Clarks Ferry

Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers

New listing

Clarks Ferry is an outdoor lover's delight, with fantastic bird watching and lots of shore fishing from the new accessible fishing dock. The park has plenty of trees to lounge under while taking in the spectacular views of the mighty Mississippi River. Take the kids to one of the two playgrounds, play a game of horseshoes or volleyball, or go boating. The river draws crowds of anglers for channel catfish, bluegill, walleye, crappie and northern pike. Picnic tables, campfire rings and 50-amp electric hookups are provided at every campsite. A boat ramp, dump station and picnic shelter are also onsite. The park sits among large mature trees on the Iowa side of the Upper Mississippi — the section of the river that starts in the headwaters of Lake Itasca, Minnesota and flows 1,250 miles to Cairo, Illinois. Clarks Ferry is near the Shady Creek Recreation Area and Wildcat Den State Park.
