Water spickets in numerous spots in areas. Only three other campers but no other people. They must purchase the sites and park their campers there for the summer. The park was clean and filled with birds. Would definitely return if passing thru area.
