Bridgeview (rathbun Lake)
Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers
New listing
Bridgeview Park is located on beautiful Rathbun Lake, just 13 miles northwest of Centerville, Iowa. Camping, boating, swimming, fishing and picnicking are popular activities at this waterfront recreation area. This large campground offers 106 family sites, 95 of which have electric hookups. A day-use group picnic shelter for up to 24 people is also available. Amenities include flush and pit toilets, showers, drinking water, a dump station, boat ramp, playground and horseshoe pits. This location is unstaffed. The 11,000-acre lake provides a variety of fishing opportunities for any angler; crappie, channel catfish, walleye and largemouth bass are most common. Whether power boating or sailing, Rathbun Lake, also known as Iowa's Ocean, has something to offer everyone — in particular, the water's prevailing winds make it one of the best sailing lakes in Iowa. Rathbun Lake is situated in the gently rolling hills of the Chariton River Valley in southeast Iowa, and the campground consists of open grassy areas dotted with trees. Bald eagles, white-tailed deer, Canada geese, wild turkey and other wildlife can be found at Rathbun Lake. Southern Iowa's only Off Highway Vehicle Park is just three miles from the campground, located on the south bank of the South Fork Chariton River and encompassing nearly 125 acres of an abandoned rock quarry. The Rathbun Fish Hatchery is located near the main dam and offers self-guided tours Monday through Friday year-round; hundreds of thousands of catfish and walleye are produced here each year.
