What campers say

Annie and Abel Van Meter State Park offers a scenic, well-kept small campground with about 18-21 sites suitable for tents and RVs; some sites offer water and electric while others are primitive. Trails and an interpretive cultural center are highlights, with several easy to moderate hikes and nice overlooks. The park is generally quiet, with wildlife active — birds and squirrels by day and nocturnal critters and distant coyotes at night. Facilities are basic and somewhat dated with limited flush toilets and a single shower each; sites can become muddy after heavy rain and bugs may be an issue. Hosts are typically helpful.
