Blackhawk Park Campground i USA

Campsite 48 west loop. Good roads. Good showers. Never stayed at a corp of engineers campsite I didn’t like. Not much of a view of the Mississippi from our site

Stayed in the southern loop of the park and it is very nice! The north loop ( sites #1-39) is rock road with quite a few pot holes and dusty. The southern most loop ( sites 40-73) seems to be the newest and has paved roads and very nice bathhouse. 30/50 amp power in southern loop not sure about northern loop. Grass mowed, clean and quite. Park was full when we stayed. Cell service is 3 plus bars with AT&T and Verizon.

Well paved road into Park takes you through a permanent trailer park that surely floods out each year. This is a fishing/hunting camp. Continue down the road into the usual well maintained and very nice COE C/G that has two sections. The older section is right on the river under tall Cottonwood trees. The newer sunnier C/G is across from the boat launch and on a navigatable backwater where you can keep your launched boat. Site pads are gravel, grass around the sites can be spotty if there was a large spring flood. Elec. at sites, water nearby, good double dump station at gate exit. There is a tent section that might be available to boondockers at a better price. Fire rings and tables are at the sites. Wood, bait and food necessities within walking distance in private section. Beautiful location on the Great River in the heart of River Bluff Country. It is a short drive to a larger city of LaCrosse, WI. or Winona, MN. Many picturesque small towns in the river hills nearby WI. MN and IA. Good eating, antiquing and vineyards are starting to spring up.

US Army Corp of Engineer campgrounds rarely disappoint and this one fit our needs! Our site was a back in with a great view of the Mississippi River. Only electric - no water or sewer hook ups. There is a water spigot to fill up your tank and a dump station. The sites are well spaced, some with trees and a bath house that we did not use. The campground is between a busy railroad line and the river with lots of barge traffic but surprisingly it was not noisy. The closest town is very small but you can cross the river into Iowa and there is a slightly larger city. I would recommend bringing any food you will need with you. There is a Lock & Dam station not far and it was a great place to visit and watch how the barges enter into the Lock.

Frozen pipes from last winter have them closed. Was advised by the camp host they will not be opened anytime soon.
