In the heart of the Amana Colonies, there’s a campground that’s not just spacious – it’s huge. The Amana RV Park & Event Center is a sprawling Iowa campground in the Iowa River Valley that’s perfect for a getaway – it’s in a great location, has plenty of amenities and there’s a ton of room to stretch out.

Here’s why the Amana RV Park is a town-like campground you simply have to visit.

The campground is located near Amana, about 20 minutes from Cedar Rapids and Iowa City and it’s in a beautiful rural location. It was originally created for the World AG Expo in 1988. This is the view of the southwest side of the park.
