Whitebreast Camp
Hosted by US Army Corps of Engineers
New listing
Whitebreast Camp is located on Lake Red Rock, Iowa's largest lake. It is just 10 minutes from Pella, known for its Dutch heritage, and 15 minutes from Knoxville, the Sprint car capital of the world. Visitors enjoy boating, fishing, hiking, biking and viewing wildlife. This large campground offers 132 campsites and two group sites, all with either 30 or 50-amp electric hookups. Amenities include flush and pit toilets, showers, drinking water, a dump station and boat ramp. Younger campers love the park's playgrounds, and the Whitebreast Beach is nearby. Two day use picnic shelters are also located within the Whitebreast Camp area: the Whitebreast Point shelter, a conventional open shelter, and the Miner's Retreat, a small enclosed shelter. Lake Red Rock offers excellent boating, water skiing and swimming opportunities, and miles of water trails for kayakers and canoeists are designated along the shoreline. Anglers will find crappie, walleye, largemouth and striped bass, channel and flathead catfish, northern pike and bluegill. Several miles of trails for hiking and biking are in the area, and the 15 mile paved Volksweg Trail stretches west from Pella to the Des Moines River and to the Cordova Recreation Area. Lake Red Rock is situated on the Des Moines River. Hardwood forests cover the lake shore at Whitebreast, offering shade and scenic views, and wildlife is abundant around the lake. A wide variety of waterfowl, including the American White Pelican, migrates through the area in spring and fall, and bald eagles can be observed from November through March. White-tailed deer, turkeys and other small animals are commonly viewed around the lake. Des Moines, Iowa's capital, is an hour away, with numerous shopping and dining opportunities, museums and the Blank Park Zoo.
