McIntosh Woods State Park is a wish-upon-a-star campground that’s an oasis among the busy agricultural and industrial districts that populate the Ventura, Iowa area. This Mason City, IA campground is on a peninsula that juts into a lake that is renowned for its fishing and boating opportunities.
McIntosh Woods State Park has the premier boat dock on Clear Lake together with an extensive paved area to park towed rigs and boat trailers. The extensive sandy beach provides another access point to the lake. A one-mile wildlife trail is great for a family hike to observe nature at its core
“We always look for places to camp that get us into nature and this campground was a wonderful surprise after seeing to many farming fields on hwy 35. Huge towering trees surrounded our campsite as well as lush green grass.” -Celeste, TripAdvisor Review
