Lake of the Three Fires || RV Midwest || Explore Iowa || Sn. 1 || Ep. 4
Sometimes a trip doesn't go exactly as you planned. You might have to make the best of a not so great situation. And that's okay!
In this episode we traveled to Lake of the Three Fires near Bedford, Iowa. We contended with a lake full of algae and a boil order for the campgrounds water supply. It threw a curve ball in our plans for sure! But, we made the best of it and found a beautiful lake nearby to go play in!

Dolliver Memorial State Park Boneyard Hollow Finale - Fort Dodge, Iowa
Boneyard Hollow
This narrow ravine running between rock walls was given its name boneyard hollow by early settlers who found large amounts of buffalo bones in the canyon. It is possible the area's first inhabitants drove herds of buffalo from the prairie over the cliff to their death or perhaps drove the herds into the narrow ravine and then killed & butchered them for their meat, hides, horns & bone.
In 1912, a family picnicking in the area of the creek that runs through Boneyard Hollow found a lead tablet at the mouth of the creek. Inscribed in Latin, it stated that it was deposited in 1701 by Father Hennepin, a French explorer, often credited with discovering the Des Moines River. The tablet was eventually found to be a hoax, planted by people from the nearby community. However, Edgar Harlan, then curator of the state archives, went to the site where the tablet was found. His interest in the beauty of the area helped spark the state's interest in eventually purchasing the park.

Winterset City Park Campground is located in the county seat of Madison County made famous by a 90's era book and movie glorifying an extra marital affair by a rural farm wife seduced by a dashing urban journalist. Despite the message of the movie the name is what sticks around, The Bridges of Madison County. One of those bridges is located right in this park as is an old looking stone bridge, a stone lookout tower, a couple miles of hiking and biking trails, playgrounds, ball fields, and a hedge maze.
Guests can easily walk in to the downtown area to visit the National Quilting Museum or the birthplace of John Wayne. Guests can also venture out to tower the other covered bridges in the area.
A grass tent area is available in a shaded setting. Two bath houses are available and do double as storm shelters. An onsite camphost helps manage sites and sell firewood. All the pull thru sites are partial hookups while some of the backins provide full hookups. Sites share a water spigot.
