Nestled in the shade of giant bur oak trees, Shady Oaks is a restful retreat.

Shady Oaks is one of the oldest private campgrounds in Iowa (since 1850). It's story has been documented in the book "Quarter Mile Link." In 1996, as part of the Sesquicentennial celebration, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources named our stand of namesake trees to the Register of "Famous & Historic Trees."

On the old Lincoln Highway (Shady Oaks Rd.), Shady Oaks Campground is 1/4 mile north of Highway 30 just three miles east of Marshalltown. The Mesquaki Casino is only 10 miles away.

There are 13 RV sites with full hookups. All 13 sites offer 30-amp service, and 5 of them also offer 50-amp service. Five sites are drive-on (back-off) sites for motor coaches (40-foot units). Those sites can also serve back-in units under certain circumstances. Most other sites accommodate 30-foot plus units.

We do not offer tent camping as there is no toilet or showerhouse facility. Self-contained RV campers only.

Call (641) 752-2946 for reservations.
