4 Reviews Add Review

County-managed University 40 provides full hookup camping with electric, water, and sewer connections at sites ranging from free to $25 per night. The campground accommodates both drive-in and walk-in access, with restrooms, showers, and picnic tables available for campers. Pets are welcome throughout the facility.

Located near Lohrville, this established campground serves as a base for exploring central Iowa's recreational opportunities. The combination of full utilities and county management creates a straightforward camping experience without extensive amenities or programming. Sites include the standard campfire rings, allowing evening gatherings when conditions permit.

Several campers have noted the campground's appeal to students and academic visitors, with one reviewer mentioning it as "a nice place, unusual and interesting, especially for students." The facility's proximity to educational institutions appears to draw this demographic regularly. Cell service availability varies across the campground according to visitor reports.

For additional camping options in the region, campers can explore places to camp around Lanesboro or consider nearby alternatives like Dickson Timber County Park. University 40 works well for RV travelers needing full hookups and tent campers comfortable with basic county park amenities.

Excellent!

It was a great time to spend in this camp and I hope that I can visit it once more this summer. I was only scared that I would miss some academic assignments during time I spent in the camp, but fortunately I found the good solution because need a professor to write my essays. I can share with you information concerning the writing service that helped me with my academic trouble. This agency is essaysprofessors.com that is reliable, cost-effective, and offered quality content. With their help, I was able to successfully complete my essay and get back on track with my academic career. I took it upon myself to spread the word, so that other students could benefit from the same quality service. I really think that thanks to my initiative, many students were able to step out of academic trouble and get back to focusing on their studies.

It's a nice place, unusual and interesting, especially for students. I spent a good time here, though I needed to do a lot of my assignments. The online nursing papers company helped me cope with them, and I was able to get rest. By the way, this company offers really good papers for reasonable prices.
